With scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, we’ll make tuning adjustments that are primarily targeted at Hero Talents that are unperforming in various types of content.
In PvP combat, we’re continuing to improve underperforming specs, address over- and under-performing specs, and either increase or reduce burst damage for specs that need it or have a bit too much.
DEMON HUNTER Developers’ notes: Aldrachi Reaver performance has been below its alternative Hero Talent options, so we’re buffing some of its effects to reduce the disparity. Havoc Death Sweep damage increased by 10%. Developers’ notes: This resolves an issue from a previous update where Blade Dance damage was increased, but Death Sweep’s damage was not correctly updated to match. The base damage of Death Sweep is intended to be 30% more than that of Blade Dance. Aldrachi Reaver: Reaver’s Glaive damage increased by 15%.

Our recent adjustments to Guardian have made the Elune’s Chosen build stronger than intended. We’re going to take steps to bring this back in line with realm restarts during scheduled weekly maintenance this week.
Guardian Thrash direct damage reduced by 25%. Elune’s Favored now heals for 15% of Arcane damage dealt (was 25%).
Thrash direct damage reduced by 25%.
Elune’s Favored now heals for 15% of Arcane damage dealt (was 25%).
We’re deploying some tuning for tanks with scheduled weekly maintenance, as we feel that tanking has fallen behind our intentions for keeping up with the incoming damage in Mythic+. We’re focusing on two goals.
Increase passive mitigation to broadly reduce damage for tank specs that underperform in higher keys.
Increase uptime and effectiveness on some cooldowns. This should help underperforming specs to better cover periods of heavy damage.
We’re hopeful that these changes will help bridge the gap between tank specs, and we will continue to monitor and tune as necessary.
Death Knight Blood Developers’ notes: We are looking at smoothing out the damage intake of Blood outside of their cooldown window by increasing the consistency and uptime of their Apex Talent. To further help these windows of high damage intake we are also increasing their Health and Death Strike healing. Dancing Rune Weapon grants 25% Parry (was 20%). Blood Fortification grants 40% Stamina (was 35%). Improved Death Strike healing increased to 15% (was 5%). Dance of Midnight grants Dancing Rune Weapon for 8 seconds (was 6 seconds). Dance of Midnight chance to proc increased to 12.5% (was 10%).

Well this is a fun bug, and it’s so weird I don’t know if I can explain it right. I haven’t seen this one posted anywhere. I somehow manage to find the weirdest stupid bugs!
I decided to redo my library, which is made in an empty stairwell, and figured I’d attach a second empty stairwell (with a closet inbetween to avoid the known bug) on the 2nd floor of the existing library. That way if nothing I did was better than what I had, I could just keep the existing, and having it so close to the existing library made it easy to move elements I wanted to keep.
Since you know, we don’t have a save option yet.
So I got to the point where I knew I’d keep the new library, and set to moving all the attached rooms so I could delete the exiting library and put the new into place.
It all went exactly as I planned, I got almost everything put back into place, until I went to put one of the closets on the second floor (which is part of a window scene).
There is no second floor, it’s a blank void, and it shows there’s a third floor, but there’s nothing there.
The Siege of Orgrimmar will be available for raid testing on the MoP Classic PTR this weekend. May 8 at 10:00 a.m. PDT - May 11 at 8:00 a.m. Thank you for testing with us!

