Well as we had thought and heard it seems that the long awaited Patch 2.4.2 is Live!!! WHOOT!!!!

So what does this mean? Well, the official patch notes aren’t up on the site yet (so make sure you read them as their being downloaded) but I expect at the end of the maintenance period everything to be up and running.

One noted missing item is the long expected fix for the Kill Command macro bug. One can only hope that our friend Hortus will make some official comment as to it’s status and where we stand on this.

As for the other fixes, we have tried to include all of the the Hunter related changes mentioned in the Official Release Download Notes.

Hunters

• Aspect of the Viper: This ability now grants an additional amount of mana each 5 seconds equal to 35% of the hunter’s level.
• Boar Charge: This ability will no longer make Growl cast immediately after it generates excessive threat.
• The pet ability Growl will no longer scale with pet Attack Power and now scales with the hunter’s Attack Power.
• Dire Ravens in Blade’s Edge Mountains are now tamable.
• Scare Beast: The Range on this spell has been increased to 30 yards and it is now instant cast.
• Tamed Drywallow Snappers now will Know Bite 5 (instead of Claw 5).

Items

• Bow of Searing Arrows and Red Whelp Gloves will no longer break crowd control effects.
• Most Main-Hand Weapons are now One-Hand weapons.
• Shadowsong Panther will no longer prematurely despawn.

Bug Fixes

• The Vengeful Gladiator’s Rifle will now play the proper sound when used.
• It is no longer possible for pets to get stuck in place after exiting the Spectral Realm in the Kalecgos encounter.

Now that 2.4.2 is Live and with the recent deluge of information regarding the next expansion. Maybe.. just maybe.. we’ll get some Beta news or an official release date on WoTLK!!
