Latest Cataclysm Hotfixes Posted

General

Bonuses from Embrace of the Shale Spider and Blessing of Forgotten Kings can no longer stack.
Completing Archaeology projects will once again contribute to the guild achievement Making History once the player relogs.
The Orgrimmar portal to Mount Hyjal should now appear for players who flew directly into Hyjal to start questing, rather than take the Moonglade portal.
The old and busted Winter's Veil decorations in Brill have been disabled.

Classes

Paladins

Ancient Power now has a 30-second maximum duration and will properly be canceled when zoning or relogging.
Glyph of Seal of Insight now correctly increases healing done by Word of Glory and Light of Dawn while Seal of Insight is active.

Shaman

The Mana Tide Totem hotfix from yesterday has been reverted. The Mana Tide buff no longer stacks, as this had a major impact on encounter design.

Warlocks

It is no longer possible to waste a Soulstone by attempting to use it on a dead target. The player will receive an Invalid Target error message at the completion of their channel. In a future patch, we intend this functionality to work correctly, allowing a Soulstone to be used to instantly resurrect a dead target.

Halls of Origination

The damage of Fireballs automatically cast by Temple Fireshaper with Molten Barrier active has been adjusted in normal and Heroic difficulty.
The damage of Pact of Darkness cast by Temple Shadowlancer has been adjusted in normal and Heroic difficulty.

Lost City of Tol'vir

Siamat will cast Deflecting Winds after a few seconds of entering combat regardless of any abilities used against him at the start of the encounter.
The damage of Dust Flail cast by Lockmaw has been adjusted in normal difficulty.

The Stonecore

The Crystal Shards creatures in the Corborus encounter are now level 86, down from 88.

Items

Both normal and Heroic versions of Heart of Ignacious apply 20-second cooldowns on other similar items, rather than the full 2-minute duration.
Shroud of Dark Memories and Shade of Death now have different stats.

Professions

Pyrite Ore is prospectable at 500 Jewelcrafting skill, down from 525.
Darkbrew Lager can be learned at 415 Cooking skill, down from 425.
