- Cloud Serpents have had their pet family changed from Serpents to Lesser Dragonkin, but the ability to tame Cloud Serpents has not been changed in any way.
- Lesser Dragonkin taming is currently planned to be a reward from the Valdrakken faction.

- MONK
- Class Tree
- Developers’ note: Additional connections have been made in several areas to allow more free-form navigation of the talent tree as a whole. We’ve enjoyed seeing your creative builds, and look forward to seeing what you can do with the increased connectivity.
- Vivacious Vivification now grants an instant Vivify once every 10 seconds.
- Developers’ note: We really liked the idea of pushing Vivify as a more responsive heal, but Vivacious Vivification as a 100%, always-on reduction to the cast time of Vivify was reducing the decision space for the class as a whole and completely obsoleting Soothing Mist in particular. With this change, we hope to strike a balance of allowing players a skill-testing emergency heal they’re excited to invest into, while still making more sustained with multiple Vivifies a more significant investment that will encourage using the full breadth of the toolkit.
- Expel Harm moved back to baseline for all Monks.
- Developers’ note: The prior positioning of Expel Harm was too restrictive and forced the selection of other abilities.
- Heavy Air replaced with Vigorous Expulsion.
- Developers’ note: While we were excited about offering additional range and control of the battlefield, player feedback was clear that this talent didn’t feel valuable enough to invest in.
- Vigorous Expulsion increases the healing of Expel Harm by 5% and the critical strike chance of Expel Harm by 15%.
- Strength of Spirit increases the healing of Expel Harm by up to 200% based on current maximum health. Moved to the Class Tree from Brewmaster.
- Profound Rebuttal increases the critical healing of Expel Harm by 50%.

- Paralysis has been moved to Row 3.
- Paralysis Rank 2 has been moved to Row 4.
- Developers’ note: Players offered feedback that Paralysis and its upgrade didn’t feel optional even in situations where they would not be useful, so we’ve rearranged the tree to increase overall choice.
- White Tiger Statue damage has been reduced by 75%.
- Developers’ note: White Tiger Statue is intended to be a solid contributor, but was doing a little too well in some situations. We continue to tweak value to find this cat a new home.
- Windwalker
- Multiple talents have been updated to address issues.
- Touch of the Tiger, Flashing Fists, and Hardened Soles now correctly persist through zone transfer.
- Shadowboxing Treads, Jade Ignition, Xuen’s Bond, Bone Dust Brew, Attenuation, Bone Marrow Hops, Last Emperor’s Capacitor, Keefer’s Skyreach, Xuen’s Battlegear, and Way of the Fae now again function outside the Shadowlands.
- Glory of the Dawn has been updated to scale with the Monk’s attack power, rather than using a flat value
- Open Palm Strikes has been converted to a percentage bonus to Fists of Fury Damage.
- Meridian Strikes has been converted to a percentage bonus to Touch of Death.
- Resolved an issue where Power Strikes was not correctly re-applying the bonus effect.
- Developers’ note: We appreciate the Windwalker community’s patience with these technical issues and apologize for the delay in addressing them.
- Monitoring the interaction between Shadowboxing Treads and Mark of the Crane.
- Developers’ note: The interaction between Shadowboxing Treads and Mark of the Crane is very powerful, and we’re paying close attention to the impact it has on Windwalker AOE gameplay and targeting flow when engaging groups of enemies. We’ve reduced the damage provided by talented Shadowboxing Treads in this build, but Mark of the Crane applications currently remain.

PLAYER VERSUS PLAYER
- RATED SOLO SHUFFLE
- In Dragonflight, we’re continuing our work on the Solo Shuffle game mode by upping the stakes and adding the ability for players to earn (or lose!) rating, similar to our Rated Battlegrounds and Arenas. In this week’s PTR and Beta build, players will be able to participate in the Rated version of Solo Shuffle. Just like in Rated Battlegrounds and Arenas, you’ll be able to earn seasonal rewards and achievements, credit towards Vicious mounts, weekly great vault progress, and Conquest. Solo Shuffle’s rules and 6-round format continue, with the addition of rating changes based off of the amount of rounds each player has won during the match. We’ll be monitoring and adjusting matchmaking throughout beta to facilitate testing.
Unique to this Rated game mode, players will have a rating tracked for each of their character’s specializations. Players will select which of their specialization to queue with, and participate in specialization-based ladders and end of season rewards. Players will also notice that we’ve created a minimum item level feature for Rated Solo Shuffle specifically, but we do not have it currently set to our final value for Season 1 of Dragonflight.
We’re extremely appreciative of all the community feedback we received from our brawl version of Solo Shuffle, please continue to share your thoughts with us in our forums or @WarcraftDevs on twitter. Please keep an eye out for future Play with the Blues events focusing on Solo Shuffle on Beta.
