        • [With weekly restarts] Aberrus (4) Set Bonus: Now increases Agility by 8% (up from 5%).
  • Evoker
    • Preservation
      • Developers’ notes: We would like there to be more of a reward to using Disintegrate over Living Flame as a Preservation Evoker since it has a high Essence cost.
        • [With weekly restarts] Disintegrate damage has been increased by 15% for Preservation Evoker.
  • Hunter
    • Beast Mastery

      • [With weekly restarts] All ability damage increased by 5%.
  • Warlock
    • Developers’ notes: The high frequency of Amplify Curse has been problematic in PvP combat, so its cooldown has been increased. These changes are also noted in the PvP section below.
      • [With weekly restarts] The cooldown of Amplify Curse is now 60 seconds (was 30 seconds).
      • [With weekly restarts] Teachings of the Satyr now reduces the cooldown of Amplify Curse by 15 seconds (was 10 seconds).

Dungeons and Raids

  • Aberrus the Shadowed Crucible
    • Developer’s notes: Feedback and data from the first few weeks of Season Two have indicated that smaller raids are having a relatively difficult time defeating certain encounters within Aberrus. Part of our commitment to flex-scaling as a feature is to work towards a similar difficulty for all group sizes on non-Mythic difficulties. The following changes are designed to bring difficulty for smaller groups in line with the experience of a larger raid.
    • Rashok
      • [With weekly restarts] Reduced the number of missiles from Doom Flames on non-Mythic difficulties.
      • [With weekly restarts] Scorching Heatwave’s damage now scales with group size for non-Mythic difficulties.
    • The Forgotten Experiments
      • [With weekly restarts] Reduced Thadrion's health on lower group sizes on Heroic difficulty.

