War Within and Season of Discovery Hotfixes: April 30th

Staff's Avatar by Staff

We have a big batch of hotfixes today with retail and SoD.

There’s a lot of class fixes and changes in patch 11.1.5, for Rogues and Warlocks especially. There’s also a Fate of the Kirin Tor quest and Darkflame Cleft fix.

Over in SoD Phase 8 we have more raid tuning for the Scarlet Enclave, as well as a Paladin fix and more.

Quests

  • Resolved an issue preventing looting the quest object after another player looted it first in “Preserve the Legacy” from the Fate of the Kirin Tor questline.

Season of Discovery

  • Lucky Doubloon now has a small 1.5 second cooldown, even if you flip heads to clear the cooldown on the item. This is to prevent it from being flipped multiple times unintentionally.
  • The Quartermaster’s Crate is now provided upon acceptance of “Prove Your Worth” from Bryon Steelblade.
  • Classes
    • Paladin
      • The Avenging Shield buff granted from the Scarlet Enclave 6-piece set bonus for Protection Paladins correctly lasts the same duration as Avenging Wrath.
  • Scarlet Enclave
    • There are now 3 Torn Pages containing Torn Diary Pages in them in Scarlet Enclave. These should be lootable by and tradable to players who were present for the Reborn Council encounter. Torn Pages should no longer disappear if there is a soft reset after the Reborn Council but before Lillian Voss.
    • Berserk Timers for all bosses, except Caldoran, have been increased to 10 minutes.
    • Caldoran will now Berserk 6 minutes after Phase 2 begins (was 5 minutes after).
    • The aggro radiuses of the Reborn Council have been lowered to allow for easier prepositioning before pulling the boss.
