the latest news is not minimized
Full release most likely as beta will still be available until then
Anybody else unable to sign into the site with their bnet account?
might be related to what I just linked. Apparently there's an account credentials error?
Actually yeah, looks just like that. Even going through and telling bnet to Allow it kicks me to a strange 404 page.
http://www.wowhead.com/guides/legion/pre-patch-demon-event#rewards the link to the fel infused armor is wrong cause the items are 700
Learn about the World of Warcraft Legion Pre Patch Event in 7.0.3, featuring demon invasions, Broken Shore quests, and many rewards.
http://www.wowhead.com/items/armor/name:fel/min-level:700/max-level:700/quality:3?filter=166;7;0 correct link

http://www.wowhead.com/guides/world-events/recurring/darkmoon-faire-guide That needs some updating, there's a new Sparklepony XL that's available for purchase from Boomie
The Darkmoon Faire is in town one week out of every month with heirlooms, spooky toys, battle pets, and transmog gear to acquire!
I can't seem to connect to wowhead on my phone or computer. ._.
yeah, site seems to be jacked seems like it's a server-side script issue or something ratherthan a dns one
sites loading here fine... UK
Loading fine for me in Canada
as a heads up, we have been adding tags to the feedback forum messages. so you can see what has been fixed, what is a known issue etc
there are also a number of bugs we find/fix on our own that aren't publicly reported on the forum, for example secondary stat penalties when items scale up
What's the background track on the Invasion armor videos?
IDK if it was already reported, but there are some strange cost numbers for Dingy Iron Coins - https://www.wowhead.com/currency=980/dingy-iron-coins
Dingy Iron Coins are a rogue-only currency which are obtained when you pickpocket jewelry in Draenor and "fence" it to Griftah via Secretive Whistle.
Yeah 😃
question if an item disappears from the database, does it mean blizzard deleted it completley from ingame too? cause stuff thats not obtainable is marked so
I wouldn't have thought anything would ever be deleted, that's just way too much hassle for zero benefit from a coding point of view
the twohand str sword and onehand str mace are gone
as often mmo does still have it and people farm them cause they dont know better
The invasion weapons?
yes
no
the data existed
The beta data?
yes
That's not the same as live data
ever hears of the 36 slot bag?
Sometimes we will tag an item, if it is confusing and not on live servers, to be hidden in search results
however for those boe invasion items, they got removed at some point without our meddling
heya Perc, are all teh artifact appearances locked on the calculator now?
there are several therds about this on the feedback forum
cool, I'll go take a look 😃
BTW @manic comet Something weird is going on with Versatility on some of these Nighthold gear with Versatility:
This epic cloak of item level 875 goes in the "Back" slot. It is looted from Star Augur Etraeus.
kk
I'm doing another user data push tomorrow evening when I'm back in CA that'll hopefully correct some of that 😃
and thanks too for letting me know!
np
yea was just trying to build a rudimentory Normal Nighthold build for SimC testing and came across that
One other thing @manic comet is that I noticed that a lot of these Nighthold items are not defaulting to the normal Item Version. bonus id 1807 is just coming up as ??? version.
IE:
http://www.wowhead.com/item=139325
will link to
http://www.wowhead.com/item=139325/spontaneous-appendages&bonus=1807
but you have to either manually change the "bonus = 0" or change the item Version to Normal to get it to work correctly
This epic trinket of item level 850 goes in the "Trinket" slot. It is looted from Corruptor Tentacle.
This epic trinket of item level 850 goes in the "Trinket" slot. It is looted from Corruptor Tentacle.
right
that's something unrelated that shoudl resolve itself after tomorrow's push 😃
the other I think is some bad data we picked up
ok
thanks though; let me know if those don't correct themselves after next week!
will do
not sure who to talk to about this, but the Missing Screenshots page is still coming up saying there are no pages missing screenshots...but I can navigate to pages that don't have any, so I know it's lying
Hi, it looks to me like the class filter isn't working, at least for legion items?
http://www.wowhead.com/items/armor/leather/class:10/quality:4/slot:1?filter=166;7;0 should give leather head items monks can use, gives all of them
Items in World of Warcraft.
The results don't change if the class is priest either
When I try to upload an outfit, it just says I need more clothes when I put on basically a full outfit
Suggestion: For filters; to add a bonus ID filter field
IE:
Items in World of Warcraft.
but change the additional Filter field to "Bonus ID"
I'm getting a problem when i'm trying to see the Transmog Class Guide for shamans, while i have selected Troll Female on my Account settings ,every modelviewer has an orc male model...
any advice?
need links to better troubleshoot, but a class guide shouldn't have the images change when you view them. the transmog set database should update, based on your settings in the menu on the right-hand side
Hi, registered on the site, but dont get an email. Nothing in spam too. Problems with german mail adresses?
Sometimes yes, issues with .de. Email me at feedback@wowhead.com and I'll help you out sometime today.
Kk
the item exists ingame tested with item link
/script print('Shift click to link:', '\124cff1eff00\124Hitem:134706:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1:1723\124h[Surging Spaulders]\124h\124r')

That's outside my area of knowledge but I'm always fascinated by how many people find things like this that I never encounter myself.
F12 console 😄 Was checking something unrelated out, spotted that error message
@teal dragon Thanks, it works 😃
I'm genuinly curious and not knowledgeable about Blizzard's APIs for WoW and such but would a feature be possible where wowhead's item tooltips could show if an item appearence for any given character registered in the profile is unlocked?
"Internal Server Error - Read
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

