Blizzard’s April 22 hotfix pass fixes class bugs, Decor Duel rewards, and Voidcore issues in Midnight
The first 12.0.5 hotfix batch also touched quests, sockets, and a few older Midnight systems after Blizzard posted the update on its official forums.
Blizzard put out the first round of Midnight 12.0.5 hotfixes on April 22, 2026, and the list reaches across class bugs, Decor Duel, dungeons and raids, items, professions, and quests. The update was posted to the official World of Warcraft forums.
Several of the fixes are aimed at long-running problems rather than balance changes. Blizzard corrected an issue with Nebulous Voidcore rewards, addressed socket handling for Champion gear from Midnight Renown vendors, and cleaned up a few quest interactions that had stopped working as intended.
Patch Notes
Blizzard’s April 22 hotfix batch mixed quality-of-life repairs with targeted bug fixes for classes and side systems. Decor Duel saw some of the most visible changes, with reward logic, tracking behavior, and achievement progress all getting attention. There were also class-specific fixes for Death Knight, Evoker, Holy Paladin, and Rogue, plus a correction for the weekly Voidcore turn-in issue.
Characters
- Fixed a bug that could cause some Night Elf characters to be missing the intended Linen Blindfold option they previously chose.
Classes
- Death Knight
- Resolved an issue causing the Commander of the Dead damage increase aura to be applied to Death Knights.
- Evoker
- Preservation
- Fixed an issue where Dream Breath was not being stored in Stasis.
- Preservation
- Paladin
- Holy
- Fixed a bug that could cause Holy Paladins to do less damage than intended.
- Holy
- Rogue
- Fixed a bug that prevented the expected audio from playing when a Rogue enters stealth.
Decor Duel
- Fixed a bug that could prevent Decor Duel participants from receiving base Illusionary Coin rewards by incorrectly evaluating them to be AFK.
- Humanoid tracking abilities no longer reveal players in Decor Duel.
- Achievements earned in Decor Duel are now account-wide, as intended.
Dungeons and Raids
- Addressed an issue where Lindormi’s Guidance could be applied to players outside of Mythic+ dungeons.
- March on Quel’Danas
- Midnight Falls
- Resolved issues with Torchbearer failing to prevent players from receiving applications of Midnight or failing to remove applications of Midnight.
- Midnight Falls
Items
- Addressed an issue preventing sockets from being added to Champion items obtained from Midnight Renown vendors.
- Fixed an issue where acquiring a Nebulous Voidcore with Thalassian Tokens of Merit would cause Decimus to only grant one of his two weekly Nebulous Voidcores upon quest turn-in.
- Developers’ notes: Players who have two Nebulous Voidcores in their currency window while showing “Season Maximum: 1/2” can now safely complete any of Decimus’s quests again to receive their missing Nebulous Voidcore.
Professions
- Adjusted the cost of Thalassian Competitor’s Chain Tunic to 5 Heraldry (was 4) to be in line with other crafted PvP chestpieces.
Quests
- The Ancient Visionstone can once again be interacted with for the Harandar repeatable legends quests “The Story of the Echoless Flame” and “The Story of Russula’s Outreach”.
- Fixed a bug where the daily quest “Ephemeral Masquerade” appeared to be a low-level quest, rather than the intended blue exclamation point.
