<p>I now lose Stealth when zoning after the patch today. Guildies were also reporting losing mounts and totem buffs.</p>
It's much worse than that. Quests and lockout timers are also resetting.

FWIW: I have confirmed that stealth is dropping between zones, at least for my Monk anyways. I can't comment on Quests or Zone Times. I heard that Buffs were being dropped but mine still remain.

Anything that is new upon zoning, any new buffs (like stealth) is being dropped, every single time you zone. It includes quest updates, new quests, stealth, etc.

<p>Here's another symptom with a bit of background to explain:</p><p>Last night I logged off inside the Court of Truth. I was on my carpet, of which wasn't displayed of course.</p><p>This morning I'm outside the Court of Truth riding my now displayed carpet...all is well it would seem.</p><p>However, when I dismount my carpet then enter the Court of Truth my Carpet Icon returns to my Maintained Spells window.</p><p>Sure enough, if I exit the Court of Truth I'm back on top of my carpet.</p><p>Something is seriously wrong here.</p>

But also you lose tradeskill recipes as I posted in a different topic.

Any new buffs, new skills, new items, everything, you will lose it when you zone. It re-sets you back to how you were when you last logged out of the game. We're really going to need some down time and fast....

Regardless of what I remove and what I might add.
