Thunder Lizard damage reduced from 1d11+30 to 1d8+26.Lightning Lizard damage reduced from 1d8 + 16 to 1d8 + 14.Lightning Lizards, Thunder Lizards and Storm Wyrms no longer friendly fire - their attacks only hit hostile targets.Creep autocast Heal heals 12 hp a cast not 15.Creep-cast Polymorph duration reduced to 25.All basic siege units (Mortar Teams, Catapults, etc.) have had their night sight increased to 1100 from 1000.Dryad hitpoints increased to 435 from 380.This change was made to further specialize Dryads as melee killers, but allow piercing damage units, such as Crypt Fiends and Archers, to counter them more effectively. Dryads now have the unarmored armor type.Ancients temporarily lose their fortified armor when they uproot, becoming medium armor units.Chimaera Roost cost reduced to 230/70 from 280/100.Cyclone duration on units increased to 15 from 10.Bladestorm cooldown reduced to 3 minutes, down from 4 minutes.Raider Ensnare lasts 12 seconds, down from 20 seconds, and has a cooldown of 12 seconds, down from 20 seconds.Raiders now have light armor instead of heavy armor.Bloodlust cost reduced from 50 mana to 40 mana.Halls of the Dead now has 1750 hitpoints, down from 2000.Black Citadel now has 2000 hitpoints, down from 2300.Necropolis cost reduced to 300 gold, down from 350 gold.Acolytes now have 220 health, up from 180.Web lasts 12 seconds, down from 20 seconds, and has a cooldown of 12 seconds, down from 20 seconds.Curse now lasts 2 minutes, up from 1 minute.Curse now causes a 33% chance to miss, up from 25%.Thunderclap debuff is 50% at all levels, and lasts 5/3 at all levels.Slow duration vs heroes reduced to 10 seconds from 20 seconds.Inner Fire cost increased to 35, from 25.Flares now cost 75/25 to research, down from 100/50.For instance, the Slaughterhouse builds 20 seconds faster now, while the Arcane Sanctum build time was only reduced 10 seconds This reduction ranged from 20 seconds for especially underused structures, to 10 seconds for less underused structures. Most advanced technology structures had their build times reduced.Hero damage was added so that heroes no longer strongly counter ranged units such as Archers and Crypt Fiends. It deals 100% damage to everything except fortified armor, to which it deals 50% damage. Heroes now have an aptly named hero damage type.Casters, including Dryads, have had their mana regeneration rates boosted by 30%.Many autocast buffs and debuff costs reduced.They no longer gain damage as they go up in level, and gain less hitpoints as they go up in level (but start with more hitpoints when initially built).

They had their damage adjusted, typically downwards.

They also have a new damage type, magic, which does reduced damage to fortified and hero armor, but does bonus damage against medium armor.

They have a new armor type, unarmored, which takes bonus damage from siege and piercing attacks.

The specific changes to the units in question are: In general, units with piercing damage rip up spellcasters, while basic melee units, such as Ghouls or Footmen, are weak against spellcasters. Most spellcasters (Sorceress, Priest, Shaman, Witch Doctor, Necromancer, Banshee, Druid of the Talon) have been re-balanced.

The good news is that the code being changed probably leads to it happening for next patch, may it be 1.28b, 1.29, or something else.This patch will update Warcraft III to version 1.06, and apply the following changes: That could explain why it isn't mentioned in the patch notes. So since we got reports that the delay feels the same, we've concluded that while the code has changed, it's probably not fully implemented yet. But as of this patch, both functions now return 100, which means latency has been reduced. Previously, the functions returned 100 for LAN and 250 for. Update reverse engineered the functions that control the artificial latency in network games, both for LAN and games. Previous patch: Warcraft III - Patch 1.28

We'll add more information here and in Patch Discussion if / when new info surfaces. We expect for the mention of the the order IDs fix to be included in the patch notes after Blizzard updates their thread.

It has indeed been confirmed fixed, meaning maps broken or partially broken by 1.28 should also be fixed. The only thing missing from the patch notes on the left, is about the order IDs bug. The expected minor followup to 1.28 is here. Launcher / Patching / Installing Issues (1.28 / 1.28.1)
