Don’t ya just LOVE it when when Shadow weaving also stacks from non shadow damage abilities like psychic scream? Me too! Such amazing quality from blizzard, its like they got it 100% legit perfect on the first try, in before the white knights defending blizzards honor, these are the bugs they have fixed so far, and admitted they have not produced a flawless reproduction of vanilla wow. Classic is fun, but it still needs a lot of work before its up to the vanilla standard.
Following up on this, we’ve issued a hotfix to resolve this and buff stacking should be back to normal.
I’d also like to remind everyone in this thread to read our Bug Report Forum Guidelines and remain on-topic when discussing potential bugs. Any posts or threads that are off-topic or disruptive to the goal of helping us identify and reproduce bugs will be removed.
Hi Eggerwhat,
We are aware of this issue and it is definitely not intended. This bug was introduced as part of another fix we deployed yesterday for performance issues related to Rallying Cry of the Dragonslayer.
We are working on a hotfix to resolve this now and we hope to have it deployed very soon.
Thank you for the reports!
About 14 hours ago, we deployed a hotfix that should have addressed Vanish.
Basically, Vanish should cause enemies to drop target, and we had a bug that was preventing them from dropping target. We fixed the bug.
There are still intended conditions in which enemies can “see through” Vanish, of course. (Example: the Bloodhounds in BRD)
As this hotfix required server restarts to take effect, we expect that it is now working as intended on realms in the Americas, and will be picked up with main…
The hotfix described above is now live in this region, and will be applied during maintenance in other regions with their maintenance.
Paladins should no longer lose stacks of Reckoning if they are not facing their target or are out of range to attack the target when the Reckoning stacks are gained.
Good news! I’m all done with fishing puns!
Better news! With this morning’s restarts, and subsequent restarts in each region, we believe this issue (and a bunch of other stuff) will be fixed!
Enjoy, and let us know if you see it again.
Hi All,
We have identified a fix for an issue that was causing Demoralizing Shout/Roar to generate too much threat when applied to multiple enemies. In addition, we’ve also identified a fix for a separate issue that was causing Battle Shout and most healing spells, effects, and buffs to incorrectly split the threat they generate between enemies that had members of the buffed party on their threat list.
Hotfixes for these issues are going to be deployed very soon, at which time all of these effects will match their functionality in the 1.12 reference client.
