August 13th is a Monday, not a Tuesday like they say it is - just thought I'd point it out for you
I think it's accurate
Oh
I see what you mean
It should be Monday 13th / Tuesday 14th
Exactly
But it's accurate that yep, the US can play a day in advance
That's awesome
The site keeps sending me that new ad notification even when I'm logged in
Quote from Sas148 "This displays to anyone, at all times, your preference is stored in local storage. However, you need the ability to opt out/in at any time, so the window will be maintained (currently on the bottom left, subject to change). If your local storage is deleted, then it'll pop up again.
We're not looking to pester anyone, we're just doing what we can to comply with GDPR as it's currently interpreted."
So if it keeps popping up - something is clearing your local storage
Blizzard has added a countdown to their site 😃
@arctic cairn oh? Wehre at?
https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/ @plucky fractal
And Blizz has updated with the correct days 😃
What was the typo @scarlet peak?
It appears a typo has been fixed because I don't see any now and am disappointed lol
Character Copies will be live this build! Keep in mind some copies will be slow or fail due to the volume of requests. Just love on Beta servers, Select the Copy Character and Copy your characters will all your gear you have on live!
still there
Oh Twitter - they have to delete it then retweet it all over again - don't think they're going to do that and I wouldn't - just love on beta servers 😃
Typos happen, not worth removing and reposting over in this case. 😉
There's a couple actually, but when a beta build drops, it's rapid fire time.
Especially for MMO-yousoslow 😛 You guys are always before them and I love it! 😄
That is why I choose to be premium here instead of there
I love you guys - virtual hugs!!
Isnt it 'Tattoos' and not 'Tattos' ? If so, i found a type on the Zandalari Troll Allied Race page. http://www.wowhead.com/zandalari-troll-allied-race
It's at the customization options.
lol
Found an Error on the New Frenzied Feltalon Update which says that its a recolor of the same mount twice
Im guessing the other one is meant to be the Voidtalon from WoD?
If you bring me on as a mod Sas I will gladly go through and correct these typos lol 😛
I'm just kidding - but if there is ever an opening, I'm a message away haha
Showing coreectly for me
Weird it doesn't seem to be a mobile issue, since its still showing for me on Desktop
ctrl+f5?
^^
Likely cache, yes, HARD refresh. Do it very hard.
I can't even
Sas is a lil sassy this evening lol
See what I did there? Hah! OK, I'm done - gotta run to the bank lol
hard? gonna buy a new PC!
Hey guys, where did the bfa version of wowhead go?
where it always was
Ah thank you 😃
Anyone else having issues accessing the site
Someone get WoWHead a bucket, stat!
yeah it just happened. I'll buy some celery for the hamsters!
who stole the bucket?
interestingly enough it's only the main page that is affected... using links from latest news seems to work
the bucket is no longer tipped over
Yeah see, there are many buckets, so most everything was fine, but... not the main bucket. 😛
Was wondering if there are any plans for a calculator for converting all your live honor levels/prestiges into BfA honor levels, to see how close you are to whatever rewards it is you're interested in?
Doubtful, it would probably take us a month just to make something like that and it would be obsolete pretty quickly thereafter. Wouldn't be a wise investment of our time really.
Pre-launch patch may even be out by then.
Fair enough
Mythice - that a new difficulty we don't know about? 😛
Yeah, Mythice and Mythfire
so question. The orange name display is for Wowhead premium subscribers, right? b/c I am a premium subscriber and it's not showing...just curious...
Check #welcome-rules for how to earn your orange @amber talon 😉
no orange for you
Wtf’s an orange
Wowhead's Premium subscription
No.
$1 a month or $9 for a year... sign up here https://www.wowhead.com/account=premium
Please can you update the bfa talent tree after the last build? Still not yet updated
Hey @rare tulip, due to changes with Blizzard data, this build is taking longer than normal to have all new spell data (including new talent trees) to the website. We have been working non-stop to have it fixed as fast as possible, thanks for your patience!
Ok thanks 😃
@junior moon does that himself. 😃
Well he’s doing a very good job!
Some horrible comments in #452336649775480852 - some are harsh
some people aren't trying, but some are giving it a run
Is there anyone who can update frost dk GCD because 2 of the abilities hungering rune weapon and obliteration are removed if im not mistaken?
Hey, we have removed them
👍
For the WoW economy article - it should be 42nd not 42st edition 😃
Would it be impossible to add a "convert character to bfa character" feature to have an estimated simulation of how a character would be after the stat squish?
It would help with theorycrafting/running numbers for people who aren't in the beta.
I believe they answered a question similar to this, in that it would take to long/use to many resources that by the time it was released either a,) it would be out of dat or b.) bfa would already be released
That makes sense, but it doesn't hurt to ask again. :)
Theres a typo in the new article
it says 4 Tortollan Seekers WQs but its Champion of Azeroth WQS
If u hvnt seen it at the bottom of WoW BFA homepage is this countdown - might it be worth making an article notifcation about it and is there any way to have a banner / timer on WoWhead that is sync'd to this???
Mmo hasnt got anything on this yet sooo lets be 1st wowhead team??
@dusk trail, they did made a news article about the global release (http://www.wowhead.com/news=284825), three days ago, the countdown is nothing more than flash to the actual news.
The Timers been up since the Global Release Map was announced?
Shortly after, yeah. There was even an incorrect time that they had to fix.
Still, the countdown isn't really news, there are several of them out there.
Does anyone know where this NPC is located ? http://www.wowhead.com/npc=84547/watcher
I don't think it's anywhere. I think that was just a placeholder NPC, but if not, probably the DH intro chain.
In the Dressing Room animations list, what're the ones with 'WA' at the start? Noticed they're not available for all races
I think it stands for Walking Animation?
How to I view BFA armor in the dressing room?
Ahh k nvm i was looking at sets and not individual armor. Thanks tho
can i give some feedback about the dressing room here or do i have to do that on the wowhead site?
You're welcome to write it here, it'll be read eventually. 😃
😥
it might be a known bug already but when viewing armor pieces with 3D elements on it they bug out on a female Zandalari
they dont fix 3d elements since legion beta
what do you mean? 🤔
well yeah, but on the zandalari troll, as you can see on the screenshot i send here, the 3D piece is nowhere near where it should be. Which is a dressing room glitchy buggy thing, probably not on blizzards end 😛
oh my bad
Please be sure to include a link to the dressing room you're referring to for reference when someone has a moment to take a look. I will, however, note that we do tend to have issues displaying 3D elements on various pieces. It's an ongoing effort on our model viewer team to improve.
here's the link. http://bfa.wowhead.com/dressing-room#Rtzm0zJ8z9Mzo0zM9m8tFd8zrY87mSKp8zpq87oSKL8zLP8Umt8znz8SKy8zLP8SKT8zLP87mf
This doesn't look like the screenshot, you sure it's the right link?
i did change the gear around abit, but the glove model i mentioned is the same
i can change it back if you want?
No it's fine, I just wanted to verify. 😃
@junior moon whenever you're around, maybe you can take a look for Etherii here. Thank you!
@dusk trail I fixed it. Thanks 😃
no no
i think i was wrong and jumped the gun
didnt Ion say in last Q&A that they r just gunna call it Artefact Power now
and Azerite is a currency...
its just...confusing - my B
Oh, yeah, you're right. Reverted. 😄
so sry -_-
np
fk me no beta key 💩
Same
Wrapping up, sending out codes to winners afaik
I read that there should be a winners list
you're welcome :)
Meh just hope I get one
dont we all 😛
for the beta giveaway (I won one, lucky) I need to contact with Sas148 or anyone of the staff can give it? I'm afraid because I need to contact in 12 hours and still not here
No - you're supposed to message Sas148, he won't reach out to you
nice, so just wait then, thanks for reply @arctic cairn
If you sent him a message, yes. He'll get back to you as soon as he can.
supposed, just afraid about 12 hours to claim it 😛
thanks! 😃
@distant granite, different giveaway.
Jepaited
@sly prairie, yeah, you should just have to DM @teal dragon to claim it.
yup, made yet, only was afraid about 12 hours to claim, but now it's ok. thanks for the support! 😃
😃
is it night time for sas148 now?
It's day time but he usually is on in the evenings into overnight
it;s midday for Sas
Yeah he was working pretty late setting up various giveaways
alright thanks!
Greetings - Does anyone know how to complete the Achievement "A Picture is Worth 1000 Words - View Item results in Gallery mode." ?!?
