[2022] WoW Hotfixes - Updated December 8

Hey all! Here are today’s hotfixes.

December 6, 2022

Classes

• Death Knight
  • Blood
    • Fixed an issue with Voracious increasing Death Strike’s minimum heal by more than intended.
• Hunter
  • Fixed an issue where enemies that were immune to the knockback from High Explosive Trap were still being affected by Binding Shackles.
• Priest
  • Shadow
    • Psyfiend health reduced to 4% of the Priest’s maximum health (down from 10%).
    • Psyfiend is no longer immune to debuffs and channel effects.
    • The channel duration of Psyflay from Psyfiend is now 12 seconds to match the creature’s duration.

Creatures and NPCs

• Fixed an issue where Enkine the Voracious could not be summoned.

Dungeons and Raids

• Halls of Infusion
  • Fixed an issue that was preventing Death Knights from returning to the dungeon using Death Gate.

Items and Rewards

• Fixed an issue where if a player dies while equipped with the Primal Ritual Shell the chosen buff resets to wind.
• Adjusted the drop rates of Rousing Ire across all forms of content. In general, gathering should be providing substantially less, while participating in instanced PvP should be more rewarding.
• Dreamscape Prism now correctly increases your Mastery.
• Food buffs received from the Valdrakken Feast will no longer be cancelled when using your Hearthstone.
• The “Fully Ruby Feasted” debuff has been fixed to allow the players two simultaneous Ruby Feast buffs, and will no longer affect any of the cosmetics received from food here.
• Fixed an issue where trading Bundle O’ Cards: Dragon Isles and Soggy Clump of Darkmoon Cards could cause the client to crash.

Professions

• The number of first-time crafts that can grant experience has been reduced to 30 (was 60).
  • Developers’ note: We made this change to better support gaining XP from crafting during leveling, while minimizing the incentive to take on several throw-away professions just to level yourself faster.
• Fishing
  • Fixed an issue where Tuskarr Fishing Holes were not available to players with Iskaara Tuskarr Renown rank 4 on the account and Dragon Isles Fishing.

Quests

• The Azure Span
  • Made some backend changes to the Community Feast to reduce lag.
    • Developers’ note: Please let us know if you see unusually high lag, particularly if it happens only in the Iskaara area, or if it only happens while the Community Feast event is occurring.
• Ohn’ahran Plains
  • The quest boss for “The Field of Ferocity: Master of the Hunt!” should now behave properly when both left unengaged in combat and when being defeated.
• Thaldraszus
  • Fixed an issue where players and NPCs were floating during the “Back to the Future” cinematic.
  • Fixed an issue in “Cracks in Time” where the extra action button was not displaying while dragonriding.
• The Waking Shores
  • Fixed an issue where Disgruntled Riverbeast Matriarch was not displaying the proper tooltip during “Wildlife Rescue.”
