WotLK Classic Hotfixes Feb 2nd – DK Creation & Resto Druid Tier 8

This brief hotfix made two changes: an error with DK character creation that caused your first attempt to make a Death Knight fail and an adjustment to the trigger rate of the 4-piece bonus of Druid tier 8.

Previously, the Resto set bonus provided instant healing on your target and would proc on every other Rejuvenation cast. Because the tooltip doesn’t properly word this, Blizzard felt it would be fair to change the chance of extra healing to happen every time to reflect the tooltip.

Check out the extent of the changes below.

Wrath of the Lich King Classic

Classes
- Death Knight
  - Fixed an issue where creating your first Death Knight would fail on the first attempt.
- Druid
  - Nightsong Regalia (Tier 8) 4-set bonus heal now correctly triggers on each Rejuvenation.
    - Developers’ note: The once-on-every-other-Rejuvenation cast is true to the behavior in patch 3.3.5. However, the wording of the Tier 8 set bonus does not reflect this, and instead indicates that Rejuvenation should provide an instant-heal on cast. It seemed like the fair thing to do would be to reimplement the once-on-every-Rejuvenation-cast trigger rate.
