World of Warcraft Dev Tracker

Hello!

Please be reminded that all of Arena Points will be converted to Honor during the next weekly reset (on Tuesday September 14 in this region). The conversion rate will be 1 Arena Point = 10 Honor Points, up to the cap of 75000 Honor Points.

Additionally, Arena gear that is purchased just before the weekly reset will not be refundable for Arena Points after the reset.

Thank you!

Hello everyone!

We hope that you’re enjoying the new customization options that are now available on the 9.1.5 PTR for Nightborne, Lightforged Draenei, and Void Elves. We’re loving all the screenshots of the new looks that have been shared so far and we appreciate all your feedback.

We want to add some more excitement to your day. Remember when we said that we’ve set our sights on Highmountain Tauren next? Well… those new customization options for Highmountain Tauren are currently targeted to be implemented in time for 9.1.5! Here’s a sneak peek at some of those options.

Hello everyone! Here are today’s hotfixes:

SEPTEMBER 7, 2021

Covenants

• Conduit Energy now refills at a rate of 10 per day (was 1 per day).
  • Developers’ note: We are entirely removing Conduit Energy as a system in the upcoming 9.1.5 patch, but in the meantime, we wanted to hotfix in a stopgap measure that should effectively remove it as a meaningful constraint.

Items and Rewards

• The Trueheart Spear debuff can no longer be applied more than once on a target.

Hello.

It’s confirmed that a hotfix was deployed that made Conduit energy refill at the rate of 10 per day. It was previously 1 per day.

It looks like the hotfix needed realm restarts to take effect, so now that all realms in this region have been restarted with maintenance, everyone should be seeing the results.

Please note that the tooltip has not been updated. Nonetheless, all Conduit energy should refill each day with the daily reset.

Updated the original post. The Arena season will end at 10:00 p.m. PDT (1:00 a.m. EDT).

More PTR notes updates:

User Interface and Accessibility

• Group Finder Improvements
  • PvP Rating will now display when browsing for Rated PvP entries and in the applicant window.
• Summon Random Favorite Mounts will now summon a random mount if no mounts are favorited.
• Added a flying mount filter in the Mount Collection.
• New Transmogrifier cursor icon.
• New default backpack bag icon.

Updated the PTR notes with:

• Improved Chat Reporting Feedback
  • In 9.1.5, we’re adding confirmations for players who report misbehavior in chat, as well as for those who are likely to be reported.
  • When you report a player for verbal harassment or other disruptive chat in-game, we will notify you when action is taken against the player.
  • When we notice that your behavior has moderately changed for the worse, we will send you a warning message so that you can modify your behavior before receiving a penalty.
  • In cases where acutely inappropriate behavior is observed, the system may skip warning the player and take action immediately.

Updated the PTR notes with the following change:

User Interface and Accessibility

• Group Finder Improvements
  • Accounts now require an attached Battle.net Authenticator to post custom text when listing a group for Dungeons, Raids, or Rated PvP activities. All players may still search for and join others’ groups.
    • Developers’ note: A Group Finder that’s full of advertisements bothers us as much as it does you, but a challenge we’ve faced in trying to eliminate those ads is that they are often posted by compromised accounts or other throwaway accounts, such that penalties incurred by in-game reporting have not proven to be an effective deterrent. And regardless, relyin...

We’ve just opened the WoW Classic Era Public Test Realm (PTR) for version 1.14.0, which is now available for testing. While 1.14 does not include any new testable content, it’s important for us to establish this version, since it accompanies recent server-side and infrastructure updates that have been made to the World of Warcraft service.

Thanks in advance to anyone who logs into the PTR and submits bug reports using the in-game bug report tool (default hotkey: F6). We expect to apply this patch to WoW Classic Era during a standard weekly maintenance period in a few weeks.

The four new Druid Travel Forms now have two color variations each.
