This set of hotfixes brings small adjustments to the on-going anniversary event and its rewards, The Lurker Below encounter loot drops in Serpentshrine Cavern, and fixes an issue with the recently released Baby Murloc Satch-Shell.
More notably, the Beginning the Collection quest is no longer required to start completing Archivist relic quests in Korthia, and with regional restarts, the Explorer of the Shadowlands achievement will be renamed to Shadowlands Voyager, to make room for the new Shadowlands Explorer achievement.
