Patch 2.1 notes are out now |
Ó
Everyone knew it was coming, and everyone has been scrounging up little bits of information for Patch 2.1 of World of Warcraft. Blizzard has apparently decided that we've suffered enough and has put out the patch notes for all the information-mongers out there (myself included).
The question now is what major changes have they implemented? To be honest we won't be able to cover every detail since it would take more space than this article will allow. While we can expect a few bugs to pop up now and then, it's still nice to get new content for the game since the raids have been getting a bit old. Anyway, here are some of the highlights in this patch.
Some of the Patch Notes:
- The Consortium and Protectorate need your help! Players with Honored or higher reputation with the Consortium should seek out Protectorate Advisor Rahim at the Stormspire in Netherstorm or Commander Ameer at the Protectorate Watch Post in Netherstorm to get a briefing on the most recent nefarious activities of the Ethereum.
- Skettis is now available. Players will need a flying mount to reach this new area.
- Nether Drakes are now in the game and can be gained by continuing the Netherwing faction and quest line.
- Ogri'la is now available. Level 70 players can find this new quest line in Blade's Edge Mountains.
- Glancing Blows have significantly less of a chance to occur during a player's melee attacks when targets are near the player's level.
- Magtheridon and Kael'thas now drop items that may be turned in for rewards.
- Chance to break crowd control from damage: The increased chance for a spell to break from taking a critical strike has been removed. Instead, all targets over level 60 have a slightly larger chance to break out of crowd-controlling effects when they take damage.
- Inspect distance has been increased to 30 yards (from 10 yards).
- The amount of parry rating needed to get 1% parry has been reduced by 25%.
- Many set bonuses did not work properly when combined with an item or enchantment that had the exact same effect at the exact same magnitude. That issue has been corrected on all set bonuses.
- Taunts: The taunt system has been adjusted so that Warrior Taunt, Druid Growl, and Paladin Righteous Defense will now grant the player the correct amount of threat even when the creature or its target is crowd controlled.
