Appreciated but people told you to take a look at these bosses ages ago. Those abilities were ridiculous. Why did it take you a year to nerf these clearly overtuned mechanics?
Heya! Here are today’s hotfixes:
JUNE 9, 2022
Dungeons and Raids
-
Developer’s note: With the following hotfixes, our goal is to address circumstances in Shadowlands dungeons where enemy spells could be cast on nearby melee targets when their current target moved out of range, sometimes leading to unfair player deaths.
-
De Other Side
- Fixed an issue that would cause Territorial Bladebeak and Bladebeak Matriarch’s Beak Slice to be cast on a nearby target if their current target was out of range.
-
Halls of Atonement
- Fixed an issue that would cause Depraved Darkblade’s Deadly Thrust to be cast on a nearby target if their current target was out of range.
-
Mists of Tirna Scithe
- Fixed an issue that would cause Mistveil Matriarch’s Shred Armor to be cast on a nearby target if their current target was out of range.
-
Tazavesh: So’leah’s Gambit
- Fixed an issue that would cause Burly Deckhand’s Haymaker to be cast on a nearby target if their current target was out of range.
- Increased the cast time of Haymaker to 1.5 seconds (was 0.75 seconds).
-
Theater of Pain
- Fixed an issue that would cause Ancient Captain’s Shield Bash to be cast on a nearby target if their current target was out of range.
-
De Other Side
-
Karazhan
- Fixed an issue where players in Cross-Faction groups could play the Chess Event against each other and prevent victory.
Quests

…why does this sound like a fun concept for a battleground?
This will be very well appreciated by people - it’s been a hotbutton topic on the forums this past week.
That’s a lot of dungeon tuning in one week. Next add some loot to them. I don’t think people are annoyed by them because once a season you get an unexpected bird peck. It’s mostly that people stopped caring about anima about a year ago.
Into the Dunes is still broken.
It’s hotfix time~

May I ask: what was the philosophy behind trying to add these kinds of mechanics?
I’m not at all being snarky or anything, but it just seemed weird to randomly get wacked by a tank hitter as a melee champ
I just did a DoS, and before all these changes I never once got randomly pecked like the hotfix notes imply they were trying to stop. This time I just kept getting pecked and pecked and pecked while the tank was kiting with no aggro. It is worded like they removed it, but it barely existed before, and now it happens constantly lol
That’s great you’re fixing problems in dungeons but Fury Warriors are still doing unhealable damage while constantly healing themselves in PvP and next to nothing is being done about it.
Here are the hotfixes from today:
JUNE 13, 2022
Achievements
- Credit for the Path of Ascension achievement To the Moon should now be granted consistently.
Dungeons and Raids
-
Sepulcher of the First Ones
-
Rygelon
- Fixed an issue where players could incidentally consume two Collapsing Quasar Fields that overlap.
-
Rygelon
Quests
- Fixed an issue where the “The Catalyst Awakens” would sometimes not complete when interacting with the Creation Catalyst.
- Players should now always be able to see the Twisted Gateway to enter the scenario for “Fangs of the Devourer.”

It would be really nice if y’all would fix the two recent issues that have popped up…
Halondrus, phase 3, several graphics issues (even reported on Wowhead) that make the fight damn near impossible, as the mechanics go invisible…
Any hunter that targets a boss, immediately auto-shots and enter combat. without the player actually meaning to engage. Very frustrating to players who like to be ready to go when the pull timer is up 
Would appreciate these raid hot fixes ASAP!

All looks good to me. What about account bound reputations? I have like 10 alts with rep split everywhere. It’s kinda annoying at this point.

Hello! Here is the hotfix from today and the raid encounter adjustments that will be available after weekly maintenance this week:
JUNE 20, 2022
Dungeons and Raids
-
Sepulcher of the First Ones
- Developers’ note: We’ve heard feedback that several encounters in Sepulcher of the First Ones would benefit from adjustments, as they’re too difficult due to punishing mechanics, and we want to further reduce the likelihood that those mechanics can quickly cause an unrecoverable wipe.
We have also received feedback that the Lihuvim encounter was too constrained due to the difficulty of some of the Automa, so we wanted to make adjustments to open the possibility of different strategies to players. - The following raid adjustments will be made with this week’s scheduled weekly maintenance:
-
Lihuvim
- Lihuvim health reduced by 15% on Mythic difficulty.
- Resonance Cascade damage reduced by 90% on Mythic difficulty.
- Increased the cooldown of Guardian Automa’s Form Sentry Automa on Mythic difficulty.

- Planetcracker Beam damage reduced by 65% and its damage occurs less frequently on Mythic difficulty.
-
Anduin Wrynn
- Hopelessness and Overconfidence duration increased to 16 seconds on all difficulties (was 12 seconds).
- Blasphemy will no longer be triggered when coming in contact with an unmarked player on Mythic difficulty. The tooltip will reflect this change in a future patch.
- March of the Damned damage reduced by 75% on all difficulties.
- Soul Explosion damage and travel speed reduced by 30% on all difficulties.
- Banish Soul cast time increased to 16 seconds on Mythic difficulty (was 12 seconds).

- Chains of Anguish will no longer reposition linked targets when the primary target moves out of range on Mythic difficulty.
