Hotfixes

December 1, 2022Classes

Evoker

Living Flame will now restore 50% of its mana cost when used to strike an enemy.

Developers’ note: This change is intended to allow Preservation Evokers to use Living Flame to contribute damage during raid encounters without losing mana. It will also prevent Devastation Evokers from running out of mana when using Living Flame with high haste values.

Withering damage reduced by 64% (effect applied by Decay Speaker’s Withering Burst, Trickclaw Mystic’s Witherbolt, etc.).

Poison Cleansing TotemComment by KaratirHow about the fact that your strafe keys no longer work and if you're not in a zone where you can dragonride, then you cannot fix it.

But the fact they nerfed a buff called fun detected because, well fun was detected, has to make you laugh. I’m glad they even saw the humor when posting the news.

I’m going to second what one of the earlier posts said, they did it on purpose… if not it’s kind of bewilderingComment by TaiylimI don't see a fix for the Waygates quest not appearing after reaching correct renown. RIP.Comment by novadude"Fixed an issue that could cause Supply Drops in Ohn’ahran Plains to not reach the ground before despawning." finally lol this was happening more than i could claim it. before it hit the ground it just poofsComment by ArkthugalHow about the fact that your strafe keys no longer work and if you're not in a zone where you can dragonride, then you cannot fix it.
