Patch 1.15.3 is live on Season of Discovery (SoD) realms, bringing lots of changes for Phase 4. But, guess what? Non-SoD Classic realms got hit with some weird bugs.

Major Bugs Reported

Season Of Discovery Patch 1.15.3 Bug Report

Testament of Divine Steed

What’s Happening — The Testament of Divine Steed skill book from the quest The Missing Knight teaches the Divine Steed ability, which shouldn’t be here until the Legion expansion.
The Problem — Any class can do this quest, get the skill book, and +110 Argent Dawn reputation. But if you’re not a Paladin, tough luck—you can’t use the book.

Might of Stormwind

What’s Happening — The Might of Stormwind buff, meant for Alliance as a counterpart to the Horde’s Warchief’s Blessing, is showing up out of nowhere.
The Problem — Players are getting this buff after looting the Head of Rend Blackhand and doing the quest.

Rain of Fire

What’s Happening — The Warlock ability Rain of Fire has no channeling time.
The Problem — Warlocks can spam this ability instantly, which is pretty broken.

Netherwind Regalia Texture Issue

What’s Happening — Mages with the Netherwind Regalia Tier 2 set lost all textures.
The Problem — The set looks like a gray blob instead of cool gear.

Conclusion

These bugs are kind of funny but also annoying for Classic players. With Phase 4 of Season of Discovery launching officially on July 11, Blizzard will likely fix these bugs soon to get everything back to normal on the right realms.

Patch 1.15.3 is the latest update for World of Warcraft’s Season of Discovery realms, packed with hundreds of changes to prepare for Phase 4. These changes include new quests, abilities, and other content specifically designed for the SoD experience.

Are there any issues with Patch 1.15.3 on non-SoD Classic realms?

Yes, several unintended bugs have appeared on non-SoD Classic realms following the Patch 1.15.3 update. These bugs range from unexpected buffs and abilities being available to texture issues with gear. Players on normal and hardcore Classic realms have reported these bugs during their gameplay.

What is the Testament of Divine Steed issue?

The Testament of Divine Steed is a skill book from the newly added quest “The Missing Knight.” This book teaches the Divine Steed ability, which wasn’t supposed to be available until the Legion expansion. The quest can be completed by any class, not just Paladins, and rewards the skill book along with +110 Argent Dawn reputation. However, non-Paladins who receive the book cannot actually use it.

What is happening with the Might of Stormwind buff?

The Might of Stormwind buff, intended as the Alliance equivalent to the Horde’s Warchief’s Blessing, has been appearing unexpectedly. Players receive this buff after looting the Head of Rend Blackhand and completing the associated quest. This is not how the buff was intended to be distributed, leading to some confusion among players.

What is the problem with the Warlock ability Rain of Fire?

There is a significant issue with the Warlock ability Rain of Fire, where it currently has no channeling time. This means Warlocks can cast the ability instantly, which can disrupt gameplay balance and cause problems in various in-game situations. This bug has been particularly concerning for players facing Warlocks in combat.

What is the Netherwind Regalia texture issue?

Mages wearing the Netherwind Regalia Tier 2 set have reported a loss of textures on their gear. After the patch, the set appears as a flat gray model rather than its intended detailed appearance. This visual bug affects the aesthetic appeal of the gear, causing frustration among players who value the look of their equipment.
