October 6: plague-erupt damage is attributed to the wrong player
The October 6 retail hotfix corrects Augmentation Evoker Reattribution damage from plague-erupt effects being assigned to the Death Knight. This is the attribution issue named in the notes, distinct from the same day’s Blightfall balance change. [1]
October 1: Rampant Ferocity triggers incorrectly on one target
Blizzard’s Feral Druid entry fixes Rampant Ferocity triggering incorrectly against a single target. It is a class-interaction correction rather than an instruction to reset talents. [1]
October 1: Venomous Heart melees a player
The Venomous Abyss entry for Ula’tek fixes the Venomous Heart sometimes making a melee attack against a player. [1]
September 23: Valeera cannot change talents after a faction change
The Delves hotfix addresses Valeera becoming unable to change talents or gain abilities after a faction change. Blizzard supplies an additional recovery sequence for affected characters: enter a delve, leave it, then log out. [1]
Documented steps
- On the affected character, enter a delve, leave the delve, and then log out, following Blizzard’s documented order. [1]
Check the client section and rollout conditions
The publisher’s combined page covers Midnight and several Classic variants. The entries above come from its retail sections. Some hotfixes need realm restarts, while some issues need a client patch, so a listed fix should be read with its rollout conditions. [1]
Sources & verification
Platform and version details belong to the individual issue or guide section. A documented workaround may not resolve every case.
