With hotfixes that we are currently deploying to all WoW Classic realms, we are substantially increasing the number of players that can be simultaneously logged in and playing. We expect this to result in smaller queues for popular realms.
When you unlock Battle for Azeroth world quests, your Flight Master's Whistle gains the ability to work in the new lands. if you didn’t play Legion or destroyed your whistle, you will receive a Flight Master’s Whistle that works in Legion and Battle for Azeroth zones.
We hear you and agree. This was an oversight where we hadn't yet fully reviewed this set from every angle before putting it into the initial test build. We've already begun work to adjust the set, and you'll see changes to it in a forthcoming build of the Eternity's End PTR.
We are aware of, and as our top priority, we are working through issues that some players are having logging into WoW Classic, including the 'World Server Down' error. Thank you for your patience.
We’re working on an update to the game. With the next scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, players who have earned a given Rank 3 Essence on one character will be able to directly obtain that Essence from MOTHER on subsequent characters.
We’ve fully identified and eradicated a bug that caused some players to receive an unintended Mythic Cache reward earlier today. We’re working to remove all such unintended rewards from any characters who received them.
We’ve noticed a rising interest from WoW players about a mystery that was introduced to the game 11 months ago — Jenafur.
We appreciate the power of this community and wish you luck solving the secret!
Hey
@WarcraftDevs
and
@WatcherDev
a nice QoL idea. Whatever the highest layer of torghast (not twisting corridors) you have unlocked on one toon maybe have it an account wide option? lets say you have a layer 5 unlocked on your main, all alts have access to layer 5.
#Warcraft
We've pushed a hotfix that reduces the amount of XP needed for most levels between 40 and 100. Note that the new required amounts may not always display properly for the time being. We'll have details in the next hotfixes update.
Moments ago, we made the following hotfix live in all regions--
Emissary rewards of gold now provide 2000 gold (was 700).
Emissary rewards of Azerite now provide 1600 total AP (was 1000).
FYI: There are currently no "keys" for the Battle for Azeroth Alpha. All invites are done by granting access directly to a account. Any offers for an "Alpha key" at this stage are likely to be a scam.
We’re aware that with 7.3.5, we inadvertently made several older raids harder to run for mounts/transmog. That wasn’t our intention.
We’re working on further adjustments to health pools for enemies in Mists of Pandaria and Warlords of Draenor content.
Personally, I think it would’ve been more fitting to use the red colour variant for the 9.2 Gladiator mount to match the new red Keystone Master mount.
@WarcraftDevs
Our plan is to remove the one-Demon-Hunter-per-realm restriction with the Shadowlands Pre-patch, since that is the point at which Demon Hunters will no longer start at a very high level.
Wrath Classic raiding starts today. Since we last tested Naxxramas in the Wrath Classic Beta, we've made a number of fixes to the raid. Don't be surprised if attempts to skip bosses lead to disappointing results!
We're currently experiencing a DDOS attack, which may result in high latency and disconnections for some players. We're actively working to mitigate the issue.
We're working on an update, coming soon, to make improvements to the process of obtaining Corrupted items on max-level characters and also streamline upgrading the legendary cloak Ashjra’kamas.
Details here:
Following the weekly reset tomorrow, players who finish ZM Chapter 7 ("The Purpose") will receive an achievement for completing the Secrets of the First Ones campaign. We want to clarify that a final epilogue chapter, titled "Judgment", will become available the following week.
With realm restarts in each region, we've made this hotfix:
Bonus rolls that reward AP now instead grant 2,000 gold to players who have maximized their Heart of Azeroth.
Yes. In Tides of Vengeance, fist weapons can appear to be maces, one-hand axes, or one-hand swords, and maces, one-hand axes, or one-hand swords can be made to look like fist weapons.
@WarcraftDevs
Regarding being able to transmog fist weapons to one -handed weapons, will we be able to transmog one-handed weapons to fist weapons also?
Today, Saturday, September 7, the World of Warcraft service has been negatively impacted by an ongoing distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack. It is our top priority to resolve these issues.
Any chance we can get more cosmic flux per rated arena win? Im trying to gear NA character but i need 10k for conduicts + 8k for tier sets and without flying mount takes a lot of time
@WarcraftDevs
We have a known bug where all Bonus XP that's shown as a quest reward is being miscalculated. This is causing Torghast XP to be lower than intended. We're working on a fix for it.
For pre-patch and the initial leveling in Outland, we're lifting the cap on how many dungeons a Burning Crusade Classic character can enter every 24 hours:
In Battle for Azeroth, all of your Prestige levels are going to merge. So if you have three characters who reached Prestige 4 in Legion, your account will be set to Prestige 12 in Battle for Azeroth.
When prestige goes account wide is all of our characters prestige levels going to merge? Or just taking the highest prestige we have earned on 1 char?
@WarcraftDevs
While we work through the final steps of bringing Corruption Effects to MOTHER's vendor list, we decided to leave the Impressive Influence reputation buff active in all regions.
The buff will now expire on May 21 -- Thursday morning PDT.
We're working on a hotfix that will make the Alloy-Warping Facetor and the Death-Bound Shard purchasable by alts from Archvist Roh-Suir once one character on your WoW account has reached Tier 6 Research.
Unlike Ve'nari's rewards, the Archivist's Codex reputation rewards don't appear to be account wide.
This means that if you want to buy Conduit or Socket upgrades, you'll need to grind the reputation on each character.