I believe you'd visit the database page for items: http://www.wowhead.com/items and then view the results in the Gallery mode (tab below red 'Apply filter' button). May want to click Next a few times, and refresh the page, to see the achievement trigger.
it worked 😛
So happy for you @crystal olive 😉
Yeah it did work! Well only 2 Bronze achievements missing now! 😄
Thanks a lot @teal dragon
yw 😃
Now I just've to put some money on my 2nd bank account so I can login as Premium 😃
I may have just missed it, but is there a comparison tool to see what gear looks like now compared to after the squish?
Not worth the resources and time to make, iirc.
Or it may have been for something else than the gear itself... still, BfA isn't incredibly far away now.
If you go to the bfa.wowhead.com version of the page you will see the squished stats and ilvl
I scrolled up a bit, I mistook the Live vs BfA prestige/honor stuff for what you asked about, which was what wasn't worth time nor resources: my bad!
More or less ilvl 1000 is equivalent to 265 on the beta.
o? Isn't that higher than what's dropped for 116 quests?
so i won a beta key it shows on the website should i get a email like right after or do i have to wait sometime to get the email
You should get an email, yes. If you haven't received one, email feedback@wowhead.com and Sas will take care of you.
k ty
You're welcome
I'm still working through to select all 750 winners. Emails will be sent tonight.
where does it says that you won?
They would have received an achievement and it would show in their profile under Achievements and Reputation.
rip me
What are the odds to win? Would be interesting to know how many ppl have entered the contest 🤔
Which one?
The site givaway
What about the last giveaway? Where are the results for that?
"I'm still working through to select all 750 winners. Emails will be sent tonight." - Sas148
@sharp jay No disrespect, but there are multiple site giveaways going on... Be specific.
Nah i just wanted to be a rough number for example for "https://www.wowhead.com/news=284754/wowheads-battle-for-azeroth-beta-key-giveaway-week-2" from last week. I mean 750 keys is a lot, but not if 200.000 ppl entered 😃
The odds were about 1 in 10,000 for that one.
wow, that are a lot of ppl.
gets tagged on wowhead channel
Omgwtfbbq
It's @ everyone
Rip
Winners have been posted: http://www.wowhead.com/contest=wowheads-battle-for-azeroth-beta-key-giveaway-week-2.
I estimate about 2-3 hours for all 750 email notifications to be sent. Thank you.
😢
GG no beta for me again T_T
did they say when prepatch is coming ?
speculation is around the beginning of july
yeah i suppose it gonna be about 5 reset before going live, was hoping they said a date
probably june 10th
2 days ago? 😛
Related to the new warfront article, you didn’t mention any of the other content in arathi. While your faction has control of the zone, and you can teleport there, there are tons of rare elites that can be defeated with groups for loot and some of them are the sources for those mounts datamine a while ago.
@teal dragon, there's a problem with the giveaway list for week 2: my name's not on it. ;)
On a serious note, though, for the current Discord giveaway, would an armory screenshot be acceptable? My game time just expired and I won't be able to renew until I get paid next week. :S
@timid osprey I dont know if an armory screenshot would be acceptable, however, you can simply log into the game on a starter character (a character level 20 or lower) and take the screenshot, no sub required.
@plucky fractal, wanna know the saddest part? Had I seen someone else ask I'd've probably thought of the same answer. xD
I'll do that when I get home this evening. Thank you. 😃
Yea, thanks for heads up. I was wondering how im going to do that aswell without subbing 😛
So how i am suppose to enter giveaway since i cant come pc coz irl issues...
Is there an Internet cafe that offers the game near you?
@normal narwhal See if they will accept a screenshot from the WoW achievements page, like this:
https://worldofwarcraft.com/en-us/character/aerie-peak/quetzie/achievements/
(fill in your server & your character name, obviously)
They might not, but it can't hurt to try 😃
On https://www.wowhead.com/warlords-of-draenor-wow-expansion-overview#garrisons - it has the wrong release date, should be November 13, 2014.
@arctic cairn fixed
😃
😄
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the bingo cards! Keep doing that for Q&A, they're so much fun! 😃
OK - the Battle for Azeroth Mythic+ Changes - No Gear Swaps, Weekly Best Screen article posted for me 6:18 AM then posted again alongside Pre-Expansion Battle for Azeroth Patch 8.0 On PTR article. - thought I'd let you guys know
I know you guys are trying to see why that's happening so i'm trying to help the best I can but unfortunately that's all the info I can get 😦
👍🏼
Well, double post by the bot then.
Sorry, talking about the webhook
question about the liveblog post, didn't he say they nerfed necrotic to 2% from 3%? You guys have Raging up :p Unless I slept into a Mandella effect
If I change my WoWhead username, will it be changed here as well?
No, you can PM @teal dragon to request that on here
Heya, I won a key and I'm just wondering how that works
You should have received an email from wowhead containing your key. If you did not get one, email feedback@wowhead.com and Sas will take care of you
@vale hedge see this Discord support article for how to change your nickname here: https://support.discordapp.com/hc/en-us/articles/219070107-Server-Nicknames
No, it's not that @stoic acorn We don't have the perms to change our nickname here
No but you can change your discord name
That doesn't change your nickname here though
If it's already been changed that is and with premium, it is
It does. It changes your name in every discord server you are on unless you have a specific nickname in that server
And premium members here have a specific nickname in here
When we reach out to Sas - if our name doesn't match our wowhead username, he changes it to our wowhead username and it appears that is the case with adam
Not if server nickname changing is disabled
Server name and discord names are two entirely different things
Im@saying he could have changed his discord name to match his wowhead name and the change would have appeared here
That's because you're a regular member. You have the ability to do that. Sas has that ability turned off for premium users
Sad can not control what users do to their discord accounts. He can change the nicknames on this server but he can’t stop people from changing their discord names
I'm just going to stop before this just goes back and forth...
Thx @arctic cairn . @glossy remnant , the Premium nicknames correspond to our WoWHead ones. My Discord username is JustACanadian_Gamer, while my WoWHead one's adam99188. I want my nickname on this server and Discord username to match, and to do that, I need to change my WoWHead username (I assume for verification reasons, to make sure I actually have premium or not). Basically, my question was if the change was automatic, or if it's checked, or if I need/should PM Sas or not.
You're welcome. You would need to PM him yes 😃
Ok, thanks.
I'm traveling but will get to messages tonight. Ty.
I have a question and I don't know if it's known yet, but every time I try to load into wowhead, I get an error that says this,
"An error occurred while processing your request.
Reference #97.8fc8d917.1529025024.622bf8b"
@supple rampart Hi. Please clear the browser's cache and cookies, close out the browser and then open it back up and see if you are receiving the same message
and no Beta Again ........ FML
How can i get permission to send messages to "giveaways-submission" channel, for the beta keys?
@grizzled stump There is currently no giveaway running, as such, posting permissions are disabled.
Once a new giveaway starts you'll be able to enter.
ah okay thank you
i've won a key but have no clue where to use it. any help ?
@elder crane You'll need to login to the Blizzard website, and under your profile, there should be a Code Redemption page.
https://eu.battle.net/support/en/article/11263 explains it in more detail (note that that's the EU page).
No problem, enjoy beta!
We're glad to hear that, Datoniz. If you need further assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us back. Have a great day ahead! 
With the release of 8.0 on the ptr and soon to be released on live, with it comes the new Community feature. Are there plans for either an in-game wowhead community, or a community-recruitment channel in this discord?
"After weeks of R&D, experimentation"
Need to turn that into a proper ampersand
Hi. I was one of the winners for the discord giveaway that concluded about 15 hours ago. I sent a message to @teal dragon but I'm not sure if it is the right person as I did not receive a response. Is there any way to get in contact with someone to receive my prize? Thank you in advance.
He is the right person and should message you when available @frank rover
@crystal olive ok cool thank you
I haven't gotten around to this yet and have been at personal appointments. I will get to everyone when I have the chance. Ty.
Is anyone else on Windows 10 build 17692 (latest insider preview)? The Wowhead looter keeps crashing on me and I'm trying to narrow down if that's the cause. I've already deleted all +Wowhead_Looter.lua files and tried renaming the Cache folder.
Thank you wowhead, Snowfang puppy has been adopted safely and is being kept company by my other buddies

Okay, so while I could get around not having an active subscription on the last giveaway by logging into a low-level character, this one can't be. Are there any other acceptable options for the screenshot than the in-game UI? I know Wowhead had an importer for the artifact calculator, but it's erring whenever I try to import my main. Would that even be acceptable? :S
No - the giveaway states that if you don't have a sub, you won't be able to enter.
Oh, wow, I'm blind, completely last line in the criteria. ^^'
Sorry about that, @arctic cairn.
