| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Challenge rewards have been added for all vanilla dungeons and raids (at time of this posting, not entirely true, but prior to release this will be). Vanilla raids will award raid-specific items (such as reagents), Primordial Essence, Reward Points, and caches which contain one additional piece of loot from the raid and the potential for special gear as well. Amount of reward are based on number of challenges active, though caches have their own system. Generally only the last few bosses will award caches except in ZG and AQ20 where only Hakkar and Ossirian award caches. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - After much testing, decided to remove the dot component of corpse explosion. Now it just does a flat 22.5?mage to player health, or 8.5% on non-elite mobs (some other creatures may have custom damage done amounts, such as Firesworn, which is 10%, or onyxian whelps at 5.76% etc). The dot did not stack well with --Decay, and getting bots to stop attacking can be a pain. I found myself avoiding the affix entirely due to how painful large pulls can be in places such as BWL, or --Onyxia's Lair. While I want challenges to be difficult, I don't want them to be nearly impossible. Radius has also been increased from 7.0f to 20.0f. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Decay and Corpse Explosion will never occur together unless 4+ affixes are active. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Challenges are now randomized. You can select between 1-5 affixes. Tyrannical will always be one of the 3+ affixes, and does not occur on the first two levels. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Scripts and auras have been cleaned up in a number of ways and auras will now be removed from bots once they leave the dungeon or raid. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Tyrannical now increases mob health by 35% and damage by 15%, down from 40% and 20%. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Enfeeblement now also reduces max health by 25%. Damage done now reduced by 30%. Healing received now reduced by 35%. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Slow Decay dungeon challenge should work as intended now. |
| 31-08-2024 | Challenge Modes | Instance Challenges: - Gravity Well has been retired as a dungeon challenge. |
