Cataclysm Classic Hotfixes - May 3

Hotfixes

May 3, 2024

Cataclysm Classic

• Fixed a bug causing Hunters to do trap dropping animations twice.
• Account wide pet collection achievements now correctly grant rewards.
• Fixed an issue preventing Bloodlust and Heroism from working as intended.
• Mounting the Violet Proto Drake now grants Master Riding to players who are at least level 80 and have Artisan Riding trained.
• Heal-over-time and damage-over-time ticks should now behave as intended in Cataclysm when refreshed.
  • Developers’ notes: Previously, refreshing a DoT just before it finished its last tick could cause it to miss out on a tick. That was the correct behavior in Wrath of the Lich King, but not Cataclysm.
• Holidays
  • The Children’s Week holiday is now extended for one additional week.
  • “Ridin’ The Rocketway” can now be completed.
  • Craggle Wobbletop and Blax Bottlerocket now sell Yellow and Green Balloons for Children’s Week.
  • Darkmoon Faire will be closed until the launch of Cataclysm, when it will return with the newly updated Darkmoon Faire Island.