Player versus Player

  • Classes
    • Druid
      • Balance
        • Developers’ notes: Balance Druids have been overperforming due to their ability to generate so much Astral Power and deal high damage by applying dots and casting Starfall repeatedly. We’d like to reduce the effectiveness of that playstyle since it’s difficult for opponents to stop. Goldrinn’s Fang also became much more effective in Embers of Neltharion, and includes some randomness and ability to score kills unexpectedly. Finally, Owlkin Adept has been a locked-in talent for a while now and has been propping up their control a bit more than we’re comfortable with.
          • [With weekly restarts] Moonfire and Sunfire generate 4 Astral Power when cast in PvP combat (was 6).
          • [With weekly restarts] Stellar Innervation increases Astral Power generation of Moonfire and Sunfire by 50% in PvP combat (was 100%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Star Burst now grants 8 Astral Power (was 15).
          • [With weekly restarts] Owlkin Adept reduces the cast time of Cyclone and Entanglng Roots by 20% (was 30%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Goldrinn's Fang damage is reduced by 50% in PvP combat.
          • [With weekly restarts] Wrath and Starfire deal 60% increased damage in PvP combat (was 50%).
    • Hunter
      • Marksmanship
        • Developers’ notes: Marksmanship Hunters have been underperforming in different forms of PvP content.
          • [With weekly restarts] Aimed Shot damage increased by 25% in PvP combat (was 15%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Rapid Fire damage increased by 25% in PvP combat (was 15%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Arcane Shot damage increased by 25% in PvP combat (was 16%).
    • Mage
      • Fire
        • Developers’ notes: Glass Cannon is intended to have high risk and high reward with its gameplay, and we feel the risk is too low for the benefit it provides, especially when paired with Flamecannon.
        • [With weekly restarts] Glass Cannon now decreases maximum health by 20% (was 15%)
        • [With weekly restarts] Flamecannon now increases maximum health by 2% per stack (was 3%).
    • Monk
      • Mistweaver
        • Developers’ notes: Mistweavers have been overperforming compared to other healers, especially due to their mana efficiency.
          • [With weekly restarts] Soulfang Infusion now regenerates 75% less Mana in PvP combat (was 50%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Zen Spheres now cost 0.5% base Mana.
          • [With weekly restarts] Enveloping Mist now heals for 5% more in PvP combat (was 20%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Mistweaver Monks now regenerate 15% less Mana in PvP combat (was 10%).
    • Windwalker
      • Developers’ notes: Whirling Dragon Punch has felt underwhelming and we’d like it to feel impactful to use without being a major portion of a Windwalker’s damage profile.
        • [With weekly restarts] Whirling Dragon Punch damage increased by 80% in PvP Combat.
    • Priest
      • Discipline
        • Developers’ notes: Discipline has been more reliant on shields this season than we’d like. We’re increasing Atonement healing while bringing down the power of shields, with the goal of the preferred playstyle being an offensive one. We’re also targeting the mana reduction from Inner Light, as Discipline has been more mana efficient than we’d like.
          • [With weekly restarts] Power Word: Shield now absorbs 15% less damage in PvP Combat.
          • [With weekly restarts] Inner Light now reduces the mana cost of the affected spells by 10% (was 15%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Atonement healing is now 50% more effective in PvP Combat (was 40%).
    • Rogue
      • Subtlety
        • Developers’ notes: Burst damage from Subtlety has been higher than we’d like this season. We’re looking to keep the spec in a strong position while toning down their burst potential in short windows.
        • [With weekly restarts] Secret Technique damage is now reduced by 33% in PvP Combat (was 25%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Shadowstrike and Backstab damage from Weaponmaster is now 50% effective in PvP combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Flagellation’s Mastery bonus is now 80% effective in PvP combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Dark Shadow is now 67% effective in PvP combat (was 80%).
    • Shaman
      • Enhancement
        • Developers’ notes: There are a few talents that are leading to fast kills that can feel unfair when facing an Enhancement Shaman. We’re aiming to bring down the burst potential from cooldowns and increase sustained DPS.
          • [With weekly restarts] Forceful Winds is now 75% effective in PvP Combat.
          • [With weekly restarts] The damage increase to Lava Lash from Ashen Catalyst is now 33% effective in PvP Combat.
          • [With weekly restarts] Lava Lash now deals 35% increased damage in PvP Combat (was 15%).
          • [With weekly restarts] The Physical damage increase from Feral Spirit is now 33% effective in PvP Combat.
          • [With weekly restarts] The Fire, Frost, and Lightning damage increase from Elemental Spirits is now 50% effective in PvP Combat.
          • [With weekly restarts] Stormstrike now deals 75% increased damage in PvP Combat (was 50%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Windstrike now deals 75% increased damage in PvP Combat (was 50%).
      • Restoration
        • Developers’ notes: We feel Restoration Shaman is in a good spot. Rain Dance wasn’t as valuable as we were anticipating, so we’re aiming to increase its viability.
          • [With weekly restarts] Rain Dance now increases the healing done by Healing Rain by 30% (was 20%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Rain Dance now reduces the mana cost of Healing Rain by 45% (was 30%).
    • Warlock
      • Developers’ notes: Inquisitor’s Gaze has been dealing a sizeable portion of Warlock damage this season, and we’d like damage to come primarily from active spells.
        • [With weekly restarts] Fel Barrage from Inquisitor's Gaze now deals 40% reduced damage in PvP Combat.
      • Developers’ notes: The high frequency of Amplify Curse has been problematic in PvP combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] The cooldown of Amplify Curse is now 60 seconds (was 30 seconds).
        • [With weekly restarts] Teachings of the Satyr now reduces the cooldown of Amplify Curse by 15 seconds (was 10 seconds).
      • Affliction
        • Developers’ notes: We are increasing the damage of Unstable Affliction’s backlash effect to lessen the value of dispelling Affliction’s damage over time effects. It’s been lower than we’d like, in addition to healers gaining extra health this season. Additionally, we’re increasing Shadow Bolt damage as the reward for casting it is lower than we’d like.
          • [With weekly restarts] Unstable Affliction backlash damage increased by 50%.
          • [With weekly restarts] Shadow Bolt damage increased by 30% in PvP combat.
      • Demonology
        • Developers’ notes: Demonology’s healing reduction effect from their Felguard was one of the best healing reductions in the game, which didn’t feel appropriate given the class identity, how easy it is to apply, and how it can be applied to multiple targets at a time. Along with Affliction, we’re also increasing the damage of Shadow Bolt in PvP, as the reward for casting it is low.
          • [With weekly restarts] Legion Strike reduces healing taken by 20% in PvP (was 25%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Shadow Bolt damage increased by 30% in PvP combat.
      • Destruction
        • Developers’ notes: Destruction’s sustained DPS has been high and we feel this is mainly due to Shadowburn’s high multiplier. We would like for instant casts to be strong but not be the primary way to land kills.
          • [With weekly restarts] Conflagration damage is now reduced by 15% in PvP Combat (was 9%).
          • [With weekly restarts] Shadowburn damage is now increased by 15% in PvP Combat (was 45%).

