Patch 3.2.2 known bugs

There are currently two major issues Blizzard has announced.
The first is a series of display problems, which Blizzard recommends you do the standard deleting of the WTF, Cache, and Interface folders. Before you do that be aware that removing the folders will delete all your add-ons and add-on preferences. In my experience, you're better off deleting the Cache folder and then updating all your add-ons, or just disabling add-ons which are out of date.
More detailed instructions for Windows and MacOS X can be found in Syndri's post on the official forums.
The other issue that items which are tradable under the BoP rules are not able to be socketed. This appears to not be affecting everyone, however there is a work around in the following steps:
- Enchant the item
- Enchanting the item will remove the tradable timer, the BoP item will be bound to you and you won't be able to trade it
- Gem the item
There are other problems out there that we're getting reports of, however nothing else has been confirmed by Blizzard yet so it's all conjecture at this point. If hear anything substantial or are able to independently verify bugs ourselves, we'll let you know.

Just FYI, my 80 druid just got stuck in Isle of Conquest on Whirlwind. the BG crashed, but we (ally team) could still type and chat. could move toon, but all other toons were frozen exercising in place.
my toon is now locked in there. joy, blizzard. joy. : /

Launching a patch during a holiday. Great idea.

my guild has encountered a few bad ones today .
1) in H old kingdom the last boss spawned 5 copies of every one in the group per person in the group, (yeah that's 25 total adds per person)
2) the rate of glancing blows seems to be up significantly against bosses. This could be bad luck but all the melee have been noticing a 6-8% increase in the glancing blows in tonight's raids

On the gemming problem, what about items that can't be enchanted? :P

My favorite bug so far is that in Ony's lair (at least on 10), every time I hit a monster with starfire it refreshed my moonfire 100% of the time - got up to 15 stacks at one point. Seeing moonfire ticking for 50 seconds is all kinds of wrong, lol.

Blizz rushed the patch because of Aion and it ended up biting them in the ass. Btw Aion is pretty cool.

Currently there is this lovely tooltip in the feral druid tree....
Infected Wounds
Your Shred, Maul, Mangle attacks cause an Infected Wound in the target. The Infected Wound reduces the movement speed of the target by 50% and the attack speed by 20%. Stacks up to 2 times. Lasts 12 secs.
Sadly it is obviously just a typo and we can't keep people's movement speed at -100% :(

I am playing on EU servers and there certainly is no lag.
Mail wroks.
Everything seems perfect over here.
I guess we are always happy in EU getting the patch one day later.
BTW: Read morons: this patch was already in Mid August on the PTR.
The average PTR period for any smaller patch has always been 3 to 4 weeks.
We will raid Onyxia tonight !
:))))

Millari Sep 23rd 2009 8:14AM

Best bug ever in this patch: in 10 man Ulduar, the dwarves that normally man the left gunner slot on the demolishers are sitting in the catapult. If only you could launch them...

What about that big bug outside of Ironforge - the one with a handful of daily quests (some creatively hidden by not being true marked dailies) for the silly amount of tokens required for achievements, and the boss in brd that sometimes allows you to complete the quest, sometimes doesn't? What about that bug?
Oh, nevermind, it's just Brewfest, version 750.0, or whatever different, somewhat working iteration we're up to this year.
I'm not bitter in any way :-)

Just a small one, but it seems as though on the Heroic Trial of Champions dungeon, the Transition between phase 2 and 3 is not exploding all the ghouls, leaving between 5 and 7 alive and irritating (for my group, anyway). Is this an expected change?
On the plus side, the Factions Champs after the joust do seem to be working in the 'aggro table wipe then reset' fix.

Before the patch, the Drill was DCing me everytime.
That does not happen now.
Shade Sep 23rd 2009 1:10PM
Priests are having fun with PWS stealing spells. One of my friends was very pleased to get a soul shard in their inventory. Another somehow managed to cast exploding shot. A third...
...well, the third happened to cast PWS -just- as the tank taunted a boss.
You ever seen a priest taunt something? Doesn't last long!

#1 bug: 3.2.2 shipped on 9/22/2009 instead of when it was ready.

@ Ayane
Ever read The Legend of Drizzt series? That's human female/elf male.
Druidor Sep 24th 2009 8:31AM
Well 3.2.2 has brought another bug, Dalaran Cooking award achievement bugged as it reset your award count to what you have when the patch was done,
I went from 96 awards the night before the patch down to 25 after patching, even though I have the 50 achievement & all of the cooking recipes.
Not a bleat from Blizz but a few posts on EU forum with others affected.
