A new patch for World of Warcraft: Legion is out now on the Public Testing Realm. Patch 7.1 introduces a lot of hotfixes, features, and changes to the game. One of the most notable of these is that users playing the game on a higher resolution, such as 2K or 4K resolutions, will no longer have to suffer the ignonimy of a freakishly small cursor on the screen.

That apart, this remains a relatively lower profile update for the game, after how far reaching the past few ones have been. You can check out the list of changes below. World of Warcraft: Legion is available on PC now.

World of Warcraft Legion October 12 Hotfixes

Class Halls

General and LocalDefense chat channels are now functioning properly in the Shaman Class Hall.

Dungeons and Raids

In Mythic Keystone dungeons, Shadow Priests who die due to Surrender to Madness expiring should no longer incur a 5 second time penalty.