It's alright
is there a plan to give everyone with twitch sub, premium on wowhead/Zam, if not put it on the list to discuss 😉
Twitch and wowhead are separate entities. I don't see how that could even work.
This can be done, but i think the effort todo this would not be worth it. Wowhead would need to implement a way to connect a wowhead account to a twitch account (twitch provides apis todo this). After the accounts are linked wowhead could check if a subscription for the wowhead twitch channel exists if this is the case wowhead premium could be activated for the user. But like i said, needs quite a bit of work todo so.
@jovial nest While we appreciate our Twitch Subscribers, it's not possible to have that linked up to Wowhead (as nawuko pointed out). There's a rather small # of people who subscribe there, and the amount of work it would take is more than it's really worth. Hope you understand. If you're a subscriber to our Twitch channel though, you can get that role automatically here by linking Discord to Twitch, but it only affects the Discord, not the site.
I don't have my WoW sub currently yet I want to enter, what do I do!?
@sullen isle Unfortunately, it's not possible to participate in the current giveaway without an active sub.
http://www.wowhead.com/news=261066/druid-class-mount-and-quest-archdruids-lunarwing-form I noticed that here it says you need to get exalted status with armies of legionfall to get the mount, altough i just aquite my lunarwing form and I'm only revered. The requirements are legionfall questline and orderhall campaign completed.
@raw solstice That is a news post from well over a year ago, previewing the mount before class mounts were even introduced. At the time, the information was accurate.
Yeah I get that but wanted to inform its no longer accurate.
@raw solstice Fixed 😃
Nice ^-^
@raw solstice I understood that you were informing us that it wasn't correct. Reading through old news isn't the best way to get up to date information, similar to how you wouldn't read last years newspaper to catch up on todays events. While Nightswifty was kind enough to update this post, it's not really feasible to keep every news post ever made accurate for todays game.
If you're looking for information, you're better off using the database or guides, as those are kept up to date.
So Beta pics were acceptable as screenshot contribution aswell right? @plucky fractal
Correct.
Cheers, seems like i need to DL some ID addons + WL client for Beta then 😉
@plucky fractal Since wowhead is a big website and people look into the how to acquire the order hall mount all the time and ll and all the requirements ARE different, it is very discouraging to see another rep grind ahead of you (for allied races, various hidden skins etc.). I thought it is nicer to users in the webpage that they get up to date information rather than old/outdated information. and this was feedback, not attempt to do peoples job.
What do i know, but I doubt the wowhead staff has time to go trough every page that they have ever made to pinpoint details that are out of date, and I'm not expecting them to. Since staff can't be expected to go trough all of it, I thought feedback would be helpful so staff can see where the outdated information is to update (since it's one of the first results on google).
@raw solstice If you find something that is incorrect or outdated, you can always click the orange “This needs a moderators attention” button, and report the content via that method, so that we can see to it that it is updated correctly.
i wil use that next time thank you. 
#noHate but why is there another Post about a reputation horse that we saw data mined since the start of the year.
But there is no Timer Banner on WoWhead?
I have to live with this ATM.
https://www.timeanddate.com/countdown/to?iso=20180814T062215&p0=195&msg=BATTLE+FOR+AZEROTH+GLOBAL+LAUNCH&font=slab&csz=1
Leon - there is a countdown on the WoW site - that's more accurate
@raw solstice We do appreciate users bringing potential errors to our attention so if my response came across otherwise that wasn't my intent. I merely meant to highlight that news posts are not meant for anything other than to inform users of upcoming changes/additions at the time of posting, and shouldn't be used for acquiring information long after the fact. Wowhead has guides on all major things people could be interested in (such as class mounts) and those are kept up to date, and are what users should be finding if they search for specific queries.
@dusk trail we like to highlight individual mounts in separate newsposts. Since Vills had just finished writing the reputation guide for that mount, it seemed to be a good time to feature it.
Hey @teal dragon, you've got a mixed content warning on Wowheads front page. http://media.services.zam.com/v1/media/byName/Heroes_of_the_Storm_logo_2015.png is the culprit.
@woeful umbra should be good now ty
You be welcome. Us web devs gotta help each other out, right? 😛
For transparency sake, I'm not a dev. But I do what I can :)
Quick, someone appoint Sas honorary webdev.
(the latter being the page that comes up when you click on "Artifact Traits and Legendary Effects Returning in Battle for Azeroth - Updated to Build 26812" in the first link)
There is a news post and an article, both are separated
imo
the news post isn't particularly clear about the fact that those two are the ones from the latest build
& that the link takes you to the full article
Ok I can make it clearer in a few, thanks for the suggestion!
@serene lodge updated the news post to make it more obvious 😄
It's overly costly to do, with little monetary gain to be had. We also couldn't fit the entire site into an app, and users would be displeased by the minimal functionality.
What would you expect an app to do that the mobile site doesn't do @lapis fable?
@teal dragon I won ?
If you got tagged yes.
(he didn't)
So many not eligible ones today :D I guess like me, they didn't have sub (or forgot)
24 ineligible
loading/login, w/e... when you login there's things loading, right? 🤷 😄
We get too excited covering stuff that sometimes we mess up words 😄
noes
lol read instruction phsssaaawww too hard! haaa 😉
@teal dragon cheers on running them contests. i dont knwo if most could do it without profanity at frustrating entries not actually qualifying 😛 very patient dude 😃
yvw 😃
@teal dragon is there a place where the giveaway winners in Discord are listed? just curious .. noticed when I went to see if all the keys for last give away were claimed it was wiped and the new giveaway started..
@true lintel, if the list of winners is no longer listed then they all claimed their prize.
Other than that, all I can tell you is that I saw the note that all had claimed their prizes last night before the channel was reset.
If you had won, you would have a ping, even if the message had been deleted.
nod.. just a curiosity thing 😃
@true lintel since these have been more rapid than in the past I haven't left them up, but I have lists if you need them. I'm also not rerolling people who don't respond right now, also because of the back-to-back frequency, just reusing those unclaimed keys in future giveaways. Frankly the majority of people don't pay enough attention as it is so I try to keep the channel as clutter free as possible. Shoot me a message if you ever need clarification or want a winners' list. Thank you.
@teal dragon, you're welcome to toss one my way. 😉
Hello this is minor but I found that the tables in website achievment page dont align properly
This was on my laptop so not the mobile site (sorry for bad resolution. Uploaded through mobile discord)
Hmm, thought we had fixed that, or maybe a ticket is just pending a fix.
Ah I think it's your resolution then
Hey! Today I finally got a little "A WINNER IS YOU" achievement and I jumped in the air! I won one of the beta keys handed out for the third week. However I do not have an e-mail as of right now. I checked and my e-mailadress is the right one. Do I have to wait a bit longer for an e-mail with the beta key, or do you think something went wrong? Not sure if this was the right place to put this question, so I hope this is alright haha.
Message from Sas Before anyone asks, I'm working on Week 3 now. Should have winners selected tonight and emails sent by tomorrow. Thank you.
Yeah, emails are starting to be sent, but I won't likely be able to babysit it the 3-4 hours it requires, so some winners won't get their emails until tomorrow sometime.
Alright, thanks for letting me know. Wasn't sure if anything went wrong haha.
Not quite site-related but seems the best channel to ask in (sorry if it's been answered elsewhere) - are there plans to update the wowhead twitch extension so that it's a "component" one rather than a full overlay, now that Twitch have launched being able to use multiple component extensions?
Yo, is there a way to filter news categories? I couldn't care less about the beta.
Nor PTR.
It's fairly annoying that sometimes the titles themselves contain spoilers.
Like right now it's thursday and the post about this week is already pushed to page 2.
how do u find out if u won a cdkey i checked website
@elfin tapir No, there's no such feature, and the devs have mentioned that they don't plan on adding one any time soon either I'm afraid.
@frosty radish If you win a beta key giveaway, you'll receive an e-mail.
ty for info
mkay
Just got my key. Thank you guys :D
Congratulations! 
I won key through the website and i'm having issue to redeem it, just says an error has occured.
Omg I'm also a beta winner :o
It's not public yet... and I'm genuinely surprised you noticed it that quickly. lol
Hastyboi trying to see contests before they are annouced 😛
I've removed it from being displayed on that page. Expect a post later today. 😃
I saw @rancid copper and @noble mortar post about winning keys and went to check the winners list from last week. ^^'
Noticed it on my way to it. ^^'
It's no big deal, just funny is all 😉
Can I have a pin for pointing it out? xD
😛 I removed your post here, don't want the links floating around confusing anyone. ty tho. I'm up WAYYYY past my bedtime, took awhile to send all the emails for Week 3's beta key winners. Have a good one.
