With a hotfix that is now live, we’ve implemented a highest-layer-sharing system for players who wish to plunder Torghast on multiple characters.

Now, when you’ve completed a Torghast layer on any character on your account, your other characters will have access to it (as long as they meet the usual requirements for Torghast).

Players who have been running Torghast regularly should now find their highest layer available on their alts. This unlock sharing can’t look back very far though, so if you haven’t run Torghast in a while, you’ll need to complete a run on your main, and you’ll then see the higher layers available on your alts.

Please note: Twisting Corridors remains separately shared to alts, and completing Twisting Corridors only will not grant access to normal layers for other characters on the account.

With scheduled weekly maintenance in each region this week, we’re deploying a slate of adjustments and fixes to Dungeons and the Castle Nathria raid. Our goals are oriented around eliminating some pain points while reducing difficulty in encounters that have shown themselves to be frustrating.

Dungeons and Raids

• Manifestation of Pride (Prideful Affix) now sees through Stealth and Invisibility effects.
• Plaguefall
  • Margrave Stradama
    • Plaguebound Devoted health and damage reduced by 40%.
    • Reduced the cast frequency of Infectious Rain during her final phase.
    • Slightly adjusted the timing of Plague Crash so there is a little more time between tentacle slaps.
• Sanguine Depths
  • Fixed an issue where flying Chamber Sentinels would fail to contribute Enemy Forces requirements on Mythic Keystone difficulty.

In our testing on the new PTR, we’ve been able to have multiple people get it at the same time.

In this thread, feel free to discuss any class issues related to the reduction of spell batching that you’ve come across while testing the 1.13.7 PTR.

Please submit bug reports via the in-game bug reporting tool in the PTR.

Thank you for testing with us!

Today, we’ve opened the WoW Classic Public Test Realm (PTR) to test version 1.13.7 of WoW Classic. In this upcoming version, we intend to reduce the spell batching delay.

There are numerous class abilities and spells from Original World of Warcraft that were re-implemented in WoW Classic with spell batching in mind, and we initially expect bugs or adverse consequences with spell batching reduced. In this PTR, testers have an opportunity to join us in finding such issues. Raids and battlegrounds are available in this PTR to facilitate testing in a wide variety of game content.

• Initially, the spell batch window is set to 10 milliseconds on the 1.13.7 PTR, a reduction from the 1.13.6 live window of 400 milliseconds.

Please use the in-game bug reporter (default hotkey: mouseover+F6) in the PTR to submit your bug reports or feedback on abilities with spell batching reduced.
