Changes in v1.12.0:

World of Warcraft: Drums of War

Cross-Realm Battlegrounds
* For the first time in the history of World of Warcraft, you will be able to face off against players from other realms in the Battlegrounds. PvP Battlegrounds link Alterac Valley, Warsong Gulch, and Arathi Basin so that players from several realms will be combined into one huge matchmaking pool. Replenish your mana, sharpen your blades, and get ready for some brand-new challengers!

World PvP
* The stage is set for intense, objective-based land battles as Horde and Alliance vie for control over important strategic positions and resources around Azeroth. Head out for Silithus and Eastern Plaguelands to engage the enemy on the field!

General
* Threat Reduction Effects – This system has been redesigned to eliminate inconsistency in how the effects work. Previously, some were additive (for example: 30% reduction + 20% reduction = 50% reduction) while others were multiplicative (30% reduction and 20% reduction made 44% reduction, from 0.7*0.8). They are now all multiplicative. This also prevents unpredictable behavior when the total reduction percentage was equal to or greater than 100%. Please note that in almost all cases, when stacking multiple threat reduction effects you will experience less threat reduction than previously.

* Haste and Slow effects – Previously Haste and Slow effects worked inconsistently, with spells working differently from weapons, and hastes and slows not acting as inverses of each other. We have revised the system so that all haste and slow effects work the same way, and haste and slow percentages of the same magnitude perfectly cancel each other out (30% haste and 30% slow combine to no change). As a result, we had to change the tooltip numbers on all spell haste effects, and on all melee and range slow effects. The numbers in the tooltips are different, but the game functionality is unchanged (other than slight rounding errors). Those tooltips that changed will now display larger numbers than they used to display. Conceptually, haste values indicate how much more of that activity you can perform in a given time. 30% melee haste means 30% more swings in a given time. Slow values indicate how much longer an activity takes to complete. 30% slow means an action takes 30% longer to finish.

* The deserter debuff will now continue to expire even while you are offline.

* Honorable Kills now diminish at a rate 10% per kill rather than 25% per kill.

* Temporary item buffs (e.g. poisons, sharpening stones and shaman weapon buffs) will no longer persist through zoning or logging out due to technical issues. This feature is anticipated to be activated once more with the expansion.

Druids
* Barkskin: The tooltip has been changed to 25% due to the haste effect change.

* Cat Form: This form now has an innate threat reduction component.

* Ferocious Bite: Book of Ferocious Bite (Rank 5) now drops off The Beast in Black Rock Spire. In addition, Ferocious Bite now increases in potency with greater attack power.

* Furor: This talent now works correctly with Cat Form again.

* Improved Shred: The discounted cost for Shred will now be displayed correctly even when you are not in Cat Form.

* Rip: Lesser potency Rips will no longer overwrite greater potency ones.

* Fixed a bug where the incorrect sound was being played by the Claw attack.

Hunters
* Spirit Bond: This ability will now be correctly reapplied when you resurrect in a battleground and your pet is polymorphed or otherwise unable to act normally.

* Improved Concussive Shot: The effect of this talent will now still be placed on the victim if the hunter is killed before their shot reaches the target.

* Growl now correctly initiates combat when used by a pet in passive mode.

* The Ferocity talent now correctly applies to non-physical hunter pet abilities such as Lightning Breath and Thunderstomp.

* If a hunter has tamed one of the following creature types, they will no longer potentially change colors if resummoned:
Son of Hakkar – Red
Frenzied Bloodseeker Bat – Brown
Deep Stinger – Red
Dark Screecher – Gray
Cave Creeper – Brown
Bloodaxe Worg – Black
Scarshield Worg -Brown

Mages

* Impact: The effect of this talent will now still be placed on the victim if the caster is killed before their spell reaches the target.

* Frostbite: The effect of this talent will now still be placed on the victim if the caster is killed before their spell reaches the target.

* Reduced the number of messages that appear in the combat log when using Combustion.

* Spirit of Redemption: Fixed an issue preventing Twisting Nether from retriggering when the Spirit of Redemption effect runs out.

Rogues
* Due to significant talent changes, Rogues will have all talent points refunded and can be re-spent. Training costs for all talent spell replacements have been significantly reduced.

* Vanish now removes effects that allow the caster to always remain aware of their target (currently Hunter’s Mark and Mind Vision).

* Pickpocket can now be used on targets that are in combat, as long as the rogue remains stealthed.

* Rupture: Rupture now increases in potency with greater attack power.

* Sap: Enemy rogues will now always lose stealth when you Sap them.

Shaman
* Reincarnation should now display the cooldown timer when used.

