Patch 9.1

Classes

• Druid

  •  Born Anew's ( Conduit) primary stat bonus reduces to 20 upon the beginning of a new encounter.

    • Developers' note: The intent of this bonus is to provide a benefit when using resurrections in combat. But it is best to avoid situations where players might feel compelled to min/max something like this before starting a pull.
•  Priest

  • Shadow

    •  Shadow Crash's (Talent) ground visual will now match the area effect.
    •  Void Volley's (PvP Talent) ground visuals will now match the area effect and has more defined edges.
•  Warrior

  • Arms

    • Fixed an issue where  Swift Patrol (Niya Soulbind) caused the auto-attack timer to reset.

• Players now have a 2 second grace period to keep their vision of targets within the area contained by the  Soul Chains between the Soul Cages during the Mor'geth encounter.
• Reduced the number of Prince Renathals in Sinfall. Press F to pay respects.

• Sanctum of Domination

  • Defeating Sylvanas Windrunner on Mythic difficulty will now reward 2 Vengeance's  Reins.
  • Remnant of Ner'zhul

    • Players can no longer cause a second orb to become non-interactable while carrying an Orb of Torment.
• Plaguefall

  • You must now defeat the first three bosses of the dungeon before the door to Margrave Stradama opens on all difficulties.

    • Developers' note: The first two bosses of the dungeon were frequently being skipped in lower-difficulty dungeons, typically by groups who were trying to earn  Renown much faster than intended. To improve players'  Renown earnings, we've also added a chance for Renown to be earned by completing layers in Torghast (see hotfix below).

•  Teleporter Repair Kits should no longer have a Unique count and will now stack to 50.
•  Repaired Riftkeys will also now stack to 50.

  • Developers' note: Early in development,  Teleporter Repair Kits and  Repaired Riftkeys were only available from the vendor. Based on player feedback of not knowing if they were worth purchasing, we decided to have them drop occasionally as well. Now that these items dropped and became out of player's control, we should have removed the unique cap on the  Teleporter Repair Kits then. Also, since you have access to purchasing the  Teleporter Repair Kits or Repaired Rift Keys, we are disabling them from going to mail if you loot one with a full inventory so they will no longer fill up your mailbox.
• The item levels of  Conduits sold by the Rated PvP vendor have been corrected.
• Fixed an issue where the  Salvaged Fusion Amplifier was not dropping for Marksmanship and Beastmaster Hunters.

• Fixed an issue during “ Nal'ragas” that caused internal text to be visible to users of certain nameplate addons.

•  Renown is now a possible reward from Torghast completions, with better chances at  Renown coming from higher Torghast difficulties.

Classes

• Druid

  • Balance

    • Star Burst (PvP Talent) will no longer create stars inside the starting areas of battlegrounds and arenas.

• Soulbinds

  • Bonesmith Heirmir

    • Fixed an issue where area-of-effect spells were not granting multiple stacks of Carver's Eye for multiple targets.

• Sanctum of Domination

  • Adjusted the location where players enter the raid when an instance is restored.
  • Sylvanas Windrunner

    • Added a visual to Veil of Darkness to indicate the debuff jump radius.
    • Reduced the intensity of Banshee's Fury visual.
    • Mawforged Summoner's Curse of Lethargy now prefers targets who are not afflicted with Mawforged Souljudge's Crushing Dread.
    • Riven Debris no longer affects player pets and guardians.
    • Resolved an issue which caused Domination Arrows to have too high of health on large raid sizes.
    • Resolved an issue where Ruin could begin casting at the wrong position.

• Fallen Charger will now drop an appropriate amount of Maw loot, such as Stygia, Ve'nari Reputation, and a chance for a Korthian Armament.
• Fallen Charger will now incur the daily loot lockout when you kill it. With this change, we’ve increased the drop chance of the Reins of the Fallen Charger by 3x.
• Resolved an issue which made it possible for the Shards of Domination Rune Words Chaos Bane and Blood Link to work outside of the Maw, Korthia, Torghast, and Sanctum of Domination.
