Blizzard released hotfixes for World of Warcraft: The War Within (11.2.5) on October 14, covering both retail and Legion Remix. The notes touch on a mix of bug fixes, balance tweaks, and content restorations that matter if you play Remix or have been hitting gathering nodes since the earlier Infinite Power changes. The official list was posted on the Blizzard forums; you can read the full forum post here.
Patch Notes – War Within 11.2.5
Dungeons and Raids
- Halls of Atonement
- Fixed an issue where visuals for Halkias’s ability Crumbling Slam would disappear if players jumped too high.
Player versus Player
- Dalaran Sewers and Ruins of Lordaeron have temporarily been removed from the Arena rotation.
Quests
- Stout Highlands Runehorns have become more bold, allowing players to more easily complete “A Stack of Racks”.
Legion Remix
- Aeonicus can now teach mages the Arcane Momentum technique.
- Hunters can now find tameable hyenas, clefthoofs, core hounds, stone hounds, and devilsaurs on the Broken Isles.
- Zandalari Trolls can now pray at a shrine at the Infinite Bazaar near Dalaran to choose their Loa.
- The Imperious affix in Heroic World Tier now empowers nearby enemy damage by 30% (was 25%) occurring every 15 seconds for 10 seconds (was always active).
- Reduced the potency of Timeless Scroll of Chaos to be less effective than Demon Hunter’s Chaos Brand.
- Gathering nodes in Legion Remix have had their loot tables normalized.
- Rich Gathering Nodes now have a high chance to contain mementos.
- Seam Gathering Nodes now have a high chance to contain multiple mementos.
- Champion’s Insignias will no longer survive the conversion process to alternate timelines.
- Fixed an issue causing Monk timerunners to enter the wrong timeline of Uldum when heading “Off to Adventure”.
- Reign of Chaos and Tempest Wrath aura tooltips now display the correct amount of damage.
- Memento of Epoch Nostalgia is now usable from your inventory.
If you play Remix, the tameable pets and the gathering node adjustments are probably the most immediately noticeable changes. For PvP players, the temporary removal of two arenas from rotation will be the main practical change for the moment.
