Achievements

Fixed an issue where the ‘High Explorer’ title was not awarded upon completing the War Within Delves: Tier 11 (Season 2)

Classes

Hunter

Dire Beasts will now find a safe location when being summoned on fights with hard-to-reach bosses (example: Kyrioss).
Pack Leader’s Bear will now find a safe location when being summoned on fights with hard-to-reach bosses.
Pack Leader’s Bear will now begin its leap from nearby the player’s position, like Dire Beasts, substantially reducing the likelihood of any social aggro or pulls from the Bear.

Monk

Mistweaver, Windwalker

Conduit of the Celestials: Fixed an issue causing Celestial Conduit to not reset when a raid encounter ends.

Priest

Discipline

Fixed an issue causing the Season 2 set 2-piece to always apply Insurance to the Priest when applied through Atonement healing.
Fixed an issue causing Weal and Woe to benefit both Power Word: Shield and Smite if used in succession through spell queuing.

Holy

Fixed an issue causing the Holy Word cooldown reduction from Empowered Renew to not benefit from Light of the Naaru and Apotheosis.

Shaman

Elemental

Fixed a bug that briefly caused a power loss for all damage spells.
Stormbringer: Fixed an issue causing Awakening Storms to be removed when engaging dungeon bosses.

Delves

An issue causing Healer Brann Explorer’s Medical Journal to not progress further after level 60 has been resolved.
Mechasaur EZ-Build Kit no longer sometime spawns more than a reasonable number of Mechasaurs. That was scary!
Brann now takes reduced damage from most area-of-effect spells.
The Waterworks

Fixed an issue where Air Totem Kits would respawn, allowing players to acquire an infinite amount at the start instead of a fixed amount.

Dungeons and Raids

Cinderbrew Meadery

Addressed an I’pa issue causing Brew Drops to spawn with energy and enraging quicker than expected.
Benk Buzzbee’s Honey Marinade area denial damage reduced by 33%.

The MOTHERLODE!!

Azerokk adds’ Azerite Aftershock initial damage reduced by 23%.
Azerokk adds’ Azerite Aftershock periodic damage reduced by 43%.

Operation: Floodgate

Big Momma Maximum Distortion cast time increased to 4 seconds (was 3), and Maximum Distortion duration reduced to 12 seconds (was 14).
Swampface chains targeting updated to prefer non-healers.

Liberation of Undermine

Cauldron of Carnage

Resolved an issue in Mythic difficulty where players could remove an additional application of Up the Ante unintentionally.

Items

Epic Bind-on-Equip items from the Liberation of Undermine raid that were mistakenly converted to Bind on Pickup and became soulbound have been reverted to Bind-on-Equip. Mythic raid BoEs will continue to drop as Bind-on-Pickup and matching the looter’s specialization for the early weeks of the season, but will no longer be tradeable even after meeting existing item level requirements that would allow items to be traded in other circumstances.
Resolved an issue where Pristine Kaja’Cola cans were not dropping from S.C.R.A.P. piles for players at Renown rank 14 with the Cartels of Undermine.
Amorphous Relic - Primary stat effect increased by 106% and secondary stat effect increased by 148%. Effects reduced by 50% in PvP combat.

They don't even do what they're supposed to do with that curio, so what was the point of nerfing?Comment by tmptfateWhy even bother nerfing the accidental additional dinos? They don't even do what they're supposed to do with that curio, so what was the point of nerfing?Comment by RoboMaximillionDamn they got to the dinos lmao. When they aren't bugging out and not attacking anything, they were kinda destroying bosses when you have like 10 of them spawn from an egg. This was with Healer Brann btw. He was gapping my Unholy DK on a 8 run when this happened.Comment by scott523Need to nerf last boss phase 2 trash in Priory of the Sacred Flame.

Also some trash in Excavation Site 9 need to nerfed. For example, I’m using dominate mind on Tainted Feasters because they’re dealing 2-3x more damage as a pet than me as disc priest.Comment by BlueletterHow about a fix for the massive World lag that's happening right now?Comment by SuzushiiroAnd here I thought I was just getting lucky when I only got vined when a DPS was dead in the M+ runs of Floodgate I just did.Comment by IKLFaxHave you seen what state Holy Paladins are in?Comment by MyhvWait, there are BoEs this tier?