o.O
Quality filter seems to be filtering by the item's base quality instead of it's modified quality:
http://www.wowhead.com/items/gems/frost-relic/min-level:820/max-level:820/quality:3
Items in World of Warcraft.
I got the Internal Server Error too, what's going on? 😒
i cleared cookies and cache and it worked for 1 page, then broke again
@stray torrent Bw@k3n for me as well
yeah, just got it too
Yep, seems broken.
most of the team may still be asleep or just waking up
I'm surew SAS will be on it like Sonic when he's around
Hey, are there any plans of making a wowhead bot for discord? I know it was mentioned as a possibility at one point a while back
Yeah sure and everyone will just spam !dots !wipe or !kek
how do i find items dropped by a world boss?
search the boss by name and it'll list the drops
what if i want to find all trinkets dropped by all legion world bosses?
another query is listing all fire relics with the fire mage spec selected (ie showing the actual bonus)
lol Players with 800 skill can craft and use the Elderhorn Riding Harness mount, which costs 50 Stonehide Leather, 25 Blood of Sargeras, and 10 Elderhorn Riding Harness. you need to make the item itself 10 times to make the item xD
wat
So that's a little wonky, non? XD
@plucky fractal Where did you find that broken link?
It should be https://www.wowhead.com/guide=4498/the-underlight-angler-a-step-by-step-guide-to-obtaining-legions-fishing-artifact
A Guide on how to obtain the new fishing artifact in Legion, the Underlight Angler. Also includes a preview/breakdown of all known traits.
I was having trouble trying to find the questchain for the Orderhall questlines, Dh in particular. Is that not a thing yet?
Not until Launch
re quest campaigns, you can go to quests > campaigns and search by class https://www.wowhead.com/quests/campaigns/rogue-campaign
Quests in World of Warcraft.
few more quests have to be added
filtering legendary items by class doesn't seem to be working on the site
all six invasions are up on my server
you should add a comment to the soon to be expired invasion info pages : )
@runic storm you are probably using the wrong filter (also a link helps us troubleshoot): this works fo rme https://www.wowhead.com/items/armor/quality:5?filter=152;6;0
Items in World of Warcraft.
The special blurb on this page is out of date
http://www.wowhead.com/spell=193316/roll-the-bones
so @river hound set that up as he was adding weakauras to spells, I would DM him about it and he can make a change
some of the front page URL comments on wowhead are great, only just started noticing them
"if you say a weppon is 4 hunter, kiss ur comment good bai!" 😄
@tawny blade , would it be a good idea to have a couple more channels for the wow chat on here? there are so many posts that I could spend all day just looking at #retail-wowchannel
maybe a #troll channel and a channel for each class and one for dungeons/raids and def one for transmog
Plus also why on earth would you encourage trolling
The dont need shoes
playful trolling in jest is good fun tbh
I mean call bad trolling what it really is: griefing
or maybe the other one: doggedly hanging onto a terrible opinion
I have never met a playful troll, only trolls that want to damage the community more than it already is, for their own enjoyment.
The art of trolling has kinda been
distorted (especially by intent)
for a general idea of what a playful troll is go look up some fun popular pranks that have been pulled
not the annoying [GUN PULLED] [GONE SEXUAL] ones
Its late here and i am not on my pc but look for the background of the “Terminologie“ song. Should be pretty old and a perfect example
Not Terminologie trolololol
I'm happy to consider more channels, but I don't want this server to get overly specific for conversation topics, similar to our forums right now where little is discussed in many of the subforums and only 1-2 are actually active, I'd like to avoid that. I understand a chat environment like this may behave differently then a forum would but I'm not entirely convinced our main #retail-wow channel is exceedingly active enough to warrant new ones yet. How many disagree?
i'd say not yet - maybe one for more candid discussion later on idk
I've never felt like the chat channels we already have weren't enough
do teh other sites have their own Discord?
The other ZAM sites? No, not yet. I'm pursuing one for lolking.net and I believe one is in the works for the new version of hearthhead.
I did add an #transmog though, as it's easiest to keep discussion/sharing separate for that topic. #ptr-or-spoilers will be leaving either on or shortly after the 30th. If #transmog doesn't get used much though I won't hesitate to just delete it.
obviously we should have a pet battles section kappa
Nice about the Transmog section. Maybe in the future, I might be able to have a look. But for now, I can wait. 😃
Transmog channel huh?
Doesn't look like chat history is enabled for it though @teal dragon
Fixed.
Thanks for letting me know. No, someone wanted more channels above and considering our emphasis on the site for transmogs I conceeded one additional channel but no where near as many as they originally wanted. I'll see how #transmog does before I consider any additionals.
talking about #transmog, is there a transmog class guide coming to Demon Hunters? or waiting to update them all with 110 gear?
so i noticed that when you open an Outfit page -> View in 3D -> Open in Dressing Room, it defaults the class to Warrior instead of the Outfit was saved as. So in cases where there are special class-based customizations (e.g. Demon Hunters, Death Knights) it doesn't open with the correct character appearance. Any chance this could be fixed?
can you link to an example set?
oh sorry, sure.
http://www.wowhead.com/outfit=10201/iyldris-dh-1-3
when i view in 3D, then open in dressing room, she becomes a plain pale night elf because she's a warrior. switching to demon hunter doesn't preserve the original style
Achievements for Black Rook Hold are the ones for Eye of Azshara here: http://www.wowhead.com/guide=4587/black-rook-hold-dungeon-strategy-guide
Guide to loot, trash and each boss for Normal, Heroic, and Mythic Black Rook Hold.
should be "Black Rook Moan", "You Used to Scrawl Me In Your Fel Tome", and "Adds? More Like Bads"
and the achievements listed on the darkheart thicket page are for nelth's lair
achievements should be fixed now
💯
hey guys well done thus far on site content!!
indeed, does Perc ever take time off?
thanks 😄 the content team has been working hard (sara/ketsuki) along with our guide writers too
yeah, but you never seem to take time off, although I know that feeling with the station, but you seem a ton busier than me
Weekend work as well, things like WHW
yup
we do wowhead weekly on fridays 😃
but I appreciate the nice words and that the site content is good!
hell, like I said before, you guys make my life and job a ton easier, so always up for some nice words
Oi, do you remember this post? http://www.wowhead.com/news=52661/introducing-the-wowhead-blog
You may have noticed a new tab on your friendly neighborhood database site today. Well, in celebration of Wrath of the Lich King's release, Wowhead is dressed up in some shiny new digs -- introducing the Wowhead Blog!
For I sure do =)
wow
Was a while ago now
maybe dumb question, but i mean to know that icy-veins pay the class guide writers, does wowhead does that also or are they all "personal choice"?
Official class guide writers are paid.
Thank you for the information
It looks like the model for Aluneth is broken on the site
a general feedback note - please provide links. a lot of the time wowhead staff will open up the first page that will come to mind, it works, and then we have to guess why things could possibly be broken 😦
for me https://www.wowhead.com/artifact-calc/mage/arcane/AoBgIEA loads correctly
Artifact Weapon Calculator with appearance previews for the Legion expansion of World of Warcraft.
Huh, might be something on my end then.
This is what I see https://i.gyazo.com/b6931e5dc53747453d47626461f936d5.png
Are you referring to the glow effect that looks like a box around the staff? The page and model itself are loading though, yes?
that's the best we can get it; showing modelviewer data is a bit of reverse engineering and making one weapon look super awesome with glow effects is a guessing game that breaks other effects. we went through glow effect optmizations a few months ago and this was the best we came up with
http://www.wowhead.com/guides/classes/warrior/fury/artifact This page makes 2 different references to Juggernaut, as if it were two separate abilities. This is most plain in the last few paragraphs (where it discusses what to take for non-raid content vs raid content), but even in the beginning it says to work towards juggernaut and then work towards juggernaut, and I can't help but think that they mean something else there some parts of the time.
This sentence is especially confusing. XD "Note: For those players not pursuing raid content, Juggernaut can be skipped in favor of taking Juggernaut earlier. Uncontrolled Rage is also very effective in open-world and dungeon content, and so can be taken earlier than recommended if so desired."
When did LFR loot move off the boss page and onto the Bag contains page? http://www.wowhead.com/item=95617/dividends-of-the-everlasting-spring#contains
Also, that doesn't show you what drops per boss, it's all just smashed together
how come there's no owhead.com
You mean overking.com ?
owhead?
owhead, a site to find the best headache treatments

