Hotfixes (Ignis included) update 18-04

[Fenz]

•We have altered XT-002 Deconstructor's heart aggro radius down to 60 yards so players will no longer get stuck in combat when at the entrance to his room.
•The trash mobs before XT-002 Deconstructor have temporarily been disabled. These mobs will return in the future after we have resolve the issue with them being linked.
•Shattering a Construct during the Ignis the Furnace Master encounter will now decrease the number of Strength of the Creator stack buffs he has by one.
•You can no longer check the box to make your character “at war” with the Sunreavers faction.
•Upon completion of the quest “The Last Line of Defense” you will continue to the proper phase for the story in Icecrown.
•We have hotfixed the damage of the Warlock spell Conflagrate from 100% to 70% of Immolate’s total periodic damage instantly. The tooltip may still show 100% until a future update though.
•Death knights casting Reaping will no longer cause Pestilence to convert 2 Blood Runes into Death Runes.
•The Dark Rune Sentinels in the 10 player Razorscale encounter have had hit points and damage reduced.
•The effects of Meltdown will no longer be able to be bypassed by using Divine Shield.
•Each difficulty level of Flame Leviathon’s hard modes have had the boss’s health increased.
•We have temporarily removed Emblems of Valor and Emblems of Conquest from all levels of difficulty from the chest, Freya's Gift, that you receive upon completion of the Freya encounter. We will restore these in a future patch when the issue has been resolved.
•The enrage time for the Razorscale encounter has been increased to 10 minutes.
•The Dark Rune Watchers will no longer cast chain lightning while moving.
•Elemental Mastery will no longer allow a player to cast 2 spells instantly.
•Ignis the Furnace Master should no longer melee attack the players he is picking up.

Guess this wasn't live on the EU realms yesterday, not sure if they are now already.

Siege Engines that use Steam Rush while on a ramp sometimes fall through the world.
We currently have no fix for this, the workaround is simply to not cast Steam Rush on the ramps. The ability works fine in the Flame Leviathan fight and other flat ground.

The two trash pulls in front of XT-002 Deconstructor are linked.
UPDATE: We've disabled the XT-002 Deconstructor Trash, but the hotfix will not despawn currently spawned trash. A soft instance reset should hopefully find the trash no longer present, but it's also possible the fix might require a full server restart.

Shattering an Iron Construct in the Ignis the Furnace Master encounter does not properly reduce the number of stacks of Strength of the Creator on Ignis.
UPDATE: This has been hotfixed so that shattering a Construct removes one stack application of Strength of the Creator.

There are reports that players are being melee'd by Ignis while in the slag pot.
We're investigating this.

These were the ones that were already in yesterday.
So both the increased enrage time on Razorscale and the fix on ignis werent in then.
