Blizzard's November 6 WoW: Forever hotfixes fix the Quick and the Dead Legacy Talent, make the Cooldown Manager show the right length for crowd control, and correct a Druid Bloom heal and a Bear Form tooltip, alongside a run of dungeon and quest fixes.

Blizzard posted a round of WoW: Forever hotfixes dated November 6. They cover a Legacy Talent, the Cooldown Manager, a few class fixes and a longer list of dungeon and quest fixes. Blizzard keeps hotfixes on one page and updates it through the day, so more lines may follow.

Reported, not confirmed by Blizzard. Parts of this article come from Wowhead, not from Blizzard's posts or the game files. We say who reports what where it comes up.

These are server-side hotfixes. We read the exact wording below from Blizzard's hotfix post as reproduced by Wowhead; everything we tie to the client's own data is marked as such.

Quick and the Dead

The Quick and the Dead is a Legacy Talent in the Resourcefulness tree, open to every class. In the client files its first of two ranks reads: Increases movement speed while dead by 5% and your helpful spells and abilities cost no resources for 1 min after being resurrected or until you enter combat. So it speeds up your corpse run and lets you throw out buffs and heals for free straight after a res, which helps most after a wipe. The hotfix line is short:

In substance, WoW: Forever Hotfixes, November 6 (Blizzard), reported by Wowhead said (source): Fixed an issue with the Quick and the Dead Legacy Talent where it sometimes did not work as intended.

Cooldown Manager

The Cooldown Manager arrived in the September 24 beta build. It takes cooldown and buff timers from your bars and shows them in a spot you can move and resize, and it is off by default. This hotfix is about the timers it shows for crowd control:

In substance, WoW: Forever Hotfixes, November 6 (Blizzard), reported by Wowhead said (source): The Cooldown Manager will now correctly display the duration of crowd control spells at all times, even when diminishing returns or mechanic reductions (like orc stun reduction) are factors.

Things like diminishing returns and the orc racial stun reduction cut how long a stun or similar effect actually lasts. Before, the Cooldown Manager's timer could ignore that and show the full length. Now the bar counts down the real, shortened duration.

Druid

Two Druid fixes. Bloom is a Restoration talent (tier 3, learnable from level 20 in the client files) that heals the target when your Rejuvenation or Regrowth runs its full length. Blizzard says it was not doing that:

In substance, WoW: Forever Hotfixes, November 6 (Blizzard), reported by Wowhead said (source): Bloom will now correctly heal the target.

The other is a tooltip fix for Bear Form:

In substance, WoW: Forever Hotfixes, November 6 (Blizzard), reported by Wowhead said (source): Fixed a bug where the tooltip of Bear Form claimed an incorrect health value increase.

Per the post, Bear Form's actual health boost was right all along; only the number in the tooltip was wrong. The hotfix post also lists a Ravage tooltip fix in the same vein.

Dungeon and quest fixes

The rest of the post is a batch of dungeon and quest fixes. On the dungeon side it covers spawn and creature behaviour in places like Maraudon, Blackmaw Hold and The Drowned City. On the quest side it covers loot visibility, NPC spawns and a few drop-rate and quest-sharing fixes. Blizzard's hotfix page has the full list, and it may grow as more fixes go live.
