WoW Classic Hotfixes -- Updated November 16

[Xyshina-incendius]

Same thing happens with Druids and Ferocious Bite.

Ferocious Bite is cast and the initial Energy cost is deducted. Then, on the next batch tick, your remaining energy is reduced to 0. However, if you gain any energy prior to that second batch tick it is also lost.

I have very often seen my energy go 45 -> 10 -> 30 -> 0 after having used Ferocious Bite.

yep - quite obnoxious, have to carefully time bites with energy ticks during raids as Feral.

I’ve updated the OP here with recent Classic hotfixes:

January 7, 2020

• Somnus will no longer become stuck evading when he is kited a great distance.
• Fixed a bug that caused /stopattack and /startattack macros to pause the swing timer (rather than reset it) when used with abilities such as Slam.

Really? Rouge players are going to be sad.

It’s 2020 now

Also, when is our BWL update going to happen? @Kaivax

Doin’ some time travelling here.

Fast Fix to the Slam thing but still no word on execute being double batched?

See:

Execute trigger delay is doubled compared to vanilla

Some background first; the way Execute works in vanilla and classic is in two stages. When you cast Execute the damage of the skill is calculated including the excess rage, the cost of the skill itself is deducted immediately (15 rage untalented), the Execute damage is applied at the next batch tick and then a server-side script runs which after a delay reduces your remaining rage to 0. Additional bug reports from warriors indicated that any rage generated during this trigger window is lost once…

They’ve very clearly given up. it’s full steam ahead with 8.3 and Shadowlands.

[Wokyry-grobbulus]

The only thing I would say about hunters, is they are practically the easiest class to level. Having such a hard time levelling my next alt.

I know people want hunters buffed for PvP, because they are the worst PvPers in the game, but they do have a lot of redeeming qualities.

[Raypugh-blaumeux]

U guys wanna fuking fix how broken feign death is at the moment?

[Ymira-illidan (Ymira)]

It’s prolly the batching system that is messing FD and they have no clue how to fix it without breaking batching.

[Swanq-heartseeker]

batching is already so scuffed that breaking batching might be an improvement.

[Pswazy-ashkandi]

Vanish is garbage too.

[Moediggz-heartseeker]

bwl update is what we wanted…

[Gythriel-windseeker]

They have not said anything yet regarding when BWL would be out.
But this is the hotfix thread

[Baidu-faerlina]

Fixed a bug that caused /stopattack and /startattack macros to pause the swing timer (rather than reset it) when used with abilities such as Slam

how is this a “bug”? without it the ability of Slam is just gonna be useless.

It was available in vanilla , why was it not “fixed” back then? guess why ?
because it is a dps style and not breaking any balance of the game !

Thanks for the hotfix, unsubscribe.

[Gythriel-windseeker]

I hear i wont affect your mage too much.

[Apsalar-yojamba]

That Slam fix was unnecessary.

God forbid an ability becomes usable…

[Forum-azshara]

Judas, calm down.

[Prekums-yojamba]

Are blizzard planning to do anything with the current state of AV? or does every single post on the WoW classic discussion page go ignored.

[Coldness-faerlina]

#NOCHANGES works fine

Also, whatsup with BWL announce? we got plenty of ppl who realy tired of AV queueing guys, hope time that u got is enough to push amazing stuff to us.
