Hotfixes for April 3: Salvaging 9000 in Season of Discovery and Zandalar Buff in Classic Era

Two hotfixes have just gone live, one for Season of Discovery and one for Classic Era realms.

In Season of Discovery, the quest Salvaging the Salvagematic is once again obtainable after completing Savagematic 9000. This quest is picked up from Ziri Littlesprocket inside the Gnomregan raid.

There’s another hotfix that seems to have been mistakenly listed with Season of Discovery, but is most likely for Classic Era realms. This fix ensures that the Spirit of Zandalar buff will go out to players in Booty Bay when The Heart of Hakkar is turned in. This quest isn’t yet available in Season of Discovery, but the fix will be needed eventually when the Zul’Gurub raid opens.

Season of Discovery

Fixed an issue with the Spirit of Zandalar buff given out by turning in the “Heart of Hakkar” quest not being granted to players in Booty Bay.

Season of Discovery

Fixed an issue that was preventing the Blood Moon event from working properly.
Hunter
- Fixed an issue where the Frenzy tooltip on the master Hunter now correctly shows 6% instead of the incorrect 40%. This has no effect on the actual damage done by the pet.
Shaman
- Electromantic Caster Mail set – Reduced Lightning Bolt cast time reduction to 0.1 seconds (was 0.2 seconds).
  - Developer’s note: This set bonus was really strong and resulted in 10% more Lightning Bolts. We’ve reduced the cast time reduction to avoid the possibility of this older set bonus not being replaced with later Phase 3 gear.
- Fixed an issue with Way of Earth that caused it to continually trigger the global cooldown while dual-wielding.
