World of Warcraft hotfixes for November 20
A new set of World of Warcraft hotfixes for patch 6.2.3 have been released and posted to the official blog. There are several class balance tuning changes for PVP this time around — Hunters, Monks, Priests, Shaman and Warlocks all have changes. In addition, players that are Timewalking in End Time should now be scaled to item level 350, rather than ilvl 300. And for those wondering where the Fel Reaver noises were coming from, players entering Ashran on a flying mount should no longer cause the errant Fel Reaver sounds to play. Read on for the full list of hotfixes.
