Hello everyone! We're back with another patch filled with fixes and improvements, and this one is a culmination of more than a weeks work by the team. It addresses some of the biggest concerns by the community, mainly with class balance (in particular Warrior and Rogue), Stash size being too burdensome, and as well as returning the loot to Mor'thog which we temporarily disabled while we adjusted the experience. We're working on more updates and adjustments for a Mini Patch that we will be doing in a few weeks, which will give players the ability to delete characters, properly display cooldowns to toolbelt items (such as Poison Dagger, Warhorn or Prayer Cards), more improvements to the Mor'thog boss experience and more.Thanks for all of your feedback and we appreciate your patience.
