Blizzard has released another round of hotfixes to the live realms which should balance out stats on a few items received from Timewalking instances, decrease the difficulty slightly for smaller raid groups on Archimonde, and resolve an issue affecting certain character specific PvP award mounts during character faction-transfers.

- Voidscribe Aathalos is no longer susceptible to Charm, Possess, or Banish effects.
- Weaponlord Mehlkhior, and other creatures around Xhul’horac are now immune to Charm effects.
- Archimonde
- All of the following Archimonde encounter changes requires a realm restart to take effect.
- We have made a number of changes aimed at reducing the difficulty of the Archimonde encounter for smaller raid groups on Normal and Heroic difficulty, with a focus on the final phase of the encounter in particular. These changes are offset by increased scaling with respect to raid size, so that the experience for larger raid groups will be mostly unchanged.
- Infernal Doombringer’s health has been reduced by up to 15%.
- Shadowed Netherwalker’s health has been reduced by up to 15%.
- Living Shadow’s health has been reduced by up to 15%.
- Reduced the damage of Wrought Chaos by up to 20%.
- Reduced the damage of Shackled Torment by up to 20%.
- Living Shadows now spawn from each Nether Tear at a reduced rate for smaller raid sizes.
- Added a 3-second cooldown to the periodic healing of Eternal Flame, preventing Infernal Doombringers from healing other Infernal Doombringers until 3 seconds after spawning on all difficulties.
- Archimonde’s health has been reduced by 10% on Raid Finder difficulty.
