Patch 5.0.5[]

Note: This is a generic section stub. You can help expand it by clicking Sprite-monaco-pencil Edit to the right of the section title.

As of build 16030 the patch version was changed to 5.0.5.[1]

There were not apparent dramatic changes as of the Live release build 16048 on September 11, 2012, so likely this version change was in further preparation for the expansion release. Blizzard must have had its hands full, since the launcher screen still showed the Patch 5.0.4 notes and official site was not updated with new patch notes for this patch as of the client release.

A hotfix client patch build 16057 was released to Live on September 13 2012.
