Changelog weeks 9-28, 2026

Major changes:

  1. Complete rewrite of Azjol'Nerub, including:
    • Krik'thir's watchers no longer engage on a timer, but after the death of other watchers, in sequence. Krik'thir only engages once all watchers are dead.
    • Hadronox event rescripted in full to be Blizzlike, including Blizzlike add pack handling, add spawns, gate web event, and fixed web grab hitting targets through the floor
    • Rewritten Anub'arak logic to prevent adds getting stuck on ramp leading to platform and prevent submerge spikes from triggering after early emerge
  2. Fixed missing dynamic object despawns (such as Volleys and Blizzards lasting forever), thanks in part to AzerothCore's open source development
  3. Wintergrasp: Each consecutive loss of a faction in Wintergrasp makes the faction gain 1 Tenacity on next fight, to balance who owns the keep
  4. Rewritten threat handling to rectify threat dropping in instances
