Patch 5.4 hotfixes for September 11

What's the one thing you should always expect on the heels of a brand new patch? Hotfixes -- and Blizzard doesn't disappoint, rolling out the first of what will likely be several batches of hotfixes over the following weeks on the official blog. Along with a few tweaks to the Siege of Orgrimmar raid are some adjustments to creatures and quests on the Timeless Isle and elsewhere.

• Burning Berserkers and Eternal Kilnmasters on the Timeless Isle will no longer charge players who are not in combat.

• Zarhym should now be behaving himself and properly despawning after the event to search his body has begun.

• Hunters on the Timeless Isle that use Dire Beast should no longer be summoning snakes of unusual size.
