 * Chests in Dire Maul have temporarily been disabled to stop players from exploiting them, which was resulting in realm instability and instance crashes on multiple realms. This includes only the normal chests and should not affect tribute runs. A more permanent fix will be applied in Patch 1.7, and the chests will be reinstated then.

 * The following changes were made to Vaelastrasz in Blackwing Lair:
 * Burning Adrenaline will now ignore line of sight, as intended.
 * A bug that allowed Burning Adrenaline to be dispelled with invulnerability effects (such as Divine Shield and Ice Block) has been fixed.
