Legacy Raid Journal

5.10.0

Headlines since 5.9.0

• Trial of the Crusader's Heroic-only mechanics are on the pages for the first time
• Five boss pages that showed a heading with nothing under it are now filled
• One ability pointed at the wrong spell entirely, and two creature portraits at the wrong models
• Every heading now reads in title case

Trial of the Crusader had never actually been checked for Heroic changes

The tool that reads Heroic differences out of the encounter guides was pointed at the wrong page addresses for this raid, so it reported "no Heroic content" and that was believed. Now that it reads the right pages:

• The Twin Val'kyr — Touch of Darkness and Touch of Light are marked Heroic only, so they no longer appear on Normal where they cannot happen.
• Anub'arak — the Nerubian Burrowers' Shadow Strike is marked Heroic only.
• Festergut — Malleable Goo was missing from the page entirely. Professor Putricide throws it into the chamber on Heroic, and it now has its own section that appears only there.

The Northrend Beasts, Lord Jaraxxus, Sindragosa and Lady Deathwhisper were all read and deliberately left alone. Their Heroic differences are tuning and behaviour rather than new abilities, and marking those would wrongly hide them from Normal.

Pages that were a heading with nothing under it

• The Lich King — the Val'kyr Shadowguard now lists Life Siphon.
• Terestian Illhoof — Kil'rek now lists Broken Pact, the reason killing him matters.
• Moam — the Mana Fiends now list Arcane Explosion.
• Servant's Quarters — Rokad the Ravager now lists Ravage, and Shadikith the Glider gained Dive.
• Leotheras the Blind — his page described Inner Demon in the role tips but never listed the spell that creates it. Insidious Whisper is now there.

Six sections are still deliberately bare, and each has a reason rather than a gap: a portal and a phase with no abilities to list, two adds whose only record is the game's generic "Dazed", one creature with no record anywhere, and M'uru's Void Sentinel, whose Shadow Pulse is confirmed his but has no tooltip text for the game to show.

Corrected

• Lady Vashj's Poison Cloud was pointing at the Karazhan chess event's spell — its tooltip poisons chess pieces. Her poison is still described on the page; it simply no longer shows an unrelated tooltip. Every tagged spell in all nineteen raids was re-checked the same way; twenty-nine others looked wrong at first glance and were each checked and kept.
• Two Flamewaker portraits were blank, then wrong. Gehennas' and Lucifron's Flamewaker headers showed an empty circle, and after visiting another boss and returning they showed a different creature. Both portrait IDs were simply wrong. Every other creature portrait in the addon — all 160 — has now been checked against its own record, and the rest were correct.
• Ossirian the Unscarred's five Weakness debuffs now carry their real spell icons and tooltips instead of best-guess icons.
• Leotheras' demon-form heading no longer calls the Shadow of Leotheras "his inner demon", which collided with the Inner Demon that lands on players.

Presentation

• Every section heading now reads in title case — "The Damage Race" rather than "The damage race" — across 100 headings and 61 of the descriptive rows beneath them. Ability names that are real spells are left exactly as the game spells them.
• A tagged ability whose spell has no description of its own now shows the written description underneath, instead of a tooltip containing nothing but the spell's name.
