Hey @tawny blade - did you notice that Blizz has the dates wrong on the map for launch times? 😛

#

August 13th is a Monday, not a Tuesday like they say it is - just thought I'd point it out for you

tawny blade
#

I think it's accurate

#

Oh

#

I see what you mean

#

It should be Monday 13th / Tuesday 14th

arctic cairn
#

Exactly

tawny blade
#

But it's accurate that yep, the US can play a day in advance

arctic cairn
#

That's awesome

gleaming tendon
#

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

gleaming tendon
#

Hmm

#

Okay Thx

arctic cairn
#

Blizzard has added a countdown to their site 😃

plucky fractal
#

@arctic cairn oh? Wehre at?

arctic cairn
#

And Blizz has updated with the correct days 😃

plucky fractal
#

Cheers!

scarlet peak
#

Don't fix that typo, ❤

#

we all need to love on beta servers more

arctic cairn
#

What was the typo @scarlet peak?

#

It appears a typo has been fixed because I don't see any now and am disappointed lol

scarlet peak
#

still there

arctic cairn
#

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 😃

teal dragon
#

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.

arctic cairn
#

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!!

wind arrow
#

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.

teal dragon
#

You mean typo? not type? 😛

#

You typo'd the word typo? 😄

arctic cairn
#

lol

plucky fractal
#

Im guessing the other one is meant to be the Voidtalon from WoD?

arctic cairn
#

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

Hey guys, where did the bfa version of wowhead go?

viscid heart
#

Ah thank you 😃

Anyone else having issues accessing the site

weary furnace
#

Someone get WoWHead a bucket, stat!

teal dragon
#

Yes, we're working on it.

#

Our bucket has tipped over.

tranquil sorrel
#

yeah it just happened. I'll buy some celery for the hamsters!

blissful cape
#

who stole the bucket?

haughty canopy
#

interestingly enough it's only the main page that is affected... using links from latest news seems to work

blissful cape
#

the bucket is no longer tipped over

teal dragon
#

Yeah see, there are many buckets, so most everything was fine, but... not the main bucket. 😛

novel drum
#

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?

teal dragon
#

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.

novel drum
#

Fair enough

arctic cairn
#

Mythice - that a new difficulty we don't know about? 😛

weary furnace
#

Yeah, Mythice and Mythfire

arctic cairn
#

Hmmm - sounds interesting

#

And it's fixed - oh come on! lol 😛

amber talon
#

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...

stoic acorn

Wtf’s an orange

plucky fractal

Wowhead's Premium subscription

burnt pawn
#

Oh nice can I have an orange then

plucky fractal

No.

rare tulip
#

Please can you update the bfa talent tree after the last build? Still not yet updated

crystal olive
#

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!

rare tulip
#

Ok thanks 😃

warm abyss
#

How do u guys showcase mounts like this?

teal dragon
#

@junior moon does that himself. 😃

warm abyss
#

Well he’s doing a very good job!

arctic cairn
tiny ether
#

some people aren't trying, but some are giving it a run

distant granite
#

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?

tawny blade
#

Hey, we have removed them

distant granite
#

👍

arctic cairn
#

For the WoW economy article - it should be 42nd not 42st edition 😃

heavy meadow
#

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?

heavy meadow
#

It would help with theorycrafting/running numbers for people who aren't in the beta.

glossy remnant
#

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

heavy meadow
#

That makes sense, but it doesn't hurt to ask again. :)

hardy bloom
#

Theres a typo in the new article

#

it says 4 Tortollan Seekers WQs but its Champion of Azeroth WQS

dusk trail
#

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??

timid osprey
dusk trail
#

The Timers been up since the Global Release Map was announced?

timid osprey
#

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.

lucid bobcat
#

Does anyone know where this NPC is located ? http://www.wowhead.com/npc=84547/watcher

timid osprey
#

I don't think it's anywhere. I think that was just a placeholder NPC, but if not, probably the DH intro chain.

wintry pivot
#

In the Dressing Room animations list, what're the ones with 'WA' at the start? Noticed they're not available for all races

terse saddle
#

I think it stands for Walking Animation?

tardy trellis
#

How to I view BFA armor in the dressing room?

teal dragon
tardy trellis
#

Ahh k nvm i was looking at sets and not individual armor. Thanks tho

arctic cairn
#

Oh boy - here we go with the rerolls

#

Oh no...

