Season of Discovery Phase 7 has a lot of players clearing the infamous bosses in Panoramas  whilst trying to get the best possible gear from Vanilla WoW, albeit with some added sprinkles. 

Having said that, the devs recently provided some meaningful changes and class tuning to the class sets as well as some QoL updates to the game. We will go over all of the hotfixes for SoD Phase 7 from the February 11, 2025 notes.

WoW SoD Phase 7 Hotfixes

WoW SoD Phase 7 Hotfixes
Blizzard Entertainment
  • Reduced the cost of World Buff consumables and reputation items purchased with Commendation Signets by 50%. World Buff consumable items now stack up to 20.
  • Fixed an issue that caused Scourge invasions to respawn slower based on number of layers on a realm. Scourge invasions now respawn regardless of the number of layers.
  • The spawn rate of Blood of Heroes in both Eastern Plaguelands and Western Plaguelands has been adjusted to accommodate the additional vendor cost of Tier 3 set rings.
  • Enriched Manna Biscuits from Argent Dawn reputation now restore a percentage of your health per second while inside Naxxramas, to allow players who have large health pools with the Seal of the Dawn active to get back on their feet faster.
  • The Violet Satchel quest now correctly requires the Violet Satchel and consumes it on turn in. Once the Violet Satchel quest has been completed, the Violet Satchel and Scrap of Parchment no longer drops. If you have completed this quest previously and have any of these in your inventory now, you can safely delete these items.

Karazhan Crypts

Naxxramas

Developers’ notes: We’ve reduced the requirement to micromanage your pet’s movement in cases where it doesn’t result in practical gameplay. We’ve retained mechanics such as Detonate Mana striking pets, or Sapphiron’s Drain Life and Heigan’s Disease hitting pets, as these provide gameplay moments beyond merely avoiding damage through movement.

Gothik the Harvester

  • Reduced the health of Gothik and his summons.

The Four Horsemen

  • Spirits of the Horsemen should no longer persist through resets.

Sapphiron

Class Tuning

Druid
Druid
  • The Restoration Druid Tier 3 2-piece set bonus will now correctly proc once every few seconds (was a proc on every instance of damage).
Hunter
Hunter
  • Changed the Melee Hunter Set so that the 6-piece effect falls off if you perform a ranged attack. Players can speak to Huntsman Leopold to exchange their Melee Tier 3 Hunter pieces, one way, for the Ranged Tier 3 Hunter pieces. This is a one-way trade, and the exchange will be removed on February 13.
  • A previously deleted Infernal Lasso can now be recovered from the Lost and Found vendor in Booty Bay.
Mage
Mage
  • The Healing Mage Tier 3 2-piece bonus will now correctly scale with Sanctified gear while inside of Naxxramas.
  • Fixed a problem where Mass Regeneration was replacing longer duration Temporal Beacons with shorter duration ones. It will no longer overwrite longer duration ones with shorter duration ones.
Paladin
Paladin
  • Seal of Martyrdom will now restore the correct amount of Mana while outside of Naxxramas if you have a Seal of the Dawn buff active.
  • The Retribution Tier 3 4-piece set bonus will no longer reset your swing timer when Holy Wrath is cast.
  • The Holy Paladin Tier 3 2-piece bonus will now correctly restore mana to the Paladin instead of their target when Lay on Hands is cast.
  • The Protection Paladin Tier 3 4-piece bonus applies correctly to the Malleable Protection version of Divine Protection.

Warlock
Warlock
  • The Tank Warlock Tier 2.5 4-piece bonus will now correctly remove the effects of Demonic Sacrifice if you summon an Incubus or Succubus when the other one was the target of Demonic Sacrifice.
  • Reduced the Warlock Tank Tier 3 4-piece bonus cooldown reduction on Demonic Grace reduced to 3 seconds (was 10 seconds).
  • Reduced the Warlock Tank Tier 3 4-piece bonus cooldown reduction on Infernal Armor to 10 seconds (was 30 seconds).
