WoW: Forever November 11 Hotfixes Tweak Paladins, Tailoring Bags, and Item Restoration

Posted on by

Blizzard pushed a new round of World of Warcraft: Forever hotfixes on November 11, 2026, covering class bugs, quest blockers, profession adjustments, and a temporary customer support change. The biggest immediate note: Item Restoration has been disabled while Blizzard investigates what it calls a critical bug.

Paladins also got a meaningful change. Judgement is now treated as a Ranged Attack, so it no longer counts as a melee attack for item and effect procs, and it now uses the Paladin’s ranged hit chance. Retribution’s Unsealed Fury was adjusted too, following the fix that stopped Windfury Totem from activating through Holy Strike.

  • Feral Druids should now see Rend and Tear work properly with Pounce Bleed.
  • Hunters got two Volley fixes: it should no longer trigger procs, and it should stop channeling when the Hunter moves.
  • Gnome Priests can now use Confounding Flash while in Shadowform, and Holy’s Twilight Focus talent should also work correctly in Shadowform.
  • Shamans should see Flametongue Totem Rank 2 working again.
  • Several Riverglades enemies were toned down, including Twilight Enforcer’s Smash and Executioner Morg. Twilight Forgemaster’s Mark of Flames now increases damage by 50 instead of 1000.
  • Tailoring bags that were smaller than intended have been corrected, with Red Mageweave Bag moving to 14 slots and several silk and wool bags moving to 12 or 10 slots with slightly higher material costs.

The patch also fixes a few progression snags. Players should now be able to interact with the Command Tent for Scarlet Diversions in Western Plaguelands, use the Witherbark Mallet for The Giant in the Den in Arathi Highlands, and continue Freedom for All Creatures in Feralas after a stuck cage door issue.

On the item side, Bloody Claws of Attack now properly grant +1 Fist/Unarmed Weapon skill, while Earthen Silk Slippers no longer provide more spell damage than intended. Blizzard also fixed a Shen’dralas bug that prevented mounting in named areas.
