The week's biggest news
Build 1.60.1.70888: 295 items added and mounts now bind when picked up
The 11 November live build adds 295 items to the files, mostly level 50-58 rare and epic gear, flips every mount from bind-on-use to bind-on-pickup, and raises Shaman Lightning Bolt and Chain Lightning damage.
November 11 hotfixes: Paladin Judgement is now a Ranged Attack, tailoring bags resized, Auction House changes pushed to November 17
Blizzard's November 11 hotfixes make Paladin Judgement a Ranged Attack, make several tailoring bags cost more cloth but hold more, nerf some Riverglades mobs and disable Item Restoration. The Auction House changes from the day before were pulled and will return with maintenance on November 17. Wowhead separately reports a Wild Growth change for Restoration Druids that isn't in Blizzard's post.
Creators cover Blizzard's week-one response: dungeon XP, faction limits and gold at 60
Several creators have posted "Blizzard responds" videos about WoW Forever's first week. The changes they cover — a 50% dungeon XP hotfix, faction-creation limits aimed at a 50/50 split, lower crowding in congested zones, more gold from high-level quests and a run of class hotfixes — are all in Blizzard's forum posts and quoted below. Whether the fixes go far enough is the creators' opinion.
November 10 hotfixes: Enhancement pushed back to Windfury, Wrack reworked, and gold from quests at 48 and up
Blizzard's November 10 hotfixes cut Stormstrike and Maelstrom Weapon, let Shaman weapon imbues and totems work together, rework Affliction's Wrack to speed up your DoTs, add gold to most quests of level 48 and higher, and drop the Auction House deposit to 1 copper. Blizzard also restored the totems Shamans lost in Monday's crash.
November 10 hotfixes: Auction House deposit now 1 copper, mail fixed, Druid fixes, and the Hunter, Warlock and Shaman tuning lands
Blizzard's November 10 hotfixes are live. The minimum auction deposit dropped from 1 silver to 1 copper, two mail bugs were fixed, Druid's Omen of Clarity now works after a spec swap and Restoration's Nature's Swiftness makes Wild Growth instant. The class tuning flagged on 6 November landed too: Hunter pets were corrected from a bugged 150% health down to 115%, and Wowhead reports the Warlock Voidwalker buff and Enhancement Shaman changes went in as well.
November 9 hotfixes: the Drowned City toned down, Druid fixes, and fewer players packed into zones
Blizzard's November 9 hotfixes nerf the Drowned City's Deathless Marrow fight, fix a run of Druid and other class bugs, give 50% more experience from dungeon kills, and lower the player population in congested zones, with a bigger cut on the PvP ruleset.
