typo!

[Rioo]

"Twilight Elite Dreadblades and Twilight Elite Slayers should now refrain from doing melee attacks while mounted, and always engage and melee players after landing on the gunship deck."

Thank fuck for that!

[Keleri]

Darkmoon Faire Players should now be able to complete the quests "The Captured Journal" and "The Enemy's Insignia" after having completed them in a previous month. Would have been nice to have this in before DMF ended but I'm glad it will work next month.

[Thecookiekillers]

Exactly.. wasted points there..

[Agetro]

I wish the dreadblades/slayers wouldn't do point-blank charges

[Xellent]

Better late than never i guess.

[Xalden]

Huzza for even more buffs for hunter! I guess this will finally even us out with the other buffs.

[thunderdragon2]

hmmintresting is the 2 hander still worth going after for ret?

[Deleted]

I do hope they re-fix Seal of Truth as it no longer can proc landslide/windwalk and trinkets.. Funny thing is Seal Of truth still procs shadowmourne so it seems they nerfed Seal of Truth with cata items only.. ARGHHHH

[Deleted]

no longer have a chance to proc twice for paladins with Seal of Truth active, no chance to proc twice by Seal of Truth or no proc from Seal of Truth?

[Bahska]

Still WTB Wild Growth fix so it targets Full HP targets again.

[Shadowfury]

I wish the dreadblades/slayers wouldn't do point-blank charges

This Or maybe make their hitbox abit larger,it would help(for mele's).

[mentally vexed]

no longer have a chance to proc twice for paladins with Seal of Truth active, no chance to proc twice by Seal of Truth or no proc from Seal of Truth?

no proc from SoT

[retpally]

Gurthalak was granting bonuses to all 3 2H melee classes, yet the bonus was taken away from ret and ret alone. Warrior's Gurth bonus is that the proc works with their mastery and inflated crit values. DK's Gurth bonus is that the proc scales with their mastery. Ret's Gurth "bonus" was a very small chance to possibly proc the tentacle more often, which is basically what Gurth does with the Arms warrior strike mastery (who already have insane damage output in DS). If Gurth is intended to be the only i416 2H weapon in the game, why does it support bonuses for DKs and warriors while at the same time denying ret any kind of bonus and, on top of that, guaranteeing a much lower proc rate than either DKs or warriors? The problem is the sword, not the spec. Fix the weapon to be even between DKs, warriors, and paladins.

happy hunter here

[Mr. Smith]

Souldrinker and Gurthalak, Voice of the Deeps no longer have a chance to proc twice for paladins with Seal of Truth active.

It's Bryntroll all over again.

[Herself]

Darkmoon Faire Players should now be able to complete the quests "The Captured Journal" and "The Enemy's Insignia" after having completed them in a previous month. Would have been nice to have this in before DMF ended but I'm glad it will work next month.

There was a thread with several blue posts and an MMO Champion post regarding this posted BEFORE the end of the faire. It had specific instructions to contact support for ticket reimbursement. Using the link provided I got my tickets in under an hour.

They did what they could and they fixed it for next month. I'm sure the ticket reimbursement still stands. Submit a ticket.

[Tannon]

Huzza for even more FIXES for hunter! I guess this will finally even us out with the other buffs.

Fixed that for you...
These are not buffs, they are simply bugs and errors that were completely overlooked regarding hunters to begin with... But then again I was not overly surprised.

weapon got destroyed for ret, now they have half the procrate of UH and Arms, nice balancing
