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?

We wanted to take a moment to recognize that the first day of the pre-expansion content update for The War Within resulted in extended downtime for many players in North American realms. In recognition of this, we're adding one day of extra game time to every subscription in North America, Latin America, Australia and New Zealand for accounts which were active as of July 23, 2024.

We anticipate providing this compensation to affected players on or before August 15, 2024. Players will be able to view their game time by visiting account.battle.net.

We appreciate your continued patience as we navigate through any lingering issues to ensure that player experience going forward into the launch of The War Within expansion goes smoothly starting with Early Access on August 22 and t...

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!

It's time to put on your fire resist gear to face Onyxia in her lair and Ragnaros, the fire lord, in the Molten Core.


World Bosses Now Live

Experience Lord Kazzak and Azuregos as brand-new instanced versions of these encounters. These encounters can be experienced with up to 40 players but will be tuned as 20-player content, making them both pick-up-group-friendly with 40 players, but also giving players the option to maximize their rewards by attempting them with 20-players.

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.
