Hey there, WoW enthusiasts! Today we have some exciting news for you. Blizzard has just released a set of hotfixes for classes and Mythic+ dungeons in the latest update. Let's dive into the details and see what changes have been made in the world of Azeroth.

Class Hotfixes

• Death Knight - Frost

• Frostscythe now synergizes with the Bonegrinder talent, allowing for increased effectiveness.
• A bug that caused the spell alert for Killing Machine with Fatal Fixation to display incorrect stack information has been fixed.
• An issue with Glacial Advance causing sound effect problems has been resolved.

• Shaman

Shamans, it's time to rejoice! An issue that was increasing the area-of-effect damage taken when using the Ancestral Defense talent has been fixed. Now, you can enjoy reduced damage, just as intended.

Mythic+ Dungeon Hotfixes

In the challenging world of Mythic+ dungeons, some issues have been addressed to create a more balanced and enjoyable experience.

• Afflicted Souls

In Mythic+ difficulties, the Afflicted Souls will no longer be treated as players. This change will help in streamlining the encounters and avoiding any unexpected behaviors associated with their player-like status.

• Darkheart Thicket

A pesky issue in Darkheart Thicket has been resolved. Players will no longer encounter a situation where the Corruption Pool lingers on them, causing unnecessary damage. Stay safe and clean, heroes!

Additionally, Archdruid Glaidalis's Primal Rampage will no longer damage pets. Your loyal companions can now accompany you without the fear of getting caught in the crossfire.

• Dawn of the Infinite: Galakrond's Fall

Chronikar enthusiasts will be pleased to know that a visual bug associated with Eon Shatter's ground targeting has been fixed. Previously, the targeting visual sometimes failed to appear, causing confusion during the encounter. You can now breathe a sigh of relief as everything will work as intended.

• Waycrest Manor

Heartsbane Triad, the notorious trio from Waycrest Manor, had an issue where the aura of one of the sisters would linger on players even after losing the iris. But fear not, as this problem has been resolved. Now, you won't have to deal with any unwanted lingering auras.

Player versus Player Hotfixes

Blizzard has also made some adjustments to ensure a fair and balanced PvP experience for all players.

Frigid Petals, a powerful PvP ability, was not being cancelled when entering a battleground. This issue has now been fixed, and the ability will behave as expected. Plan your strategies accordingly!

Additionally, attaining Bloody Tokens in Zaralek Caverns and Emerald Dream was not contributing to the Bloodstained Bounty, Blood Bank, or Prosperously Bloody achievements. But fear not, for Blizzard has rectified this issue. Your efforts will now be duly recognized and rewarded.

Quest Hotfixes

In the world of quests, some adjustments have been made to ensure smooth progression.

Players who found themselves unable to pick up the quest "A Little Hope is Never without Worth" should return to the grove in the Emerald Dream to continue their journey. Please ensure that the plant growth phase is complete before attempting to pick up the quest again.

Furthermore, a bug that prevented several steps of the Blue Dragonflight questline "The Veiled Ossuary" from appearing has been fixed. Now, you can delve deeper into the mysteries of the Blue Dragonflight without any hindrances.

Travel Changes

In the realm of travel, Blizzard has made an important change that will please many adventurers.

The requirement of the Battle for Azeroth Pathfinder achievement for dragonriding in Kul Tiras and Zandalar has been removed. You can now hop on your favorite dragon and soar through the skies, enjoying the breathtaking vistas these lands have to offer.

That wraps up our coverage of the latest hotfixes in World of Warcraft. For more information about the Guardians of the Dream and their respective hotfixes, make sure to check out the official Blizzard page.
