A new hotfix blog has gone up today, with a really random line-up of fixes in play.

• PVP is a hot target, with healing and damage absorption being reduced by 15% during PVP combat.. Also, Druid’s Starsurge and Warlock’s Haunt are getting their damage reduced in PVP combat.
• A fix for Warmaster Blackhorn in Dragon Soul?
• Also some loot fixes in Hellfire Citadel, specifically for Combat Rogues and Affliction Warlocks.
• In probably the most relevant hotfix, taunts from Bodyguard Followers won’t affect Supreme Lord Kazzak. Should make tanking him more manageable.

Read today’s changes below and the full list of changes on the official blog.