* Chain Heal – After the initial target is healed, the healing effect will jump to the most damaged target (by absolute health) within range. In addition, if a raid member is the initial target it will look for valid raid targets to jump to rather than non-raid targets as a priority, making it consistent with group targeted Chain Heals.

* Lightning Shield: Air Bubble pockets in underwater regions will no longer consume a charge from this spell.

Warlocks
* Cripple (Doomguard): Due to haste effect change, the tooltip has been changed to 45%.

* Curse of Tongues: This spell will no longer debuff the target if they are immune to the spellcast slowing effect

Warriors
* Bloodthirst: This ability will now correctly benefit from attack power bonuses versus specific creature types.

* Flurry: The text on the tooltip has been corrected to indicate it triggers on all types of attacks.

* Shield Slam: This ability will sometimes no longer remove more than one beneficial effect from the target.

Items

* Blade of Eternal Darkness: The triggered effect from this weapon will no longer occur when the spell being cast has its effect broken by causing damage.

* Blazefury Medallion: The triggered effect from this item will no longer break Gouge.

* Bonescythe Armor: The Eviscerate bonus will no longer trigger when your Eviscerate does not hit your target.

* Earthshatter Set: The Lightning Shield bonus will now be removed if you lose the set bonus.

* Eye of the Dead: Holy Shock now interacts properly with this item.

* Ranged Elemental Damage: Our ranged combat system does not allow a ranged weapon to do a mix of Elemental (Fire, Frost, Arcane, etc.) and Physical damage. Many ranged weapons existed which were listed as doing Elemental damage and did not function properly (the damage was dealt, but was treated as Physical). All of those weapons have been changed to deliver the Elemental damage as a chance on hit effect. Hurricane was previously changed this way in 1.11. The following ranged weapons are also fixed in 1.12: Bow of Searing Arrows, Dwarven Hand Cannon, Heartseeking Crossbow, Dark Iron Rifle, Galgann’s Fireblaster, Quillshooter, Shell Launcher Shotgun, Venomstrike, and Verdant Keeper’s Aim.

* The Items that summon mounts have been changed in their color/quality. Items that summon normal mounts are now blue (superior)items and items that summon swift mounts are now purple (epic) items.

* Fixed a bug that allowed you to use items which restored health or mana while you were already full health or mana.

* Fixed a bug with the Jom Gabbar trinket which was causing it to trigger a category cooldown for a duration longer than intended.

* Wrath of Cenarius: This item will now trigger from Arcane Missiles.

* Clarified the tooltips for the Stormshroud armor and Kalimdor’s Revenge to explain that they deal Nature damage.

* Fixed a bug that caused the Blooddrenched Mask to hide a character’s hair.

* Warbear leather now stacks to 20.

* Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker may now be equipped in either hand.

* Argent Shoulders no longer require a righteous orb to make.

* The cooldown timer on transforming Anathema and Benediction may no longer be circumvented by zoning or logging out.

Professions

* Engineering: Explosive sheep do fire damage instead of physical damage.

* Goblin Land Mines and Compact Harvest Reapers will no longer lock out using other engineering devices until the land mine/reaper dies. Harvest Reaper was given a 10 min self cooldown to prevent too many reapers from being summoned at once.

Raids and Dungeons

When players receive these messages, a new event “CHAT_MSG_ADDON” is sent, with arg1-arg3 being the parameters to SendAddonMessage(), and arg4 being the name of the player that sent it. The combined length of “prefix” and “message” must be less than or equal to 254 bytes.

* Added UnitPlayerOrPetInParty() and UnitPlayerOrPetInRaid().

——————————————————————————–
- World of Warcraft Client Patch 1.11.0
——————————————————————————–

Shadow of the Necropolis
Floating above the Plaguelands, the necropolis known as Naxxramas
serves as the seat of one of the Lich King’s most powerful officers,
the dreaded lich Kel’Thuzad. Horrors of the past and new terrors yet
to be unleashed are gathering inside the necropolis as the Lich
King’s servants prepare their assault. The Scourge marches again…
Naxxramas is the new 40-man raid dungeon that will present even the
most experienced and powerful players with an epic challenge.

General
- The cost to unlearn talents will now decay over time. This cost will
be reduced by a rate of 5 gold per month to a minimum of 10 gold.

- Logging back in after a disconnect from the server has been greatly
improved, and players should now rarely receive the message “A
character with that name already exists.”

- Fear: The calculations to determine if Fear effects should break due
to receiving damage have been changed. The old calculation used the
base damage of the ability. The new calculation uses the final amount
of damage dealt, after all modifiers. In addition, the chance for a
damage over time spell to break Fear is now significantly lower. Note
that Fear continues to be roughly three times as likely to break on
player targets as on non-player targets. In addition, Intimidating
Shout now follows that player versus non-player distinction, while
previously it did not.

