 None    Patch 9.2

Classes

Classes
  • Death Knight
    • Blood
      • (4) Set Bonus: Fixed an issue where the free Heart Strike counterattack was providing more stacks of Endless Rune Waltz than intended during Dancing Rune Weapon.
  • Warlock
    • Destruction
      • (2) Set Bonus: Fixed an issue where Ritual of Ruin would cause the Infernal's stun to be permanent.
Dungeons and Raids
  • Sepulcher of the First Ones
    • Fixed an issue that could cause doors or bridges to block progress on a reset of the zone.
    • Skolex, the Insatiable Ravener
      • Skolex will no longer use Wormhole Jaws on Raid Finder difficulty.
    • Halondrus the Reclaimer
      • Fixed an issue causing druids' Travel Form to sometimes disrupt the functionality of Volatile Charge on Mythic difficulty.
      • Fixed an issue causing certain spell visual effects to become invisible on hunters affected by Feign Death.
    • Lords of Dread
      • Spell visuals for Cloud of Carrion, Fearful Trepidation, and Infiltration of Dread should no longer be erroneously removed from a Hunter when they cast Feign Death.
  • Mythic+
    • Encrypted Affix
      • Fixed an issue where a set of relics could sometimes fail to all enter combat together.
Items and Rewards
  • Legendary Memories that were previously obtainable from only Castle Nathria can now be purchased from Rendle, who now also appears in both Castle Nathria and in Haven.
  • The Chronicle of Lost Memories now costs 15 Grateful Offerings from Covenant Vendors (was 30), or 1500 Catalogued Research from Archivist Roh-Suir (was 2000), or 400 Soul Cinders from Bonesmith Heirmir (was 600).
Player versus Player
  • Brawls
    • Solo Shuffle
      • While in Solo Shuffle, item levels of at least 142 will now be temporarily raised to a minimum of 239.
        • Developers’ note: We have applied a hotfix that will increase the item level of any item acquired in Shadowlands up to at least 239 while in Solo Shuffle (items above 239 are unaffected by this change). This change will only apply to the Solo Shuffle Brawl due to the unique nature of the game mode. We want players to be able to jump into this new experience right away, but a player with extremely low HP is quickly identified as an easy kill target for each round, resulting in a predictable match for all parties involved. We selected item level 239 to allow for gear acquisition and upgrades to still feel like meaningful power progression for a character.
Torghast, Tower of the Damned
  • Jailer’s Gauntlet (Layers 1—8) along with the newest Layers (13—16) for regular runs are now available in Group Finder.

Achievements

Achievements
  • Qualified characters have been awarded the Tormented Hero: Shadowlands Season 2 achievement and title.
Classes
  • Death Knight
    • Blood
      • (2) Set Bonus: The Strength buff and Dancing Rune Weapon duration extension effects will now be correctly applied to Heart Strikes cast by the Death Knight’s Dancing Rune Weapons.
    • Unholy
      • (4) Set Bonus: Harvest Time will now be correctly applied when the target is killed by Soul Reaper.
  • Shaman
    • Enhancement
      • Lava Lash will once again refresh Flame Shock on your primary target.
      • Fixed an issue where refreshing Flame Shocks with Lava Lash would not prioritize targets with Lashing Flames in some situations.
Dungeons and Raids
  • Sepulcher of the First Ones
    • Adjusting the location of devourers in Ephemeral Plains to help make pulls clearer and reduce the concentration of enemies.
    • Vigilant Guardian
      • Vigilant Guardian’s health reduced by 5% on Raid Finder difficulty.
    • Lihuvim, Principal Architect
      • Degeneration Automa’s Degenerate now has a maximum range of 30 yards.
    • Halondrus the Reclaimer
      • Decreased the amount of damage Eternity Overdrive gains per application to 42% of its original value on all difficulties (was 50%).
      • Fixed an issue that caused Halondrus to sometimes delay Relocation Form while casting other spells in quick succession.
      • Fixed an issue that caused Shatter to not display its entire visual effect if Projected Textures were disabled in System settings.
      • Fixed an issue that caused the stone gates in the Shimmering Cliffs to not close properly when the encounter ends in failure.
  • Mythic+
    • Encrypted Affix
      • You now only need to destroy 1 relic to summon your desired automa. After destroying the first relic in a set, the other two are destroyed automatically.
        • Developers’ note: This should be a small quality of life improvement in terms of both the amount of damage required to summon an automa (especially on bosses), and the amount of time extra nameplates spend on the screen.
      • Fixed an issue where the wrong automa could be summoned after defeating a set of relics.
      • Adjusted the spawn locations of several Xy Relic Dealers.
      • Halls of Atonement
        • Echelon
          • Fixed an issue causing Relics to not properly spawn when arriving in the encounter area.
      • The Necrotic Wake
        • Amarth
          • Fixed an issue causing Relics to not properly spawn.
        • Surgeon Stitchflesh
          • Fixed an issue that caused Stitchflesh’s Creation to hit Wo, Vy or Urh automa with Meat Hook.
            • Developers’ note: The Vy Interceptor frequently teleports to a new location, which can be a frustrating obstacle to a well-aimed Meat Hook during the encounter. This change should remove the unfair overlap of these two abilities.
  • Tazavesh: So’leah’s Gambit
    • Hylbrande
      • Vault Purifiers no longer immediately attack players as soon as they land.
Items and Rewards
  • The Sandworn Chest minimap icon will no longer appear once a player has looted the chest once that day.
  • The Sandworn Chest can now be looted by more players before despawning.
  • Fixed an issue where Reclaimer’s Intensity Core trinket would unintentionally pull nearby enemies toward the user after the Automa Medic expires. It now has learned who’s friendly and who’s not.
Player versus Player
  • Fixed an issue with the trinket quest “A New Deal” that prevented the trinkets from being obtainable by players as intended.
    • Developers’ note: If you’re still encountering the issue and can’t see the trinket rewards, relogging back into the game should resolve it.
