Patch 2.0.7 is hitting the Public Test Realms, and the patch notes have been released. You can read them below:
General
- The amount of haste granted by a point of haste rating has been increased by about 50%.
- 20 slot bags are now bind on equip.
- Any effect which benefits the victim of a critical strike will now trigger even if resilience converted the attack from a critical strike to a normal strike; this applies to melee, ranged, and spell. The affected talents, abilities, and items are: "Eye for an Eye", "Blessed Resilience", "Enrage", "Martyrdom", "Blood Craze", "Eye of the Storm", and "Bonespike Shoulder".
- The Crust Bruster has had a loot icon and sound change.
- Players can no longer send gift wrapped packages via COD.
- When sharing a quest, the order logic has changed to check whether or not the player has completed or is ineligible for the quest before checking whether their quest log is full.
PvP Battlegrounds

- Fixed a crash that could occur when on a flight path.
- Fixed the local defense channel so that it will properly change based on the player's zone.
Comments
It is designed to lock behind you once you trigger the event, to prevent people from zerging back to the boss in case they die, but once the party wipes, it is supposed to unlock. So the GM was partially right. The bug doesn't happen 100% of the time either, only about 90% (9 out of 10 for me at least). GMs will ALWAYS tell you that something is working as intended unless they know for sure, they will never admit to a bug unless they found out about it from the inside. It is part of their script, people seem to think that the developers are the GMs...no, they are the customer service. They are not always in the loop, they are there to help primarily with player issues such as harassment, scams, farmers, stuck in the world ect. When it comes to an actual bug, all they can do is forward your information to the devs. Kinda like when my internet is down and I call my ISP to let them know they are having trouble in the area...they never admit it is down, they try to tell me it is my problem, but sure enough, 20 minutes later there is the automated message saying there is an outage in my area. /sigh

Does this mean SMP support, or something else?
Well, all i can say is that the GM's that I have talked to said that it was designed that way, don't know what to tell you.
Yeah I love it when ignorant people say crap like that...go read

Please spare the world of your comments please? Many o GM have commented on the elevator being bugged.
lol training a weapon is so easy.....specially 300-350:P only afew hours
No it isn't, garendyn.
i dont think it is, i have had guildies have gm's port them through after a failed attempt
Not to pop your bubble or anything but there isn't a bug on the elevator... IT"S DESIGNED THAT WAY!!!!
I find it funny that more people take the time and energy to call people stupid who open COD gift packages, than to deplore the sleazy, disgusting scammers who send the things in the first place. Yeah, I know what you're going to say, that's the reality of what goes on now in the game. But that reality doesn't make it right, nor does putting down someone who got scammed.
"The items required to complete the Karazhan key quest can now only be looted by the first group in the instance to reach them."
Yeah, my guild is scrubs and are gonna be too lazy to hitch a ride with a group, then complain that they actually have to do the run.
I'm glad that Blizz is fixing this (I'm the kind to want to do all the 5 mans) but it's gonna give me a headache...
Um... FFS can we fix the Mechanar elevator bug? How long does it have to be broken and how many tickets have to be submitted about this for it to get some attention. We're not talking rocket science here, just disable the barrier.
I can't believe they actually made it so you can't send gift packages COD. Jesus people, it's your fault if you opened them. How stupid can you be?
Well, Blizzard apparently thinks that your so stupid that they needed to make this feature no longer available. I mean, jeez, honestly people, do you really think a complete stranger is going to send you something worth 10g in a gift wrapped package? Stop being iggnorant.
Blizzard should spend more time fixing drop rates, glitches and bugs, and other nonsense instead of taking time out to protect you from yourself.
I do recall that a certain Harbringer quest in the bone wastes is still bugged. How 'bout a fix for that? No you say? Too busy making it so people don't do something stupid and lose their gold? Oh.... I guess I understand.
ah well, no warlock buff this patch :/

And no mention of the hunter talents that rely on crits to proc... Feels like it's the forgotten class sometimes. :(
Why make a tree that relies on crits to work, when they at the same time remove the base for this?
