Subject: Blackwing Lair -- Hotfixes -- 8/8/05
   A few hotfixes just went live in Blackwing Lair:

--Vaelastrasz's Burning Adrenaline spell will be cast less frequently on his primary aggro target. Random targets will still gain the BA spell at the same frequency as before.

--Fixed a bug that was causing Blackwing Warlocks to cast too many portals too frequently. As a result of the fix, there should be fewer Fel Guards to deal with.

--Reduced the duration of Firemaw's Flame Buffet from 60 seconds to 20 seconds.

Q u o t e:
Firemaw change was a bit extreme....from damn near impossible to trivial =/.


Kalahad,

I understand and agree with you that the changes are quite significant. But Firemaw was never intended to be one of the most difficult encounters in the zone. His relative difficulty compared with other encounters in BWL was a little out of whack so we wanted to bring him back in line.

Q u o t e:
yes, but if it's like the last changes, and doesn't take effect until after the zone resets, it means as in your raid ID. That bites =)


I think there is a misunderstanding of how hotfixes work. You do not need to wait for a new Raid ID for changes to take place. Worst case, all you would need to do is zone out and wait 10-30 minutes for your current, open Blackwing Lair instance to close. Once you're certain it has closed (wait 30 minutes with no one inside it to be absolutely certain), zone back in and any hotfixes will be active. Hotfixes are in no way tied to Raid ID's. A hotfix is a change on the server. And in the case of an instance (such as Blackwing Lair) you simply need to restart the server by zoning out, letting it close and re-opening it.
