Last night, Blizzard's developers pushed a trio of hotfixes to the live servers, aimed primarily at all PvP players. First, you can now upgrade items from the weekly rated PvP quest with Contained Contaminants and the Pierced Eye of N'Zoth. Second, the Corrupted Gladiator's Trinket Grudge keeps affected parties in combat for the entire effect casting time. And thirdly, a bug in the Mantis Firebomb has been removed, thanks to which the damage against players was incorrectly high.

Below you can read the official English patch notes

.

As soon as Blizzard puts the German translation online, we will update this message. Hotfixes are updates that are applied server-side without the need to download new data. Some of the changes listed below will take effect as soon as Blizzard implements them, whereas others will only take effect after an announced realm restart. Please note that some issues cannot be fixed without a client-side patch
