WoW: This week’s hot fix list

Having problems keeping up with the maintenance work? Blizzard spokesman Tseric over at the World of Warcraft forums has compiled a list of the past hot-fixes they have just resolved. For the guys who have not been online as of late, consider this your one-stop sit-rep for what’s been happening while you were away:

2/16/07:

• The “Crumpled Up Note” quest item should now drop for Draenei to open the quest path for Onyxia
• An issue with Nexus-King Salhaddar which made him unkillable has been resolved
• Players will receive proper credit after finishing the ‘Kill Omen’ quest
• Players can no longer avoid Grull the Dragonkiller’s shatter damage through immunities
• Fixed an issue where The Maiden of Virtue would despawn upon a reset of the Karazhan instance

2/15/07

• Issues with players capturing the flag in the Eye of the Storm battleground should be resolved

2/14/07:

• Fixed an issue with players losing control of the chess pieces in Karazhan
• Entangling Roots should now affect certain creatures properly

2/13/07:

• The Gnomish Poultryizer can no longer be used on an Arena opponent
• Mortal Strike and Wound Poison (rank 4) no longer stack at any rank

2/12/07:

• The door at the top of the elevator in Tempest Keep: Mechanar should now properly open if players die to Pathaleon the Calculator
• Murmur’s Touch is properly removed from players when they zone out of Auchindoun: Shadow Labyrinth

We also make mention of the Epic bugs that were previously reported – make sure to remember them too. Just tread lightly, as there are reports that the Mechanar bug still kicks in, although forums member Peanutbutter made this suggestion: “I’ve heard that a ‘workaround’ for the Calculator fight is, when your party dies, make sure nobody releases until everyone is dead and the mobs all reset. If you release after the mobs reset, the door seems to reopen correctly.”

There you have it – just make sure to bring proper party members (Tanks, or course!), follow the advice, and you’re on your way!
