War Within And Cataclysm Classic Hotfixes: September 5th

We have a new batch of hotfixes today for retail and Cata Classic.

There’s a whole lot to check out, from class changes to Delve adjustments, quest improvements, the Earthen food changes, and more. All dungeons are now also available for leveling after the campaign has been completed on at least one character! There’s also a very specific change where the spirit mount in Draenor ghostform doesn’t have skyriding anymore!

  • If you die in Draenor, your temporary spectral mount will no longer use skyriding.

Items

  • Lowered the rarity of the Lamplighter Supply Satchel from Epic to Uncommon to better reflect its contents, which have not changed.
  • Hanna’s Locket toy now has a longer cooldown and cannot be used in combat or dungeons.

Races

  • Increased the effect of the Earthen Well Fed secondary stat bonus.
  • Belga’s gems are now edible to Earthen, with improved quality and greatly reduced costs.
