World of Warcraft’s June 23 hotfixes make Midsummer’s roc hunt a little kinder

Blizzard posted a June 23 hotfix batch for World of Warcraft: Midnight on the official forums, with the biggest changes focused on the Midsummer Fire Festival and the Sun Festival Painted Roc mount. The Reignite the Skies daily unlocks are now account-wide, and the Satchel of Chilled Goods no longer rerolls its contents every time it is opened.

There is more tucked into the same batch as well. Blizzard also touched a raid trinket, a Lorewalking portal, PvP nameplate visibility, a profession item, a weekly quest turn-in, and a world quest tied to Val.

Patch Notes

Items

• Rotmire’s Sporeheart once again triggers from Leech healing.

Lorewalking

• During Loa Lorewalking (and Darkspear Heritage), Lukou’s portals will now allow transport while in combat.

Midsummer Fire Festival

• “Reignite the Skies: Orgrimmar” and “Reignite the Skies: Stormwind” Midsummer dailies unlocks are now account-wide.
• Fixed an issue that allowed the contents Satchel of Chilled Goods to reroll each time it was opened.
• Sun Festival Painted Roc’s chance to drop in Satchel of Chilled Goods has been doubled for the first drop of the day on the account. The drop rate from the first satchel will continue to increase each day until it is obtained.

Player versus Player

• Fixed an issue where some important effects and major defensives were not displaying on enemy player nameplates.

Professions

• Fixed an issue where Empowered Mulch would result in no herbs being gathered.

Quests

• The weekly offerings from Lady Liadrin should once again offer four choices to players.

Val

• Adjustments made to the “Until it is Done” world quest, improving quest credit earned and increasing creature respawn rates.
