World of Warcraft Hotfixes Patch Notes (9th June 2026)
Blizzard has rolled out a fresh round of hotfixes targeting class balance and bug fixes across World of Warcraft's multiple versions.

Blizzard's latest hotfixes are live across World of Warcraft: Midnight, Mists of Pandaria Classic, Season of Discovery, and the classic versions. The update focuses heavily on class balance, with buffs rolling out to specs that were underperforming relative to their alternatives.
Demon Hunters get the biggest treatment here. Aldrachi Reaver was lagging behind other Hero Talent options, so Reaver's Glaive and Warblade's Hunger are both getting significant damage increases across both Havoc and Vengeance. Mages see targeted buffs too, Arcane and Frostfire are getting their single-target and AoE damage brought closer in line with Spellslinger, while Fire gets a straight Pyroblast bump. Rogues' Deathstalker tree is also getting a lift, particularly for Assassination specs where it was trailing noticeably behind.
Outside of damage tuning, there's a solid batch of bug fixes: Holy Priests get mana cost reductions on core healing spells, Mists of Pandaria Classic has transmog costs slashed by 90% after they shipped way too high, and various PvP and item issues have been addressed. Check the full notes below for the complete breakdown.