I can help you with automating it. 😮
It is automated. 😛 It's just slow, because it's old and not worth fixing. It works, that's what matters. 
Good night! 😄
The markup tags available in the "Links" modal of each page, those should work anywhere on Wowhead, right?
Hey. Just WOn a Beta Key at the Giveaway but when i try to activate it theres just "An error accured" Any Support here?
@frank lake We merely provide the beta keys, we cannot assist with any issues in activation, for that, you'll need to reach out to Blizzard Support.
Ok, ty for the quick answer !
got same problem adn looks liek i got US beta key but im europen player
blzzard tell me to conntact you
do i need contat via email site or here? It is even possible to change this US beta key to EU beta key?
Well **** me then. Do i have a US Key too?
on my account
i use: http://www.battle.net/code
and enterd cone witch not work GM support form blizard says this key is not valid for UE users
I'm really open for all solutions just dont force me to make accaunt on US server to play me free beta key...
Odd, I don't play EU, but I can log into EU and see my US account info. :S
i also got my account merged with old US accaunt and can see it
but thath don't change fact tahth current key is not working
the accounts should be connected between us and EU
And I can't redeem mine either, as it just pops error message to me
that's the problem
So weird. Yeah, that doesn't make sense to me. As @viscid heart mentioned, the Beta servers should be the same for both and list as being under the PTR region, rather than EU/US. Sounds like that may either be misinformation from the GMs or Blizzard didn't inform anyone that they were changing the system. :S
I even tried to swap to US page but it did nothing, still getting same message
but gonna check through launcher now, as i can see the beta as a option to dl, so will see did it activate, despite the error
You may have already had it if you're receiving an error and have it available for download.
yeah, thats what i'm hoping for
yes i just checked there is a option in lancher for me
I've heard from a few people they magically had the Beta already without having received any notice.
The email from Blizz can take 3-5 business days to come in. They had a build on Tuesday and they usually do a wave of invites at every build. Today would be business day 3
My guess is you can install the beta even without having access yet (just you can install most games without actually having an account for them).
I got my email 5 days after seeing the invite so it can take a bit
ok even witha error i got beta BFA is availble in launcher now so best luck to others :0
@rancid copper, no, the Beta is only an option to install if it's been added to your account.
Oh, that's weird. I had it a few days ago :/ I wouldn't have redeemed my key if I knew that.
Best way to check is just to check your accounts on the website. If you have 2 PTR accounts, one is for the PTR and the other is for the Beta.
No - that's not entirely correct
You will have 1 PTR account and 1 Beta account
You'll see PTR: World of Wacraft and Beta: Battle for Azeroth
I have 2 ptr accounts from which one says draenor and other one legion, so will see anyway if i can log in to the beta as i can dl it
yeah, despite it not saying that i have beta access in the account page, I can log in the beta
@arctic cairn, I know that's how it's labeled in the launcher, but I was referring to the actual website. On there, if you are in both the PTR and the Beta, you should have 2 PTR accounts listed. I believe the one labeled for the current expansion is the actual PTR while the one listed for the base game is the Beta, but don't quote me on that.
Probably too late to fix now, but as a heads up for next time it looks like an early draft of this post was used for the preview in Discord:
Yeah, shouldn't it be "from xyz to rts"?
it is almost as if that post was ready to go before the announcement 🤔
Couldn't be. We all know they type them up perfectly timed so they finish just when they want the announcement to be posted. xD
we have a lot of posts prepped for 'what if' moments like 'mage tower is now permanent and click on these guides' 'bfa prepatch deadline announced and reminder that this is going away' etc. kind of like obituaries and newssites. We modified some returning player drafts we never quite found the time to publish once we saw on reddit that the weekend event might be a thing.
hey guys, just a heads up, Avast just blocked the wowhead client (was there an update today?), I marked it as safe, but just in case anyone else has an issue
we've been doing some updates to it for ptr
I guess the discussion about the Beta keys kinda got this lost, but the markup tags available in the "Links" modal of each page, those should work anywhere on Wowhead, right? I ask because I used them from event pages when replying to the Midsummer new/giveaway and they didn't work.
@timid osprey which "link" did you try to use?
The markup links, pulled from the respective Wowhead pages. [event=327] and [event=201] to be precise.
They do work, post your message and then link it here in case it's not working!
Posted hours ago: https://www.wowhead.com/news=285065.2#p4207325
It's why I originally asked.
I think the event markups are disabled for non-staff members. Could you try this instead?
[url=https://www.wowhead.com/lunar-festival]Lunar Festival[/url] and [url=https://www.wowhead.com/childrens-week]Children's Week[/url]
Yeah, those work, but if the markups are disabled it seems odd to allow them to be pulled from the pages. jmo
The tooltips aren't loading either. Someone will look into this sooner or later 😃
There's an achievement markup being used by mybelovedchaos a few posts up: https://www.wowhead.com/news=285065.2#p4207311
It seems to be working, link and tooltip.
He linked an achievement, which anyone can do, events aren't linkable by non-staff.
Why, I don't really know, but there's all kinds of markup only for staff.
Odd that the markup links would be available to non-staff, then. :S
But, hey, I got the answer. xD
Showing in the Links button I assume? Yeah, I agree.
Just an oversight I imagine.
Or we never intended to make that staff only.
Obviously doesn't come up a lot lol
I'll be happy to join the team as a developer whenever y'all want. 😉
Is this the place to also report issues with the wowhead client?
Yes
But we could ask you to provide the logs to us. In that case, email would be more convenient way ;)
What's the issue with Wowhead Client you experience?
getting "invalid status code: 500" when uploading data
actually better if i copy paste...
[22:27:12] Upload failed: Invalid status code: 500.
This is version 1.9.25, built on June 22, 2018.
happy to send email but i don't see one on the site. Feedback form doesn't have a way to attach files.
Please do this Delete the +Wowhead_Looter.lua (and +Wowhead_Looter.lua.bak) file in your World of Warcraft/WTF/Account/<Account Name>/SavedVariables folder. Then, go relaunch World of Warcraft. Give it a minute, close it and try to upload again.
Glad to hear it. Thank you for using Wowhead Client 
i need a beta key pleaseeeee!!!!
What do beta keys do?
give you access to the BFA beta...
I'm just curious, what is wowhead's website written in?
English and other languages. 
ha-ha :^)
I'm sure it's php, html, and all the others.
I gave https://www.wowhead.com/news=270738/now-hiring-lead-engineer-for-wowhead as a good example of the overview 😉
well there ya go, thx @stoic acorn
Hey there, I'm seeing BFA talents in calculators in guides on the live version of the site, is there any way to fix that?
Example please?
http://www.wowhead.com/frost-death-knight-artifact-challenge on this guide, I'm seeing BFA talents
@small crypt how about now?
I'm seeing live talents now, thanks! 😃
yvw, the guide was set to the ptr database, probably accidently, when the pre-patch got put on ptr that changed the talents.
Ahhh that makes sense. I'll let you know if I run into any others that are like that
Sure. Though in a few weeks they'll all be bfa anyhow. 😉
Yeah, feeling the race for getting last minute mage towers 😅
dear wowhead,thank you for beta key❤
Enjoy the beta! 😃
hello is there anyone that can help me with something would need a bit in private talking
Is it regarding a billing issue or...? Just something of what the issue is without giving too much detail if you wish
What does that have to do with Wowhead?
i wanted to know iff its legit becaus he said he had some wow hacks as well
Considering hacks are against the ToS, you won't and will NEVER receive support for such activity
from here anyway
i don't want hack but he came to me in a wisper
Right click - report to report it to Blizz. Wowhead is a fansite and is in no way associated to the game activities of WoW. They're just a database.
oh ok my epologies
It's alright. 😃
where do i find the blizz report
You'll right click their name and click report player
ok thanks
np
There is something that i noticed in the dressing room (yes i use that a lot.. maybe too much) if you checked the "use the upright posture" for the mag'har orcs(im not sure if its the case on a regular orc aswell) and you close the page and then come back again it doesnt "remember" that you checked it. its something extremely minor but its just something i noticed ^^
I've been wanting for a long time to be able to use the old models in the dressing room. I'd like if we could use the old models there
Our site is always updated to the newest data, we won't be able to display old models if they're no longer in game. Sorry.
Ah okay, I just really like the old models and animations. Maybe if you find some way to add the old models when classic comes out.
