Another batch of hotfixes have hit live servers as this time around, the devs have primarily focused on tuning the Mythic+ content for Season 2 of The War Within. While players are busy trying to clear the new raid and explore all of the new goblin-themed content in patch 11.1, Blizzard is busy improving the gameplay by either adjusting some issues or providing further quality-of-life changes to the game.
With that being said, let's take a look at the hotfixes from March 7, 2025.
