[2023] WoW Hotfixes - Updated June 5

Hey all! Here are today’s hotfixes.

May 30, 2023

Classes

• Druid
  • Fixed a bug causing Ursol’s Vortex to use its PvP duration in PvE content.

Dungeons and Raids

• Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible
  • The Forgotten Experiments
    • Fixed an issue where players sometimes left combat between when boss creatures were active.
  • Rashok, the Elder
    • Fixed an issue where Lava Wave is inflicting damage more often than stated in the spell description.
  • Magmorax
    • No longer targets pets with Blazing Breath.
  • Echo of Neltharion
    • Shatter no longer damages pets.
• Mythic+
  • Neltharus
    • Burning Chains found in the Smoldering Barracks no longer damage players.
    • The doorway in the Smoldering Barracks now opens when Chargath, Bane of Scales is defeated.
    • Increased the cooldown of Qalashi Thaumaturge’s Molten Core.
    • Forgewrought Monstrosity health reduced by 25%.
    • Lava Flare health reduced by 20%.
    • Magmatusk
      • Magma Eruption damage reduced by 20%.
  • Vortex Pinnacle
    • The cooldown of Temple Adept’s Greater Heal has been increased.
    • Skyfall Star’s Starlight damage reduced by 20%.
    • Asaad, Caliph of Zephyrs
      • Skyfall Nova health reduced by 20%.

Items and Rewards

• Players can now get a Wirt’s Leg drop during the Diablo promotion even if their class cannot use the weapon type.
  • Developers’ notes: We are seeing that some versions of Wirt’s Leg are rarer than others due to a restriction on only seeing items your class can use. With the item being Bind on Equip, we are removing the restriction of only seeing items your class can use, so players will see a Wirt’s Leg more often and can send it to an alt that can use it. Also, players can trade a version of the leg they do not need to others that do.

Player versus Player

• Classes
  • Druid
    • Moon and Stars will no longer cause Precognition to trigger even if the Druid is successfully interrupted.

Professions

• Alchemy
  • Potion and Phial Cauldrons have had their cooldowns reduced to 10 seconds so that solo alchemists who provide for large raid sizes can do so quickly.

Quests

• The Seething Orb puzzle in the Zaqali Caldera will now spawn more frequently.
• Fixed an issue where the Elder Magma Serpent might not spawn if Ritualmaster Skarna was defeated too quickly during “Researchers Under Fire.”
