World of Warcraft hotfixes for June 26
A new batch of hotfixes for patch 6.2 have been posted to the official blog, including more changes and adjustments to several Hellfire Citadel encounters, as well as some Ashran changes. Hotfixes that were previously listed as Hotfix in Testing have now apparently been fully implemented. In addition, quite a few bug fixes have been made — Leorajh should now correctly open the command interface for players, and sorry, low-level alts, but Supreme Lord Kazzak will no longer be dropping felblight for players under level 100. Read on for the full list of hotfixes.
