General
⢠Resilience Rating: The reduction to the percent chance to get a critical strike now also reduces the damage dealt by damage over time effects by the same percentage.
⢠Corrected the damage modifier calculation for Resilience when the attacker has bonus critical strike damage.
⢠Power Regeneration: Any effect which triggers a change in your rate of power regeneration (Mana, Rage, Energy, Focus) will now cause an immediate reward of some power at the old rate of increase, and then begin new âticksâ of power at the new rate approximately 2 seconds later. This was done to improve functionality of abilities such as Evocation and Innervate so that they did not have wasted âticksâ.
⢠Mac Movie Capture: the Mac client can now capture in-game video to QuickTime movie files using a configurable choice of codec (H.264, Motion JPEG, or Pixlet), resolution, and frame rate. Two new entries have been added to the Key Bindings dialog for start/stop recording and for cancellation of a recording. For more detailed configuration options please see the Mac Options panel in game. Mac OS X 10.4.9 and QuickTime 7.1.6 or better are required. Not all machines have enough performance to smoothly capture video at high frame rates; end user experimentation will be required to find appropriate settings for each system.
⢠Pets are now affected by Paladin greater blessings.
⢠Non combat pets may not be selected as the target for spells or abilities.
⢠Being attacked by guardians, such as summoned Treants, will no longer automatically causes neutral guards to attack you.
⢠Meeting Stones can no longer be used to summon players that do not meet the level requirements.
PVP
⢠Items that are indicated as quest items in their tooltips and have a âuseâ or âequipâ ability will not work in PvP arenas.
Druids
⢠Cat Form (Night Elf) melee attack range was too short compared to Tauren Cat Form and other attack ranges. It has been increased.
⢠Cyclone: It is no longer possible to Cyclone two targets at the same time in the outdoor world.
⢠Cyclone: Paladin Auras, Trueshot Aura, and Aspect of the Pack will now be automatically reactivated when Cyclone wears off of a victim who had one of the abilities active.
⢠Enrage: If this buff is clicked off early, the armor penalty it causes will now be removed as well.
⢠Enrage and Furor should no longer initiate combat, though it will prevent rage decay for the duration.
⢠Entangling Roots: It is no longer possible to have Entangling Roots on two targets at the same time in the outdoor world.
⢠Entangling Roots: It is no longer possible to have more than one rank of this spell active on a player.
⢠Force of Nature: Using this spell in a neutral town will no longer cause its victim to be attacked by town guards. It also will no longer cause nearby party members to lose stealth.
⢠Hibernate and Entangling Roots duration against PvP targets has been reduced to 10 seconds.
⢠Hurricane: This spell is now affected by area damage caps. Its bonus damage coefficients have also been increased.
⢠Hurricane: A tooltip error in rank 3 has been corrected.

⢠Mangle: The duration remaining graphic will now display properly for Mangle after it has been refreshed on a target. It will also no longer sometimes apply the Mangle debuff to nearby targets when the Mangle victim is killed by Mangle.

⢠Aspect of the Cheetah: This ability will now cause Hunters to become dazed when struck while sitting.
⢠Aspect of the Pack: This ability will now cause party members to become dazed when struck while sitting.
⢠Aspect of the Viper: This ability has received a slight redesign. The amount of mana regained will increase as the Hunterâs percentage of mana remaining decreases. At about 60% mana, it is equivalent to the previous version of Aspect of the Viper. Below that margin, it is better (up to twice as much mana as the old version); while above that margin, it will be less effective. The mana regained never drops below 10% of intellect every 5 sec. or goes above 50% of intellect every 5 sec.
⢠Freezing Trap and Scare Beast duration against PvP targets has been reduced to 10 seconds.
⢠Hunter's Mark: The duration remaining graphic will now display properly for Hunter's Mark after it has been refreshed on a target, and will properly consume mana when recasting it to refresh its duration.
⢠Kill Command will not charge the hunter mana if their pet is on passive.
⢠Misdirection: Items used while Misdirection is active will now consume a charge correctly.
⢠Steady Shot: The tooltip stating the percentage of Attack Power gained by Steady Shot was inaccurate and has been corrected. The damage remains unchanged.
⢠Volley: This spell is now affected by area damage caps. Its bonus damage coefficients have also been increased. It also correctly consumes charges of Misdirection.
Mages
⢠Arcane Missiles: Some procs were not triggered by this spell and now will be (such as Eye of Magtheridon). The tooltip for this spell will now update correctly when a Mage is affected by spell haste.
⢠Blizzard: This spell is now affected by area damage caps. Its bonus damage coefficients have also been increased.
⢠Dragon's Breath: The movement-slowing component of this spell is now properly considered a Snare. Immunity and clearing effects will now work properly with it.

⢠Hammer of Wrath cast time reduced to .5 seconds, global cooldown reduced to .5 seconds.
⢠Illumination: Paladins will now correctly gain mana from this ability if they sit down to drink right after a healing crit, and receiving mana from this ability will no longer cause a Paladin who is sitting to stand up.

⢠Redoubt: This ability can now trigger while the Paladin is sitting.
⢠Reckoning: This ability can now trigger while the Paladin is sitting.
⢠Righteous Defense: In some cases this ability would fail to work properly when the Paladin casting it had just been crowd controlled by a creature. That is now fixed.
⢠Seal of Righteousness: The tooltip for this ability has been improved. It now displays a different number for one-handed weapons and two-handed weapons, and adjusts to the speed of your current weapon. It displays a single number, rather than a range of numbers for different handedness and speeds.
⢠Seal of Vengeance: The damage from this ability will now stack properly when two different characters are applying Seal of Vengeance effects to a target.
⢠Seal of Vengeance duration increased to 15 seconds. In addition, when Seal of Vengeance strikes a target that already has 5 applications you will cause instant Holy damage.
