Jailer & Nuova patch – Tante nuove informazioni giungono dal PTR di World of Warcraft, dove in questo momento gli sviluppatori di Blizzard stanno testando le numerose novità che verranno introdotte con la patch 9.2.
In questo speciale andremo a fare un rapido aggiornamento sulle interessanti news che provengono dall’ultima patch pubblicata dai devs, ma anche sugli ultimi leak scoperti dai data miner riguardo il Jailer, ultimo encounter che dovremo affrontare nel raid di Sepulcher of the First Ones.
Iniziamo proprio dall’ultima patch di bilanciamento, cosi da evitare “inavvertiti” spoiler in chi sta cercando informazioni sul Jailer e sul nuovo raid.
Con l’ultimo aggiornamento pubblicato, i devs si sono concentrati principalmente sulle classi, svelando degli importanti buff per il Death Knight e per lo Stregone, ma anche numerosi bilanciamenti per il Demon Hunter, il Paladino e lo Sciamano, con l’ultima classe citata che ha registrato anche un lieve fix al talento Earthgrab Totem del Restoration.
Andiamo a vedere tutti i dettagli (gli SPOILER sul Jailer si trovano sotto il blue post):
CLASSES
- Death Knight
- Abomination Limb (Necrolord Ability) damage increased by 20%.
- Abomination’s Frenzy (Necrolord Runecarving Power) now increases enemy damage taken from the Death Knight by 20% (was 10%), and enemies affected by Abomination’s Frenzy now also take increased damage from your Minions for the duration.
- Convocation of the Dead (Conduit) now reduces the cooldown of Apocalypse by 1 second per Festering Wound burst at all ranks and now also increases Festering Wound damage by 15%.

- 4-piece: Consuming a Lesser Soul Fragment reduces the remaining cooldown of your Immolation Aura or Fel Devastation by 1 second.

- 2-piece: When Malefic Rapture extends Absolute Corruption, it instead causes the target to take damage equivalent to a tick of Corruption.

- 4-piece: Name changed from Blasphrit to Blasphemy and now summons a Blasphemy Infernal instead of a generic Infernal. If a Blasphemy Infernal is already active and would be summoned again, its duration is extended by 8 seconds instead and does impact damage at its current location. Additionally, Blasphemy grants Rain of Chaos for his duration if it’s talented.

Additionally, this new Legendary can be equipped alongside another Shadowlands Legendary in a different armor slot, giving you two powerful legendary effects to boost your power.
- If you’d like to craft the new covenant-swapping Runecarving Power on a different armor slot, a new Runecarving Memory is available on the Enlightened reputation vendor that will let you do so.
- Developers’ note: Setzertauren in Oribos has the Legendary belt available for testing on the PTR.

Cosa sappiamo sul Jailer e sul nuovo raid? (Attenzione Spoiler)
Per quanto riguarda il nuovo raid di Sepulcher of the First Ones, sappiamo che tutti i boss della sua versione mitica saranno contemporaneamente sbloccati all’inizio della terza settimana dal rilascio della patch, ad una settimana di distanza dal rilascio della versione normale ed eroica dello stesso raid.
Con l’ultimo aggiornamento pubblicato nel PTR alcuni dataminers hanno anche scoperto delle interessantissime informazioni sul Jailer, in particolare il titolo che questo ci garantirà una volta sconfitto, ed anche l’animazione della sua morte una volta che verrà sconfitto nel raid.
Per quanto riguarda gli achievements, sappiamo che i giocatori delle prime 100 gilde dell’Orda e dell’Alleanza che riusciranno a sconfiggere il Jailer (solo quelli che partecipano all’incursione ovviamente, non è un achievement di gilda) in modalità mitica riceveranno il titolo “Famed Slayer of Zovaal the Jailer“.
Queste invece le animazioni della sconfitta del boss, una volta che avremo azzerato i suoi punti vita:
