- World of Warcraft Client Patch 2.3.3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The latest patch notes can always be found at

General
- Some players may notice improved data load times when newly entering
the world and after zoning into new areas.
- Character/NPC load times have been decreased, and now should appear
faster. You’re not hearing voices, there really are people in
Shattrath!

Bug Fixes
- Felspine the Greater in Shadowmoon Valley will no longer evade when
engaged.
- Guttripper in Nagrand will no longer evade when engaged.
- Players will now be correctly credited with their arena points if
they purchase an arena item during weekly arena calculations.
- Using a castsequence macro on a target moving out of range will no
longer cause it to stop working.

Let's see what they break!

Lies. There's nobody in Shattrath except myself and a small pile of skeletons at the bottom of Aldor Rise.

Oh, and that Scryer Gnome Mage who didn't know that Ice Block causes you to fall through the elevators, but he quickly joined the latter group.

Sort of on topic, but not really: Why is the 2.1 patch the latest news on the front page, if 2.3 is out?

I got bit by this bug one week. Was not happy. Of course, all I got was "this is a known issue" and no points restored...

That's why I hate small patch notes. I always know they did more than what is listed. Like: "We fixed some minor error that 1/100000 players might experience during a solar eclipse." A day later "The recent patch apparently is not compatible with any commonly used video card, we will fix this in a future patch. The expected patch release date is July."

Not quite

Thankfully. When I logged into Shatt I was surrounded by gnomes

Well, from my experience this change is pretty unwelcome. It makes Shattrath Lag™ a lot worse. I was running around the Lower City looking for The Rokk (Hey, cooking dailies...) and... Well, every five or so seconds my framerate would chug as my client tried to load every fresh player.

Not pretty. Worse than naked gnomes.

My guildmate's WOW install, apparently.

Patching stopped at 99% with an error, and, I believe, uninstalled most of WoW. It took him three re-installs to get it working again.
