Today, June 21, Blizzard has released a new hotfix for WoW, and it includes changes to WoW Remix and Cataclysm Classic.
First off, we’ve got a fix in WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria. Holy Priests, you’ll be happy to hear this one. There was an issue with Echo of Light scaling incorrectly when there was a level disparity. Finally, you can heal without worrying about some weird scaling bug throwing off your game.
Now, for all you Shamans out there still rocking Cataclysm Classic, there’s a tweak with your Fire Elementals. They’ll now prefer targets that have your Flameshock on them. But don’t expect them to be perfect, as they’ll only check every few seconds. So, if they’re not switching targets instantly, you should just give it a moment.
As for the full patch notes, please check the changes below:
HOTFIXES
June 21, 2024
WoW Remix: Mists of Pandaria
- Fixed an issue causing Echo of Light from Holy Priest to scale incorrectly when there’s a level disparity.
Cataclysm Classic
- Shaman Fire Elementals will now prefer targets that have their master’s Flameshock active on them, and will switch to those targets over targets without their master’s Flameshock. This check occurs only once every several seconds, so may take a little time to occur.
- Temporarily removed the Elemental Shaman (2) Set Bonus on the Burning Crusade Tier 4 set.
- Developer’s note: The 2 Piece Elemental Shaman Tier 4 bonus has a bug that existed in original Cataclysm, but was found later on in Warlords of Draenor. If this bonus were to remain in its bugged state, it would cause Elemental Shamans to wear 2 Pieces of The Burning Crusade tier for the entire expansion and we kind of like it when people have to progress their gear. Because the real fix we wish to do requires server restarts, we are removing the 2-set bonus off of the set for the weekend, and then placing it back after server restarts in its fixed state.
