The Burning Crusade Classic

Fixed an issue where Blackrock Spire only allowed 5 players to enter.
Fixed a bug preventing the quest “The First and Last” from starting for eligible players.
Cleansed Songflowers now apply their buff to the clicking player, not the player’s target.
Paladins should now be able to learn Consecration from their trainer as intended.
Shamans who were unable to learn Two-Handed Maces and Two-Handed Axes from the weapon trainer should again be able to.

Developers’ notes: Players may need to log out and back in to pick up this fix.

Player versus Player

The current active increase to Honor gains is now 150% (was a 100% bonus).
Added level 51-60 versions of the “For Great Honor” (Horde) and “Concerted Effort” (Alliance) quests.
Developers’ notes: Soon after launching the Burning Crusade pre-expansion patch, we could see that PvP needed an additional increase in rate of gearing. These quests award 400 Honor (at level 60) when handed in, as well as experience for players from levels 51-59. These quests do not require Eye of the Storm, and their text will soon be updated to reflect that. When the Dark Portal opens, these quests will no longer be available, and the level 61-70 versions of these quests will become available.
