Patch 5.4 hotfixes for October 7
Another round of hotfixes for patch 5.4 have been released and posted on the official blog. The list this time is relatively short, with only a few minor class tweaks for both priests and rogues. In addition, a few changes were made to a couple of encounters in the Siege of Orgrimmar raid, as well as one significant change for those farming rare mobs on the Timeless Isle.
On the Timeless Isle, Evermaw's spawn is no longer tied to the spawn of Dread Ship Vazuvius.
Over at the Darkmoon Faire, Moonfang should now always drop something when he's defeated.
In the Spoils of Pandaria encounter on Flexible difficulty, the Sparks of Life should no longer have much more health than intended.
Read on for the full list of hotfixes.
Priest
Holy
To help address issues with input lag, Mastery: Echo of Light now heals for three times as much every 3 seconds (was once every 1 second). Total amount healed remains unchanged.
Shadow
To help address issues with input lag, Vampiric Embrace now heals every second instead of every time the Priest deals Shadow spell damage. The total amount healed remains unchanged.
Class Armor
Corrected an issue where the Tier-16 Shadow 4-piece set bonus was improperly applying the damage bonus to additional spells when multiple instant cast spells are cast at the same time.
Rogue
Talents
Corrected an issue with Cloak and Dagger that could allow Rogues to bypass some targeting and line-of-sight restrictions.
Evermaw's spawn is no longer tied to Dread Ship Vazuvius.
Moonfang should now always drop something when defeated.
Spoils of Pandaria
Corrected an issue where Spark of Life had more health than intended on Flexible difficulty.
Garrosh Hellscream
Garrosh Hellscream should no longer use Malice against players who have an Iron Star fixated on them on Heroic difficulty.
