Big Patch Announcement

[Kestrel]

Hello!

We are going to be bringing services down for another large migration starting at approximately 3am UTC (give or take) for extended maintenance. We will be migrating many changes from the PTR over to production including a lot of architectural, misconfiguration scanning, and logging changes that have been greatly helping our development accuracy and speed. Expect the maintenance to take approximately 1-4 hours.

Please find a generalized changelog below.

Classes - Fixed

Fixed a issues with raid loot distributions and drops
Fixed critical quests and attunements
Fixed LFG
Mage portal fixes
Samurai may now use fishing poles and other MISC weapons

Restored the Barber

Fully restored Frostmane Hollow

Guild Banks - Accross Azeroth, mysterious political forces have shut down the guild bank system as we know it, citing increased pressure to not co-operate with the opposing faction. Surely a neutral third part will fill the gap...

Oh and there are some website changes going in this patch also. The most notable public facing change is a new public death appeal page!

Going forward all hardcore deaths will need to be made publicly here where the entire community can see and offer their own input and vote on the individual appeals. Ultimately the decision to grant or deny is still on the developers and GMs, but we hope that providing this transparent public space for discussion will prevent any issues from arising.

You must have (at any point in time starting when this feature goes live) at least one level 20 or above hardcore character in order be be able to comment or vote on the death appeals. This is to keep the feature somewhat limited to those who would be affected by these decisions.

I am now getting rapid rested exp while inside an inn, but am getting vanilla amounts of rested while underneath a player crafted tent (next to none). Not sure if this intentional but it kind of strips all usefulness out of current survival. Both being a viable option is the best of both worlds imo.

One missed item from the changelog (I know there are many more but this one feels good to clarify), Tents now give up to 33% of a levels worth of rested exp (turtle's was only 25% so we bumped is slightly). We also increased the rate that it gives exp to so that it is significantly faster than sitting in an inn for the same amount of rested exp. We intent players to use tents (crafted by themselves typically) as a hold over when they need another 1/3 or less of a level to ding and go back to a town/inn for a full rested bar. It takes 3 minutes to get from 0% rested to 33% rested with tents.

The inns now give rested exp up to 150% max at a slower rate then the tents. It takes 12.5 minutes to get to full rested from 0 with an inn.

There is currently a bug allowing for up to 300% rested to accumulate for some, getting patched very soon.
