  • Fixed an issue causing Vicious Flasks to be removed when entering Arena Skirmishes.
  • Several class pet nameplates for guardians and other temporary summons are now hidden in PvP.

    Unironically the Hammer of Light bug felt pretty good and thematically in line with how "Templar" plays, without being too broken. Honestly I initially thought the bug was fixing the talent, and not the other way around. Sad to see it go so soon.

    yeah there are lots of issues with that dungeon. from pathing/los issues to flying issues. I think it's safe to say that unless it gets some major fucking fixes next week that will be one to avoid until later in the season.

    Aww. I genuinely thought it was on purpose. It felt nice. Quick to "fix" this, but only gonna fix the bad stuff in next patch. Not like they couldn't at least deploy the 20% healing buff, no no. THAT will have to wait at least 2 months.

    Yeah there are several threads keeping a running list of them on the official bug report forums because there are not only multiple different bugs, but many of them are consistent in most/all runs.

    It urgently needed a fix before zeros today and especially before keys next week.

    Wowhead are the last ones i would trust when it comes to balance.
    Also blizzard already said that the first big balancing changes are coming next reset (with mythic release).
    Also also; Bm hunter will survive a patch of not being the best (hunter) spec.
