World of Warcraft news » 6.1.2 Hotfixes: April 21

Raids and Dungeons

Blackrock Foundry

• The Blast Furnace
  • Fixed an issue where Heart of the Mountain's Tempered debuff could incorrectly persist on a player pet.

Items

• Explorer's Notebook or Garrison Scout Report used by players that already have an Exploration mission available should now be informed that they're not eligible for additional missions of that type and no longer incorrectly consume the item.

Creatures and NPCs

Spires of Arak

• Solar Magnifier should now allow players to loot it and no longer immediately despawn after being defeated.

Raids and Dungeons

Raids and Dungeons

Blackrock Foundry

• General
  • The health and damage scaling of aspects of several encounters on Normal and Heroic difficulties have been adjusted to make them less punishing for smaller raid groups, to account for reduced availability of external cooldowns and the larger relative portion of the group that must deal with certain mechanics. Overall, these changes should make the encounters easier for groups with closer to 10 raiders, while having little noticeable effect for groups with closer to 30 players.
  • Kromog
    • Stone Breath now deals up to 20% less damage on Normal and Heroic difficulties.
  • The Blast Furnace
    • Foreman Feldspar, Security Guards, Bellows Operators, Firecallers, and Engineers now have up to 15% less health on Normal and Heroic difficulties.
  • Blackhand
    • The damage over time dealt by the Impaled effect has been reduced by up to 30% on Normal and Heroic difficulties.
    • Blackhand now has up to 10% less health on Normal and Heroic difficulties.
      

Raids and Dungeons

Blackrock Foundry

• Blackhand
  • Blackhand's Marked for Death ability should no longer have a preference to target players that are already stunned during Stage Two.

PvP

Conquest Catch-Up Cap Changes

Raids and Dungeons

• Blackrock Foundry

  • Blackhand
    • Fixed an issue that was causing Blackhand's Slag Bombs to incorrectly explode instantly and the Slagged debuff to incorrectly persist on a character.

• Legacy

  • Dragon Soul, Warmaster Blackhorn: Fixed an issue that could cause the encounter to not drop loot if Goriona was damaged too quickly during the transition to Stage Two.

Collections

• Toy Box

  • Fruit Basket should no longer incorrectly have a chance to trigger trinket effects.

Items

• Checkered Flag's mount speed bonus no longer works while inside of an instance such as dungeons, raids, Arenas, or Battlegrounds.

PvP

• Chauffeured Chopper should no longer incorrectly allow players to mount up while holding a flag or orb.

• Ashran

  • Ashran Paladin Captains (Vanguard Samuelle and Avenger Turley) should no longer bubble hearth when they have low health. This should make the Take Them Out achievement more obtainable.

Items

• Robo-Rooster should correctly only be allowing one Robo-Rooster to be active at a time once more.

Classes

• Druid

  • Armor Sets
    • Tier-17 4-piece set bonus for Feral Druids should now correctly have a chance to trigger from Multistrikes.

Quests

• Legacy

  • Striking Back (Dun Morogh): Repaired Bomber should now correctly fly over Ironforge Airfield and allow players to complete the quest.

Raids and Dungeons

• Blackrock Foundry

  • The Blast Furnace
    • Phase 1
      • Furnace Engineers should now throw a bomb at players roughly every 6 seconds. Throw Bomb is now instant-cast, but the range is now 40 yards (down from 50 yards). These changes are intended to diminish the relative benefit of having two or more priests, compared to one or none: Mind Control allows for more controlled targeting of the Bombs, but does not speed up the phase as a whole.
      • Reduced the health of Heat Regulators.
  • Blackhand
    • Blackhand's health has been reduced by 5% on Mythic difficulty.

  • Reverse Piracy: Fixed an issue where the map marker for Stolen Sha'tari Vault was not updated correctly after defeating The Iron Maidens.

Raids and Dungeons

• Blackrock Foundry

  • The Iron Maidens
    • The Iron Maidens should no longer incorrectly trigger a Dreadnaught phase if they reach 100 Energy and 20% health at around the same time.
