It’s a new week in WoW, and the latest round of hotfixes has hit the live servers. This set of changes includes fixes for a few miscellaneous bugs as well as some further tweaks to the Radiant Echoes event, which already saw a bit of an overhaul last week.

The Memories you can collect and assemble from the event will now stack to 100 and will stop dropping once you have acquired the associated Essence or created the Band of Radiant Echoes. The scaling of mini-bosses in the event has been increased, probably to give distant players more of an opportunity to fly across to them before they are defeated. On the other hand, the credit required for certain events, like Lumber, has been decreased to make them easier.

There are also two fixes for racial abilities. Dracthyr should now be able to cast Soar while swimming on the surface. The new Human racial, No Place Like Home, will now only gain charges when it’s supposed to.

If you’ve recently had trouble accessing the Legion campaign through Chromie Time, that should also be fixed as of today.
