Professions

• Enchanting
  • Vendors have purchased so many Enchanted Writhebark Wands that they are now offering a lower price for them.
• Engineering
  • [With weekly restarts] Piece of Scrap is now always granted on successful Tinker usage for specialized engineers (except for Tinker: Arclight Vital Correctors and Tinker: Grounded Circuitry).
  • [With weekly restarts] Tinker: Plane Displacer now lasts between 15 and 18 seconds (was 12 and 18 seconds) and correctly places potions on a 5 minute cooldown (was 10 minutes).
  • [With weekly restarts] Aspects of Tinker and Bomb malfunctions have been redesigned or retuned:
    • Safety Component optional reagents are now always discovered when Tinkers malfunction.
    • Significantly reduced the damage dealt from explosion malfunctions.
    • Success chance no longer scales with Engineering Skill. The amount this granted has been made baseline.
    • Success chance granted from casting item quality has been halved, the amount lost has been made baseline.
    • Success chance granted from Specialization nodes has been doubled.
    • Maximum amount of success chance for Engineers remains unchanged. Non-engineers can achieve a slightly higher value than previously.
    • Tinker: Arclight Vital Correctors now has a slight bonus to success chance for Engineers, with its maximum success chance equal to the Shadowlands variant.
      • Developers’ note: There are multiple avenues of progression to increase your gadget success chance in Dragonflight, and the difference between a newbie Engineer and an experienced tinker is substantial. However, it is clear that the gameplay did not support the fantasy and instead resulted in mostly frustrating experiences. These adjustments are intended to address many of those pain-points while maintaining the feeling of progressive mastery. While we will not be sharing exact values, we would also like to clarify that an Engineer with all 4 Safety specialization nodes and a Quality 3 tinker will reach the maximum success chance and do not need to use the Calibrated Safety Switch optional reagent. We will look for opportunities to make this system more transparent in future patches. Thank you all for your feedback!
• Jewelcrafting
  • Sundered Onyx Loupe and Chromatic Focus have had their recipe difficulty corrected to their intended values.

Quests

• To make “The Fifth Challenge of Tyr” more enjoyable and group friendly, the following adjustments have been made:
  • The amount of progress awarded for using Irideus’ Power Core on Elite denizens of Tyrhold was increased to 35% (was 20%), meaning that you only need to use it 3 times (was 5).
  • 4 more enemies were added as viable targets for Irideus’ Power Core: Ancient Protector, Phenran, Overloading Defense Matrix, and Overseer Stonetongue.
  • Irideus’ Power Core’s cast time has been reduced to 1.5 second (was 3 seconds).
