- All creatures should have the correct amount of attack power
- Fixed an issue with disenchanting, that could allow you to earn 2 skill level while disenchanting one single item.
PERFORMANCE
- NEW HARDWARE: Thanks to your donations, we upgraded our hardware to a much more powerful server. Performance increase is about 20% below 5k online players, and much more over 5k.
- SOFTWARE: A lot of work has been done to optimize the server even more
- As a result, we improved the server lag by more than 50% when reaching 6.7k online players last weekend (new record
)
SPELLS

- Fixed druid bear and cat form receiving double AP bonus per level.
- Charge end position should be improved. Passing through target has been significantly reduced.
- Fixed poisons charges going into negative numbers.
- Attacks consuming rage will have no cost if parried. Rage is lost if missed or dodged as intended.
- Warrior could sometimes switch to walk mode after a charge. This is fixed.
ADDITIONAL NOTES

- Onyxia head won't be available before Dire Maul release.
