Warcraft

It's no surprise that a new patch comes with plenty of hotfixes as Blizzard works to fix issues that only became obvious when the whole playerbase hit the servers.

"I got a letter from a Fevered Explorer at some point when I was leveling, around 105, and I briefly looked for him," writes submitter Hindsight of Know Your Horde on Nesingwary (US-H).

With patch 7.2, a stealthy change made outdoor mobs scale up with player's ilevel — which was, to put it mildly, tremendously unpopular.

"A neat, unannounced (to my knowledge) feature of 7.2 was the addition of player headtracking," writes submitter Bethant.

Update: After a mountain of negative feedback, Blizzard has dialed down scaling.

Hotfixes, piping hot!

A recent undocumented change made it so that mobs appear to be scaling not just with level, but with item level as well.

There will be some mild spoilers for World of Warcraft: Chronicle Vol.

Patch 7.2 is now live and has a slew of things to do.

The wait is finally over: patch 7.2 is now live.
