The latest round of updates for World of Warcraft Fixes some of the annoying bugs that prevented quiet bonuses in inns or when playing with characters under 110.

Also the phenomenon of the lightning Azurite Equipment sometimes hit opponents who were not in combat and thus inadvertently led to larger fights. Furthermore, buffs for weapon warriors have been announced and the scaling of championship is increased directly. Instead of 1%, 1 point of Mastery now increases deep wounds damage by 10%.

The detailed World of Warcraft patch notes can be found below:
