Bobby’s Thinking Cap Notes has been restored.

Some players may have gotten these notes a day early. We put out a quick fix yesterday to address bags that had this item locked in them. Today, the notes were restored so players could read them and complete the secret with its clue.

On the PTR, Icecrown Citadel is now closed. We’re very pleased with the results of this test period.

Looking ahead, we plan to next test Random Dungeon Finder and Defense Protocol: Gamma, starting in a few days. Yes, we’re working on making Defense Protocol: Gamma queueable from the Random Dungeon Finder.

And our plan is to open a second test of ICC on September 15. That one will run through September 20.

Thank you very much for testing this patch with us!

Rumors are everywhere you go, but behind every rumor are secrets to be found—clues even—which lead throughout Azeroth’s varied and variegated landscapes to ancient artifacts and hidden treasures.


What is Secrets of Azeroth?

Beginning on August 31, players will be tasked with putting on their thinking caps to uncover who is behind a recent string of artifact thefts through a variety of daily clues, with the last clue revealing itself on September 13. You’ll need to keep your eyes peeled for daily secrets and tantalizing new rumors and even play a little ‘follow the leader’ with some of your favorite community creators to discover some of the secrets Azeroth has to offer.


Rewards

To those who fortune favors, go the rewards. Here are some of the items you can add to your collections:

Update–

Roughly 24 hours ago, we implemented a fix that should prevent this bug from affecting characters who log in thereafter.

For all the characters who were affected before the fix, we’re running a fixup job at this time. Those players should see the correction over the next few hours/days.

Here you'll find a list of hotfixes that address various issues related to World of Warcraft: Dragonflight, Wrath of the Lich King Classic, Burning Crusade Classic and WoW Classic. Some of the hotfixes below take effect the moment they were implemented, while others may require scheduled realm restarts to go into effect. Please keep in mind that some issues cannot be addressed without a client-side patch update. This list will be updated as additional hotfixes are applied.

Hello.

This quest appears to be operating as it always has. It takes a very long time to reset, but it does reset. Our best advice is to do it in a group, and wait patiently for it to reset for you.

You might have a better time of it during off-hours when there are fewer other groups around.

There are gates in front of ICC and the Frozen Halls (where the three dungeons are) that cannot be opened currently.

We’ve set up an NPC at Krasus’ landing that will port you into ICC. Peletort can also be found just outside of ICC.

With the realm restarts two hours ago, all non-Hardcore Classic Era realms were returned to one layer.

Have a good Saturday!