lol
wow dad jokes
xD
Is this the place to point out a possible error with one of the site's spec guides?
http://www.wowhead.com/guides/classes/demon-hunter/havoc/overview - the "Starting zone" and "Melee DPS" headers don't link or display their tooltips properly.
Guide to rotation, talent builds, stat priorities, gems, enchants, and buffs for Havoc Demon Hunters.
Hello, if there is a dev for Wowhead online, I am experiencing an issue on one singular page of Wowhead. When navigating to http://www.wowhead.com/item=123974/reins-of-the-corrupted-dreadwing on Chrome version Version 52.0.2743.116 m, the page will hang on load. Stopping the page load will not allow any interaction with links or text on the page.
Ran into an issue when viewing my transmog outfit. At first, while it loads, it looks correct, but then you see the outfit as random robes, instead of it's intended gear. http://www.wowhead.com/outfit=33946/champion-of-the-horde
(The intended outfit: http://wow.zamimg.com/uploads/screenshots/normal/559320-champion-of-the-horde.jpg)
(The bugged outfit: http://puu.sh/qRJX2/fff04bf635.jpg)
it looks like the mop robes are saved to the outfit for some reason - what is the chest meant to be?
Hello all have a good night..
@manic elbow @lucid dock like this 😄
i have no specifics, so i apologize, but i just got redirected from http://www.wowhead.com/search?q=-Pattern%253A+%2522Drums+of+%2522 to a malicious website
might be malvertising
what region are you in?
@tawny blade There's a new Kil'jaeden page in the database that's incorrectly taken over the 'actual raid boss' flag (indicated by the skull infront of it's name) and also shows KJ's loot table.
New, imposter KJ: https://www.wowhead.com/npc=108573/kiljaeden
Actual boss: https://www.wowhead.com/npc=25315/kiljaeden
Kil'jaeden the Deceiver is a powerful eredar demon lord and is the acting leader of the Burning Legion.
I'm aware, just lower priority with some larger widespread bugs on the site
That's fine, just came across it while doing screenshots so figured I'd let you know
we're looking into a dungeon journal bug actually that may fix that...having some difficulty getting loot to show up on correct pages
so many legion changes, not surprised you're having trouble
You guys are working so hard. Thank you so much for all of it!
is just me or did the site just take a massive nosedive?
took 5 minutes to load a page lol
guessing heavy traffic atm
Site is going up and down it seems. I'd assume due to legion launch.
noticed as well
so, you guys, seeing some traffic today? 😁
Wowhead, your mobile ads are bad and you should feel bad.
btw, loving the new upgraded models on transmog pages, much clearer images of the armours
thanks!
they are super detailed, are they high dpi images?
haha, yay! I got a screenshot approved for an NPC that was only in the game for invasions xD
@plucky fractal Just because it was a temporary NPC doesn't mean screenshots for them aren't important! Thanks for the submission!
Hey. Where can I get a support response regarding my ZAM/WH account? I tried to contact you through the form on site and email without any success.
hey guys, a few items on the site have wrong required levels, just notice..
http://www.wowhead.com/item=141564/telubis-binding-of-patience
site says requires 101, I just bought iton AH on my capped 100
This epic cloth armor of item level 810 goes in the "Waist" slot.
you can buy items on any level, but can you equip it?
same info is here: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/item/141564/dungeon-normal?wowLocale=0
yup
requied 100, just equipped on my 100 mage 😃
actually just noticed some leather pieces on the AH at 810 aswell
Yeah but I'll vs stats
Ilvl
Those pieces would be great for pvp but the stats are probably suboptimal for their ilvl
And generally might suck in pve
I don't suppose I can change my zam/wowhead display name, can I?
Yes, send me an email at feedback@wowhead.com
@buoyant hill I reply to nearly all feedback emails (unless no reply is necessary). When did you attempt to contact us "without any success"?
Thanks for the reply. It was few months ago. Then I found some old email address different from this one. I'm going to write again tomorrow at the one you provided. Thank you.
Hey Sas, do you know if theres goign to be a transmog class guide for Demon Hunter?
Perc would be better to ask for that one... I would bet yes.
There's some sets here though if you want to look: https://www.wowhead.com/transmog-sets/demon-hunter
Could also just not be enough content to require a guide really, but like I said, Perc would know better... maybe Ket as well.
Cheers Sas 😃
Any way to message a member ?
In what capacity?
To talk to him about an old comment
old replied comment that is
so i can't reply to it directly
Oh, someone on the site that's not on Discord? Send the message you want to convey to the person to feedback@wowhead.com, include the persons username, and I can forward it along.
If you want that person to have the choice of repling to you then let me know what email you wish me to share with them. If they don't reply to you or me then there isn't anything else we can do.
@teal dragon the same could have been said for Monk in Pandaria, but plenty of off sets they can use, I've been using the monk guide for deciding mine so far
Any API for wowhead ?
I really don't understand the search function
Why does this returns nothing ? http://www.wowhead.com/spells/abilities/name:Ironbark
because https://www.wowhead.com/spells/specialization/name:Ironbark is the correct filter
abilities are for the non spec-specific ones. we could rename that to be clearer
core abilities...class abilities...not sure
I can't seem to Verify my Demon Hunter on the wowhead profiles, i removed the gear it told me to, logged out and updated, tried several times now 😛
looks like its down on blizz end they often take it down during ddos attacks
Profiles aren't updating because the armory isn't updating.
You can link your battle.net account to Wowhead if you want Mikino which will verify your characters if you agree to share character data with us and you won't need to worry about the whole "removing gear & updating" process.
I already have my account linked :/ how do i agree to share character data?
I'm assuming you didn't agree the first time then since your character isn't already verified.
Go here: https://www.wowhead.com/account#battlenet and click 'Remove'
Then, before you readd it, go here (for US): https://us.battle.net/account/management/authorizations.html and click 'Remove' next to Wowhead.
If you're EU adjust link accordingly... once you've done that. Go back into your settings and add the Battle.net account again, this time allowing the sharing of character data.
Theoretically this will solve the problem for you.
so : "Your World of Warcraft profile - Allow" will allow sharing of character data?
If I recall correctly yes, I don't think it has any other options then that.
thanks 😄
You then may need to delete the profile on Wowhead and then add it again via the list that shows up under the battle.net tab in your settings. I'm not sure if you'll need to or not though. Also, since Blizzard's Armory isn't really running right now it's possible that could cause problems with this process.
I hope it works for ya though. No problem. 😃
i hope so too 😃 all my other characters that i use had verified, buy my DH just said verify, bothers me so much 😛 but if it doesn't work i'll just have to wait 😛
It worked! my ocd is now satisfied, thanks 😃
Glad to hear it!
hm...did a few posts get eaten? I swear I posted some stuff but it didn't appear to go through, or was it deleted for other reasons?
Does anyone else have issues with Wowhead crashing while multiple browser tabs are open on the site?
what browser?
Chrome
Doesn't happen every time, but it seems to only occur with multiple tabs open.
hmm
well I'm not getting it but on the other hand I have 4 tabs of Wowhead up
not sure how many tabs you're running or what your specs are
or whether you're running adblock or not
I have an exception for adblock, and I don't have adds anyway because of the patron thing.
someone rank this guy up to orange please xD
and alright, that makes things a bit simpler. unlikely to be an out of mem problem or something like that.
it could be chrome itself. do you get aw snap errors periodically?
I made a sticky for https://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=255599&p=3991917 - explaining what tools are broken that we can't control due to the battle.net profiles having problems
The Battle.net character profiles are not updating for Legion yet. This affects several tools on Wowhead that rely on that information such as: Broken …
and what workaround can be done to see some tracking on wowhead
so the today in legion is nice
but
can we get it above the today in draenor one
or get rid of the draenor one 😃
tiny arrow on the top of it
I believe it is being worked on
oops forgetting its for subs only is the been able to arrange them atm
It'll be reorganized and/or Draenor will be removed soon.
cool 😃
Professions not working on your quests page?
I know they arnt showing up ingame either
ive updated FELHIDE world quests with locations, considering its not showing up on the map, ive put it under felhide the item, not under individual Felhide Gargantuan locations. http://www.wowhead.com/item=124116/felhide#comments:id=2388147
Felhide is an item that can be used by leather workers to craft various types of leather armor.
thanks for leaving the comment - we're not sure if it's an issue on our end, or on blizzard's end. we have a client upload error today that we're looking at
Anyone know why the profiler is not updating? I think that is a issue in the blizzard side, but I want to confirm that.
It is an issue on Blizzards end. The Armory is not updating past level 100.
it's a sticky on our feedback forum as well
Sorry, thank you
It's working again
Hello. I have some characters in my profiler that have been moved to another realm or deleted. I know how to delete them from the list but if I click on them their page just keeps reloading forever.. any other way I can delete them?
Just wanted to point out that at the bottom of the class page there is a visible closing "HTML tag".
Here
Guides to all class specializations, including talents, abilities, gearing, and artifacts, for Legion.
^^ Fixed ^^
😃
Thanks for reporting it.
You're welcome.
Any ETA on when the item scaling will be fixed?
we finished another segment of gametable updates today. I think we're on step 4/4 but the dev the next step is assigned to is fixing some filters first. today's item fix was to get loot appearing on the dungeon/raid pages which is now done
Thanks you guys!
great work
so mine updated, however its days old
not sure what specifically on the site you are referring to
So the new flying tracking is showing 0% for both my valarjar and nightfallen reps in the new diplomat. Also when char updates the gear shown appears 3-4 days old?
US Ydoajin Saurfang
I'm 11875/12000 Val and 9925/12000 Nightfallen
In your defence, checking my profile in armory the same (110 gear) from 3-4 days ago is showing up
Isn't that fetched by Blizz API?
Our site is going to show whatever the Blizzard armory shows, so if something is out of date there then it will likely also be on our site. If at anytime the Blizzard Armory page is more current than ours, and you've tried to 'Refresh' on our profiler, feel free to let us know.
ack, thanks Sas
Super nice, I could finally draw an updated profile out of the armory, so my splendid activities are yet again showing where I am at on WoWhead 😃
hey @teal dragon sorry to bother you sir, but I just reinstalled wow, adding the wowhead client now and although I'm linkign to wow.exe, it's saying it's not a valid world of warcraft application?
did you try wow-64?
try pointing to the folder. I'm getting that error too on a path that was working
just ignore the error and try to gather data
gonna try to gather with the errored path
I did
since I reinstalled it's asking where the .exe is, but when I point to it, it says invalid
yeah it's doing that for me with a path I previously set
I think it might be a client error that's not being thrown correctly.
rip
oh well, no dataz today
Yea I am having issues with it as well. Part of the fact I was checking was due to HIGH frame rate drops for no apparent reason. And given that Wowhead's mod is eating up 33 megs of memory (all of mine are less than 10 meg) I went to upload what I had to decrease wowhead's fingerprint. Sadly I was getting the same error
The character planner isn't as good as it used to be 😦
The legion achievements almost achieved are all completely wrong
the character planner has not been updated yet for 110
it was something we had to deprioritize when the API was broken so our edits wouldn't do anything
Ah okay - I use it a lot so looking forward to it being updated.
I open it at the same time as the game, every day.
This is probably a ridiculous question and I'm doing something obviously wrong, but I can't figure out how to find the hunter pet specialization ability "combat experience" on wowhead. When I try to search for it, it doesn't give search results, just takes me to some follower mission ability with a similar name. And it doesn't appear under under the pet specialization abilities pages (like: https://www.wowhead.com/spells/pet-specialization/ferocity), though it's a passive spell in the in-game spellbooks of each spec.
Have I lost my mind or am I doing something wrong?
yup, that's the one. how did you get there?
Is there a way to search without it going to the page of the most-likely (or however it chooses) result?
I looked it up on wowpedia and clicked the wowhead link 😛
kek
I always have issues using wowhead's search filters for some reason. I usually have better luck just using google or wowpedia
specific examples are helpful so we can narrow it down
went to spell database, searched for combat experience https://www.wowhead.com/spells/name:combat+experience
