We’ve designed some fixes for the issues, and we hope to be able to open Warbanks following scheduled weekly maintenance tomorrow morning.

We’re working on a series of hotfixes to adjust Molten Core, and we don’t expect to get these changes implemented until some hours have passed after weekly maintenance tomorrow morning.

  • Ragnaros no longer submerges twice on Heat 1.
  • Baron Geddon now casts Armageddon at 5% on Heat 1 (was 10%).
  • Baron Geddon now casts 2 Living Bombs at a time on Heat 2 (was 3 casts).
  • Living Bomb no longer leaves Living Fallout pools on Heat 1.
  • Flamewaker Protectors now cast Dominate Mind much less frequently.
  • We’ve maximized the cast and recast times of several dispel mechanics.

We’ll let you know when these changes go live tomorrow afternoon.

Congratulations NOTA!

Anyone get a look at that spicy meatball?

About 5 minutes after Molten Core opened, we deployed a hotfix to correct immunities on non-boss enemies. Players who zoned in during the first few minutes can expect to find boss adds that have unexpected immunities.

If you wish to, a soft reset of the instance should result in the non-boss enemies spawning correctly. Also, quickly swapping to a different Heat level and back to your original Heat level at the Hydraxian NPC near the entrance will reset the boss add immunities without needing an instance reset.

Thank you!

We’ve identified an issue with cross-realm trading that requires us to temporarily disable the function.

We’re working on a fix, and until we’re finished with that work, cross-realm trading should fail when attempted.

We’ll let you know as soon as we’re done.

Thank you!

That’s correct.

We deployed a fix for this bug 20 minutes ago, at 6:51 p.m. PDT.

Now, player-characters that only unlocked Steady Flight prior to 11.0.0 can again use Steady Flight as expected.

Hello.

In The War Within, we’ve increased health pools by 60% relative to Dragonflight values. Many spells scale with player health values, so we’ve reduced many of these spells so their relative value remains similar between Dragonflight and The War Within.

Life Cocoon was among the percent-health scaling spells chosen to reduce to keep its value the same between expansions, as we did not feel it was a weak spell throughout Dragonflight (with or without modifying talents). So Life Cocoon’s value is about the same relative to its strength in Dragonflight.

We’ll keep an eye on it to ensure it’s handling scenarios appropriately in The War Within all the same.

Thank you for your feedback!

Hello.

We just want to clarify that we implemented the class trees for this patch as intended, and this is not a bug.

The current War Within Pre-expansion patch includes our initial class and spec changes. As you can see in the Beta, there are more changes coming-- changes that we’re adding with the full War Within expansion.

Between now and then, we may deploy urgent tuning and bug hotfixes to classes, but the trees in the live game are working correctly.

We have a couple of known issues with Action Bars that we’re working to quickly fix.

  • For some players, upon login, action bars 2-8 are unintentionally disabled on all characters. Players in this state will have to manually re-enable any of your extra action bars through Options > Gameplay > Action Bars. Pre-existing keybinds and spells should display with the re-enabled action bars.

  • New characters’ (level 10 and below) spells on the Action Bars may not save on logout. The same issue may cause some existing characters to have all spells wiped from their Action Bar on logout if they do not create a new loadout.

We intend to fix these issues as soon as possible.