#

Phew lol

uneven crow
#

can i give some feedback about the dressing room here or do i have to do that on the wowhead site?

teal dragon
#

You're welcome to write it here, it'll be read eventually. 😃

halcyon summit
#

😥

uneven crow
#

it might be a known bug already but when viewing armor pieces with 3D elements on it they bug out on a female Zandalari

halcyon summit
#

they dont fix 3d elements since legion beta

uneven crow
#

what do you mean? 🤔

halcyon summit
#

i mean this

uneven crow
#

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 😛

halcyon summit
#

oh my bad

teal dragon
#

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.

uneven crow
teal dragon
#

This doesn't look like the screenshot, you sure it's the right link?

uneven crow
#

i did change the gear around abit, but the glove model i mentioned is the same

#

i can change it back if you want?

teal dragon
#

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 😃

dusk trail
#

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...

No - you're supposed to message Sas148, he won't reach out to you

sly prairie

nice, so just wait then, thanks for reply @arctic cairn

arctic cairn

If you sent him a message, yes. He'll get back to you as soon as he can.

Greetings - Does anyone know how to complete the Achievement "A Picture is Worth 1000 Words - View Item results in Gallery mode." ?!?

teal dragon
#

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.

So happy for you @crystal olive 😉

#

Now I just've to put some money on my 2nd bank account so I can login as Premium 😃

timid osprey
#

I may have just missed it, but is there a comparison tool to see what gear looks like now compared to after the squish?

regal hollow
#

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.

tawny blade
#

If you go to the bfa.wowhead.com version of the page you will see the squished stats and ilvl

regal hollow
#

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!

wet isle
#

More or less ilvl 1000 is equivalent to 265 on the beta.

timid osprey
#

o? Isn't that higher than what's dropped for 116 quests?

dire summit
#

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

arctic cairn
#

You should get an email, yes. If you haven't received one, email feedback@wowhead.com and Sas will take care of you.

@sharp jay No disrespect, but there are multiple site giveaways going on... Be specific.

sharp jay
#

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 😃

teal dragon
#

The odds were about 1 in 10,000 for that one.

wow, that are a lot of ppl.

teal dragon

2 days ago? 😛

languid holly

oops i meant july haha 😛

#

doubt its gonna be the day before 4th july :p

hardy bloom

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.

timid osprey
#

@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

plucky fractal
#

@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.

timid osprey
#

@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. 😃

verbal sky
#

Yea, thanks for heads up. I was wondering how im going to do that aswell without subbing 😛

normal narwhal
#

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?

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

regal hollow
#

1:18PM, and now at 8:37PM my time

#

So can confirm double posted

arctic cairn
#

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 😦

crude urchin
#

the confirmation was added to the original post

#

It's not double post

glossy remnant
#

👍🏼

Well, double post by the bot then.

#

If I change my WoWhead username, will it be changed here as well?

arctic cairn
#

No, you can PM @teal dragon to request that on here

hoary turret
#

Heya, I won a key and I'm just wondering how that works

arctic cairn
#

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

stoic acorn
arctic cairn
#

No, it's not that @stoic acorn We don't have the perms to change our nickname here

glossy remnant
#

No but you can change your discord name

arctic cairn
#

That doesn't change your nickname here though

#

If it's already been changed that is and with premium, it is

glossy remnant
#

It does. It changes your name in every discord server you are on unless you have a specific nickname in that server

arctic cairn
#

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

glossy remnant
#

All I’m saying is that he could have changed both himself

#

Like I just did

stoic acorn
#

Not if server nickname changing is disabled

arctic cairn
#

^^^^^^^

#

Which it is

glossy remnant
#

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

arctic cairn
#

That's because you're a regular member. You have the ability to do that. Sas has that ability turned off for premium users

glossy remnant
#

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

arctic cairn
#

I'm just going to stop before this just goes back and forth...

vale hedge
#

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.

arctic cairn
#

You're welcome. You would need to PM him yes 😃

vale hedge
#

Ok, thanks.

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

arctic cairn
#

No - the giveaway states that if you don't have a sub, you won't be able to enter.

timid osprey
#

Oh, wow, I'm blind, completely last line in the criteria. ^^'

#

Sorry about that, @arctic cairn.

arctic cairn
#

It's alright

jovial nest
#

is there a plan to give everyone with twitch sub, premium on wowhead/Zam, if not put it on the list to discuss 😉

arctic cairn
#

Twitch and wowhead are separate entities. I don't see how that could even work.

sharp jay
#

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.

teal dragon
#

@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.

raw solstice
#

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.

plucky fractal
#

@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.

raw solstice
#

Yeah I get that but wanted to inform its no longer accurate.

karmic dome
#

@raw solstice Fixed 😃

raw solstice
#

Nice ^-^

plucky fractal
#

@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.

verbal sky
#

So Beta pics were acceptable as screenshot contribution aswell right? @plucky fractal

plucky fractal
#

Correct.

verbal sky
#

Cheers, seems like i need to DL some ID addons + WL client for Beta then 😉

raw solstice
#

@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.

