Heartbleed Account Security

Blizzard

Many news sites are reporting a vulnerability (dubbed the Heartbleed bug) discovered in OpenSSL, an encryption technology used by a majority of websites and online services—including banks, email providers, and social media sites—to protect sensitive data as it’s transmitted from users to web services.

We want to emphasize that Battle.net’s encryption was not affected by this vulnerability. However, if you use the same password on Battle.net that you use elsewhere, your Battle.net account could be at risk if those sites were affected by this bug.

If the above situation applies to you, we recommend changing your Battle.net password to a new, unique password. As always, we recommend that you maintain separate login credentials for each online service you use. Using the same email or password across multiple services greatly increases the potential impact of any compromise.

More information about the Heartbleed vulnerability can be found at http://heartbleed.com, and you can find additional information on how to protect your Battle.net accounts at http://www.battle.net/security.

On Garrosh Heirloom Bad Luck protection

@tomrom83 Garrosh heirlooms have "bad luck protection" - you should start to see more and more each week as you get more kills.

@tomrom83 Yeah, separate items, so separate chances. You wouldn't want getting a Flex heirloom to hurt your Normal chance. Keep at it. Soon!

On Heirlooms and stat-switching:

@oliviadgrace @WatcherDev we're still discussing it; seems more likely they will not change since they are based on iconic gear.

On the replacement of spirit with other stats on Heirlooms:

.@Dolsonwow In 6.0, the Spirit on the Warmace has been replaced with another stat, for exactly that reason.
— Watcher (@WatcherDev) April 10, 2014

On Heirlooms in PvP:

@ChritznL @HamletEJ @oliviadgrace @WatcherDev @holinka removal of base ability damage will impact low level PvP moreso than heirloom changes
— Russ Petersen (@nite_moogle) April 10, 2014

On the return of Skirmishes - a reminder:

.@relvaz1 Yes, skirmishes will make their triumphant return in Warlords.
— Holinka (@holinka) April 10, 2014

Implication that a blog is coming on Battle Rezzes:

@GraaMeeV1 We'll be releasing more info on that topic in the next iteration of our patch notes - hasn't been discussed yet.

Garrison Preview series coming:

Comentario de ZombloatVery glad to see changes with the Bind on Account items from Garrosh. After many kills, I've only gotten 2 items from flex, and none from Normal mode.
