A new batch of hotfixes and changes have hit the live servers as Season of Discovery Phase 3 is starting to shape up in terms of the meta. Unfortunately, it seems that the WoW Classic devs have been spread thin as some players have reported some bugs and untested features, possibly due to the ovelap with the upcoming launch of Cataclysm Classic.

Regardless, the devs have pushed some notable changes and hotfixes to the game so we will be taking a look at what was added or fixed in World of Warcraft Season of Discovery.
