The Darkway, Friends List & Plunderstorm Parties
Friends List
The friends list with LunTag support is now fully functional. Add friends, accept and decline requests, remove friends, and leave notes about them.
See at a glance who is online, which character they’re playing, their level and zone, and whether they’re Away or Busy.
Send a Broadcast message to all your friends at once.
Whisper your friends directly, whichever character they’re on.
Plunderstorm
Play with friends:
Invite friends to your party right from the lobby’s friends list.
When the leader joins, the whole party queues together.
In the match, your party fights as one squad, with no friendly fire.
Party chat now works both in the lobby and during the match.
The match now starts as on retail: first a countdown while players are summoned, then the start timer.
Delve: The Darkway
Tier picker:
Choose a tier from 1 to 10 at the entrance.
The current story is shown in the picker: Focusers Under Pressure, Leyline Technician or Ogre Powered, rotating daily.
Enemies now scale with the tier and the size of your group.
Infiltrator Gulkat is the final boss of every story. Watch out for his Twilight Illusions.
Rewards by tier:
Voidlight Marl, plus Dawncrests from Tier 4.
A Bountiful Coffer on every tier, opened with a Restored Coffer Key.
Every 100 Coffer Key Shards now turn into a Restored Coffer Key when you enter a delve.
Entering a delve starts a new run if your saved one is finished or was on another tier.
The Leave-O-Bot 7000 now becomes usable when you finish.
Bosses no longer reset when you stand in shallow water.
The Shadow Enclave now uses the same tier scaling and rewards.
Hunter
Black Arrow now applies its damage over time.
Bleak Powder now makes Black Arrow explode behind the target. Its damage is reduced beyond 8 targets.

Tensile Bowstring: Trueshot now reduces Aimed Shot’s cast time and Focus cost.
Quick Draw: Aimed Shot now grants movement speed that decays quickly.
Withering Fire: Bestial Wrath and Trueshot now grant Withering Fire and Deathblow.
Monk
Touch of Death can now be used on enemies whose health is lower than your maximum health.
Combat & Interface
Loss of control alerts:
The big “Stunned” icon now appears, and enemy frames show which crowd control is on them.
When your cast is interrupted, the alert also shows the locked spell school and its timer.
The totem bar now clears a totem as soon as it is destroyed or expires.
Absorb shields now disappear from unit frames the moment they are used up. This applies to damage shields, mana shields and heal absorbs.
Enemies that are already casting when they come into view now show their cast bar.
Dismissing a pet now plays its dismiss sound.
Achievements and rewards that depend on your Mythic+ Rating or on currency caps now work.
A failed Catalyst conversion is no longer shown as successful.
After a teleport, you no longer keep flying at full skyriding speed.
World & Dungeons
Creatures that never appeared are now back:
L’ura and Saprish in Seat of the Triumvirate.
Sapphiron in Naxxramas.
Vengeful Shade in Maisara Caverns.
Shadowguard Champions and others.
