Hotfix: a batch of dungeon epics and rares added to the client files

2026-11-08 · ForeverDB

A 7 November hotfix on build 1.60.1.70862 pushed a long list of items into the client files, nine Epic and the rest Rare, from level 39 up to level 60, with no new client.

Blizzard pushed a hotfix on 7 November without a new client, so the build is still 1.60.1.70862. The only thing it changed in our file comparison is items: nine Epic items and a long list of Rare items now appear where they didn't before, ranging from level 39 up to level 60.