When I put it in the search box it goes straight to this instead of giving a list of results http://www.wowhead.com/mission-ability=201/combat-experience
I can't remember what searches I had problems with before at the moment
the general search result tries to be a smart search and I believe it ignores uncategorized spells since usually players aren't searching for those
something we can look into tweaking in the future
but generally searching on a specific database hub page will lead to more accuracy because there are a bunch of filters listed for better-targeted results
95% of the time when it guesses the result I want, it's right. Just these odd occasions when it's a little frustrating.
On the Order hall Missions all of the missions show item level of 760. is that a minimum ilvl to get that mission? it seems like they should vary
reorganized sidebar is nice 😃
is their someone that can explain how the growing power mage quest works im really tired and i guess thats why i dont get it lol i can not find where to turn it in to PLEASE HELP
ive been to the old d an the new d
@tranquil lance Please use #retail-wow for those kind of questions. #wowhead-feedback-support is for reporting/asking questions in reference to site functionality, features, etc. Thank you.
So I found some discrepancy with a recipe for a Item, I comented here http://www.wowhead.com/spell=185926/imbued-silkweave-bracers#comments:id=2391632 can anyone confirm this?
It is 85 in game, it shows 70 on the site because this was likely a hotfix that hasn't been patched in yet to reflect the change on the client end.
You can see all the correct amounts on the profession guides
Addressing hotfixes is something we are working towards currently, we're still working through the issue of formats changing > breaking tools around the time the previous person left
no problem, thanks
BTW, Perc and the team, as you talked about it on WW, you're all doing AMAZINGLY!
Anotehr great show guys!
Thanks for coming! 😃
thanks!
likign the Q&A atthe end each week, adds more personal touch
I had to bail
.. ill watch it thisarvo
secondary stats on items got a round of tweaks; they are no longer 2-3 points off. may require cleared cache to see (or wait 24 hours)
can confirm that some tooltips in game are bugged.
Is "Today in Draenor" still up somewhere on the site?
it's been removed because it requires people going to their garrison to populate the feature, and user data has sharply dropped
makes sense
but also tells me less people using the garrison means more profit from what you can still get form it 😄
thx @tawny blade
last few days I've noticed quite a few tooltips of recipes on the site are not in agreement with what the actual tooltip is in game (for example http://www.wowhead.com/item=127911/recipe-flask-of-the-whispered-pact - in game it is 7 Starlight Rose 10 Fjarnskaggl 10 Dreamleaf) what can we do to help you remedy the inconsistencies?
This is due to hotfixes which haven't had a client update to resolve yet. We answered a similar question a few lines up... you can see all the correct amounts on the profession guides.
TL:DR game is wrong
Hello everybody, I have a question: how can I change my wowhead / zam username? I didn't found any help on the website. ^^
send an email to feedback@wowhead.com and they will be able to assist
Thanks 😃
The "Today in Broken Isles" isn't accurate right ? There's no withered training in EU today... Maybe it's a special case ?
withered training is on an 3 days timer
its always up, but you can do it only all 3 days
So it's messing up with the website
I tought it was same for everyone, evry 3 days
but the CD starts when you complete it, right ?
no
it is the same for everyone, but you can do i only once per cycle
in 15 hours and 39 minutes the cycle ends for eu
its not that its up for 1 day every 3 days its up for straight 3 days then again for 3 days
this morning the counter said 10mins and at 0 went to 23h59m
Maybe just the formating messing the days in timer.
Would be nice to fix if someone cares ^^
withered army always shows up in game and we have no way of knowing if you personally did it or not. the timer will be lower priority to fix with other parts of the site we are working on
Cool thanks.
hey, as an update on item progress: some bonus issues have been resolved, most filters will return good results for an ilvl range (no more 10x of the same item), and source filters for dungeons/raids now work. still chasing down a bug with obliterum ilvls and searching for a particular ilvl (vs a range) being off.
sounds like legion is fun for the wowhead staff
I was searching for "Maw of Souls" and couldn't get it to appear in the zone results. I went looking in the zone database and found that it's because it's listed as a different name. I'm guessing it was called this in beta or datamined?
yep, we applied a fix for the name but I guess it didn't touch that part of the listview. we figured most people were hitting up the guide page, based on analytics
Ah okay. I did find what I was looking for by going through guide links, but typically the header search box is my primary way of quickly finding stuff.
our renaming fix should have touched all places on the site though, we'll take a look at why that didn't go through (no promises it will be asap though)
Looks like armory is a go as well!
nice
My shoulders are showing incorrect colour for xmog. The following link is my profile: http://www.wowhead.com/list=11465973/us-saurfang-ydoajin the shoulders are deep walker paulders (heroic) and should be orange
The largest World of Warcraft (WoW) information website, featuring information on classes, professions, artifacts, raids, transmog, and more.
Eeeep error
Oi dear guide writers, the Tailoring Guide for Legion is in dire need of updates. Various recipes have new vendors/drops (belt & hood, for example)
all of them need updating
the armory is not consistently loading for everyone so we're holding off on promoting the feature
some guides have changed details from beta so we are updating things as we catch them
What's Credit Bunny? is that a placeholder?
@rustic lake 'Bunny' is a term used for various invisible triggers found in World of Warcraft. They appear as invisible mobs, though it is not always the case. So it's a game mechanic rather than a specific NPC/s.
Ah okay. Thanks!
@oak isle @scenic panther I updated the handful of Rank 3 Tailoring recipes and clarfied some wording on the BS guide. what other guides needed to be updated?
I was thinking more in general like teh transmog guides, but I meant more as in it's still early days and they'll get updated soon 😃
but thank you Perc, Tailoring is my first port of call 😃
the transmog sets are a much better way to look at items
the transmog guides do have links to the legion parts of the database, and there is a demon hunter guide
but the transmog set database is much better because you can change the race/gender in the image preview, open up 3d models, see other user comments, go to item pages and see popular outfits/pairings
yup
I'll have to take another pass at the enchanting guide, Perculia. But thanks anywho for fixing the tailoring one ^^
Im trying to create account - after i clicked on confirmation email in my email im getting this error when i enter data on the page http://i.imgur.com/PKTyvNw.png
i have to enter username/password/confirmation password/ and after that this happens when i click submit...
i like the broken line escape
On the classes page, it still says there are 11 classes
@castiel0504 please email feedback@wowhead.com with the details and I'll see what I can figure out for you.
YAY! Latest news channel 😃
apparently I got auto-redirected to an ad...
apparenlty so, so glad
cool
just noticed an interesting bug in two of the MoP plate sets on teh site, the Hateshatter sets, (Bronze and White) are pulling the wrong colours for each other
http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=1519
and
http://www.wowhead.com/transmog-set=1520
hey, is there any way to modify artifact trait ranks using the tooltip javascript?
echo
We were reviewing the potions / flasks crafting material requirements, unless I read wowhead incorrectly - http://www.wowhead.com/spell=188330/potion-of-the-old-war (example) it shows 1, 2, 2. But wowdb shows. http://www.wowdb.com/spells/188328-potion-of-the-old-war shows 2, 4, 4. The guide - http://www.wowhead.com/guides/legion-alchemy is correct but the database appear is confusing. Am I missing something?
All I know is the raid team miscalculated the potion / flask requirements and the rate the materials are gathered makes crafting for a team almost insane.
BS stuff is also wrong
this has been stated a few times; please read the guides
the changes were made via hotfix and we are working on a tool to process hotfixes. alternatively, the PTR site shows the correct values
which the guides should now be linking to as of yesterday
👍🏻
Active World Quests: Europe page for Highmountain currently showing a duplicate icon for the same fishing world quest, Work Order: Highmountain Salmon.
One correctly at Thunder Totem and the other N of Trueshot Lodge by the river with no NPC around. Hand in to Ransa Greyfeather at Thunder Totem is the correct one from checking.
http://i.imgur.com/twxdknN.png
they're based on user data so maybe something got messed up with restarts this morning
OK. May have been that the player was fishing there or something. Hope it helps anyhow.
how do i view my lists?
user menu > my profiles
although battle.net API is inconsistent so not sure if you'll see everything. lists you make yourself are saved as Custom lists
yeah they really need to get that fixed
Link missing on the list of criteria for Fishing 'Round the Isles achievement for Huge Mossgill Perch.
http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=10598/fishing-round-the-isles
Link for this quest is (highest id number or the two)
http://www.wowhead.com/quest=41613/huge-mossgill-perch
something is bugged on blizzard's end for that one:
criteria is 100% pulled from blizzard's own data
OK, you have the page on the site at least. The quest is currently bugged as it doesn't credit for the achievement, so probably something to do with it.
http://www.wowhead.com/achievement=11124/good-suramaritan got a broken link to "A Change of Seasons" quest doesn't seem to be in the DB but i swear i've seen people get this achieve, any ideas?
it was not added because nobody did it on the beta or hit exalted in the past few weeks. we are not processing data over the weekend but will process more data next week
cos you need some damn sleep sometime huh?
feed
oooops
ah i cant ctrl + f chat 😦
Someone told me to send email on certain email, im having problems signing up on wowhead
getting this error - http://i.imgur.com/enutASO.png - but when i check zam site it says that "user doesnt exist" 😛
if you send an email to feedback@wowhead.com sas can help you out
@rugged hawk I've replied to your email. 😃
Thanks a lot! Honestly i've forgot about that site 😮 , Your network is realllly big 😮
so has blizzard colluded with wowhead about the Hungering Orbs? curious as there is no guide for finding them all.
its in the comment of kosumoth the hungering
lol, thats not exactly a proper guide though is it?
why not go write it yourself?
it is a proper guide, there is a step by step guide
yeah but he wants a written guide page Spaten, which I understand, but if there was one written for everything liek this, wowheads database would be massive
the secretfinding channel who discovered the mount has linked wowhead comments on their FAQ channel. the most info you will find is on the wowhead mount page
if they are unclear about something they would prefer to be vague as they keep testing the details
Is there a way to sync patron stsus to discord, I didn't see anything in the sub page (I could have missed it)
you have to poke enough mods(maybe admins)
nah, just poke Sas
@smoky sparrow Instructions for that are in #welcome-rules
ah, so it is, I figured it'd be something simple lol Thanks!
see? poke sas, and things happen
lol, I just hate to be a bother when they have a lot going on
It would be possible to automate with a discord bot, but there's none setup here that I know of.
would need contact to the wowhead database
And be provided correct information, like username, etc...
Or patreon API
More work than is necessary for something I can easily do manually.
If the devs were willing, connect discord and patreon accounts on the site. Then the bot queries an API endpoint on the site to check a user for patreon status. But yea, quite a bit of work.
There's just way more important things for them to focus on. Perhaps someday...
For now, me doing it manually in < 24 hours after PM will have to do. 😄
tehre is a bot that will do it from the twitch channel
discord function, not bot
actually theres a couple of bots that would do it automaticlaly
but integration subscriber twitch -> discord role is a discord option
That is already set up.
You can see WutangT on the Member List as an example.
That's only possible though because Discord allows you to connect your account to Twitch.
really usefully, Patreon just set up a bot aswell to give discord rewards, super handy 😃
Is there a way to make the database spit out a list of all the relics that enhance a specific artifact weapon trait? I've played with both the database and item finder and I can't seem to get the result I'm looking for. For example, I'm a feral druid and my best artifact trait to enhance is Razor Fangs (rip dmg), so I'm looking to get a list of all of the Frost, Blood, and Life relics that enhance Razor Fangs.
your dmg died?
example, gathering storms (enhancement trait)http://www.wowhead.com/spell=198299/gathering-storms
Each target hit by Crash Lightning increases damage dealt by your next Stormstrike within 12 sec by 2%.
http://www.wowhead.com/spell=210570/razor-fangs thats for you
Ah fuck - that was really simple wasn't it. I shoulda just gone to Razor Fangs spell page
GG me
Thanks mate

