In addition to fixing general bugs like some of the Necrolord Rogue Death Spike issues, in this hotfix Blizzard has also added additional means of transportation within the Sanctum of Domination. Death Gates can now be used to travel through the raid, hopefully saving many the dreaded walk back to boss rooms when they forget to soulstone their healer.
