Patch 1.12.1 hit today! Aren't you excitied? No? Well, I am not that fired up either, as I wasn't expecting too much. And nothing much is what I got.

Not a lot of groundbreaking stuff in these notes, beyond the riding skill switch that we have discussed a bit around these parts. Although I guess being a warlock and getting a shard credited to me when I log out and log back in when I have a pet summoned is something. It isn't something that great, but it is indeed something.

Click the link to the notes and you will find your typical bug fixes, graphic updates and such. Am I missing something exciting?

Complete notes after the jump...
