Conclusion
Blizzard has made some exciting changes to the Season of Discovery. Now, the Poacher’s Cave tunnel has independent cooldowns on both sides, so players can return faster. Just remember, smoke asphyxiation still limits you to using it twice an hour.
In Molten Core, you can’t hide from Flamewaker Priests anymore. You’ll need to interrupt their Dark Mending spell. They made the timing easier for you to do that.
For different classes, there are some neat updates. Druids in Moonkin Form will now generate less threat. Hunters’ traps will now do damage based on 25% of their attack power. Mages have fixes for their Molten Core set and Arcane Blast healing. Paladins have better threat reduction with the Vengeance talent. Priests will find their Homunculi less aggressive. Rogues won’t have bugs with their 6-piece set triggering incorrectly. Shamans’ Spirit Wolves will now show all their abilities. Warriors get correct lines from Khonsu and a fix for their Tier 1 set bonus.
