World of Warcraft – Hotfixes: October 16, 2026

What’s in this update

Dungeons and Raids

• Murder Row
• Added a visual indicating the safe zone of a barrel during Murder in a Row.
• Developers’ notes: Recently, we addressed an issue where Zaen Bladesorrow’s Murder in a Row could incorrectly assign a player’s safe spot to a barrel they weren’t hiding behind. With the fix, players must stand closer to a barrel to be protected. To better communicate this change, each barrel will now have a visual indicator showing the radius of the safe area players need to hide behind a barrel during Murder in a Row.
• The Venomous Abyss
• The Coiled Altar
• Fixed an issue where the achievement Watch Out Behind You was unable to be completed by raid groups larger than 20 players.

Labyrinth and Delves

• Fixed an issue with the “Returning the Bounty” scenario in Jan'alai's Refuge that would occasionally prevent the Pit Boss from spawning in the labyrinth.
• Fixed an issue that caused Valeera’s Stagger to not function when there was a healer present in the delve or labyrinth.
• Fixed an issue that caused the Scar of Kathra’natir damage over time effect to deal more damage to Valeera than intended.
• Fixed a rare issue that could cause players to fall through the map in The Speaker's Chamber area of The Labyrinth of Kindo'jan.
• The Loa-Blessed Wayfarer mount and Loa-Blessed Victory toy are now granted after completing the labyrinth by speaking with Kinduru if they were forgotten to be looted from the Ancestral Bounty chest before leaving.
