Blizzard speaks up on recent patch issues

[Tim]

Blizzard put together an extensive list of issues in WoW that they recognize and are looking to patch. One of them that I have feel repeated victim to is the Uldaman bugs whereas you cannot combine the 2 items required to open up one of the boss doors. For new players who are in Uldaman for ~5 levels of their life, this can be extremely bothersome.

General Issues

• </p>
• Logging out inside a battleground and logging back in after the BG is completed will cause characters to be unable to queue using the Looking for Dungeon System.
• Spamming the Auto Attack button causes the character to play the attack animation even though no actual attack is done.
• Raid Assistants are unable to perform ready checks.
• Mobs will occasionally play their death animation twice after being killed.
• Mages, Warlock, and Priest cannot roll need on certain caster trinkets.

Dungeons & Raids

• </p>
• Escape from Durnhold ? At the end of the Escape from Durnholde instance Erozion teleports you back to Caverns of Time rather than where you entered the instance from.
• Halls of Reflection ? Player will get disconnected when running up the ramp to the ship.
• Gunship Encounter ? Some players may be ineligible to receive loot when this encounter is complete.
• Uldaman ? The Shaft of Tsol or the Gni'kiv Medallion cannot be traded in a cross-server party.
• Halls of Reflection ? There is a chance that the first encounter in Halls of Reflection will not start.
• Icecrown Citadel ? Oozes from the Rotface encounter will occasionally refuse to combine.

Quests

• </p>
• Horde players do not receive a parachute when the Kor'kron Troop Transport is destroyed during the quest, "Assault by Air".
• Using Plague Vials for the Quest "Test at Sea" returns an error.
• The log description for "Hot and Cold" is inconsistent with the objectives
• Using Freshly Drawn Blood for the quest "Against the Legion" returns an error.
• Queen Angerboda is not respawning correctly for the quest "The Slumbering King."
• Don Carlos is not dropping the quest item Don Carlos' Hat.
• The Duskwood Chest does not contain Klaven Mortwake's Journal needed for the quest "Klaven's Tower."
• Using the Mental Interference Rod for the quest "Teleport This!" returns an error.
• Grand Foreman Puzik Gallywix and Gallywix's Lockbox do no drop items for the quest "Mission: Possible But Not Probable."

Combat

• </p>
• Several immobilize effects are not correctly affected by diminishing returns.
• The Lightweave effect is proccing off of Fel Armor's Health Regeneration ticks.

Classes

• </p>
• Druid
  • </p>
  • While swimming in Cat form or Travel form players nameplates are clipping through their model.
  • There is an issue with the Typhoon animation not always showing.
  • Druids can appear in flight form while mounted when leaving an instance or Battleground.
• Hunter
  • </p>
  • Attempting to use the ability Call Stabled Pet after leaving a cross server instance and changing specs will result in the cooldown being set to 20+ days.
• Mage
  • </p>
  • Mage Summon Water Elemental does not fully function as a permanent pet when glyphed with Glyph of Eternal Water.
  • Frost Nova does not have a spell effect when cast.
• Paladin
  • </p>
  • Avenging Wrath and self cast Lay on Hands cannot be used within 30 seconds of each other.
• Rogue
  • </p>
  • Rogue Poison procs are missing sound.

UI

• </p>
• The dungeon finder visual UI will sometimes display inaccurate class archetype counts.
• The group ?guide? is called ?Party Leader? in chat.
• Several UI elements are displayed incorrectly in Nvidia 3D Vision.
• Alt-Tabbing in Full Screen mode while moving on click to move will cause your character to keep auto-running.
• Players cannot "Join as a Party" in the Looking for Dungeons Random Dungeon feature at certain levels.

I read that same thing and was like "W T F??" that makes no sense at all. What sort of downside could there possibly be that having friends together in a party (friends or multiboxers) cannot do LFD instances together?

I just don't get it? Is there some sort of hidden bug involved here that Blizzard fake bandaided by nerfing friendship/multiboxing here?

It just doesn't make sense to me.

after re reading am reading as "some levels Random Dungeon" so i think its to stop 70-79 as there is a cool bug u can be a in a group with a level 80 and then 68+ can go as well get get a lot off exta xp at the end that in the end makes 70-80 in like 6/10 runs a level very fast way i was going it with my new group..... maybe not though lol like like BG when u could do with 80's in AV and it was like iceing on the cake to level 70-80 and that got nuffed same thing they wont 70-80 to be a long pain in the a**

[ebony]

can not edit post agean somehow? anyway i wonted to add chars are so powerfully at level 80 they can solo a lot the pre 80 dungons so i think this is a big part off why there doing it. but there noway they would nto let level 80's group as there new way is to get guilds to play as a group and u get "guild xp" etc so i think we be ok at 80 but who knows 15-80 might be 100% pug olny system and that will suck

I've experienced more then a couple of those...

The Lightweave proc on the Fel Armor does not bother me.
But it is a fairly huge buff, stronger then other options.

I frequently get the death animation twice for killing many mobs.

The mage pet was not persistent, in the same way as a warlock or hunter pet.
If I flew over something, the pet ran along the ground beneath.
Landing, the pet would be with me (travel at flight speed).
But I'd have the 80 mobs it aggrod as I flew over them, all running at me.
5x AoE classes on a mixed team rocked for that, but still a bug.

isn't the above re: not joining a party an issue that they've identified? not something they want to implement?

Its likely to do with trying to queue for a dungeon with, for example, 68-69 in the group, where the Queue for Random Dungeon is Burning Crusade Dungeons for the 68, and Wrath dungeons for the 69, ergo, cannot queue for random dungoen...

Exactly...

This isn't a multiboxing nerf...

This is a list of BUGS not a list of FIXES. The bug is that groups at certain levels cannot use the Dungeon Finder for some reason... and they want to fix that bug.

In general yes, I am just saying that is a list of known bugs, not "patch notes".
