Patch 52 hotfixes for March 11

Another round of hotfixes has been posted on the official WoW blog. The latest set of hotfixes addresses some issues with various quests, items, and bosses from both the latest raid and a few old faces. Also included are a couple of changes to the world boss Oondasta, and the assorted mobs wandering the fabled Isle of Giants.

  • Zandalari Dinomancers on the Isle of Giants now have a much lower chance to drop the four raptor pets obtained on the Isle.

  • Players visiting a different realm are no longer eligible to receive loot from Oondasta or Nalak.

  • Meanwhile in Ahn'Qiraj, the Prophet Skeram and any illusions he creates during the encounter will no longer drop loot or provide reputation when killed. Don't panic -- this is a temporary change to address an issue with the encounter.

Read on for the full list of hotfixes.