Can we pin some messages, like the ones regarding crafting requirements being mistaken on non PTR site?
Please read the profession guides (https://www.wowhead.com/guides/professions) or visit the PTR pages for up-to-date reagents on Alchemy items and high-end crafted armor.
should have been fixed today but the update only seemed to work on some ranks but not others...hopefully tomorrow
thanks @tawny blade
Some ad being shown on Wowhead is making the site very hard to access. It is auto-redirecting to other websites and, in some cases, triggering a download that is presumably malware (a file that has the name "FlashPlayer.dmg" on Mac). I don’t use adblocker software because I want to support the site, but this problem is making it a choice between adblocking and not being able to access the site at all 😦
Oh, and I'm in the latest Firefox, and Flash is not installed on my system.
Hi Trest. This is likely a bad advertisement that is causing the problem. It's not our intention for anyone to experience these type of ads. Detailed instructions about how/why this happens and how you can help us rid the site of them can be found here: https://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=142&p=3370978
(Optional) Also, if you wish, you could become a Wowhead Patron for $29.99/year (or you can do monthly) which hides all ads plus other benefits while still supporting us.
I'm sorry you were exposed to a bad ad, but I hope the thread I mentioned will make it clear how to help in the future. Thank you!
TLDR version: Use the feedback link on the top right of any page of the site and select "Bad Advertisement". _____________________________________…
I’ve used the bad-ad reporting before. But the problem with this current bad-ad is that it is redirecting me off the site when I try to load wowhead.
This is true.. and obviously frustrating and not something we want. However, if you go back (if possible) to the previous page on Wowhead you had loaded you can still click the button and the system will potentially provide ad data about the one that caused the problem in the first place.
That can be hard if the ad is redirecting repeatedly, but usually if you right click the back button you can see a list and move back 5x or 10x, etc.
I'll give that a try. may result in some false positives as I can't be sure which of the various ads on the page are causing the problem.
That's fine and understandable. The tool provides all the data about all the ads you've recently been exposed to. See, doing it this way we get data for 10 ads and can figure out which one is the problem... as opposed to trying to find the problem out of millions of ads from around the world.
Or, it is possible you/we don't catch it in the report, but if several people report the same problem then we can, "triangulate (for lack of a better word)" the culprit.
A further data point: this time it redirected me to a site called “mac-app.store-secured.online” which is made to look as if it's an official Apple site (and presumably encouraging people to download and install something from the site that will be malware). I'll try the "go back" in the browser now and see if i can report the ads on the page…
Yeah, I see a Microsoft one occasionally, insisting that if I don't call them they'll "block my access to the network" or some such other garbage.
That ad seems to be prevealent on a few sites I visit... :\ unfortunately.
Looks like I managed to do the "Report ad" on all the ads on the page. Hopefully that helps you identify the culprit(s) 😃 Thanks for the help!
Are you still on the same page?
yes, it's still open in my browser
Can you click 'Feedback' and choose 'Bad Advertisement' from the dropdown menu and just submit that as well?
Okee doke. doing that now
In the future, do this first if possible, I think we get more data from the feedback option -> Bad Ad, then we get with the Report ad gray text option.
Plus you don't have to go around and click all those individual buttons this way. 😃
Thanks for all the help — I hope the reports are useful.
No, thank you! I'm sorry you experienced the bad ad at all. I long for a day when they're no longer a reality.
I can confirm your report was received. Thank you.
It would be nice if browsers could implement some sort of "not trusted content" flag on embeded objects like ads. There is the "rel="nofollow"" attribute for links, so it is technically feasible. Items flagged that way could have their javascript constrained/sandboxed to help block things like CSRF, auto-play, redirects, etc.
That goes well over my head... sadly.
@flat flame That would not make ad companies happy
Ads just suck. I always advocate that adblock is bad but when I attempt to optimize our site at work the biggest roadblock is always ads
And we serve like 11 on each page, which piles on always 10 seconds of load time. And then people wonder why they block them 🙄
agreed, ads are our bugbear too
i heard from a cooperation between google and addblock about "nice adds" i look for the link
Adblock Plus introduces the Acceptable Ads initiative: Support websites that rely on advertising but choose to do it in a non-intrusive way.
yeah
I think ads should be better, but I don't think a company like AdBlock should be the authority on what is good and bad.
Especially as some ad block companies block ads, and then run their own in place
Kind of cheeky
they aren't
They are trying to be though
they put a guideline down voted on by the community
those are community driven suggestions put together as a manifesto
So in essence they are trying to be an authority on what is and what is not a good ad
I mean, sure it's better then nothing, but their guidelines are not really automated.
You have to apply to be unblocked by the,
no you don't
if you follow those guidelines, you are unblocked by default unless the USER chooses Strict blocking
Negative
It states on the page
You have to apply
How can I get my website whitelisted?
The process of getting your ads whitelisted takes about 10 working days once the ads adhere to the Acceptable Ads criteria:
If your website has ads that comply with the Acceptable Ads criteria, simply fill out this form.
Someone from Eyeo, the company behind Adblock Plus, will contact you to determine the exact ads, and check whether they comply with our criteria.
After you have made any necessary changes, both sides sign an agreement.
We submit the whitelisting proposal in the forum and the ads are whitelisted at the same time. The topic will stay open in order for the community to declare concerns if or when the candidate does not meet the requirements.
like i have strict blocking set on my own website, becuase if I click on my own ads, google will kill my adsense account
thats to be whitelisted, totally different
We run acceptable ads and they are completely blocked if you visit the page
but i also think here is completely the wrong place to be discussing it
I suppose the point I'm trying to make is that when an advert is sourced from an ad exchange you typically don't know what will be served and when, as the placement is auctioned off to the highest bidder. It's not really something you can control, and if your business relys on ad revenue to stay afloat and you lack in numbers due to ad block, it can put you in a difficult position. I still think ads suck though, but an acceptable ad program really doesn't help anyone as only large sites with big sponsorships can benefit from that
Ad impressions drive sponsorships, and ad block puts you off to a bad start.
personally, I would rather one of my listeners block ads on my site, and donate to our patreon, cos from a user retention perspective, that person is far more likely to stick around
There's responsibility on the company to serve good ads, along with the exchange to make good ads. But there's also the users responsibility of actually knowing when to whitelist a site otherwise their favourite site will struggle to stay afloat. It's something that will collapse soon, but all sides of the table don't seem to see the problem
Full disclosure, I work for a news website. I'm their lead developer
We do not have a patron
And we need a vast amount of money to keep our business intact
So we have to resort to paywalling our content
We are, which is bad for the user because they are getting free content.
Because if you ad block a news site, they will have to start charging for their content.
"Turn off adblock or you can't read our content" No thanks, I'll go else where
That will become a very common trend in the next few years, I promise you that
Are you a news site that employs thousands of people?
We're talking full on daily news production here
It costs money to run
The media industry will collapse soon because of it
Hell, I donate to wowhead because they make my life writing articles a ton easier
I'm a 30 year journalist thanks
Then you should be sympathetic to this no?
nope
You understand that this is happening
quite the opposite
That's a shame then
and as a company owner, I also see where it's going wrong
cos if you have good open content and people enjoy it, they will pay for it
in fact, I would remove ads tomorrow if I could
Look at the Washington Post
Publication of record for the US
Fantastic journalism
They lose a shit load of money
so go on, what publication do you work for?
Why is that relevent to the conversation?
and this relaly should be in #no-wow-discussion btw
it's relevant cos you're standing by how your company works
I'm standing by how an industry works
Media websites serve ads to make money
That's why news has been free for so long
that's why you're seeing print papers no longer being sold worldwide because those ad spaces are not as valueable anymore
Ad block causes the same effect
If ads are not seen, you will not be able to sell them
and thanks to them IMHO 😃
Except journalisms do important work
especially for local goverment
So what then if their content is not being seen?
Or would you prefer their journalism gets sponsored by ads
Sadly nobody has come up with a better solution that helps pays the bills. Anyway I'm going back to work. John Oliver did a good piece on this that wraps up my entire feeling on this subject, worth the watch
wow... just wow...
Please take this to off-topic. fwiw, Jimo raises a lot of good points which are discussed amidst the Wowhead team as well
Yep
awesome, so slacking off teh last hour of my show as normal then 😄
I've removed the pinned note about profession reagents because they should now be fixed 😃
The missing fishing world quest Queen Queenfish is currently up on EU realms. I posted details of the NPC and quest on the NPC page for info:
http://www.wowhead.com/npc=104258/queen-queenfish#comments:id=2412722
if a quest hasn't been seen before on live servers then we need to process user data to add it to the site. it should be up sometime next week
Cool. I uploaded the data earlier.
Cant wait to thank you guys one on one at BC! Again great work with the content thus far and you can hold me to 1 round of drinks on me at the wowhead partay on the 3rd!
thanks!
Evening all, quite excited for the WH party especially as it'll be my first Blizzcon as well. Thanks for running such a brilliant site.
Thanks Balztrap. See you there! 😃
Are there any plans to put an Emerald Nightmare drop down menu in the main bar of the site similar to Hellfire Citadel, would be pretty cool for quick boss guide access? 😃
we may be adding one - we've found that the horizontal row of icons has generated a lot more clicks than dropdown menus so we may be rethinking how we do menus in general though 😃
So i can't set an enchantment for https://ptr.wowhead.com/item=134292/nightborne-researchers-phial&bonus=3432&spec=258
This blue trinket of item level 805 goes in the "Trinket" slot.
you cant enchant trinkets?
it's one of those items that rolls with a random secondary stat
"random enchantment"
it is reflecting the bonus stat options on http://us.battle.net/wow/en/item/134292/dungeon-level-up-1?wowLocale=0
so you could select the haste option https://www.wowhead.com/item=134292/nightborne-researchers-phial&bonus=604:1826
This blue trinket of item level 805 goes in the "Trinket" slot.
is there already some kind of deal for mythic raid guides on wowhead?
not sure what you mean by deal but the post on the front page links to mythic-specific tips and abilities
for wod there were strategy guides from method(?) and also the mythic part in the normal guides
the mythic parts are in all the normal guides currently. we are working out how exactly method wants to do guides this time - something like a mythic end boss is a ton of work to do in depth for a tiny % of the population that sees it. but we are still working together, for example we sponsored their pvp tournament this weekend
thanks for the information
Are they coming from Method or Serenity which is mostly old Method?
found a bug btw
when customizing this item to have haste, it's showing an incorrect amount
This blue trinket of item level 805 goes in the "Trinket" slot.
should be 882 haste
i also can't click the 3.3% @ 100 to change it to 110
looks like we need to rescale something for the secondary stats - we grabbed all of them from battle.net so that's probably where it went wrong
hmm
do you know if wowdb grabs it the same way?
their scales are matching in game tooltips (found out via simc) and the bonus_id matches as well
however trying to make an item a certain ilvl on wowdb is stupidly difficult
I don't see the randomized stats for that page for them
sec
3432 = 835 ilvl, 604 = haste rolled
604 i pulled from wowhead after selecting the stat that it rolled with
ah, so you have to add it on your own
in wowdb? yes
You guys tend to put an extra <br> tag in Combustion patch notes. I bet you're using a template with that error inside. 😃
Oh 😃
how long after an upload should it show on the reputation page?
Not showing currently I think.
So I was using the random page feature a ton last night to get some drawing prompts...got a lot of duplicates (especially with classes/races...i got human 4 times, dwarf and padaren a couple times, never saw a few of them at all), and got pet abilities but never once a pet. Are there sections the random page feature thing doesn't pull from? Also, is there something I can do to get a random page from a specific section?
seems it's favoring pulling a lot of NEW stuff too. like maybe it's not 100% random of all the pages?
oh also never once got a monster or critter page...closest i got was hunter pet families
Pretty sure it's just entirely random. I don't think anyone has touched that tool in... well, a long time.
hmm alright. just seems REALLY unlikely that in thousands and thousands of pages I'd be getting duplicates so often
so possible something's not quite right 😃 anyway obviously not a big deal
@humble delta secondary stats for random bonuses should be fixed now. they needed dynamic scaling applied to them. the person who handled this for WoD is no longer with the site so we're redoing all the processes from scratch and finding steps that aren't documented
we have also fixed a bug where the total artifact cost in the center of the calc was preventing people from clicking on nearby traits
awesome thank you~
The fishing world quests on the Active World Quests: Europe are around a day out currently. On the site now it is indicating 'Into the Whirlpool' as 1 day 12 hours but in-game it is 8 hours. I noticed something similar yesterday also.
http://i.imgur.com/QZSHtOM.png
Generally these fishing quests are 12 hour duration.
Other world quests usually show a few hours behind the realm times but probably the difference between CEST and UTC but this is around 24 hours out.
weird because on https://www.wowhead.com/quest=41271/into-the-whirlpool it shows 9 hours (which can be explained by cest/utc)
I've passed it along to the devs
OK, thanks for the info and quick action.
these don't sound right 😦 http://www.wowhead.com/npc=108867/millificent-manastorm#sounds