How can I get the sound pages to display the proper file path instead of a number? im looking to mute a specific sound file and guides from a few years ago say wowhead should have ingame links such as "/script PlaySoundFile("ds\sound\spells\precastnaturemagichigh.ogg")" but now they're all like "/script PlaySound(9099)"
@rich wyvern "nimar the slayer" and "krix the overseer" have the same picture for the position in the news post, i assume they are from "nimar the slayer"
Hi, I have a problem with the site, whenever I open it, it loads fine but then it instantly loads a second time and this is very irritating. Does anyone has a solution for this? I'm using the Vivaldi browser if that helps.
@main dome hi, please check out the post https://www.reddit.com/r/vivaldibrowser/comments/4bxvbj/websites_reloading_every_time_they_are_brought/ and tell us if that helps
I disabled the automatic tab discarding but it won't do any good. I'll delete the cookies and see if that helps.
Try to enable this option vivaldi://flags/#enable-non-validating-reload-on-normal-reload
I don't see that option
just type it in address bar and press Enter
I did and there are a lot of options but none matches the one you linked
it seems like option has gone. Could you try using another web browser?
it seems like that this is a vivaldi-only problem because chrome loads the site only once, though I haven't tried other chromium browsers.
Thank you for your help anyways
You're welcome
Fixed a number of leveling guides pointing to PTR versions of spells, not live
i know why that happend and why it wasnt known, but thats funny. it was 2 years ago that the guides where written
Semi site related. Does anyone know any other addon than IDtip that could show me Spell / Ablity ID:S in beta of BFA? WoWhead Client only shows ID:s for NPC:s after all
@viscid heart they were written leading up to 7.3.5 in jan, it became a problem now because of the ptr being re-enabled during beta
ah, i thought leveling from 100 to 110, and written during the legion ptr, thanks for clearing that up
ah yeah we did have those originally but then revamped the whole leveling section in light of 7.3.5 changes and current search terms
& could anyone foward me to Mag'Har Orc and Dark Iron Dwarf Allied Race hubs on wowhead? 😃
Found the guides for them from frontpage but was not able to find their allied races part on site
Hi, just saw this on r/wow. Slightly concerning! Can any staff please comment on this? https://www.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/8tis0u/here_are_some_of_the_companies_wowhead_shares/
209 votes and 37 so far on reddit
I can say that you opt in when you hit accept on the cookie prompt - when you hit opt out, you're opted out. That is GDPR compliant. As far as what exactly is shared, that would have to come from staff to say for certain.
https://bfa.wowhead.com/quest=50642
Supposed to exist but cant seem to find it :/
was it due to the World of Warcraft itself again?
Removed description to keep it spoilerfree.
i can see text
REEEEEEE SPOILERS (jk)
@verbal sky, it looks like the BfA database hasn't been updated with all the quests this past week, but the quest is in the PTR database: https://ptr.wowhead.com/quest=50642
Either that, or it was removed from the BfA database and the PTR hasn't caught up.
@chilly tide We aim to be GDPR compliant and the company that handles our GDPR popup for EU users, venatus, claims to be compliant as well. Here's their blog: https://www.venatusmedia.com/blogs/venatus-gdpr-compliance
Thx @timid osprey not entirely sure which quests are up in PTR already as i dont go into PTR too often 😃
@tawny blade Compliant* took me a while to realise what it actually said so i'm putting this here
regarding the quests yeah we did a quest dump for ptr 26877, but for beta it was done for 26871 only
Thanks for the response, Perculia!
Thx PigeonD aswell
Seems to be running fine other than seeing an issue with the preview of the secret pet article where it has npc#143189 instead of the name of the NPC
https://bfa.wowhead.com/item=163524
Can you access this item. keeps timing me out
"Shadow Hunter's Bow" is the real name btw.
@verbal sky Times out for me too
hmm
"
Gateway Timeout
The proxy server did not receive a timely response from the upstream server.

"
If anyone needs to check this out.
Yeah that page does time out for me too

seems like it is only BFA.wowhead.com which is having hard time to work atm
yea ptr.wowhead.com works aswell it is just bfa part of site that seems to be down
oh you cant ping staff anymore. not sure were you even able to 😃
seems like it is items & NPC in BFA site which aint working right now.
BFA quests work just fine
would like to keep posting stuff if those parts of sites would be working 
we're looking into it now, looks like maybe a query killer is in effect
Query Killer ?
Query killer kills any requests that are taking too long, it's to ensure site stability. Sometimes it has to be tuned to be more or less aggressive.
who is a web dev here?
Wowhead does have a memory leak and consumes wayyyyy to much ram over the time
i let the site stay open for 30 minutes and it consumed 3,5 gb
There is a .js file which constantly requests smth
@rugged blade, I'm not a developer with Wowhead, but I am an Internet programmer. I've had the site open for weeks without issue, often only refreshing once a day to get the daily count. Is there a particular page you're having trouble with?
Okay, well, I guess I'll just twiddle my thumbs. 😃
not sure if this classifies as a bug (or if this is the place to post this) but small typo in the latest news - I apologize if this isnt the place
its 6 weeks 6 days and a few hours
On Beta raid azerite armor dont have traits yet,but on site you can see them. Its a bug or intended?
The site shows what the game data provides, Blizzard may have auras or effects that suppress it to hide from players
Hey wowhead, I am curious as to what you've done to create such nice link embed previews in the #latest-news-old channel. Looks very nice (:
Like the big images rather than small ones.
IIRC: if a webpage has a twitter summary meta of "large summary" it will post large images in discord.
there are options on https://www.wowhead.com/news-webhook to implement a version with large or small thumbnails
http://bfa.wowhead.com/dressing-room#Rz0M0zJ8z9Mzzz0m9m87MUeu87cUeg808Hk3808EaP808Uei8zxG8UxP808Utz808UxY808UxF808E3U87c Can anyone help me figure out why I can't get the 3D assets for the belt I've got selected to load in? I've seen a ton of screenshots that have them loaded but it won't work for me.
nvm
Hello
What can we help you with @pliant pasture?
CAN SOMEONE PUT IN THERE THAT THE NEW WARLOCK STUFF IS FOR TROLLING TOO?
hm?
@north vault what do you mean
The locker
and the sunwell
Can't be walked through
So if you put it in a doorway
It gets...well, you can't pass
That'll be hotfixed quick lol
I started to do the quests for my alts on the mount quests to meet the prerequisites in the mount guides.... it appears that the exalted rep requirement was removed but the guide still says you need exalted, is there a way to get that updated?
yeahhh that is probably gonna get fixed asap
if you link to a specific guide, or hit 'feedback' when you're on that guide page, we can narrow down the page and update that one
for example on https://www.wowhead.com/patch-7-2-class-mounts I don't see a mention of Exalted
The first page has no references for rep yes, but by specific class is where the erroneous entry is
http://www.wowhead.com/news=260523/warlock-class-mount-and-quests-netherlords-dreadsteed for example
Standard google searches still link to these news pages, so it might be better to just archive the pages
we'll update the topic sentences - they are the main place we have the writeups, and as you said google points to them, so we wouldn't want to hide a page people praobably have bookmarked
http://bfa.wowhead.com/news=285242/battle-for-azeroth-new-spell-animations-create-soulwell-ritual-of-summoning anyone else unable to see the videos?
seems to be working fine
theyre just black boxes to me
could you try to turn off BetterTwitchTV extension and disable hardware acceleration in a browser's settings?
I got a weird one. I tried to load my character's artifact on PC Chrome and get "Error fetching iterynil on US-Fizzcrank from Blizzard Battle.net" On Android Chrome, it loads just fine. 😮
On the PC, I can see in the Developer Tools that it's erring when making the XHR to the Blizzard API, but there's no status code, only "(failed)".
Figured it out. I use an addon for blocking tracking cookies and the like and it was (for some reason) flagging the API call. So, for anyone else that encounters this, check addons like "Privacy Badger". 😉
That's exactly what the staff suggest too... Always always always look at your add-ons because 9 times out of 10, that's your culprit
Yeah, except Privacy Badger isn't supposed to block XHR like that. xD
What its supposed to do and what it does are 2 different things.
True. Besides, trying to solve it helped me improve my JSON formatter userscript. xD
That's a plus lol
how did you guys complete "Of Myths and Legends" on the beta?
i get there and lucille is phased out
Hey guys, I just want to report that I don't know what happened to the website but every time I open it in Firefox while I got World of Warcraft running, my computer gets so overwhelmed with adds that everything crashes. Even Youtube is not causing my computer to crash. I really love your website, but the fact that everything crashes because of it makes me consider using another website.
@torpid bane Can you elaborate? The moment you open Wowhead on Firefox the site crashes? How is it getting overwhelmed with ads? There's at most 4 ads on a page. They do refresh every 90 seconds or so, but you shouldn't have any issues with it (though this largely depends on your system I suppose, and any other browser plugins/addons you may be running). There is the possibility of a resource issue if the page is open for an extended period of time, usually 30+ minutes. If it begins to lag at all usually a simple refresh of the page will resolve it.