Items and Rewards

  • Players can now get a Wirt's Leg drop during the Diablo promotion even if their class cannot use the weapon type.
    • Developers’ notes: We are seeing that some versions of Wirt's Leg are rarer than others due to a restriction on only seeing items your class can use. With the item being Bind on Equip, we are removing the restriction of only seeing items your class can use, so players will see a Wirt's Leg more often and can send it to an alt that can use it. Also, players can trade a version of the leg they do not need to others that do.

Player versus Player

  • Classes
    • Death Knight
      • Frost
        • Developers’ notes: Frost Death Knights have been on our radar as underperforming, but still effective in the right situations. We’re reducing their burst damage alongside their game-wide damage increases with the goal of a healthier overall damage profile.
        • [With weekly restarts] Pillar of Frost now increases Strength by 15% in PvP Combat (was 25%).
      • Unholy
        • Developers’ notes: We’ve been monitoring our changes to Reanimation and have felt its damage is too high relative to how much control Death Knight’s have over enemies’ positioning.
        • [With weekly restarts] Reanimation’s explosion now deals 15% of the targets health in Shadow damage (was 20%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Allied players can no longer see the explosion ring visual for Reanimation.
        • [With weekly restarts] Reanimation’s stun debuff is now using the correct spell icon.
    • Demon Hunter
      • Havoc
        • Developers’ notes: Our goal with Rain from Above is for it to have situational offensive and defensive usage. With recent increases to its damage, we’re seeing it used for offense more often than intended, so we’re bringing its damage down.
        • [With weekly restarts] Rain from Above (PvP Talent) Fel Lance damage reduced to 8% of target’s max health (was 10%).
    • Mage
      • Fire
        • Fixed an issue that caused Glass Cannon to not increase the damage of Ignite.
      • Frost
        • Fixed an issue that caused Frost Bomb to not grant a charge of Flurry when dispelled.
    • Monk
      • [With weekly restarts] Strength of Spirit now increases the healing of Expel Harm by up to 50% based on your missing health in PvP Combat (was 100%).
      • Windwalker
        • Developers’ notes: Expel Harm’s healing was dramatically increased with Season 2. We’re happy with the base healing of the spell, but modifiers from Reverse Harm and Strength of Spirit are making it more powerful than we intended.
        • [With weekly restarts] Reverse Harm now increases the healing done by Expel Harm by 30% (was 60%).
    • Priest
      • Holy
        • Developers’ notes: Holy Priests have continued to underperform in PvP, so we’re buffing several of their primary healing spells.
        • [With weekly restarts] Renew healing increased by 34% in PvP Combat (was 22%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Flash Heal healing increased by 52% in PvP Combat (was 40%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Heal healing increased by 57% in PvP Combat (was 43%).
        • [With weekly restarts] Holy Word: Sanctify healing increased by 10% in PvP Combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Holy Word: Serenity healing increased by 25% in PvP Combat (was 15%).
    • Shaman
      • Enhancement, Elemental
      • Developers’ notes: The healing contribution from Earth Shield for the hybrid Shaman specs is above our target in PvP after recent buffs to the spell.
      • [With weekly restarts] Earth Shield healing reduced by 30% in PvP Combat for Enhancement and Elemental.
    • Warlock
      • [With weekly restarts] Call Observer now has 8% of the Warlock's health (down from 20%).
      • Destruction
        • Developers’ notes: Destruction’s sustained DPS in PvP especially with instant casts is higher than we’d like. We feel Chaos Bolt is in a good state, so we’re targeting other areas of the kit to bring down their DPS.
        • [With weekly restarts] Incinerate damage reduced by 10% in PvP Combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Shadowburn damage increased by 45% in PvP Combat (was 65%).
    • Warrior
      • Arms
        • Developers’ notes: We feel Arms Warrior’s burst window has been more effective than we would like in PvP. We’re shifting their damage profile slightly to increase their consistent pressure but decrease their burst damage.
        • [With weekly restarts] Sharpen Blade cooldown increased to 30 seconds and duration decreased by 2 seconds.
        • [With weekly restarts] Skullsplitter now causes expired bleeds to deal 65% damage (was 100%) in PvP Combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Deep Wounds damage increased by 15% in PvP Combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Rend no longer deals 15% reduced damage in PvP Combat.
        • [With weekly restarts] Fueled by Violence now heals for 70% (was 85%) of damage dealt by Deep Wounds in PvP Combat.
12 May 2023: Another big WoW Dragonflight hotfix update gets released

