World of Warcraft Client Patch 1.9.0

The Gates of Ahn'Qiraj

The Gates of Ahn'Qiraj will house two massive, unique dungeons -- the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, a 20-man raid dungeon, and the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, a 40-man raid dungeon. As players delve deeper into the mysteries of Ahn'Qiraj, they will discover revelations of the Silithid infestation and their shadowy masters, the Qiraji. Players will have to complete a world event of massive proportions before they can open the Gates of Ahn'Qiraj on their realm.

During the public test of Ahn'Qiraj, the world event to open the gates will be accelerated to allow testing of the dungeon content.[sic]

Linked Auction Houses

Players will now be able to buy and sell goods with greater effectiveness using the Linked Auction House system. Auction Houses in Orgrimmar, Undercity, and Thunder Bluff will now share the same pool of Horde player-created auctions, and Alliance players will find the same to be true when visiting Ironforge, Stormwind City, and Darnassus Auction Houses. This system has been expanded to support the neutral Auction Houses as well. Tanaris, Everlook, and Booty Bay will all be linked for players of both factions to access. In addition, the "Looking for Group" and "Trade" channels have been unified among the corresponding cities, meaning, for example, that you can trade your goods or look for groups in Ironforge while in Stormwind.

Multiple Battlegrounds Queues

Players will be able to enter multiple battleground queues. No longer must you make the hard decision of which queue to join -- when queued for all three, you can join the first one available or hold out for that particular battleground which you've really got your heart set on. Should a queue open while you are already in a battleground, you may switch to the new battle or remain in the current on.

Soul Shard Bags

Tailors now can make soul bags to hold soul shards. The smallest is a 20-slot bag, the recipe for which can be purchased in Gadgetzan. The recipe for a 24-slot bag can be found in Scholomance, and one for an even larger bag can be found in Molten Core. In the main UI, these soul bags will display how many shards they contain. So long as the soul bags have room, any soul shards a warlock creates will automatically go into the bag. The counter on the bag will max out at the number of bag slots even if you have more soul shards in your inventory.

Raid Calendar System

The raid-lockout system has undergone a significant change. The new system will have all instances reset at a certain server time, regardless of when you were actually saved to the instance. The reset schedule is as follows:

  • Molten Core: Every 7 Days, resetting during weekly maintenance.
  • Blackwing Lair: Every 7 Days, resetting during weekly maintenance
  • Onyxia: Every 5 Days
  • Zul'Gurub: Every 3 Days
  • Temple of Ahn'Qiraj (40-man): Every 7 Days, resetting during weekly maintenance
  • Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj (20-man): Every 3 Days

All resets will occur during off-hours, when the least amount of raids are active.

Important Note for Mac OS X Users

The minimum supported Mac OS X revision for WoW will be changed in a post-1.9.0 patch, from 10.3.5 to 10.3.9. If you are running 10.3.5 - 10.3.8 and need to get the free update, you can use Software Update or you can click here for the direct download. This change will make it easier for us to release future updates to the game, for example to support upcoming Mac models based on Intel processors.

Details

  • All Disorient effects have been renamed Incapacitate effects. This includes [Gouge], [Sap], etc.

Class Related Changes

Druids

  • Bear and Dire Bear form - Effects that lower armor will now lower armor by a percentage of the druid's full armor, rather than just base (caster form) armor. However, [Enrage] will still only remove 75% of base armor.
  • [Omen of Clarity] - Special attacks will no longer consume their own clearcasting state. All melee attacks will now be able to trigger the clearcasting state.
  • [Nature's Grasp] - This spell can now trigger from special melee attacks. It will no longer be possible to cast [Entangling Roots] at no mana cost immediately after Nature's Grasp procs.
  • [Nature's Grace] - The Nature's Grace buff will now appear on the player upon completion of casting, before the travel time of the spell. So, [Wrath] crits will now benefit the casting time of the next spell cast.

  • [Improved Starfire] - The stun effect's duration no longer diminishes or is diminished by controlled stun abilities and spells (e.g. [Cheap Shot], [Hammer of Justice], [Charge] etc.).

  • [Cure Poison] - Mana cost now based on a percentage of base mana.

  • Paladins can now learn Greater Blessings for the following spells:
  • Greater Blessings will cast the associated blessing on all raid members that share the same class as the target. For example, if you cast [Greater Blessing of Might] on a warrior in your raid, all warriors in the raid party will receive Blessing of Might from you.

Paladins can purchase these new Greater Blessing spells from their class trainers.
  • Seals and Judgements - Added or increased damage per level so that these spells keep pace between replacements.
  • Judgements - Judgements that place a debuff on their victim will now all have their duration refreshed when the judging paladin strikes the victim with his or her melee swings. All these debuffs have had their duration decreased to 10 seconds. In addition, Judgements that place debuffs can no longer be resisted.
  • [Seal of Righteousness] - Now does holy damage on every swing. It can now proc correctly as well. The Judgement effect has been renamed "Judgement of Righteousness" to differentiate it from the Seal damage in the combat log.
  • Judgement of the Crusader - The holy damage bonus has been decreased as part of rebalancing paladin damage (which is still increased overall).
  • [Seal of Command] - The proc will occur more often, but will only do 70% of weapon-swing damage.

  • [Seal of Righteousness] - The damage bonus from +Holy damage has been reevaluated on this seal. Since the damage is delivered on every swing, the bonus has been reduced. However, paladins attacking with faster weapons should see an overall increase in the bonus from + spell damage gear. Mana Cost slightly increased.
  • [Seal of Command] - Damage bonus from +Holy damage items slightly increased.
  • [Seal of the Crusader] - Mana cost slightly increased.
