WoW Hotfixes August 1st: Castle Nathria Tuning

Spannah • Published August 2, 2022

With the Season 4 of Shadowlands right around the corner, we are getting some adjustments to the first Fated Raid: Castle Nathria. Most of these changes however, will not be affecting the Mythic difficulty, which remains untouched except for a knockback reduction to the Shattering Blast ability during the Stone Legion Generals encounter.

Player versus Player

Fixed an interaction with Demonology Warlock’s Call Observer (PvP Talent) and Balance Druid’s Fury of Elune (Talent) that was causing more damage than intended.
