Staff's Avatar by Staff

We have a chunky batch of hotfixes today. Starting with a fix for the Druid Manaforge: Omega 4-set, we also have quest and item improvements, Loom’ithar fixes and more. But the big news is Blizzard turning off deaths affecting the timer in Mythic +2 and +3 dungeons!


Classes

  • Druid
    • Elune’s Chosen: Fixed an issue with the Ornaments of the Mother Eagle (4) Set Bonus that frequently prevented the set’s Starsurges from splitting to nearby targets.

Creatures and NPCs

  • Fixed an issue that could diminish client performance while engaging Reshanor, the Untethered.
  • Fixed an issue causing Kelp from Kelpmire to persist if the player was immune to roots when hit with Kelpsplosion!

Dungeons and Raids

  • Player deaths in Mythic+2 and +3 keystones no longer reduces the timer or displays a death count in the objective window.
  • Manaforge Omega
    • Loom’ithar
      • Resolved an issue that caused Loom’ithar to stop tracking the player during the cast of Piercing Strand if they transformed.
      • Resolved an issue that caused Loom’ithar to face the wrong player or direction when Piercing Strand was cast.
      • Resolved an issue preventing damage reduction effects applied to Loom’ithar to modify the damage of Piercing Strand.
