Trying the old methods will now result in a message informing of the change and directing players to interact with the object inside the keep.
• Reduced trash mobs near Griblik da Stinka and moved others further from the boss, so parties can now use the flat area near this boss to spread out if needed.

• Ol' Greenwingz cooldown increase has been nerfed, and will now only impact half the party instead of all 6 players.
• Reduced the HP of the Nurglings that spawn in the Garrolath fight, so they die faster and he heals a bit less.

• Masta Mixa's sticks will no longer randomly pick a Tank or Healer as their target, and will instead prioritize a DPS player, unless no DPS players can be found alive. As before, the stick(s) will only ever lock down a single player at a time.