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.

tawny blade
#

@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.

There is a news post and an article, both are separated

the news post isn't particularly clear about the fact that those two are the ones from the latest build

who dont you guys do an app for phone?

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.

true lintel
#

@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..

timid osprey
#

@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.

fast cedar
#

If you had won, you would have a ping, even if the message had been deleted.

true lintel
#

nod.. just a curiosity thing 😃

teal dragon
#

@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.

timid osprey
#

@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)

teal dragon
#

Hmm, thought we had fixed that, or maybe a ticket is just pending a fix.

#

Ah I think it's your resolution then

dim imp
#

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.

crude urchin
#

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.

teal dragon
#

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.

dim imp
#

Alright, thanks for letting me know. Wasn't sure if anything went wrong haha.

proud fox
#

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?

elfin tapir
#

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.

frosty radish
#

how do u find out if u won a cdkey i checked website

plucky fractal
#

@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.

Oh, I'm getting a 500 error on the website. 😮

And it's gone. xD

noble mortar
#

I won key through the website and i'm having issue to redeem it, just says an error has occured.

rancid copper
#

Omg I'm also a beta winner :o

teal dragon
#

It's not public yet... and I'm genuinely surprised you noticed it that quickly. lol

crystal olive
#

Hastyboi trying to see contests before they are annouced 😛

teal dragon
#

I've removed it from being displayed on that page. Expect a post later today. 😃

timid osprey
#

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. ^^'

teal dragon
#

It's no big deal, just funny is all 😉

timid osprey
#

Can I have a pin for pointing it out? xD

teal dragon
#

😛 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.

timid osprey
#

I can help you with automating it. 😮

teal dragon
#

It is automated. 😛 It's just slow, because it's old and not worth fixing. It works, that's what matters. zzz

timid osprey
#

Good night! 😄

timid osprey
#

The markup tags available in the "Links" modal of each page, those should work anywhere on Wowhead, right?

frank lake
#

Hey. Just WOn a Beta Key at the Giveaway but when i try to activate it theres just "An error accured" Any Support here?

plucky fractal
#

@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.

frank lake
#

Ok, ty for the quick answer !

grand lily
#

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?

frank lake
#

Well **** me then. Do i have a US Key too?

grand lily
#

propably yes 😃

#

i only hope i get valid UE keys insted nothing...

#

EU*

viscid heart
#

the beta servers are the same for both

#

where do you enter it?

grand lily
#

on my account

#

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...

timid osprey
#

Odd, I don't play EU, but I can log into EU and see my US account info. :S

grand lily
#

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

noble mortar
#

the accounts should be connected between us and EU

#

And I can't redeem mine either, as it just pops error message to me

grand lily
#

that's the problem

timid osprey
#

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

noble mortar
#

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

arctic cairn
#

You may have already had it if you're receiving an error and have it available for download.

noble mortar
#

yeah, thats what i'm hoping for

grand lily
#

yes i just checked there is a option in lancher for me

timid osprey
#

I've heard from a few people they magically had the Beta already without having received any notice.

arctic cairn
#

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

rancid copper
#

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).

arctic cairn
#

I got my email 5 days after seeing the invite so it can take a bit

grand lily
#

ok even witha error i got beta BFA is availble in launcher now so best luck to others :0

timid osprey
#

@rancid copper, no, the Beta is only an option to install if it's been added to your account.

rancid copper
#

Oh, that's weird. I had it a few days ago :/ I wouldn't have redeemed my key if I knew that.

timid osprey
#

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.

arctic cairn
#

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

noble mortar
#

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

timid osprey
#

@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:

tawny blade
#

We’re bad with math

#

Fixing

timid osprey
#

Yeah, shouldn't it be "from xyz to rts"?

manic dagger
#

it is almost as if that post was ready to go before the announcement 🤔

timid osprey
#

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

tawny blade
#

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.

scenic panther
#

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

tawny blade
#

we've been doing some updates to it for ptr

timid osprey
#

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.

karmic dome
#

@timid osprey which "link" did you try to use?

timid osprey
#

The markup links, pulled from the respective Wowhead pages. [event=327] and [event=201] to be precise.