Hello!
We want to follow up on our previous post about issues we encountered with the new Voidforge bonus roll system. The Voidforge system is a brand new system using new tech that enables players to earn their desired myth track gear utilizing a bonus roll currency called Nebulous Voidcores to improve the player experience of gearing during Season 1 of Midnight.
What Happened?
We tested the system on our internal environment to make sure it was working as intended and fix issues, but there was a subtle bug we missed that we can now see was a result of a limitation in our internal test environment.
This new bonus roll system is intended to work like this: every time you use your Nebulous Voidcore on an additional piece of endgame loot, whether in Mythic+ Dungeons, Raids, Bountiful Delves, or Prey, it saves a record of the piece of loot and checks it off a list tied to your character, so that you shouldn’t receive the same piece of loot again. After we launched 12.0.5 (and before we fixed the bug), when players queued with other players into M+ dungeons, Bountiful Delves or Raids, it was possible for the roll data to sometimes save to the wrong database, leading to duplicate rolls.
How Could That Happen?
We’ve re-enabled Void Incursions (the major attack portion of Void Assaults) following the deployment of our fix for the issue, and we’re seeing good results.
Thank you for your patience, and good luck defending Zul’Aman!
We’ve discovered a new issue with Void Assault Incursions (the major attack), and while we investigate and design a fix for it, we’re disabling Incursions.
The Void Incursions should wind down and cease over the next hour or so, and we’ll re-enable them as soon as we’ve got a fix for the underlying issue.
Thank you!
We’ve received reports of some game instability occurring on the PTR, most notably when changing zones or during the Siegecrafter Blackfuse fight in the Siege of Orgrimmar raid. We are currently investigating the issue.
We’ll have another Siege of Orgrimmar raid playtest soon, for additional testing.
Thank you for helping us test the raid.
We have recently sent out a large hotfix to address the issues for Unholy that came with the 12.0.5 update. Part of this change was updating Festering Scythe to be a buff on the player that increases their disease tick rate instead of a debuff on the target. The underlying issue here was proving to be problematic for a number of reasons and we felt like this would be the safest approach for now.
We will continue to monitor any potential issues and we appreciate the patience and understanding.
Updated 12:15 p.m. PDT April 24
About an hour ago, we enabled the Midnight Keystone Myth Achievement, and it has been going out to players who qualified.
–
In the 12.0.5 patch, we’re introducing the new achievement Midnight Keystone Myth - Season One. This new achievement rewards a saddle that can be exchanged for a mount of your choice once you’ve attained a Mythic+ Rating of at least 3400 during Midnight Season 1.
At this time, we’re working to fix a bug with the new achievement and we’ve disabled it in this region (The Americas and Oceania).
We’re working to enable the achievement as soon as possible, and when the fix is deployed, all players who qualify will receive the achievement. Thank you for your patience!

With hotfixes that began rolling out a couple of hours ago and are now applicable in all instances, we’ve preliminarily addressed a bug in 12.0.5 where rolling on loot did not remove the received item from the pool for subsequent Bonus Rolls, which made it possible for players to receive the same item from a Bonus Roll.
It is now safe to roll on loot. Newly rolled items will now correctly remove the item from the bonus pool.
We’ll have more information to share tomorrow about this issue and the next steps we’re taking to remediate the situation for affected players.
Thank you very much for your feedback and understanding.
During our routine testing with realms offline to deploy the new patch, we discovered a critical bug in Housing that would cause unacceptable errors for some players.
Fixing this bug is a top priority for us, and while we work on it, we’ve decided to open realms on patch 12.0.5 with Housing and Neighborhoods disabled in this region (The Americas and Oceania).
Once we have a fix developed and tested, we will perform an additional brief maintenance in this region to bring Housing back online for everyone.

I had a massive seizure last night due to the teleporters inside the voidspire raid. When you use them it causes a sudden shift from the darkness of the void around you to a VERY BRIGHT flash spiral screen. I am not typically photosensitive with my epilepsy, so this came as a huge surprise. I DO have photosensitivity mode on. It makes no difference. There is no reason that this TELEPORTER needs to have this effect. This could literally be a matter of someone DYING because of lack of accessibility features or a VERY specific warning. Along with me, I am told that there were several other light sensitive folks in the raid that needed a moment after that flash screen as well.
THIS NEEDS TO BE CHANGED IMMEDIATELY FOR THE SAFETY OF EPILEPTIC AND LIGHT SENSITIVE PLAYERS, OR A SPECIFIC WARNING NEEDS TO BE ADDED FOR THIS RAID.

Update April 15, 7:15 p.m. PDT
Yesterday, we implemented the hotfixes described above to support core gameplay in instances in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary. Unfortunately, these changes were impaired by bugs that did not appear in our pre-release testing. The result was unintended behavior of drops for both solo and group players. For example: one bug resulted in some players becoming completely disallowed from rolling on loot.
With an update we sent to the live game a few minutes ago, we have reverted the original changes while we investigate these bugs.
Thank you for your feedback.
We’ve observed a significant number of Burning Crusade players entering dungeons and then participating in no meaningful gameplay, often while only one party member plays through the instance. When this is prominent, it can lead to detrimental economic effects, among other concerns, so we’re implementing a series of hotfixes to address it.

Greetings!
With the release of patch 12.0.5, we’re introducing two new achievements for players pushing the upper limits of Mythic+: Keystone Myth and Umbral Champion: Midnight Season One.
If you’ve already completed the existing milestones and are looking for additional goals to pursue, Keystone Myth and Umbral Champion are intended to offer that next step.
Upon reaching 3400 Mythic+ rating, players will earn a Timelost Saddle (earned once per warband per season). This item can be brought to Lindormi in Silvermoon or the Timeways, where it can be exchanged for a mount of your choice from a curated selection. This includes Keystone Master and Keystone Legend mounts from previous seasons, as well as all new mounts being added to the pool.
We want to give dedicated Mythic+ players something that continues to feel rewarding over time, while also creating a path to revisit some older rewards you may have missed along the way.
