Nightmare Incursions

Greetings,

As we approach the release of phase 3 of Season of Discovery, we wanted to take a quick moment to talk about the new Nightmare Incursion feature and to set a few expectations around how this will function. This is quite unlike anything we’ve done thus far in Season of Discovery and in order to prepare you for what you’ll face, we wanted to provide a short primer to help prepare you for your first few incursions.

So, what are Nightmare Incursions?

Nightmare Incursions are new outdoor content that is predominately PvE-focused (though PvP will occur on a PvP server in these ...

The current PvP season in Wrath Classic is ending soon. The evening before weekly maintenance, at 10:00 p.m. PDT (April 15), Season 8 will end. There will be an off-season period until Season 9 goes live after Cataclysm launches.

Please note that Arena Points will be converted to Honor when patch 4.4.0 releases.

Have a good fight to the finish!

The current version of Bloodstained Commendations are going to remain purchasable until Thursday when Phase 3 launches. Make sure to buy any you want before then!

World of Warcraft Patch Notes
Version 10.6.2
April 1, 2024

Producers’ notes: Now that we’ve released a whole patch without any leaks, we can rest assured that we’ve eliminated leaks forever. There’s no way this one will leak. Nope. No chance.

CLASS CHANGES

We’re pleased to announce that, due to the unprecedented state of nearly-perfect balance across all classes in all content, we cannot find any spell or ability that would be better changed than left unchanged. This patch is a celebration of players’ incredible skills in both PvE and PvP, where all are equal and seemingly no class is undesirable.

Thank you very much for bringing about such a wonderful moment!

Classes

• Evoker
  • Preservation
    • Fixed an issue where Time of Need functioned incorrectly and could stop casting Living Flame when the Evoker had a high amount of Haste.

Mounts

• Any Keg Leg’s Crew Renown rewards that were not granted to players of the appropriate Renown levels are now retroact...

We know what’s causing this, and we’ll have it sorted out in about two minutes.

Making manual changes to your installation of WoW is not recommended!

Thank you for your patience.

Today, we’ve updated the Cataclysm Beta to build 53973, which includes the 80-85 Cataclysm leveling experience, the character copy function, and templates to get you straight into the endgame.

At this time, the following features have been added:

• Level 80-85 zones are unlocked.
  • Vash’jir (Level 80-82)
  • Mount Hyjal (Level 80-82)
  • Deepholm (82-83)
  • Uldum (83-84)
  • Twilight Highlands (84-85)
• Leveling Dungeons
• Level 80 players will begin to gain experience.
• Character copy
• Archaeology

The following features are still a work-in-progress, and are unavailable for now:

• Reforging
• Transmogrification
• Guild system updates
• Dungeon Journal
• LFD
• Tol Barad

We’re curren...

You’re correct.

The intention is for the party lead to be the pilot. The bug has resulted in the same player in a Duo always being put in the pilot’s seat.

We actually fixed this bug a couple of days ago, but the fix won’t fix things until we do realm restarts.

So-- probably after scheduled weekly maintenance on Tuesday, you’ll see that the Leader is always piloting the bird.

My people, this has been corrected now. We SHALL be counted.
