That joke is so old, the Big Bang woke it up. That joke is so old, the last time I heard it I fell off my dinosaur. That joke is so old, the Burger King told it when he was still a prince. Wait! Those are all old jokes, too!

A new batch of hotfixes for patch 6.1.2 have just been released. Today's list includes several changes and adjustments to the Blackrock Foundry raid, including several tweaks to the Blackhand encounter on Mythic difficulty.
