World Of Warcraft 3.0.3 Patch Notes
November 4, 2008 by tcgames
Massively.com has posted a complete list of patch notes for the latest World of Warcraft patch 3.0.3…
Today the 3.0.3 patch for World of Warcraft has dropped! Of course, our brethren over at WOW Insider are all over it. Within the sacred patch contains a laundry list of tweaks, changes and bug fixes. Just about every class is touched on here, so there’s plenty to look through. Inscription is also given plenty of attention with lots of little tweaks. Achievement addicts will be happy to know that the “Hallowed Be thy Name” achievement is now much easier to obtain with this patch as well. Most of the bug fixes seem to be class related, but there are a couple of stability fixes in there so hopefully servers will be as smooth as possible for the Wrath of the Lich King launch day.
- General
- Removed “A Mask for All Occasions” as criteria for the “Hallowed Be thy Name” meta achievement.
- Replenishment: Players below level 50 can now benefit from this effect.
