We’ll be having our usual Tuesday hotfix starting at 6am for the US servers and at 9pm (5am GMT Wednesday March 10) for Runnyeye and Splitpaw.The downtime will be the usual hour or so.
and your March 9 Hotfix Notes after the jump…
GENERAL
- It should be more difficult to get out of PvP combat after engaging someone in PvP combat.
- You can no longer break PvP encounters by using /yell.
- All raid mobs have had their damage and melee reduced by 10-20%
BATTLEGROUNDS
- You will now only get a death credit in a battleground if you actually die.
- Ungrouped members on the same team should be autogrouped after a few seconds.
- The old group icons are back. So custom UI group icons should work normally now.
- Russian names now display properly in the battleground leaderboard window.
- Healing from wards will now count as healing given and healing received in the battleground leaderboard.
ITEMS
- The descriptions for Clarissa’s Content Countenance and Criggle’s Chaotic Characteristics have been updated to resolve some confusion issues.
- The following items have been changed from heirloom/lore-equip to no trade/lore:
- exquisite woven boots
- exquisite woven pants
- exquisite woven shoulder pads
- exquisite woven tunic
- female tradesman boots
- female tradesman gloves
- female tradesman pants
- female tradesman tunic
- male tradesman boots
- male tradesman gloves
- male tradesman pants
- male tradesman tunic
- striking woven boots
- striking woven pants
- striking woven shoulder pads
- striking woven tunic
- dragon fastened robe

QUESTS
- Rewards from the ‘Shadows of the Betrayed’ signature quest are now correctly flagged as one-hand weapons.
TRADESKILLS
- Tradeskilled adornments would not work on a large number of low-level items. This has been fixed.
- The Hua Mein daily crafting missions now include only 1 mission that requires harvesting, equivalent to the Kerra and Quel’ule factions.
LAIR OF THE DRAGON QUEEN
- Toxxulia should do less damage with her spells and melee.
PALACE OF ROEHN THEER
- Maalus Shadowfyre will now cast his AOE spells at least 12 seconds apart from one another, rather than 8 seconds, giving players more time to recover after the previous AOE spell ticks.
PERAH CELSIS ABONIMABLE LABORATORY
- Perah Celsis should do slightly less damage with his spells.
“The Hua Mein daily crafting missions now include only 1 mission that requires harvesting, equivalent to the Kerra and Quel’ule factions.”
I wish that were the case, but Tuesday evening, post-fix, the Hua Mein quest was to harvest 25 sumac lumber, and this morning (Thursday) the Hua Mein quest was for fishing. No change.
