The Legacy of Arathor PTR has been updated with the following changes:
OVERCHARGED DELVES
- Overcharged Delve quests and the new customizable Titan Disc Belt are available for testing.
CLASSES
- Resolved an issue that caused Recuperate’s tooltip to incorrectly display a larger value. The tooltip has been updated to reflect that it heals the caster for 50% of their maximum health over the course of 30 seconds.
- Developers’ notes: This change will be reflected in next week’s PTR update.
DUNGEONS AND RAIDS
- TIMEWALKING DUNGEONS
- Battle for Azeroth Timewalking is now available for testing. See the raid testing schedule for more information.
- Developers’ notes: These changes aim to make it possible to experience Timewalking dungeons more authentically, giving players the opportunity to use more abilities and practice their class’s damage rotations, healing spells, or defensives. When players wish to use Timewalking dungeons to level up, we want you to learn your class in realistic combat encounters, especially boss encounters. This also acknowledges and rewards players who take the time to acquire powerful gear, since better gear increases your damage, healing, and survivability. We will actively monitor testing and feedback and we will make further adjustments as needed.
- Enemy health increased in all Timewalking dungeons.
- Boss health significantly increased in all Timewalking dungeons.
- Adjusted difficulty scaling via the following changes:
- Lower-geared players are now slightly more damage-resistant.
- Incoming damage should be more noticeable against geared players.
- Fixed an issue where item level scaling did not account for enchantments, gems, and other power sources.
- Timewalking dungeons will now drop Adventurer gear (was Explorer).
- Completing a Timewalking dungeon now rewards 25 Timewarped Badges (was 10).
