• Paladin
  • Fixed an issue causing Divine Toll to sometimes cast the incorrect spell.
• Rogue
  • Fixed an issue that caused Grappling Hook to break Stealth when talented into Subterfuge.

Creatures and NPCs

    • Fixed an issue where Gashtooth would cast Marked for Butchery on pets. This should now correctly only target players.
  • Court of Stars
    • Advisor Melandrus

• Vault of the Incarnates

    • Thundering
      • Updated the visual indicators used for the Thundering affix.
      • Thundering should no longer interrupt eating and drinking.