@teal dragon Site stays open but everything goes so slow. I can't play WoW the moment I open WoWhead. I'm using a few addons but I can open any other website without a crash (Youtube for example).
Any pages of WoWhead website causes everything to slow down dramatically. I can't click on a link for over 60 seconds, I can't move in game...
I understand your desire to use YouTube as an example but our site is very different from them. YouTube doesn't really have ads, except the ones injected into their videos. The whole infrastructure is different there. So, setting that aside...
...you're loading the site and it takes 60 seconds to click anything or move around?
It depends but the second a video add triggers, I noticed it goes slower...
Are you running adblockers or anything that would be conflicting with our attempts to ensure ads are displayed to those visiting the site?
AdBlock, ABP, etc. ?
I pulled updated azerite power data from the game files and created a google sheet (formatting is bad but almost done)
We are currently on AK 8 on the beta
I Can provide the data if you would like to update WoWHead
@teal dragon Yes of course! There are so many adds on most websites, it's pollution.
@torpid bane some of the issue may be our attempts to display ads while your adblocker(s) are trying to stop them. Have you considered a Premium membership? See what sort of impact that has on your experience?
As much as I appreciate the amount of work all of you guys put into that website, because really, I do know it's a lot of work and time, I am not in a position where I can spend money on something that will remove the adds on a website. Short term, it maybe worth it, but I don't spend enough time on the website to consider that investment.
Out of curiosity, are you aware of the price?
I'd be happy to give you some Premium time to try it out first if you'd like as well.
It costs no more than $1 a month, or pay $9 for the whole year. That's it.
Sounds like a good deal, tbh^
If this is absolutely not possible, I'd like to ask that you consider trying out the site without the addons/extensions, one by one, to see if any one in particular is perhaps exacerbating the issue. For example. using uBlock instead of AdBlock, if that's what you're using. Ultimately we'd prefer you go Premium, so we get some support while you don't see ads, but I'd still rather you not have a hard time on the site so maybe a different addon would be less of a conflict.
We try to keep up with adblockers to prevent these sort of conflicts but since we don't actually develop them it's hard to keep apprised of their changes, and ultimately they should be the ones resolving the issue on their end. Still, since that's easier said than done, a different type might prove beneficial.
I'll think about it. Thanks for the offer. 😃
hey sas? since you are here, do you know who went and did the jaina quests for wowhead? im trying to do "Of Myths and Legends" but Lucille isnt there so i was hoping to find out how that person was able to turn the quest in
I do not, but I'll ask.
I think I have an answer but neither person is around right now to try to answer the question.
@hardy bloom "she was inside the main house in Arom's Stand for me"
Webhook double posted again 😦
that one was a technical difficulty, not a double post
Look in #latest-news-old 😃
hi, i couldn't find anywhere to contact wowhead support on the site. it says i won something a few days ago, i'm guessing it was a beta key? so that's awesome! but how do i get it? i didn't receive an email or anything ):
@valid ember What's your Wowhead username?
msronzio
@valid ember, check your inbox/junk going back a few weeks. It says you won a deleted contest 3.5 weeks ago.
Since the Beta key giveaways are still on the contests page, I doubt it was one of them.
i don't have anything there, the email is current and shows notifications on my phone.
thanks anyway
@valid ember Send a PM to Sas148 here on Discord and he'll look into it for you.
thank you!
@valid ember When I award the acheivement manually it shows (Deleted) so if you ever see (Deleted) it's me personally. You had won a Handmade Faction Bracelet from the Artist's Corner giveaway we did that ended June 3rd. Unfortunately, the 14 day response deadline has lapsed. I highly encourage anyone participating in contests/giveaways ensure their emails are current and that they're checking them regularly.
I'm sorry for any disappointment you experience as a result of this, but I hope you understand the need for prompt attention in these things. An email is sent and a site notification is provided upon the next visit to the site. That's about as much as I can do to notify someone. Thank you.
is there a way to search for items/spells that grant bonus experience in the database, cant find a filter, maybe i m blind 🙈 items like the darkmoon top hat or the midsummer pole dance buff
@jovial nest, You can filter by effect test: https://www.wowhead.com/items/live-only:on?filter=107;0;experience
thx
You get some results that have an effect result from having gained experience (like https://www.wowhead.com/item=130236), too, but it's likely your best filter.
found the one for spells 😃 https://www.wowhead.com/spells/live-only:on?filter=29;291;0
When checking https://bfa.wowhead.com/item=163127/smoldering-reins-of-the-teldrassil-hippogryph
Undead and Goblin are among the races. I would assume this to be an error.
isn't battle for azeroth in the open beta? why would you still make giveaways for beta keys? :D
no it isn´t in an open beta
and to my information no beta for WoW was ever an open beta
hm ok
The PTR is open to all, but the BFA beta is closed, which allows access to expansion content like the new continents
oh okay, didn't know that^^
For some reason the Characters in my profile don't update properly through my battle.net account
I have tried removing and re-adding my batttle.net-Account but the list of characters imported/updated does not fit the list of characters I actually have. It still includes deleted characters and doesn't include characters I recently created.
@shadow hare Unfortunately we have no control over what data Blizzard is sending us for that. If there's anything missing you want to add, you can do it manually vis wowhead.com/list
You'll just have to click the ⭐ to verify it manually if you add it manually. Sorry 😦
@spring harness your right its never happened.
Not especially the site, but the webhook. It is showing false informations. It is showing the zandalari allied race mount, but is explaining a total other mount.
if I had to guess the actual post was placed like that on the site, but swiftly corrected.
or, it's not the post, but the meta description, in which case it might not be corrected
not quite sure which the webhook uses though or if there's a difference in the case of Wowhead
ah, it's the meta description, according to inspect element
That part of the article was not updated from an older template before going live
I've sent out a webhook alert notifying users as to the correct source
Did this come with latest update on wowhead client? dont rmbr having this before. Accepted already but curious
Looks like it's so that can be GDPR compliant
Yeah
yea so i suppose it came with latest update then 😛
btw, looking through the bfa expansion overview and noticed a discrepancy about island expedition mounts. Qinsho's eternal hound - the one linked is the mount, not the item for acquiring the mount
please i need a key
Looks like I won the beta key on last giveaway, how do I claim it
Rip you
@fair raptor, you claim it on the Battle.net website. https://battle.net/support/article/11263
Thanks bud, but I fucked up and missed the deadline to email him my wowhead info so I'm shit outta luck.
Ah, I see, you didn't actually miss that. You didn't complete the first requirement of the giveaway. There's no screenshot posted by you in the #452336649775480852 channel, which is why you were marked as being not eligible.
Yeah I definitely fucked that one up
Hi. I'm checking the pages of "Igneous Flameling" and "Helm of the Fire Festival" and they don't appear as marked on the completion tracker even if I have them.
Small feedback: It appears I was able to enter the beta key giveaway thru the site, despite not having any of the required achievements
I don't have Legion, and they're all Artifact related achievements, so I'm pretty certain 😃
Seems like an error @ with the [npc=124514 being there, while the Invasion Boss is already listed.
@gilded quarry, as it was previously explained to me, the conditions for the giveaway are checked when selecting the winners, not when the entry is made.
@timid osprey ah, interesting. It says 'entered' next to a few of my characters but not all, so I assumed it was checking against something
Are all your characters verified profiles?
Only entries I ever have marked "Entered" are verified.
Ah, appears to be the case. Good call
I skipped all of legion, but the siren call is strong for a new expansion 😩
I hear ya.
With exception of WotLK, I've been on for the release of every xpac, only getting off when my main was max level. I know the call. 😉
I fooled around for a few hours during the free weekend. Random new server, made my first Draenei. Even with the low content and the super tiny spell book, i could feel the hooks grabbing me. Curse you Blizzard!
Well, we're getting off topic. If you want to continue, we can go to #retail-wow. 😉
Whoops. Good call. Should get back to work anyways. 👋
@gilded quarry You can enter without them, but you won't win. The system is designed to check your eligibility only if you happen to be randomly selected, but then it disregards your entry if you're not eligible and moves on. Nothing to worry about.
@regal hollow Where was that? I'll look into it.
It was in the "New Events in WoW for July 3", but it's been fixed since then.
@violet tinsel The npc page should show it as completed, not the spell that learns it: http://www.wowhead.com/npc=114543/igneous-flameling
@regal hollow okay glad it was fixed. thx! 😃
I'm not sure when, but as long as it was fixed, it doesn't matter too much. Just glad to help whenever I can :p
FYI: Our offices will be closed both July 4th and 5th in observance of the Independence Day holiday in the United States.