hey guys, would it be possible, on say a weapon or armour piece info page, having a static image like on a tier set/traonsmog page?
something we can consider later but you can see all of the static images when you do an item search
there is the regular view and then a 'gallery' tab which is the modelviewer view
Also, the havoc demon hunter calc now has the havoc-specific abilities under the 'spec' tab. there was some weirdness on blizzard's end properly picking up their spec since they were quest rewards https://www.wowhead.com/talent-calc/demon-hunter/havoc
Talent Calculator for the Legion expansion of World of Warcraft.
Fixed the Maw of Souls zone page showing up as Helmouth Cliffs in search results
I don't what it is but some times when Im using the site and looking up something. The page loads to one of those pages in which I can't leave unless I click something in the dialog window that also comes up. So I end up having to close the window via Task Manager. Any idea what's cuasinng that? Hopefully it's nothing on my computer doing it. But then again it's not doing on other sites I went to.
No, it's likely a bad advertisement. Sorry about that! Anything redirecting off our site isn't what we want and I apologize that it happened. We have a Bad Ad thread here: https://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=142&p=3370978 that you can see instructions on how to report them to us in the future.
TLDR version: Use the feedback link on the top right of any page of the site and select "Bad Advertisement". _____________________________________…
Ok thanks. Think this is either the 2nd or 3rd time this month it happened.
Sas thanks for fixing the ads that redirected finns to gambling and adult sites. :)
I'd love to take credit for any ad improvements but that would be entirely the ad team and the ad networks. We have very little control over them, good or bad. But thank you, I'm glad it's improving at least.
something our ad team does is browse other sites to see the ad complaints and if we can adjust anything before it hits wowhead
other forums, unrelated games etc that wow players may not be frequenting
you have persons who just browse other websites to see the adds?
yes, we have a staff member who analyzes the meta data from advertising reports to present the ad companies with data on what they should shut down
that sounds more complex now, i liked the "they are just browsing and looking at adds"
there's a huge misconception that the wowhead content team chooses the advertisements and has control over adding/removing them
so I am trying to be as specific as possible to show that we have a specialized person helping out but even they can't actually remove the ads 😃
and it's bad for sites like wowhead, cos this is why adblock is so popular
it's bad across the internet. that's why sites like the new york times have paywalls
yup, glad you don't
but hey, I've said my piece to someone else on here before, ads are generally bad, but for some, a nessicity
That's why adblock is now "selling" good ads and blocking the awful ones
so just got https://www.wowhead.com/item=140993/gloves-of-murmured-promises&bonus=3443#same-model-as in game
This epic cloth armor of item level 875 goes in the "Hands" slot.
actually drops off trash in EN
hm wowhead keeps redirecting me to www.advancedpctools.com
Perhaps that is an example of a 'bad' ad as discussed above?
yup
I had an issue with a redirect and slow loading ad on wowhead a long time ago :(
Random question with the ads. In order to benefit the site the most, is it better for me to just look at the ad or should I click stuff too?
Do they make more on that?
Sorry for the odd question, I just got hit with three Discover card ads and the weird thing is I already have one >.>
I'm pretty sure the money per person is more with premium than watching/clicking ads (And I think some companys bans you if they detect patrons on clicks)
Neato! I'll do that then. I'm never sure what ad revenue model sites are using nowadays. I feel bad for this ad. I like it but it's not relevant to me cuz I already got it. Like seeing stupid ads on google for "buy this" when I already bought it.
mhm
That's why I adblock my life, or do premium at the sites I use more and I can afford
Also the websites looks awful with ads

