Cataclysm Classic

Resolved an issue that temporarily caused Guild Bank tabs 7 and 8 to not populate when viewed.

Developers' notes: It may be possible that players placed new items in the apparently empty Guild Bank slots between the launch of patch 4.4.1 and today's fix. To address this, we will apply another hotfix with weekly scheduled maintenance that will identify and move such items to any empty slots elsewhere in the Guild Bank. This may result in items being placed in tabs with different permission settings, and you may need to move them to get them to the intended slot. If you suspect this applies to you, you may wish to make space in your Guild Bank as soon as possible.

Hunter

Explosive Shot should no longer miss a tick of damage when being reapplied in quick succession.

Warrior

Reverted recent changes to the timing of Rend refreshes with the Warrior talents Lambs to the Slaughter and Blood and Thunder.

Comment by LionButLeonW they're working on cata againComment by SoeroahBah, momentary hope only to be crushed once again.Comment by GorilitaDead game, release freshComment by mightyone2explain the warrior fix i dont think anyone knows what ur talking aboutComment by KilonosMega servers when? Tier 11 lasting 23 weeks cut every servers population by 50% if not more. Easy example of this is Benediction going from 26k active to 3.7k active during this raid tier.Comment by hibiikiwheres JJ?Comment by SnowmanlmaoWhat's the purpose of the hunter's change? It was just a mechanic to play around. Now it's literally just braindead ES spamming on LnL proc lmaoComment by Verticom1Exactly what I was thinking too ^^^^Comment by CraintifDumb me tought they were fixing the guild bank fiasco of retail.Comment by AsheyyWhat's the purpose of the hunter's change? It was just a mechanic to play around. Now it's literally just braindead ES spamming on LnL proc lmaoComment by NovaProspektInteresting, so they are actually touching classes and specs when something goes wrong, but weirdly enough Blizzard is still ignoring Heroic Leap's bugged pathing..
I just don't understand, it's hasn't been working since the launch of Cata classic and we are now going into the new tier with the same issues

Absolutely dumbfoundedComment by Spider925hmm, maybe they forgot that in retail our guild banks are still empty... whole tabs disappeared lolComment by instigWelp, I am glad I never played classic Cata. The Hunter Explosive Shot change alone confirms that this change ruins the game completely for me.

In retail Cata back when it launched all the way until it ended, there was an intended change where you needed to manage your lock and load procs by weaving in steady shot or arcane shot between each explosive shot because one of the charges would get consumed if you did it in quick succession. That mechanic distinguished bad hunters from good hunters. The ability to manage explosive shot. Blizzard changed that in MoP to make it easier to use. However, the way it was in Cata was what provided Hunters skill expression in managing lock and load.

Now that has been changed, it removes all skill from Survival Hunters. I am quite disappointed in this change, and this is no longer the game I recognise. There has just been so many little changes sprinkled that it's no longer recognised as the game that it used to be. It is essentially classic+.

People may say it is an overaction to this small change, but consider there hasn't been a single individual change that is the problem. It is this change in combination with the many other small changes made to classic over the years that have really changed the game completely different from what it was originally. This new version of the game is what I despise unconditionally.Comment by novadudeMega servers when? Tier 11 lasting 23 weeks cut every servers population by 50% if not more.

Maybe just delete it from the game?Comment by BelrossInteresting, so they are actually touching classes and specs when something goes wrong, but weirdly enough Blizzard is still ignoring Heroic Leap's bugged pathing..

All this is... is you trying to justify your dislike of something you had no reason to dislike in the first place. You want your opinion that you had since before Cataclysm Classic launched to be right so you use everything to justify it. Ridiculous honestly.Comment by Jaskolkablizzard still didn't get a report from their so pro WoW Community Council that heroic leap is still bugged...