- Periodic Healing: Spells which do periodic healing will now have
their strength determined at the moment they are cast. Changing the
amount of bonus healing you have during the duration of the periodic
spell will have no impact on how much it heals for.

- Reflection: Effects which cause reflection will no longer reflect
triggered effects separately from their base effects (e.g. Impact,
Improved Shadow Bolt, Aftermath, etc.)

- Spell and Item Auras with Charges: These auras will now correctly
remember their number of charges when you enter or leave an instance,
change continents, or log out.

- All controlled units will now be titled based on the creature type.
All beasts will be referred to as Pets, for example (no matter how
they are controlled). Previously, there were several inconsistencies.

- Beneficial spells and abilities that target multiple units will no
longer consume resources (i.e. mana, rage etc…) if they fail to
affect anyone.

- Chain targeted spells and abilities (e.g. Multi-shot, Cleave, Chain
Lightning) will no longer land if target cannot be seen by the caster
due to stealth or invisibility.

- Character model transparency has been modified to fix an issue where
PC’s would appear to have a large hole in their model (be on the
lookout!).

- Optimization code known as “M2Faster” is now enabled by default.
M2Faster can improve performance in crowded scenes when “Vertex
Animation Shaders” is turned on. This function can be turned off by
setting M2Faster to “0″ in the config.wtf.
Reduces the unique number of vertex shader permutations that we will
choose to use in rendering
Sorts the drawing of items in the scene a little differently to
reduce the number of times we re-program the vertex shader hardware.

PVP
- In an effort to keep their armies better outfitted the Horde and
Alliance have both taken it upon themselves to update their available
rewards.
An updated set of armor rewards have been added to vendors for Honor
ranks 7, 8, and 10.
The armor rewards for Honor ranks 12 and 13 have been increased in
level and stat point allocation.
New rank 14 weapons have been added! In order to give casters the
same diversity of selection that melee currently enjoy we have added
new caster items that are available to be purchased by Grand
Marshals and High Warlords.

Battlegrounds
- Alterac Valley
Most of the NPC guard units have been removed.
Players now drop more quest items.
Creatures that remain in Alterac Valley have had their hit points
reduced.
The buff that is periodically cast by each faction’s Captain has
been changed to a flat 20% hit point buff.
Upgrading troops through armor scrap turn-ins will also now result
in your team’s General enabling a periodic buff to your melee and
spell damage.

- This buff scales from 10% at the Seasoned unit level, 20% at the
Veteran unit level, and 30% at the Champion unit level.

- Warsong Gulch – Epic leggings have been added to the Warsong Outrider
and Silverwing Sentinel supply officers for all armor types. These
items require Exalted status with their respective reputations.

Druids
- Innervate: This spell is now a base ability for all Druids, trainable
at level 40. Any Druid who formerly had the Innervate talent now has
the Swiftmend talent instead.

- Nature’s Grace: You will no longer consume this effect when casting a
spell which was made instant by Nature’s Swiftness.

- Swiftmend: This new talent has been added to the Druid Restoration
tree, replacing Innervate as the 31 point ultimate talent. It
consumes a Rejuvenation or Regrowth aura to produce an instant heal.

- Enrage: Tooltip edited to clarify functionality.

Hunters
- Counterattack (Survival Talent) – All ranks of this talent will now
share the same cooldown.

- Scorpid Poison: Duration slightly lengthened.

- Changed the way hunter pet family armor bonuses and penalties are
applied to allow the exact value from the Natural Armor talent to be
applied correctly. This may result in a very slight loss of armor to
some pets (less than a third of a percent).

- Improved Scorpid Sting: The aura from this Sting will now be removed
(as intended) when a different Sting aura is placed on the victim.

Mages
- Due to significant talent changes, mages will have all talent points
refunded and can be respent. Training costs for all talent spell
replacements have been significantly reduced.

- New ability added – Winter’s Chill.

- Arcane Explosion is now instant cast and will no longer remove the
Presence of Mind effect when used.

- Evocation – Is now available to all mages (via trainer), starting at
level 20.

- Conjure Food now has a new rank (Rank 7) available in Stratholme.

- Frost Ward now has a new rank (Rank 5) available as item loot in
dungeons.

- Mana Shield – Damage taken will now be absorbed by other absorb
spells (e.g. Ice Barrier, Power Word: Shield) before being absorbed by
Mana Shield.

- Dampen Magic – Damage and healing reduction increased on ranks 3
through 5.

- Amplify Magic – Damage and healing bonus increased on ranks 2
through 4.

