February 26th Hotfixes

by - 9 years ago

Rygarius posted another round of hotfixes last night to address some of the issues noted since the release of patch 6.1 into the wild.

A few notable items from the full list:

The Heirloom vendors Estelle Gendry (Horde) and Krom Stoutarm (Alliance) now have a similar aura surrounding them that was placed on Khadgar, which should prevent them from being covered up by crowds of people trying to get their upgrades.

A fix to the oddly high amounts of Bonus Armor on low-level items has been added, however this change will require a realm restart before it will take effect.

The Heirloom item Musty Tome of the Lost now uses the Heirloom Armor upgrade tokens rather than Heirloom Weapon upgrade tokens. This change also requires a realm restart before it will take effect though.

S.E.L.F.I.E. Cameras can now be used while under a stealth effect so watch out for those sneaky Rogues and Druids trying to snap a selfie with the boss before they’re pulled.

There’s been an increase to the amount of Stamina received from the various Draenor dishes.

Primal Combatant’s Medallion of Adaptation should now convert into the correct faction version for characters that had undergone a Paid Faction Transfer.

Possibly the most important hotfix of all though: What a Strange, Interdimensional Trip It’s Been: Credit should now be correctly awarded for defeating Rukhmar with Pepe atop your head.

For the full list of hotfixes check out the post below, or see Rygarius’ original post here.
