Heroes and Talents

Abathur’s Symbiote is no longer visible when near the edge of the Fog of War. Casting Abathur’s Ultimate Evolution on a target affected by the Garden Terror’s Spore Queen’s Curse no longer causes a plant model to persist on the clone. Arthas Ghouls no longer instantly die to Anub’arak’s Web Blast Glow effects for Arthas’ Frostmourne Hungers no longer visually persist through polymorph-type abilities. Bolt of the Storm and Zeratul’s Blink can no longer be cast while rooted. Chen’s Storm, Earth, Fire Spirits no longer become unable to cast Abilities if Triple Attack is used to jump into the enemy Altar of Storms. E.T.C.’s Mosh Pit now properly reveals Cloaked Heroes. Visual effects for E.T.C.’s Guitar Solo are no longer visible through the Fog of War. Gazlowe’s Deth Lazor should now properly freeze enemy Structures and Minions after learning the EZ-PZ Dimensional Ripper Talent. Fixed an issue in which Illidan’s The Hunt could cause unexpected behavior with Zeratul’s Cloak. Fixed an issue that could cause Illidan to fly out of the playable area when casting the Hunt and then shift-queuing Dive into Zeratul’s Void Prison. Heroes that activate the Ice Block Talent can no longer queue Abilities until Ice Block has expired. Kerrigan’s Assimilation Trait now appropriately grants Shields for damage dealt by her Psionic Pulse Talent. Li Li’s Cloud Serpent will now attack mounted Heroes. Li Li’s Timeless Creature Talent no longer allows two Cloud Serpents to be present simultaneously on the same target. A range indicator is now displayed when hovering the mouse over Malfurion’s Innervate Ability icon. Fixed an issue in which Muradin’s starting Health regeneration was much higher than intended. Muradin’s Haymaker targeting arrow will no longer persist on the target, nor display through the Fog of War, if Muradin is killed before Haymaker can be cast. Nova’s Holo Decoy will now appropriately use Basic Attacks even if it does not have enough Mana to cast Abilities when it is spawned. Fixed several inconsistencies that could occur with Raynor’s Penetrating Round after learning Talents that modify its damage. Fixed an issue that could cause Rehgar to briefly pause before his first Basic Attack after casting Feral Lunge. The cooldown for Rehgar’s Ancestral Healing is now appropriately reduced to 10 seconds if the Ability is cancelled. Rehgar will no longer exit Ghost Wolf form when activating the Farsight Talent. A Stitches that Gorges a hero and then becomes affected by Zagara’s Devouring Maw will now continue to hold onto the Gorge target until Devouring Maw expires. Stitches’ Hook will no longer become visually stuck to targets that cannot be pulled. Fixed an issue which caused summoned units to deal half damage to Heroes with the Superiority Talent. The duration bar for Tassadar’s Archon will no longer remain visible on the death screen if Tassadar is killed while transforming into his Archon form. Casting Tassadar’s Dimensional Shift immediately after being struck by Tyrande’s Sentinel will no longer cause the revealed indicator to persist on Tassadar until his next death. Fixed a rare issue in which Tychus could be immediately killed upon exiting the Odin after entering it at full Health. Corrected a tooltip which incorrectly indicated that Tychus’ Drakken Laser Drill was only dealing half its actual damage. If Tyrael’s Judgment is cancelled prior to reaching the target, he will now continue to fly toward the target’s previous location rather than drop into unpathable terrain. Casting Tyrande’s Sentinel now displays an appropriate minimap icon after learning the Ranger Talent. The visual effects for Valla’s Manticore Talent will no longer persist on Tassadar during Dimensional Shift.

Sound

Illidan’s Metamorphosis voiceover is no longer globally audible. The First Blood announcer voiceover is no longer played for each Murky death while watching a Replay. Grave Golem attack sounds are no longer audible through the Fog of War. Selecting Sgt. Hammer’s Hyper-Cooling Engines Talent while she is dead will no longer cause the associated sound effects to play before respawning. Voiceover indicating that a Garden Terror is spawning will no longer default to English when another language setting is selected.

User Interface

Fixed an issue that could cause excess UI elements to appear upon returning to game menus after playing with a Hero that cannot use Mounts. A party member that cancels the matchmaking queue just as the countdown begins will no longer cause the bottom navigation bar to disappear for remaining party members. The Hero Level progress bar on endgame Summary Screens now more accurately reflects the amount of XP required when very near level-up. Bringing up the Radial Ping Menu on the minimap will no longer cause the minimap to stop functioning.
