WoW Shadowlands: Hotfix eliminates dungeon lockout and more
The developers have also made some changes to various class skills. Among other things, this affects the demon hunter, the druid and the magician. There are also adjustments to the covenants and some dungeons. The team also lent a hand with the World Quests and the roguelike tower called Torghast.
