Here you'll find a list of hotfixes that address various issues related to World of Warcraft: Legion.

September 8

Hotfixes

Classes

Dungeons

Black Rook Hold Fel Vomit from the Smashspite the Hateful encounter in Black Rook Hold will no longer persist after the encounter is defeated.



Items

The secondary stats on Legion gems have been significantly decreased. Developers’ notes: Gems are not in the same place as they were in previous expansions. They’re a bit too powerful, and this was not intended. Sockets are still quite valuable and will continue to be so, but we need to reduce the difference between an item having a socket vs. not having a socket.



PvP

Ashran Ashran Dominance now rewards 500 honor for completion. Slay Them All now rewards 200 honor for completion.



Honor awarded from skirmishes has been tripled.

Professions

Marksman hunters who left Niskara without talking to Vereesa can speak to her at Krassus' Landing to complete the "Rescue Mission" quest.

The Mage Order Campaign quest "What Is Going On Here" objectives should now complete reliably.

Suramar

Blackhawk's Bulwark PvP Captains should respawn more quickly.

September 7

Hotfixes

Classes

Hunter

Barrage now fires in a tighter cone, and its visual has been improved to better show its area of effect. Developers’ Notes-- Barrage fulfills a fantasy of a wild spray of shots in a large area. Of course, that can be dangerous, and often Hunters accidentally pull additional enemies with Barrage, especially in Legion dungeons. We saw this as a failure on our part to convey what it actually does. This hotfix should allow Hunters to get a feel for the shape and size of it and build a reliable expectation of what will happen when they cast Barrage. No change was made to Barrage’s damage. We hope that this helps Hunters and their groupmates to have a more pleasant dungeon experience.



Rogue

Outlaw Rogues with Curse of the Dreadblades ability active will no longer take the backlash damage if Saber Slash strikes a second time.

Touch of the Void: the tentacles summoned by this trinket no longer scale past level 100.

Reduced the active effect potency of Heirloom trinkets acquired from Warlords of Draenor Mythic Dungeons.
