La nuova patch, Visions of N’zoth è disponibile già da una settimana e in questo tempo non sono mancati problemi, hotfix e modifiche. Nelle ultime ore Blizzard, insieme ai comunicati dei Community Manager Bornakk e Kaivax, ha annunciato diversi hotfix, interventi e correzioni ai vari problemi tra i quali i più importanti:
- Gli effetti della corruzione Stelle Infinite, Appendice Distorta, Sferzata del Vuoto e Ferita Zampillante ora scalano con il livello oggetto degli equipaggiamenti.
- L’essenza di Azerite Visione della Perfezione ora è tra i bottini delle casse finali delle mitiche+ di Meccagon.
- Risolti alcuni problemi con il penultimo boss Carapace di N’zoth dell’incursione Ny’alotha, la città risvegliata.
- Molto altro ancora.
With a hotfix that is now live on all realms, we’ve adjusted the damage done by several Corruption Effects:
- Damage dealt by Infinite Stars, Twisted Appendages, and Gushing Wound is now based on the item level of the Corrupted item. This previously scaled dynamically with Attack Power and Spell Power.
- Lash of the Void damage is now based on the item level of the Corrupted Item, and now procs less often than before.
Previously the damage dealt by these powers was modified by Attack Power and Spell Power, which meant that certain specialization abilities or random bonuses could cause drastic swings in their effectiveness. Infinite Stars in particular was too strong against single targets as a result of this and other factors.
This change also adjusts Infinite Stars base damage accordingly, as the scaling method was one of the primary factors behind some of the extreme outliers we saw in our logs and from player feedback. Our goal with this change and other adjustments to Corruption powers is to improve parity in the effectiveness per point of Corruption of the different bonuses available on Visions of N’Zoth items.
With a hotfix that is now live, we’ve made the following adjustment:
Dungeons and Raids
- Operation: Mechagon
- In Mechagon Junkyard and Mechagon Workshop on Mythic Keystone difficulties, end-of-run chests now award Engine of Mecha-Perfection, or Blueprint: Perfectly Timed Differential, or Progression Sprockets for your Vision of Perfection.
This change will be recorded in our next hotfixes update 19.

Items and Rewards
- Corrupted Items
- Damage dealt by Infinite Stars, Twisted Appendages, and Gushing Wound (Corrupted Effects) is now based on the item level of a Corrupted item, rather than scaling dynamically with Attack Power and Spell Power.
- Developers’ note: Previously the damage dealt by these powers was modified by Attack Power and Spell Power, which meant that certain specialization abilities or random bonuses could cause drastic swings in their effectiveness. Infinite Stars in particular was too strong against single targets as a result of this and other factors. This change also adjusts Infinite Stars base damage accordingly, as the scaling method was one of the primary factors behind some of the extreme outliers we saw in our logs and from player feedback. Our goal with this change and other adjustments to Corruption powers is to improve parity in the effectiveness per point of Corruption of the different bonuses available on Visions of N’Zoth items.