      • Fixed an issue causing Light's Hammer to damage too frequently with the 4-Set equipped.
      • Holy Prism and Light's Hammer now grant a shield when cast with Fading Light's Blessing of Dusk.

    • Scalecommander Sarkareth
      • Adjusted the damage of Echoing Howl to scale appropriately with group size.
        • Developers’ notes: We discovered an issue that was causing the total damage Echoing Howl was doing to all players was scaling too high in larger raid sizes and too low in smaller raid sizes. This change works to even out the damage and make the difficulty more consistent across all raid sizes.
  • Mythic+
    • Developers’ notes: We have been closely monitoring live data and player feedback since the launch of Dragonflight season 2. Based on this, we've made a number of targeted adjustments to outlier bosses as well as reduced some of the timers that we feel better reflect the difficulty of certain dungeons.
    • The time to complete The Underrot has been reduced to 30 minutes (was 32 minutes).
    • The time to complete Freehold has been reduced to 30 minutes (was 31 minutes).
    • The time to complete Uldaman: Legacy of Tyr has been reduced to 35 minutes (was 38 minutes).

        • Consume absorbs 25% less damage.
    • Freehold
      • Alliance characters trying to access Kul Tiras to enter Freehold should no longer be teleported back to Stormwind.
    • Halls of Infusion
      • Fixed an issue that allowed Containment Apparatus' Containment Beam to target pets.
    • Neltharion’s Lair
      • Naraxas
        • Toxic Retch damage reduced by 30%.
        • Hurling Rocks damage reduced by 20%.
      • Dargrul the Underking
        • Increased the cast time of Magma Wave to 2.5 seconds (was .25 seconds).
        • Lava Geysers now persist for 60 seconds (Was infinite).
        • Flame Gout occurs every 3 seconds (was 2.5 seconds).
    • Vortex Pinnacle
      • Slipstreams that spawn after defeating Ertan and Altairus now grant players 100% movement speed until enter entering combat.
      • Altairus
        • Biting Cold damage reduced by 25%.

Enemies and NPCs

      • Resolved an issue with capturing the Risen Spirits during events in Ashran.

          • Aimed Shot should no longer rarely deal half damage in PvP situations.
      • Warlock
        • Demonology
          • Eye of the Observer from Call Observer can now only trigger a Laserbeam once per second per enemy.

Professions

  • Crafting orders for Undulating Sporecloak should now be viewable and completable.

Quests

  • During the cave dive “Successful Interventions” Mr. Sunflower will be far more welcoming.
  • Cast Off Shells in the world quest “Shell Corporation” should now only be lootable by the player who feeds a Redolent Whelk a Succulent Looking Deepcap.

Scenarios

  • Horrific Visions
    • Fixed an issue where Sanity was being drained too quickly in Horrific Visions.

