The latest round of hotfixes for Season 2 of The War Within has brought live several fixes to Hunter abilities as well as a change to prevent players from being able to see their opponents before entering a battleground.
The Hunter changes target several abilities, including Aspect of the Eagle, Master’s Call, and Command Pet. There are no tuning adjustments, only corrections to abilities that weren’t behaving properly.
