This article lists all of Patch 3.2.2's undocumented changes. See the main article for the official list of documented changes.
General
- The effect of armor penetration has been reduced. [1]
- Cost to learn Expert Riding has been reduced to 225g. In addition, the trainers in Thrallmar and Honor Hold are now part of the Orgrimmar and Stormwind factions respectively. [2]
- Vanity pets scale their maximum speed according to the player's current riding/flying speed, so they can follow the player even at epic flying mount speed. Ground pets may be slowed by obstacles though, of course, causing them to despawn if they fall too far behind.
PvP
- The vendors in Champion's Hall in Stormwind and in Hall of Legends in Orgrimmar have been renamed and/or moved.
- Lieutenant Karter <War Mount Quartermaster> and Raider Bork <Mount Quartermaster> (Alliance/Horde PvP mount vendors) have been moved just outside Halls and can be found mounted on a [Black War Steed Bridle] and [Horn of the Black War Wolf] respectively.
Battlegrounds
- Alterac Valley [3]
- The level brackets have been reorganized as such: 51-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80.
- The level of bosses in lower level brackets has been reduced to compensate for the bracket change.
Class changes
Death Knight
- Talents
- Unholy
- [Bone Shield]: The duration of this ability has been reduced to 1 minute (from 5).
- Unholy
Hunter
- [Volley]: The attack power coefficient has been increased from 0.0586 to 0.0837. Base points did not change. [4]
- [Kill Shot]: Minimum range re-added.
- Pets
- The hunter will now visibly throw its pet a given food item when feeding via item-on-portrait or via [Feed Pet]. This does not apply to pure buff items such as Sporeling Snacks or [Kibler's Bits]. Only food items.
Dungeons & Raids
- In the 5-player Trial of the Champion (normal and heroic dungeon), the transition from mounted to hand-to-hand combat has been changed so players no longer feel obligated to zone out. [5]
Professions
- Cooking
- Basic Campfire now has a 2 second cast time, down from 10.
Quests
Completing the daily dungeon quest from Archmage Timear now gives you the additional option to pick a [Sons of Hodir Commendation Badge] (500 rep) among the rewards.
Achievements
- The achievement Onyxia's Lair has been converted to a Feat of Strength and removed from the requirements for Classic Raider.
- The achievement BB King for Horde and Alliance to pelt the opposite faction's leaders was added in the Winter Veil category.
Items
- Added new item [Kvaldir Attack Plans].
- [Mammoth Cutters] have a new icon to distinguish them from [Frostbite Bullets].
- The size of nether ray mounts has been increased.
- [Parrot Cage (Hyacinth Macaw)] is now an epic-quality item.
- [Pint-Sized Pink Pachyderm]: The pet spell taught has been renamed to "Pint-Sized Pink Pachyderm". Old was "Summon Pint-Sized Pink Elekk"
- Battle-Bot has been renamed to "Warbot."
- Several winged pets will now fly alongside players mounted on flying mounts, including [Phoenix Hatchling], blood elf dragonhawk hatchlings, and draenei moths.
Bug Fixes
- An issue where some characters could only hit things at point blank range with the Complimentary Brewfest Sampler were corrected.
- Heirloom items now properly give extra experience in battlegrounds. This was bugged in the previous patch. [6]
User Interface
- CVar shadowinstancing was changed to default to 1 (On) rather than 0 (off), and has been tweaked from the previous version. This should result in better fps for most users, and fix an issue with shadows flickering.