This text is inside the code block for the Focus Kick macro. That's all.

I fixed this.
FYI: you don't need to ping Perc for this kind of thing, just post here in general next time... we watch this but unless it's urgent there isn't any need to grab her direct attention.
ok. Sorry I don't know who else to contact with things like that. 😅
No problem... just posting it here in general (not specifically @ anyone) is fine. 😃

There's posters who do nothing but post "video guides" with the same stupid comment in each post. They get downvoted, of course and I report them whe…
hey guys, just found the Demon hunter transmog guide (http://www.wowhead.com/guides/all-transmog-sets-for-demon-hunters), any chance it can be added to the pull down transmog menu please? super useful those guides
I've noticed some feautres of the site that previously (pre-Legion) worked and no longer do. Certain search criteria not returning items they should/showing items that should be filtered, the values in the cost column of search results not matching the cost on item pages, garrison building pages missing information/no longer working, etc. Are you aware of the issues or would you like me to provide more information to help identify them?
I had problems with some filters as well
we are aware of an issue with searching for a specific ilvl (ranges should be fine). there were some issues in the pre-patch with filters which should be fixed now. if you can send more information to feedback@wowhead.com that would be great
Will do. Thanks Perculia
hey guys, the armour set pages, "Trasmogged with" tab is only showing artifacts and nothing else, is this intended?
Need an exmaple
ok so to clarify - you said it showed artifacts and nothing else but I see capes, tabards, and shirts
oh sorry, yeah I meant weapon wise
I should have worded that better, getting tired adn probably should call it a night 😃
so what are you saying is missing from the tab?
technically nothings missing, but some, like the one I linked only showing artifacts as ideas, tis a bit meh,
surely would be better just to have non-artifact transmogs?
just a thought for transmog hunters trying to disguise the artifacts 😃
we're reflecting what people transmog to the most
right now that happens to be artifacts for that gear
that makes sense 😃
if in 6 months people stop using it, then our armory scrapes will reflect whatever top 4 weapons are used instead
oh is that how it pulls it? thats cool
so technically it is intended as it is, thats cool, thank you Perc 😃
and thanks to you and the team as always 😃
The layout of that page (at least for me) is showing a big empty space in the middle of the weapons. It seems like each different weapon type (two hand, one hand, shield) starts a new row so if there is only one or two of that type it leaves blank space. Is that the reason and is it intended?
That is the reason. Intended? I guess yeah, I mean, it would be nice if it was intuitive and compressed into a single row when space was available but it's not overly burdensome.
Fair enough. It was something I hadn't noticed before and since it was being talked about I thought I ask. Thanks Sas
Am constantly getting this ad taking over the wowhead page. It replaces the page completely and wil not allow to go back to the wowhead page. http://lp.loa2.com/lp/light/aishah?aid=1241&aip=32891.12607&utm_source=media&utm_medium=display&utm_content=pl&utm_campaign=loa2

This one too. What is up with these ads, why are they allowed to completely replace the page you are reading. It is not pop up it is take over 😦
I have the page open I want to read and at some time these ads simply replace the page on wowhead I am reading
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
I have just seen another background tab become one of those adds
What you're describing is caused by a bad advertisement. The content team at Wowhead has no control over the ads displayed. There is a forum thread that details how you can help our ad team track these malicious advertisements so they can attempt to have them blocked/removed by the ad networks. http://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=142&p=3370978
I'm sorry you're seeing them at all though... it's definitely not something we enjoy our community experiencing.
TLDR version: Use the feedback link on the top right of any page of the site and select "Bad Advertisement". _____________________________________…
The persil ad is not even an ad, it is a con site to get you to spend money on SMS to take part in their research ffs
Yes, but an ad is what caused you to be on that site in the first place.
No the add doesnt send me to that site. I am simply reading a wowhead page, any page and then at any given moment the whole page is hijacked/replaced by another page, not in a new tab, it completely replaces it in the same tab. It is not because I click on anything it just happens as I read or have tab open in background. In one instance I opened 5 wowhead links about legendary items in a background tab and every page opened not as the link but as the League of Angels crap.
Thanks for the info though I will see what I can do to pass the info on to those who may be able to do something 😦
Unfortunately an ad has the capability of redirecting the page you're looking at, even without your interaction, to a page of their choosing. An advertisement behaving in that manner is malicious and not wanted on the site. I just want to make sure you understand that it IS an ad doing it and not something you're doing or that our content team is responsible for. Similar to how spammers come into forums to spread their filth some individuals/companies trick ad agencies into believing they're a legit company following the rules, and as soon as they gain their trust they change their ads to do nefarious things like redirect you to their fear inducing site to phish for personal information. Due to the vast amount of ads out there and the fact that our site services nearly the entire world (requiring a large number of ad networks) it's difficult to track down the specific ad causing the problem.
Our ad team is doing what they can with bad ad reports by users and proactively trying to reduce the occurrances of bad ads on the site by working with our ad brokers and networks to lessen the impact these nefarious entities have on our sites. We apologize to anyone who experiences these ads and appreciate any assistance anyone can provide (via the instructions in the above link) to track them down.
I have taken your advice and reported through the bad ad section. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Thank you for doing that Zegrze and for being patient about the situation. We appreciate your support!
Well thanks to you guys for being so quick with the answers and help. Have a good night 😃
So I went to use the artifact calulator and couldn't find the "Load Character" button. But as I continue to look around. I found it on top of an AD. Talk about placement. 😃
It's a bit weird, you can use the "large" button tho
I did.
I have no ad with the large
Looking into it @urban creek - Thank you for mentioning it.
The fishing world quest 'Queen Queenfish' was up a couple of weeks ago but the quest is still not added yet to the site. The details on on the NPC page for info. I thought that the missing quests would get added from the uploaded data but maybe not;
http://www.wowhead.com/npc=104258/queen-queenfish#comments
Also the Huge Mossgil Perch quest is still not linking correctly from the 'Fishing 'Round the Isles' achievement page list. It should point to this quest page:
http://www.wowhead.com/quest=41612/huge-mossgill-perch
There is another duplicate quest page but this is the higher id number.
Similar story for the 'Slippery Stormrays' quest which was up 10 days ago and no page yet. Details on the object page for info:
http://www.wowhead.com/npc=104321/slippery-stormray-school
Slippery Stormray School is a level NPC. The location of this NPC is unknown.
fixed the position of 'load character' on the artifact calc
😄
character planner should now return results for level 110 charcters too (including guide updates)
https://www.wowhead.com/item=128709/darkmoon-deck-hellfire is showing incorrect values
7/7 is 699.8 - 1399.6
tooltip in game is correcet (matches on character sheet)
Can you PM it to me please instead? Would prefer to keep your email out of a public channel.
ohh sorry i thought i did that
Oh, if you did I just haven't gotten to it yet, not at home.
still learning how to use this thing lol
Click my name and send a message that way.
Fishing Artifact costs should be displaying corectly now.
Thanks!
@teal dragon Thanks for fixing the Underlight Angler artifact costs. Seems fine now.
The artifact trait tooltips still show 'Requires Paladin' still on all of them both in the Calculator and separate pages, though it hasn't/ doesn't in Live. Guess it's some flagging issue.
That's an unrelated issue that they're aware of but don't have a fix for at the present time. It's on the list though. 😃
Is the quest Fit for an Elven Queen not on the site or am I just blind?
I just found the quest item at 61.59 in the midnight court if you need details for the quest?
I'ts the quest chain that rewards the crown Jewls of Suramar

Getting this when going to Hearthhead (not entirely related, but it's pretty easy to get to hearthhead from wowhead)
also the site update makes the forums on the hearthhead side inaccessible. is that intended?

