WoW May 22 Hotfixes Sweep Across Classes, PvP and Raids
Blizzard released a broad May 22, 2026 hotfix round for World of Warcraft and related modes, delivering extensive class balance tweaks, PvP adjustments, raid/dungeon tuning, and various item/quest fixes. The notes cover multiple classes (e.g., Death Knight, Druid, Paladin, Hunter, Mage, Rogue, Shaman, Warlock, Warrior), PvP rating changes, and progression systems (Conquest, upgrade crests, Bloody Tokens, Season 1 Prey), with some fixes requiring realm restarts or client patches. The patching scheme spans May 1–22, continuing through late May with ongoing balance and QoL refinements.