already mentioned times before but wowhead site sure has nice memory leak when im not logged in and even with adblocker being disabled 😅
Was 500MB 20mins ago
only got 1 tab open even
Check Chrome's task manager to make sure that's actually Wowhead that is doing that. (right click a blank area of the tab bar to access easily)
i closed wowhead tab after saying it. Instantly dropped back to 0
Logged back to inside now. was @ workplace so was logged out. Just surprised how big that memory leak is
Could been adblock but i had it disabled on wowhead tho
What you're seeing is about 10x what I get on the homepage:
i get around that much when i am logged in.
If you aren't logged in and are seeing that much memory it's likely a bad ad and the team would probably like a report of that using the Feedback -> Advertising issue (which includes a history of the ads showing for that session)
When you are logged in since you have Premium there are no ads 😉
idd, i was pretty certain, looking at the old conversations it is most likely Ads issue
Just downloaded the wowhead client, went to install it and my PC seems to think it's a trojan?
Definitely a false positive
Thanks, I figured. I just needed to hear it from someone else :)
Glad to hear it, wish you a safe and happy holiday! Please let us know if there is anything we can further assist you with 😉
@viscid cove please, refrain from posting Discord invites
ok sry
when i press links on items the normal box with the links doesn't pop up
Yo staffbois
I was wondering
Why not make a RP guide along the usual ones?
Roleplaying has been a thing since the beggining...so
Is there any way to hide europe blue tracker ? they are usually useless
Unfortunately no but you can bookmark the page http://www.wowhead.com/bluetracker=us
Okay thanks 😃
베타 하고 싶다! ㅠㅠ
Windows Defender just reported the Wowhead client as containing a trojan, Win32/Fuery.B!cl
Hey, this appears to be a false positive, we have submitted a report and you can see them at https://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=284322.2&p=4212721#p4212721
Thanks.
In the first paragraph of the "Arriving into Shadowforge City" of https://www.wowhead.com/news=285380 article, the third sentence starts off with, "A little ahead is the where the Black Anvil," but I think it should be, "A little ahead is where the Black Anvil."
Anyone here able to give me some advice/feedback about a guide I'm writing?
dont know if its helpful
but there might be two new bee colors or something in the newest build

if its useful, i would love to know
@grizzled coral hi. Send me a link and I'll take a look at it
I feel like Wowhead took a rule out of the Doctor Strange story:
They really should put the warnings at the beginning of spells.
Here's the Wowhead version:
...
Please remember, you must redeem the code within 14-days of this email or it will be forfeited.```
After clearing cookies and disabling AdBlocks, I am still getting this error with Google Chrome while using WoWHead.
Why is this happening 😮
@maiden terrace, do you have the AdBlock disabled, or just set to allow Wowhead?
Disabled.
Try accessing the site with your browser in incognito mode.
why are vulpera in the dressing room, but not sethrakk?
This man knows the deal
I remember seeing a post from Perc about why certain things do and don't show in the dressing room. I know it revolves around the way Blizzard puts them in the game but don't remember exactly what she said
basically that
they are categorized as a certain type of race allowing them to be dressed up in more clothes
Thank you Perc
Is it possible to combine all bfa reputation guides into one?
we may do an overview but we prefer the in-depth guides to be separate as you have to do different things for them all. this is how we've done it in mop, wod, and legion

Not sure what happened but suddenly wowhead password is invalid, I didn't change it. it's just no longer valid. I can login with battle.net, but I cannot change password since no password for current password works. Is there an automated reset process that can be tried that I just am not seeing. Won't fix whatever caused it to be invalid in first place but might get back to usuable state
Twice I have tried to comment on the artist corner and neither time has my comment actually shown up in the comment section. I am checking on the page of the comments where the most recent comments are showing up.
@scarlet peak If you haven't already, email me via feedback@wowhead.com and I'll set up a password for you. If you registered with Battle.net prior to this year, there was never a password set up for the account to change it. I can help remedy that.
@old dust Once you try to submit a comment, scroll down to make sure it has posted, if it has not, you'll likely see a Google CAPTCHA request at the bottom that's required for you to post the comment. Give it another try, check the above, and you should be able to post it accordingly.
I'm trying to get it so my profile on Wowhead shows my Toys following the website and i'm having issues
@neat mist I think I just replied to you via email about that.
Are there plans to have custom https://www.wowhead.com/attunement ?
Just like you can create a guide today, you'd be able to put together a list of quests, achievements and reputations, and it'd show in the same format as Legion Attunements and Pathfinder.
No, although if you load up your character on wowhead.com/list, there should be an option to "pin" the character. Doing so will add a 'completed' notification and checkmark to all tooltips, and there will be an additional completion column in search results
I am getting the 504 Gateway time-out on the site. anyone else having that issue?
Nope
Its fixed now 😛 lol
Could anyone explain how come im having some random characters being popped into my wowhead legion attument list. they are in my profile list aswell. Already deleted them as they are not my own.
it says i updated profile like 4 months ago on that char but i never look other ppl trough wowhead
If you've ever loaded someone elses profile it'll be added to your list for future reference. Once you delete them it should clear.
yea indeed it did 
That's the only way it would be added though, either manually loaded or by clicking someone's link somewhere along the way.
might clicked someones link then. Thx for clarification
np 😃
After the BFA launch, will tooltips linking to the bfa subdomain still work correctly? Looking to avoid some manual labour in a month 😃
We're using power.js for SE&L, but it seems I lied and it seems we're using the base domain and not the bfa subdomain
So my question is invalid I guess. There are some oddities like Elemental Mastery and Master of the Elements sharing the same spell ID but I'll just have to do that manually until the BFA data is rolled over to the base wowhead domain
Yeah, once BFA is merged into LIVE it should be fine. But, if not, you may need to go in and remove any db=bfa you have.
Hey and good evening, is someone who is reposnible for support online 😃 ?
replied
Not sure where to post this, but I had previously seen something about it and can't find it anymore, but I was wondering whom to talk to about getting the WoWhead premium role?
You're welcome. No problem
so
im curious about something
what is the technical difficulty behind putting the other warfront tier models on the dressing room?
because they've been previewable (is that a word?) in beta for a while now
If it's not already in the dressing room, it will most likely not be until it's live. It must have been put in the game as a different format than what the dressing room accepts.
The tease of this website is god like
@rocky acorn a more technical explanation is that Blizzard likely hasn't added the tier models to any actual in-game item yet so, while I can preview them manually, adding them to the dressing room is a more complicated task due to how it is build.
but they did add the models to in-game items 🤔
which is what I meant by them being previewable in beta
Oh, aren't those items showing up in the dressing room?
?????????????????
ok its fixed idk
Can I post a video I made recently in offtopic?
Depends on what it is...? Also we don't tend to allow self promotion, but again, depends.
anyone else keep getting BSOD when they use the battle net app?
is all the keys gone no update on winners from last week tuesday
The winners have been posted on the contest page for Week 5 for a couple days now.
By the way, thanks for the key ;)
Hi, I think there's a mistake made here http://www.wowhead.com/news=285528.5/updated-creature-models-in-the-battle-for-azeroth-pre-expansion-patch#pig - the site says that Mr Wiggles uses this model in BFA, but he actually uses https://media.mmo-champion.com/images/news/2018/january/BabyPig003.jpg
There is a mistake on the map. Mark show incorrect place.
Yeah I reported that last week. Unfortunately they use the data from Blizzard and can't change it.
odd
I thought they used data from wowhead client lol
ohhh
I guess it could be the ingame world boss map
in which case it's probably just showing a random spawn point that blizzard had picked to place the boss icon at back when it was still random
Yeah, can't change that unfortunately. That's why I added the note just below the map that says the correct location.
is this the place to ask about a 503 service unavailable error when trying to access the site?
We just became aware if this and it's already being worked on. Sorry, I'm sure our operations team will get it resolved ASAP.
ah, no worries then!
wowhead down?
Yea wowhead's down
seems to be back
PRofiler seems to be dead right now
@vagrant charm Do you have an example? Seems okay on my end.
I can check again after food, but when I tried to look at my paladin, Mihkael-Alexstrasza, it was just loading a blank pages with header and footer only. Even after waiting 10 mins.
What region?
NA
Showing up okay for me: http://www.wowhead.com/list=66060516/us-alexstrasza-mihkael -- might be a temporary issue you had earlier, or you might need to change cache. If that doesn't work, I'd start looking at your browser extensions.
Odd even on WiFi and network only on my phone it is not working.
