Dear Players,
while we left you empty handed last sunday, we have another video and changelog for you today. This showcase is the second dealing with NPC AI and shows mostly how NPCs use their Crowd Control abilities and how they behave against players affected by crowd control effects.
This week we are also able to present you a changelog again. Among the fixes are Engineering Items, Warlock Spells, including the abilities of the enslaved Doomguard, Rogue mechanics concerning Sap and Vanish as well as minor fixes to NPCs all around Azeroth.
We look forward to your thoughts and feedback in the forums.
