Today’s hotfixes are in for Phase 5 Season of Discovery, with a some tweaks to a couple of pieces of Blackwing Lair Loot, a change to Shazzrah in Molten Core, and a few fixes for the new epic class quests for Mages and Warlocks.

Cloak of Draconic Might and Essence Gatherer have both had their item level increased by 5 to put them more in line with other items from Blackwing Lair. The stats of both items have increased slightly as a result.

For groups raiding Molten Core on Heat level 3, Shazzrah will no longer create two clones, which should make the fight a bit easier for those looking to quickly clear it with their new Phase 5 gear.

The Essence of Fire quest for Mages and The Final Test for Warlocks have both had some bugs squashed, which should make it easier to acquire those epic weapons.
