We have our first batch of hotfixes for MoP Classic! We’ve already covered the increased spawn and drop rates for the two problematic quests. Then there’s the big PvP changes. The Season 12 Honor Vendor has arrived, adding a lot of gear earlier than the original, with some gear that wasn’t available at all. There’s also dungeon improvements and other changes as well.
Mists of Pandaria Classic
- Spawn rates and item drop rates for “They’re So Thorny!” and “Forensic Science” have been significantly increased.
- The Season 12 PvP Honor Vendor is now available so that players can spend Honor.
- Honor Vendors correctly have their PvP weapon lists attached.
- All Conquest Weapons correctly require a Season total for Conquest earned.
- Motes of Harmony are not available through Honor or Conquest until a future patch.
- Developers’ notes: In original Mists of Pandaria, PvP gear was not added to the Honor Vendors until Arena Season 12 started. In MoP Classic, we’ve added PvP gear to these vendors early, so you can use Honor to buy PvP gear in the offseason/preseason, ahead of next week’s Arena Season start. Dreadful Gladiator Honor PvP Weapons were never available during Season 12 in original Mists of Pandaria. We feel these weapons are a great steppingstone for PvP activities.
- Player flight speed is no longer reduced in Netherwing Ledge.
- The Kor’kron War Wolf will now correctly appear as the intended color in the Mount Journal.
- Dungeons
- Fixed an issue that caused items from Siege of Boralus and Bloodmaul Slag Mines to display the wrong item level when previewed in the Dungeon Journal.
- Jade Temple
- Fixed an issue that would occasionally cause Wise Mari’s bubble to fail to burst after Corrupted Living Water was killed.
- Temple of the Jade Serpent will now correctly grant the achievement for completing it on Heroic.
