    • Fixed a bug where area of effect periodic damage spells were being resisted more frequently than they should have been when casting lower level ranks of the spell (affected spells were Spell frost icestorm [Blizzard], Consecration, Spell fire selfdestruct [Explosive Trap], Spell fire selfdestruct [Flamestrike], Spell nature cyclone [Hurricane], Spell shadow rainoffire [Rain of Fire] and Ability hunter rapidkilling [Volley]).
    • Consecration and other similar spells can no longer be used by non-PvP flagged players to damage PvP flagged enemies.
