The first season is right around the corner, but there were a few obvious issues in some of the dungeons that Blizzard is looking to squash before everyone gets into keys.
Dawnbreaker now has an anvil you can repair your gear at in the dungeon on the ship itself. There were some complaints of groups getting softlocked in the instance as they couldn’t mount to repair their broken gear but also needed to beat an encounter in order to get the option to port out. It would be quite unfortunate to have a key bricked because you forgot to repair before going in!
There’s a couple of other minor fixes, but the only dungeon that actually received tuning was for the last boss of Ara-Kara, City of Echoes. The stun and damage for her web balls that would be slung around the arena are both reduced significantly – making it so that getting hit during an overlap with other mechanics shouldn’t be instant death. Also, the grasping black bloods that help root you so you don’t get sucked in by her void ability should now be susceptible to interrupts. That last part should allow healers and tanks to have a much easier time getting out as the DPS required to kill them and free yourself was significant.
