Forever hotfixes: 5 November
KaivaxBlizzard’s 5 November hotfixes repair respawn timers in Durotar, Dustwallow Marsh and the Swamp of Sorrows. They also fix 
Druid training on Zephras, 
Plainsrunning stacking in battlegrounds and two quests.
Highlights
- Plainsrunning can no longer stack in a battleground’s preparation phase
- Lotheluum Starbreeze on Zephras now trains Druids
- Zephras Isle trade supply vendors sell apprentice tradeskill bags
- Mild Spices sell for 1 copper (was 2)
What this means for players
Druids on Zephras can now train from Lotheluum Starbreeze. Players with Plainsrunning no longer get stacked speed in a battleground’s preparation phase, and carrying a flag cancels any stacks.
Plainsrunning stacking and Zephras fixes
Plainsrunning could be stacked during a battleground’s preparation phase and now cannot. The rest is respawn and vendor repairs. Yarrog Baneshadow in Durotar, murlocs in Dustwallow Marsh and Pelluk in the Swamp of Sorrows had spawn timers that were off. On Zephras, Druids can train again and trade supply vendors sell apprentice tradeskill bags.
