Blizzard has just rolled out a small but noteworthy hotfix for World of Warcraft Classic: The Burning Crusade Anniversary celebration!

According to Community Manager Kaivax, the team addressed an issue with one of the most iconic encounters in Karazhan:

Fixed an issue that was causing the Karazhan Chess Event to run much faster than intended, allowing Medivh to cheat more often than he should. Sneaky Medivh!

Players had noticed that the Chess Event was completing at an unusually rapid pace — giving Medivh (and sometimes players!) an advantage that wasn’t part of the design. This hotfix restores the intended pacing and difficulty, ensuring the event feels as epic as it’s meant to be.
