[Pending Restart] - Tier 5 gear pieces (bloodforged included) now has a vendor price.

[Pending Restart] - [The Botanica] - Laj is no longer immune to a school of damage when he transforms. Instead he will gain resistant to the element he has become, the damage of taken from that element is reduced by 50% and will increase the damage taken from a different element by 20%.

[Pending Restart] - [The Arcatraz] - Energy Discharge from the Arcatraz Sentinel now triggers every 1.2 seconds from every 1 second. The damage done remains unchanged.

[Pending Restart] - [The Arcatraz] - Arcatraz Sentinels can no longer spawn unrelenting spirits. This change aims to tone down a very strong combination of the Sentinels Chain Lightning, Grevious Wounds (from taking AoE damage from passing by the chain lightning) and the Unrelenting Spirit keeping you in combat (which allows for Grevious Wounds to continue dealing damage).

[Pending Restart] - Critters in Mythic+ can no longer spawn an unrelenting spirit.

The addons DRTracker and DiminishingReturns are now available via the launcher and updated to work with Ascension diminishing returns.

[Pending Restart] updated the differences in stats (Primarily Stamina) in differences between the Frostwolf and Stormpike items bought for Honor from the Alterac Valley vendors. Frostwolf versions have gained slight increases in stamina to match Stormpike versions.

[Pending Restart] - Mobs who stun with the "Charge" spell in TBC Dungeons will no longer charge you (stunning you) in melee range and this specific "Charge" now has the same deadzone as the Normal Charge. This affects mobs in Hellfire Ramparts, Shattered Halls, Mana Tombs, etc.

Kaelthas Pyroblast will no longer trigger stagger if under the effect of Devastation (Absorbs the damage from the pyroblast).

Fixed a recent issue where Fierce Blows could bypass blocks. This fixes a significant foundation issue that was meant to be adressed in the last updates to the tanks.

Knight-Lord Bloodvalor in Silvermoon City will now properly grant the quest "A Summons from Lord Solanar", giving access to the questline for the Thalassian Charger and Blood Knight Tabard.

[Pending Restart] - Fixed an issue where the spawn location for a crows cache in Zangarmash would be extremely unclear on its location. Its PoI and Location should be shown on the map once it spawns again.

[Pending Restart] - Removed the breadcrumb quests from callboard for Karazhan Attunement once Serpentshrine Caverns releases because the attunement for Karazhan is no longer required once SSC is released. You will still be able to do the attunement normally to gain the Masters Key to your Vanity Collection, but being available on the callboard created misleading expectations.

Using the Blood Bowl teleporter will no longer teleport you do a different instance of the Blood Bowl Arena.

The 3 minute cooldown on initiating a vote-kick for LFG is being reverted for the time being until other changes for LFG release with it to address some of the issues. This was meant to go live with many other changes to improve the LFG dynamic.

Fixed an issue where ranged and melee abilities dealing Arcane school damage did not consume the Arcane Blast debuffs.

Updated the tooltip on the Hunter vs. Wild talent to clarify that it only works with Hunter pets.

Increased the chance to roll Growl if you know Bear form. This increased chance is much more significant while leveling to ensure obtaining your required tanking spells while not being spammed with Growl at max level if you don't want it.

Mend Pet can now also be drafted when you know Enslave Demon, Dominate Undead and Tame Dragonkin.

[Pending Restart] Corrected the spawn location of the Crow's Cache "Nagrand, Nagrand".

[Mythic+] Corpse Juice triggered by the Corpse Explosion Affix no longer stacks up, instead each individual creature applies Corps Juice to targets hit by Corpse Explosion to prevent a unwanted behaviour in damage calculation on higher Mythic Levels. Corpse Juice is now a Disease effect instead of a Magic Effect.

[Pending Restar] Fixed an issue where the recent changes to Curse of Agony was dealing far more damage than the old Curse of Agony before the rework. It now deals the same damage as it did before, but linearly scaling up as intended, with the first and last tick doing the same damage as the old first and last tick.

[Pending Restart] [Steamvaults] [Hydromancer Thespia] - Lesser Waterelementals summoned by Hydromancer Thespia no longer ignore line of sight with their Water Bolt ability. This allows the use of Smoke Bomb to pull them together once again.

Fixed an issue where Seed of Life would not be applied when casting Rejuvenation and Regrowth as intended. They will now refresh and add a stack of Seed of Life instantly when cast on a target.

[Pending Restar] Due to the reduced Curse of Agony damage, Endless Agony now also increases the build up of the damage of Curse of Agony over its duration by 50%, and your Curse of Agony now benefits from spell haste.

[Pending Restart] - Fixed an issue with Phasing in the Blood Bowl. This could sometimes cause the actual winner to not receive the spoils. Additionally, players would not see other players inside this area if they were in an incorrect phase.

Prevented the video on the landing page of the website from autoplaying with audio enabled.

Fixed an issue where Endless Agonizer from the Legendary Mystic Enchant Endless Agony would have two active buffs shown at the same time with different tooltips.

[Pending Restart] Fixed an issue where the Demonic Pact Capstone was not giving 5% spell damage to the caster.

Fixed an issue where the recent Two-Handed One with the Light buff was applying in PvP as well. (This was intended as a PvE increase for Two-Handers as in PvP it was already powerful while using that.)

Updated the Launcher framework to Electron 20.

Fixed the issue causing the launcher to either fail to start, or instantly close when attempted to open. The issue was related to GPU sandboxing in Electron, we have notified the maintainers about this issue and provide a temporary solution until an official solution from them is available.