#Warcraft
PSA: We're currently working on a hotfix that will increase the gold and Azerite rewards from Emissary quests. We hope to have this change live within the next 24 hours, so if you have an active Emissary that rewards gold or Azerite, you may want to wait to complete it!
In 9.1.5, our current intention is for all spells that previously had an 8 target cap to only have their damage reduced when striking more than 8 targets. Today, that threshold is 5 in the 9.1.5 PTR, but we'll adjust it in a future PTR build.
This should be clarified - could actually be a nerf to frozen orb damage on 6-8 targets since it used to hit 8 targets for full damage instead of the new 5 targets.
@WarcraftDevs
Today, we've enabled the Free Character Transfer service for players who have characters on high population realms that are experiencing consistent, extended queues.
Tomorrow, September 14, starting at 2 PM Pacific, Game Director Ion Hazzikostas will be on Reddit answering your questions in a World of Warcraft AMA!
Details here:
Dragon Glyphs, which give you the ability to increase your Dragonriding skills, are waiting to be found all over the Dragon Isles. They're account-wide and they can be obtained while you're leveling up in each of the zones.
“once you reach max level you’re going to find Dragon Glyphs”
Does this mean we can’t collect our Dragonriding upgrades until max level or can we pick them up while levelling?
@WarcraftDevs
The change to Emissary rewards mentioned in this tweet is now live. Azerite Armor caches can scale up to item level 370, based on your overall average item level.
For Burning Crusade Classic, we’ve been internally testing Horde vs. Horde or Alliance vs. Alliance Battlegrounds from the regular queue, and we’re ready to test it in the live game. Here’s the plan:
This is correct. The Vessel was moved to your Covenant vendor, because we wanted to ease the reputation requirement, and it no longer made sense for it to be offered by the Enlightened vendor.
We are continuing to investigate issues with performance in raids and are working to isolate and address them as quickly as possible. This is a top priority for us.
The Siege of Lordaeron is a permanent part of Battle for Azeroth and a pre-requisite for Kul'Tiras and Zandalar. It will remain playable like Broken Shore was for Legion.
@Warcraft
@WarcraftDevs
is the siege of Lordaeron still available for other characters to do after BFA launch or was it removed along with war of thorns?
The ability to adjust your Field of View was added in 9.2.5 as an accessibility measure to help combat motion sickness.
Increasing it past the max of 90, a maximum that has been in place since WoW launched, was not intended. We're working on a hotfix to cap it at 90.
The Alliance Hall of Fame is now full. Starting tomorrow in the Americas, and following with scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, Mythic Uldir will be opened to cross-realm raiding, and the Hall of Fame achievement will no longer be available to Alliance guilds.
With a hotfix to the live game, we’ve added a Conquest box that costs
375 Conquest and requires 1400 current rating to purchase, and a Valor box that costs 500 Valor and requires 1500 Mythic+ rating to purchase.
Au'Dara, the Heirloom broker located in Oribos, has them.
Yes. Our original intention was to require defeating Heroic Zul with a raid of only Hunters. However, there was a bug that caused it to be granted to a few Hunters through unintentional means. In the spirit of fairness, we've made it drop from any Normal or higher Zul kill.
@WarcraftDevs
Greetings! We here in the Secret Finding Discord have been diligently working towards finding out how to obtain the blood-soaked-tome. Today it seems there was a hotfix that went out that enables it to be dropped on normal and heroic Zul is this intended?
There was a bug in 9.0.2 with some helms, and the bug caused them to hide character elements like Draenei horns. We're fixing the bug as quickly as we can.
@WarcraftDevs
Will the Legion Class Mounts be obtainable in BFA and after? I have heard they won't be and I have heard they will be. I still want to get them all, but I still have classes to level up to get them? What will be the answer to this please.
The update that enables four additional character slots per server is now available! You'll need to restart WoW to allow the Blizzard App to pick up the update.
After our earlier tweet, we are working on a hotfix so that the Coldlight Surfrunner can drop when ANY murloc type is present on an Island Expedition. Furthermore, we're simplifying this entire system in Tides of Vengeance. More details on that soon.
There are different Murloc tribes in Azeroth, and so far, the kind of Murlocs that could drop Coldlight Surfrunner have not appeared on Island Expeditions.
Following the 9.2.5 update, there were a number of quests that became blocked due to an issue preventing NPCs from conversing with the player.
About an hour ago, we deployed a fix for this issue. If you’ve had a problem interacting with a quest NPC in 9.2.5, please try again.
We're aware of an issue causing boats and zeppelins to go missing on certain servers. We've developed a fix, but it requires realm restarts to take effect. We plan to do restarts early tomorrow:
@WarcraftDevs
hey guys I know you are probably busy as the servers are probably on fire but any chance you could fix the Auberdine boat to Menethil harbor? It’s not running on Kirtonos! Tryna play with my friend
@SeanGingerMoore
Thank you!
The Mount Equipment system will require that you have reached level 100 on one character. The equipment itself will require level 20 and will be account bound:
With a hotfix to the game that was applied a little while ago, we’ve removed a setting that was restricting players’ ability to consistently see and interact with others in their group in the four Shadowlands zones and the introductory Maw.
In Mythic+, Explosives now have 50% less health, and will no longer spawn from crowd controlled enemies. We're also working on a number of nerfs to specific dungeon creatures and mechanics.
