  • Rebalanced Dragonrider’s Cultivation, increasing the amount to 400% (from 10%) and reducing the duration to 3 sec (from 10 sec). This should provide more of a bonus for those that like to gather on the go.

Dungeons and Raids
  • Halls of Valor
    • Adjusted the visual of Sanctify cast by Hyrja in Halls of Valor.
  • Mythic+
    • Azure Vaults
      • Fixed an issue where being hit with Thundering while on the translocation path would cause you to repeat the path.
    • Shadowmoon Burial Grounds
      • Ner’zhul
        • Fixed an issue causing Ritual of Bones to regenerate health during combat.
    • Temple of the Jade Serpent
      • Wise Mari
        • Wise Mari will now die immediately and grant players credit for the encounter upon defeat.
      • Lorewalker Stonestep
        • Intensity damage decreased 40%.
        • Agony damage decreased by 40%.
        • Fixed an issue causing the healing bonus from Feeling of Superiority to increase per stack Fixed an issue causing Feeling of Superiority to be able to spread to multiple targets.
          • Developers’ note: We are lowering the damage output of Peril and Strife to account for fixing a bug that was causing the healing increase of Feeling of Superiority to increase per stack.

Items and Rewards
  • Fixed an issue with the Hood of Surging Time where the Haste given would be lower than intended if the player’s pet attacked the new target first.

    Well done Blizzard. The Dragonrider's Cultivation is a great change!

    If they keep these WEEKLY changes going then this is looking very promising.

    Did they also change the internal cooldown of Cultivation? It was 30sec, and tbh the greater hurdle.

    Kinda makes the other option seem like a joke in comparison, even for non-gatherers.

    May someone please explain what the issue was with Feeling of Superiority and how the fix affects it? I don't understand the issue.

    There was never an ICD. It's just 10% over 10 sec was so pitifully small it was unnoticeable

    No, as Herbalist on Main I can confirm, there definitely was an ICD until it could proc again, someone even wrote a WA to track that.

    Sadly still at work, so I can't test whether there is still an ICD.

    The main issue for gatherers was that they kinda had to stop often to gather, which was a large drain on vigor. If you don't have to gather, you have to stop less often.
    And given that it's pretty much impossible to run out of vigor if you keep flying, that's a non-issue

    Can't really give them praise for the Dragonrider’s Cultivation change seeing as it should have only taken a single tester to point out how horrible the old skill was. 10% vigor regen bonus was basically nothing. Pretty much all gatherings take off after collecting so there's no regen in the air, so that 10% is an even extra nothing. And of course they put it on an ICD, so it was an extra *extra* nothing.

    No idea how the hell that even made it to beta, let alone 2 months into the expansion.

    They are to busy hiring VPs of wokeness and pushing political agenda to worry about making a good game.

    Took them forever to update that Wise Mari fight, but they still can't be bothered to fix the RFK Spirit Totem boss fight huh.