Ugh, cell phones... can you try clearing your cookies on it?
Again, I'd really insist taking a check at that pig model, I've seen a fair few people complaining on r/wow and the WoWhead comment section for that article, as they think Mr Wiggles will be turning into http://wow.zamimg.com/uploads/screenshots/normal/696015.jpg
It might seem an odd thing for me to insist on, but I dislike how Blizzard artists are getting blame for the Pig model...when the one Mr Wiggles is getting is entirely different
I fixed the link a few hours ago. Issue is still actual?
Yes @crude urchin
Should be fixed now. New image added to the post.
Thanks! Just didn't want people panicking over Mr Wiggles having quite the drastic change 😅
Greetings
Has anyone had any issues recently with tooltips?
on a lot of the BFA coverage I sometimes get broken tooltips in that they show "No response from server :("
for example on the newest news article https://www.wowhead.com/news=285346/battle-for-azeroth-8-0-pre-patch-coming-july-17th when mousing over the Biting Frostshard Core in the Collection updates section I get that result
this error shows on all of the items under the collection updates section
but spell tooltips work fine further up in the same posts
I've cleared cache and cookies, have dug around premium options wondering maybe something there broke them but i haven't been able to find a solution
this is on google chrome, my internet does not exhibit any issues so I've ruled that out as the cause
same issue on microsoft's edge browser
there's no ad blocking or script blocking on either chrome or edge (considering i have no need for it as a premium user)
EDIT: On further inspection - most new links or BFA links have broken tooltips
* The Raid Mount is given to a random member of the raid who does not already have the mount.
* This person is currently NOT able to trade it. For guilds who are selling these mounts, it's important to make sure that every person in the raid already owns the mount.```
Where did you guys get bullet point #2 from? That's not true / not how it works on live. You can certainly trade the Argus and Gul'dan mount drops on personal loot on live, have done it several times now. [Edit: article for reference <http://www.wowhead.com/news=285346/battle-for-azeroth-8-0-pre-patch-coming-july-17th?webhook/battle-for-azeroth-8-0-pre-patch-coming-july-17th> ]
Oh, aren't those items showing up in the dressing room?```
they show up, but with the wrong model
@iron schooner thanks for bringing it to our attention, we are working on a fix
awesome, thanks for the quick response ^_^
@iron schooner should now be fixed
yes, thank you!
@rocky acorn can you provide me the link to one ofthe items that has the wrong appearance so our devs can investigate?
New build on beta with damage tuning. Is there thread with changes?
@halcyon summit not yet
sad
it wasn't a traditional build with changes, it was done via hotfixes
our ⛏ team is working on it, but no ETA, sadly
hmm but my beta received 40mb update
yea, but that didn't contain any new spell data, the values were changed via a hotfix
and build changed to 27075. Oh ok
Hotfixes are more complicated to document since they're server side, they're not part of the game data.
oh hey, i processed hotfix for beta earlier, anything/ i should verify? i've only checked training of niuzao for brewmaster monk
Hi guys can I ask u which set of bosses is up for this week in Assualt on Violet Hold ??
@potent bone https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1o9dhf1b0qQKWveECzZyRPsOCiz4Zl36OUb-PwAIYo7A/
For further questions about the game you should ask in the #retail-wow channel
thanks
Can I get the link of those news about the pet that goes with you only if you have 5m gold?
Tyvm
Wait, wasnt there another article featuring a parrot that doesnt come with you unless you have a lot of gold?
@north vault
That was it, thank you
Hi! How can I get in touch with djriff (author of the shadow priest guide) over discord? He should update the guide before pre-patch - or someone could get hurt 😄
did you check the bfa-prepatch guide?
im referring to that guide
djriff is listing mastery as the worst stat coming patch 8.0, whoch it sure isn't. there was a change pushed about a week ago, that made it probably the best stat.
hence the thing about getting hurt. someone might sell all mastery gear on wednesday based on that guide
thanks for the feedback, we will relay it to the team
@proper hornet what changes?
Hi @proud chasm According to http://bfa.wowhead.com/spell=77486/mastery:-madness, mastery is a flat damage increase (as of Jul 06), as it increaes the damage of all our abilities except Mind Bender - but a lot cheaper than Versatility, which does essentially the same. The guide (http://www.wowhead.com/shadow-priest-stat-priority-guide ) states 'Intellect > Haste > Critical Strike > Versatility >> Mastery' and that's what startled me about the creation date of the guide. Haste will probably still be better than Mastery (especially in multitarget encounters) but I would question the value of Crit and Versatility compared to Mastery.
Increases the damage of your Shadow Word: Pain, Vampiric Touch, Shadow Word: VoidShadow Word: VoidMind Blast, Mind Flay, Mind Sear, Void Eruption, and Void Bolt by 10.0%.
@proper hornet ok, thanks. I think that it may be said mastery is so low due to its nerf (20% base to 9.6%). Anyway, every build for now must be considered as unsure, as everything may change in a day or two due to hotfixes etc.
@proper hornet as you can see here: https://github.com/seanpeters86/bfa-shadow-priest/tree/master/stats Mastery isn't terrible, but it is still basically tied with versatility.
and vers gives def
@crystal olive Thx for the repo, I'll take a look into it. Did you publish those results over at H2P? Because I couldn't find anything there.
On the frost mage pre patch guide, looks to be a typo :
Mirror image is list 2 times, should it be Rune of power?
@proper hornet they are pinned at bfa-shadow iirc
Hey guys, so are russian "community class discords" cooperate with wowhead or blizzard? asking because some discord (rogue one) just launched a russian gold-selling website promotion. "Ru Mythic keys" server is also doing it, but it is not listed on wowhead i believe, but is being promoted on every other class discord, but whatever.
We're not affiliated, don't know anything about it.
I've removed the link. Thank you
this is bothering me for so long, no one mentioned it? arms icon is actually assa
here too
To clarify what @dreamy pivot said, currently it seems the icon for Arms Warriors has this style attribute on it for some bizarre reason:
background-image: url("//wow.zamimg.com/images/wow/icons/tiny/ability_rogue_eviscerate.gif");
https://www.wowhead.com/spell=196819/eviscerate
<a href="/talent-calc/warrior/arms" class="tinyicon" style="background-image: url("//wow.zamimg.com/images/wow/icons/tiny/ability_rogue_eviscerate.gif");"><span>Arms</span>
Hilariously, Assassination Rogue is also wrong, as it uses https://www.wowhead.com/spell=53/backstab for the icon, which is a Subtlety ability.
hey, i also noticed that drop-down menu for disc priest, balance, resto dru and all hunter specs show different icon than it shows in "Specialization" in a talent calculator here
if someone mind fixing it 😄
We'll make a note to look into fixing it but the accuracy and explanations of our guides and pre-patch database pages is taking priority
Going to give the new shirt designs as give aways?
It's not out of the question, but we don't actually have any inventory of it, Design By Humans handles all that, we just get a royalty, so if we did a giveaway we'd be buying it just like everyone else.
Fair enough, though the Sylvanas and Anduin one look hilarious
The Storm, Earth & Lava link on the elemental guide http://www.wowhead.com/elemental-shaman-guide links to http://www.wowhead.com/Stormearthandlava.com, not http://www.stormearthandlava.com/
Probably already suggested but it would be great if we could identify our faction and region in WoWhead discord. Even those H/A double agents 😃
or would that mess up with prem roles?
@verbal sky There are roles you can added for each faction and region which sort of allows you to do that. I don't think individual ranks and associated colors are going to be happening for something that's just 'vanity'.
yea i know we had that function already. I suppose i could add myself as EU H/A but then id get pinged which is rip 😛
@teal dragon has the giveaway been claimed. It's been well over 12 hours.
No it hasn't, they still have another hour left...
2:46 am posted, it's currently 1:37pm...
Are odd redirects to ptr.wowhead.com a known issue, or do you want them reported?
the site is not fully transitioned yet, would hold off for now
& Its not like world is ending if sas is sleeping. 
Getting an error from wowhead looter when I DE something. I've posted the LUA error report on the wowhead forum http://www.wowhead.com/forums&topic=254531.20&p=4218242#p4218242
Your new article includes no trait recommendations, which are the primary thing that one needs to select to improve the leveling process that has changed since 8.0. It includes only descriptions of those traits
@vernal rune azerite traits don’t really help you level. They provide tiny boosts
And you get gear at high levels
There really isn’t a best choice for most azerite traits. It’s what you want
I meant from 1-110.
Plenty of people doing 1-110 as BFA prep. At the very least the old 1-110 trait recommendations could be useful .
What traits? You mean talents?