Wrath of the Lich King Classic

  • Sara will now receive a message on Vezax's death that forces her to spawn immediately.
    • Developers’ notes: This should prevent the issue that a few rocket boot equipped players experience where it's currently possible, if you run fast enough into Yogg's room after Vezax's death, that you start the encounter before Sara has spawned and results in a Yogg fight that can't progress past phase 1. Thanks speedrunners!
9 May 2023 huge hotfix update and class changes

Classes

  • Demon Hunter
    • Fixed an issue that caused targets with Misery in Defeat's debuff to be treated as if they were crowd-controlled and thus avoided by some skills (i.e. Avenger's Shield).
    • Havoc
      • [With weekly restarts] Melee auto attack damage increased by 10%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Demon's Bite damage increased by 10%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Demon Blades damage increased by 10%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Felblade damage increased by 10%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Isolated Prey now increases Eye Beam damage by 30% when striking 1 target (was 25%).
    • Vengeance
      • Developer's notes: The rules and behavior for how Fiery Brand refreshed and spread with the Burning Alive talent had some historic inconsistencies and minor bugs that became more egregious when the talented second charge and the 10.1 Set Bonus were introduced. Alongside the fix described above, we wanted to clarify the behavior players should expect moving forward:
        • Applying Fiery Brand to a target already afflicted by your Fiery Brand will refresh its duration, to a maximum of 10 seconds.
        • With the Burning Alive talent selected, only Fiery Brands applied directly (by casting the spell or from the Set bonus) are capable of spreading.
        • Every 2 seconds while a spread-capable Fiery Brands persists, it will try to spread to a nearby target that does not already have a Fiery Brand applied. There is no longer a hidden rule preventing a target from being spread to multiple times in a short period.
        • When a Fiery Brand successfully spreads to a new target, the duration of the spread will always be 10 seconds, regardless of the original or remaining duration of the source it spread from.
      • Fixed an issue causing Fiery Brand to continue to spread after its expiration.
      • Fixed an issue that prevented Immolation Aura from benefitting some bonuses, including (but not limited to) Fiery Demise.
      • Fixed an issue that prevented Fiery Brand from benefitting from Holy Priest's Symbol of Hope cooldown reduction.
      • [With weekly restarts] Shear damage increased by 10%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Fracture damage increased by 10%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Soul Carver damage increased by 20%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Focused Cleave now increases Soul Cleave's damage to your primary target by 40% (was 30%).
      • [With weekly restarts] Soulcrush now applies Frailty to your primary target for 8 seconds (was 5 seconds).
  • Druid
    • Balance
      • Developers' Note: In some single target scenarios it's still looking optimal to cast Wrath in Lunar Eclipse. That doesn't meet our goal for how Balance should play, so we're reducing Wrath's effectiveness outside Solar Eclipse and increasing its effectiveness inside Solar Eclipse to correct this. We're also boosting Balance's single target damage a small amount.
      • [With weekly restarts] Wrath Astral Power generation reduced to 8 (down from 10).
      • [With weekly restarts] Wrath damage decreased by 5%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Solar Eclipse now increases Wrath damage by 40% (up from 20%).
      • [With weekly restarts] Soul of the Forest now increases Wrath's Astral Power generation while in Solar Eclipse by 60% (up from 30%).
      • [With weekly restarts] Damage dealt by Faerie Dragons summoned by Denizen of the Dream increased by 25%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Friend of the Fae now increases your Arcane and Nature spell damage by 10% (up from 8%).
      • Primordial Arcanic Pulsar no longer triggers Nature's Grace if the player does not have any Eclipse.
    • Feral
      • [With weekly restarts] Rampant Ferocity now deals 30% of damage dealt by Ferocious Bite to nearby enemies (down from 35%).
      • [With weekly restarts] Tear Open Wounds now deals 50% of Rip damage it consumes (down from 60%).
    • Guardian
      • Fixed an issue causing some Guardian talents and abilities to incorrectly buff non-class spells.
    • Restoration
      • [With weekly restarts] All healing abilities increased by 2%.
  • Evoker
    • Fire Breath will now correctly refund its mana cost if it is canceled while empowering.
  • Monk
    • Mistweaver
      • [With weekly restarts] Essence Font healing increased by 15%.
  • Paladin
    • Holy
      • [With weekly restarts] All healing abilities decreased by 3%. Does not apply to PvP Combat.
      • [With weekly restarts] Avenging Crusader now transfers 500% of damage done into healing (was 575%).
  • Rogue
    • Assassination
      • Fixed an issue that caused some skills to be unaffected by Assassination's Mastery: Potent Assassin, including Kingsbane's initial damage, Sepsis, and Mutilate's damage from Vicious Venoms.
      • Fixed a bug that prevented Lethality's critical damage bonus from affecting Subtlety's Shadowstrike attacks.
    • Outlaw
      • Fixed a bug that prevented Lethality's critical damage bonus from affecting Outlaw’s Sinister Strike attacks.
    • Subtlety
      • Developers’ notes: Class talents that previously modified all damage from spell schools are, in most cases, being updated and standardized with other similar effects to no longer affect external damage sources outside of those that belong to that class. The changes to the below talents impact Subtlety’s damage enough to warrant compensation, which is the reason for the buff to all ability damage.
      • [With weekly restarts] All ability damage increased by 4%.
      • [With weekly restarts] Veiltouched, Deeper Daggers, and Dark Brew no longer affect damage from sources outside of Class and Spec abilities available to Subtlety.
  • Warrior
    • Protection
      • [With weekly restarts] Fixed an issue where Battering Ram was providing a passive 20% critical strike damage bonus to all damage rather than to Shield Charge.