also when you load a character via the artfact calculator, the correct ilvls for the relics are now pulled in
Awesome job, thanks you very much
thanks for the question answering guys
@everyone Looking to get some feedback on these revamped navigation menus. we've noticed people have been clicking a ton on the makeshift announcement, and pretty much ignore the navigation bar. In addition the dropdown menus were taking up too much vertical space. So thoughts if this works better.
The top row has core parts of the site (eg news, database), and the second row has relevant content. eg right now class guides, emerald nightmare, mythic+
That looks much, much better to me.
This isn't live yet but will likely be live next week (at which point the large announcement bar will go away)
Looks great
I agree that looks a lot better
I agree that making it less verticle makes it easier to look at for what you want
That looks nice Perc
oooooo I love the class icon header bar. My eyes move right to it. Very swank.
Big 👍 over here.
thanks!
Looks cleaner to me
Lovely! Thanks you, It wasn't ok the old one because I always lost my cursor..
Yeah that looks good
this is going to work much better for devices with a lower resolution
Agreed, I would prefer the new dropdown menus to the current ones, hate having to scroll and sometimes the menus disappear for me due to having to scroll
yep. it's super annoying on my laptop with a smaller screen
that's definitely happened to me before
I maybe remote into my home desktop a lot from work to surf the site and yeah.... it is rough navigating down at times 😃
This looks really good. Much easier on the eyes. Will the sub menus recieve the same treatment? Or will they still occupy the same vertical real estate as before?
need to check on monday
most of the submenus are not too bad, but there are a few long ones like quests
Yeah and some of the upper level instance menus. But otherwise the submenus are fairly simplified.
I like the changes as shown. Good work all.
they look good Perc
I think those changes are great! They look really easy to navigate.
Looks really good. 😃
Does wowhead do A/B testing?
in this case, we determined we had to revamp navigation by comparing user behavior with and without the large announcement bar
❤ a/b testing. love the changes too!
yeah, looks good

Is there a Hang on Battle.net registration at the Wowhead site??? Friend Signed up via Battle.net over an hour ago and has yet to recieve E-mail in order to verify account (???)
Have them email me at feedback@wowhead.com.

My bet would be they have a @comcast, @aol, or some other similar domain we have issues with occasionally. Easily fixed when they email me 😃
Was going through the http://www.wowhead.com/guides/classes/hunter/marksmanship/rotation page, noticed that spell link for Exhilaration is incorrect as we get a different spell with same name (http://www.wowhead.com/spell=109304). could you please update? Its listed under "Offensive and Defensive Cooldowns:"
Rotation priority guide for any situation for Marksmanship Hunters. Updated for Legion. Also learn about their cooldowns and utility abilities.
From what I remember, we had the 50% heal during prepatch and spell was changed to 30% when legion hit.
Hey just wondering but would it be possible to implement spell model viewers paired up to each spell in game? Similar to how each NPC displays their respective model. For instance, the animation for Power Word Shield or something?
Is there a way to change the default gender for the model viewer in the wardrobe? I already have it set to what I want in my user settings but it's still showing just the male human.
I believe so, I can try to find it quick
Should be one of the first options under Preferences
Thanks for the post on LFR Xavius and Halloween. I've noticed that the loot listed for LFR Xavius is 850+ (which is normal mode loot), is it intended?
http://www.wowhead.com/news=256947/new-content-week-of-10-18-hallows-end-battleground-event-lfr-xavius-open-more-ba
The week of October 18th is a busy one for Warcraft, with not only Hallow's End starting but also LFR Xavius opening.
@heavy ember It must be a mistake, as the in-game journal lists Xavius' loot at 835 for LFR
RIght above the table it says "Loot starts off at ilvl 835 but can proc Warforged or Titanforged up to ilvl 895."
But regardless I went ahead and changed the table tooltip items to show 835+ @heavy ember
I have changed my preferences in my user settings to have the model viewer as Female Blood Elf (which is the toon I main), but it still shows a human male in the wardrobe.
mine shows male Dreanie, which is my main
I must be doing something wrong somewhere. I have had my profile of my main loaded and have successfully used it many times over to farm for things. Yet this seems to be my only issue I've ever had with this site.
It's verified and everything.
d you have an extra grafic designer for the wowhead icons?
any site developers on here?
Just ask your question and they will answer you asap
had a question about OpenDNS and being able to whitelist wowhead and what is blocking it
New navigation menu is now live! Since the first preview, we added a transmog dropdown, Blue Tracker dropdown, Artifact Calculator to the classes dropdown, and put some submenus on multiple columns based on feedback.
anyone know what this badass is wearing?
Ritssyn Flamescowl is a level 110 NPC. This NPC can be found in Dreadscar Rift.
the tab wasn't there when I looked through
usually someone mentions in the comments too
damn, it's a mage set 😦
Yep
It's a shame that set isn't available anymore, it's so pretty :(
is itnot?
There's a comment on that transmog page that says it's no longer available, but maybe they added it back in somewhere?
It looks like this dude sells them, or at least stuff with the same models, for Marks of Honor http://www.wowhead.com/npc=75688/roo-desvin#sells
yo the top bar thing with the class icons + instancees is VERY NICE!!!!!!
i love it ty guys so much 😃
Glad you love it! 😃
When I load my wowhead client it's giving me an update error. Tried re-installing fresh off the website, still same error. When I click "ok" on the error dialogue it closes the app. Opening it and canceling the update closes the app. So... stuck. Help?
@covert osprey I wasn't able to replicate that issue. Are you running it as administrator? Is it still happening?
@teal dragon weird, that fixed it, running it as admin. I've been using the client for... forever and never had to specify that before
Not suree what changed
I've always ran mine as such, perhaps a change that was recently made necessitated it or something else was blocking the process. Sorry about that though!
Np, thanks for the fix. All good now!
@teal dragon when you have a mo, under the Transmog pull down list, under class guides, can you add the demon hunter one?
That would require a dev, the content team doesn't have the ability to directly edit those menus. I'll make a ticket for them to look into it on Monday.
ahh, sorry matey
no reason to be sorry 😃 Hopefully they'll have sometime but with 7.1 it may be a bit before they get around to adding it.
the demon hunter guide looks like its mostly copy/pasted from teh Monk guide, but nothign wrong wtih that
they're most similar to monks in that they don't have many old tier sets. but it's much better to use wowhead.com/transmog-sets to have more flexiblity with the 3d modelviewer, suggested transmog pairing sand more
aye, the guides useful for seeing at a glance where things are from though 😃
trying to open wowhead on my phone I am getting redirected to the app store - possibly from one of the ads ...
How do I change the ilvl of a relic in the artifact weapon calculator?
right now we are still implementing ilvl support but you can import via 'load character' to get your character's exact ilvl
unfortunately there is no other way to change it right now
Ah I was trying to get different simcraft links to compare relics before replacing one
I'll see if I can find a syntax guide to the format. Thanks!

these sounds dont seem to be the demon hunter in VoW http://www.wowhead.com/npc=103587/tirathon-saltheril#sounds
Tirathon Saltheril is a(n) Elite NPC. This NPC can be found in Vault of the Wardens.
Hi - Not sure if this has been addressed already... Why does the guide for Hallow's end reference the Wicked Witch's Signet with a mouseover that shows the correct item (and ilvl) but the link doesnt? I know the armoury had an issue recently but since Tuesday they have that fixed.
Mouse over on Guide
Actual link not showing right item or options
the reason I am asking is until I can get it replaced it breaks simulations. SIMC as example errors out because it doesnt see the item listed in the wowdb
I think I should have posted this here:
I got Relic of Ursol but your site for it is: http://www.wowhead.com/item=123865 "This item doesn't exist or is not yet in the database." Can I help?
The rings from hollow's end are also 835, not 810
Hey mods, http://www.wowhead.com/temple-of-ahnqiraj says the loot is the same as Ony's lair.... can't figure out how to report it so I figured I'd post here 😃
Just some general feedback; I find the horizontal nav /dropdowns bars a little irritating to use at times.
I kept having problems where I'd mouse over the first list trying to get to the second, and then I had to find a spot to mouse off of it, and ended up closing the whole thing
Issue is mostly because some of those drop downs cover up the entire primary menu
Not to diminish your feedback, I'm not involved with the nav bar really, but I had similar issues until I retrained myself to take my mouse over the catagories first before moving down to select something, really stopped the issue, especially with 'Database'
BTW guys, the mic levels are PERFECT on this weeks stream, good job on the changes Panser!
when I search from the text box in the upper right the search results actually cover what I typed - is this intended? kinda irritating :/
Any idea why I literally have to sign back into the site (either ZAM or Bnet, happens with both) every 30 minutes even with the Stay Logged In button checked on both sign ins?
Adblock isn't running on the site either. It's getting very frustrating to have to sign back in all the time.
kekse
Is this place to report errors?
Well when I try unzip the WoWhead Bag Scanner addon it says it cant becasue its corrupt?
work for me as mouse over for the popup menu but the actual class icon doesnt link to anything if clicked
I've left a note for our devs about the cookies and navigation issues, it's the weekend so may not get to it until Monday. Thank you for your patience everyone 😃
