Bugs abound in WoW, only one to be addressed with PTR patch
It’s bug watching time! If you’ve been having a problem in World of Warcraft with certain PvP accessories not removing their “hamstring,” as Shardpicker of Frostwolf would like to call it, Hortus said that a fix for the trinkets’ issues would be addressed with an upcoming patch to be play-tested on the Public Test Realms.
The fix would come together with adjustments to Frost Nova, Deathcoil and Freeze Tap (nerf alert?), which Hortus points out will also come together with the trinket fix. Certain other bugs found, such as instant “jumping” of pets to areas with massive altitude differences and clipping of your avatar’s hair with certain head equipments can’t be addressed for their own reasons.
Although Babona of Bloodscalp may have iterated that the glitch in the system – where avatars with pets may jump of from high altitudes and find their trusty companion right at their side after landing – does work for easy navigation, reporting a bug for an engine glitch isn’t exactly a massive calling for developers.
And speaking of glitches, hair clipping, we’re afraid to say, is a limitation of the World of Warcraft engine, and it appears that Blizzard may not be able to resolve the issue, unless they can rewrite a dated engine to a more robust level.