- Counterspell – Fixed a bug that made Counterspell unresistable.

- Improved Scorch – Duration of Fire Vulnerability increased to 30
seconds.

- Blast Wave: The bonus this spell receives from effects that increase
spell damage has been increased.

- Cold Snap: This talent will now always clear the cooldown for Frost
Ward, even if the cooldown was triggered by casting Fire Ward.

- Cone of Cold: The bonus this spell receives from effects that
increase spell damage has been increased.

- Fire Ward: The amount of damage absorbed by this ward was increased
substantially on all ranks.

- Frost Ward: The amount of damage absorbed by this ward was increased
substantially on all ranks.

- Arcane Power: This ability will no longer stack with Power Infusion.
If you gain both at the same time, Arcane Power will take precedence.

- Added a new level 60 quest available from Archmage Xylem in Azshara
for mages.

- Fire Ruby now has a sell value and can be disenchanted.

Paladins
- Benediction: This talent will no longer incorrectly provide a double
discount to Seal of Justice.

- Blessing of Light: It is no longer possible for a target to appear to
have multiple ranks of Blessing of Light. These multiple auras had no
beneficial effect, merely causing confusion. Problems with targeting
the spell when the caster has Blessing of Light effect on them have
also been fixed.

- Divine Favor: It is no longer possible to cast this immediately after
a healing spell and “retroactively” make it a critical hit.

- Illumination: When several critical effect healing spells are cast
very quickly, you will now receive the correct mana refund for each
one.

- Judgement of Command: Now consumes a charge of the Zandalarian Hero
Charm. In addition, when this spell is resisted it will no longer
erroneously still do damage.

- Judgement of Righteousness: Now consumes a charge of the Zandalarian
Hero Charm.

- Seal of Command: Clarified tooltip.

- Vengeance: Seal of Command critical hits can now trigger this ability.

- Vindication: This effect will no longer be absorbed by Grounding Totem.

Priests
- Lightwell – Casting time reduced. Lightwell object increased in size
to make it easier to click; relative click radius decreased slightly.

- Mind Control: If you cast Power Word: Shield while Mind Controlling a
target, the Recently Shielded aura will now appear on the correct
target instead of yourself.

- Spirit of Redemption: This spell has a number of fixes: Spirit of
Redemption form now has casting animations. Priests prematurely
leaving battlegrounds with this aura on will now receive the Deserter
debuff (as intended); Priests in Spirit of Redemption form at the

- We have re-evaluated the mechanics of consumable items in the game
and concluded that these should work in a more intuitive manner. As
such, most items that can not be equipped with right click abilities
have been streamlined into one of three categories. Using an item of
a particular category will trigger a shared cooldown among all other
items in the same category. The categories break down as follows with
category cooldowns as listed.
Potions 2 minutes: This includes items such as Health Potion, Mana
Potion, Invisibility Potion and Mighty Rage Potion.
Aggressive 1 minute: This includes items such as explosives, Really
Sticky Glue and Discombobulator Ray.
Non-Aggresive 2 minutes: This includes items such as Healthstone,
Night Dragon’s Breath, Whipper Root Tuber and Target Dummy.

- Many items that can be equipped have had their cooldown category
removed and will be controlled exclusively by the item’s self
cooldown. For example, the Gnomish Mind Control Cap should no longer
trigger the cooldown of the Talisman of Arathor.

- We have re-evaluated the class specific quest rewards for both
Zul’Gurub and Ahn’Qiraj Ruins. To bring them more in line with the
effort required to attain them we have upgraded the superior items to
epic quality.

on all the players who were not ready or who did not respond.

up you can cast spells on the target of target without targeting it

by the new Frame:GetTitleRegion() method. Region:GetObjectType() returns
“Region”, and Region:IsObjectType(”type”) returns true if “type” is
“Region”.
All regions have the following member functions:
type = Region:GetObjectType()
isType = Region:IsObjectType(”type”)
name = Region:GetName()
frame = Region:GetParent()
Region:SetParent(frame)
x,y = Region:GetCenter()
x = Region:GetLeft()
x = Region:GetRight()
y = Region:GetTop()
y = Region:GetBottom()
width = Region:GetWidth()
Region:SetWidth(width)
height = Region:GetHeight()
Region:SetHeight(height)
numPoints = Region:GetNumPoints()
“point”,relativeObject,”relativePoint”,xOfs,yOfs =
Region:GetPoint(index)
Region:SetPoint(”point” [, LayoutFrame] [, "relativePoint"]
[, offsetX, offsetY])
Region:SetAllPoints(LayoutFrame)
Region:ClearAllPoints()