Items and Rewards

  • [With weekly restarts] Algeth'ar Puzzle Box shared cooldown increased to 30 seconds, effect decreased by 30% for Unholy specialization.
  • Fixed an issue where World Boss items were previewing the incorrect item levels in the Dungeon Journal.
  • Big Slick in the City's Conch Whistle is no longer usable in combat, or inside instances and raids.
  • In Zaralek Cavern, all players with at least one stack of Insidious Insight will now receive a message indicating when another player has claimed the Seething Cache.

Player versus Player

  • Druid
    • Restoration
      • Developers’ notes: Restoration Druid has fallen behind other healers in PvP since the release of 10.0.7. We’d like to ease some previous PvP adjustments that we no longer feel are necessary.
      • [With weekly restarts] Budding Leaves' effectiveness now reduced by 30% in PvP Combat (was 50%).
  • Monk
    • Mistweaver
      • Developers’ notes: Mistweavers have received significant Quality of Life changes throughout the last few patches that have increased their effectiveness in PvP to a point where we see them as oppressive to the viability of other specializations. We’re reducing many of the PvP multipliers associated with Ancient Teachings and their damage throughput, and we’re increasing the effectiveness of Renewing Mist to encourage Healing over Time management and reducing Vivify’s healing to keep their casting throughput relatively similar.
      • [With weekly restarts] Ancient Teachings' effectiveness is now increased by 120% in PvP Combat (was 150%).
      • [With weekly restarts] Blackout Kick no longer deals 25% increased damage for Mistweaver Monks in PvP Combat.

  • Herbalism
    • Fixed a bug that caused the Zaralek Glowbur aura to frequently break stealth and engage enemies.
    • Fixed a bug that prevented the themed aura extension effect from applying when gathering basic, non-themed gathering nodes.

Quests

  • Fixed an issue where the minimap would sometimes not populate for players after accepting “Murloc Mania.”
  • The “Here We Go Again” campaign header will now inform players if they reach the end of the currently available campaign content and need to wait for more to be unlocked.
  • Zaralek Cavern
    • “Aiding the Accord: Sniffenseeking” will now auto-complete the dig objective if you've already done a dig with Myrrit this week. Players currently affected will need to abandon and re-accept the quest in Valdrakken.

Quests

  • Fixed an issue where the creatures required to complete the quest Flesh To Bone were not spawning frequently enough.
  • Players who die and release spirit during the Sniffenseeking puzzle "Your Weight in Gold" will now correctly appear at the graveyard inside of the Mysterious Cave.
  • During the Sniffenseek dig "Heart of Iron', Myrrit will be more helpful, to suggest sniffing for the final chest after the key is found.
  • The Smelly Bag for the Sniffenseeking tutorial "The Buddy System" should now re-appear if players do not loot or accidentally discard the key.

Forbidden Reach

  • Developers’ note: In an effort to be clear about its availability, an existing once-per-day bonus amount of Elemental Overflow per rare elite in the Forbidden Reach has been changed to be awarded from the creature's respective daily Bonus Objective quest. This should result in roughly the same amount of Elemental Overflow awarded per first-time kill, but now it should be better communicated how often this bonus amount is offered.

Quests

    • Developers’ note: The quest "Primordial Answers" was never meant to be sharable and is now marked as such.
