WoW: Hotfixes from December 3rd fix class bugs

After the number of hotfixes that the WoW developers released over the weekend was relatively sparse before the release of Dragonflight, there is now a whole load of large and small changes via mini-patch on the first Saturday of Dragonflight. With the hotfixes from December 3, 2022, the developers fix various class bugs, among other things, but also nerf the item levels of the rewards from the events Trial of the Flood and Trial of the Elements.

Below you can read the official English patch notes. As soon as Blizzard has published the German patch notes, we will update this message. Hotfixes are updates made server-side without downloading new data. Some of the changes listed below will take effect as soon as Blizzard implements them, while others will only take effect after an announced realm restart. Please note that some issues cannot be fixed without a client-side patch.