karmic dome
#

They do work, post your message and then link it here in case it's not working!

timid osprey
#

It's why I originally asked.

karmic dome
#

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]

timid osprey
#

Yeah, those work, but if the markups are disabled it seems odd to allow them to be pulled from the pages. jmo

karmic dome
#

The tooltips aren't loading either. Someone will look into this sooner or later 😃

timid osprey
#

It seems to be working, link and tooltip.

teal dragon
#

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.

timid osprey
#

Odd that the markup links would be available to non-staff, then. :S

#

But, hey, I got the answer. xD

teal dragon
#

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

timid osprey
#

I'll be happy to join the team as a developer whenever y'all want. 😉

dusky snow
#

Is this the place to also report issues with the wowhead client?

crude urchin
#

Yes

#

But we could ask you to provide the logs to us. In that case, email would be more convenient way ;)

dusky snow
#

I don't see anything in chat history...just didn't want to repeat

#

ah ok

crude urchin
#

What's the issue with Wowhead Client you experience?

dusky snow
#

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.

crude urchin
#

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.

Example please?

#

@small crypt how about now?

small crypt
#

I'm seeing live talents now, thanks! 😃

teal dragon
#

yvw, the guide was set to the ptr database, probably accidently, when the pre-patch got put on ptr that changed the talents.

small crypt
#

Ahhh that makes sense. I'll let you know if I run into any others that are like that

teal dragon
#

Sure. Though in a few weeks they'll all be bfa anyhow. 😉

its about titanhacks

arctic cairn

What does that have to do with Wowhead?

pure gust

i wanted to know iff its legit becaus he said he had some wow hacks as well

arctic cairn

Considering hacks are against the ToS, you won't and will NEVER receive support for such activity

#

from here anyway

pure gust
#

i don't want hack but he came to me in a wisper

arctic cairn
#

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.

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 ^^

terse saddle
#

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

teal dragon
#

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.

terse saddle
#

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)"

#

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

main dome
#

I don't see that option

crude urchin
#

just type it in address bar and press Enter

main dome
#

I did and there are a lot of options but none matches the one you linked

crude urchin
#

it seems like option has gone. Could you try using another web browser?

main dome
#

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

Fixed a number of leveling guides pointing to PTR versions of spells, not live

#

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

tawny blade
#

@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

viscid heart
#

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

@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.

#

Query Killer ?

verbal sky

Wee it works again

#

back to beta

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.

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?

no, its all pages on wowhead

#

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?

orchid citrus
#

yeahhh that is probably gonna get fixed asap

tawny blade
#

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

stone wren
#

The first page has no references for rep yes, but by specific class is where the erroneous entry is

#

Standard google searches still link to these news pages, so it might be better to just archive the pages

tawny blade
#

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

could you try to turn off BetterTwitchTV extension and disable hardware acceleration in a browser's settings?

timid osprey
#

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)".

timid osprey
#

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". 😉

arctic cairn
#

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

timid osprey
#

Yeah, except Privacy Badger isn't supposed to block XHR like that. xD

arctic cairn
#

What its supposed to do and what it does are 2 different things.

timid osprey
#

True. Besides, trying to solve it helped me improve my JSON formatter userscript. xD

arctic cairn
#

That's a plus lol

hardy bloom
#

how did you guys complete "Of Myths and Legends" on the beta?

#

i get there and lucille is phased out

torpid bane
#

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.

teal dragon
#

@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.

torpid bane
#

@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...

teal dragon
#

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?

torpid bane
#

It depends but the second a video add triggers, I noticed it goes slower...

teal dragon
#

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. ?

bitter flower
#

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

torpid bane
#

@teal dragon Yes of course! There are so many adds on most websites, it's pollution.

teal dragon
#

@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?

torpid bane
#

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.

teal dragon
#

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.

plucky fractal
#

Sounds like a good deal, tbh^

teal dragon
#

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.

torpid bane
#

I'll think about it. Thanks for the offer. 😃

hardy bloom
#

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.

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 ):

plucky fractal
#

@valid ember What's your Wowhead username?

valid ember
#

msronzio

timid osprey
#

@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.

valid ember
#

i don't have anything there, the email is current and shows notifications on my phone.
thanks anyway

plucky fractal
#

@valid ember Send a PM to Sas148 here on Discord and he'll look into it for you.

valid ember
#

thank you!

teal dragon
#

@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.

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.

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

feral light
#

hm ok

tawny blade

The PTR is open to all, but the BFA beta is closed, which allows access to expansion content like the new continents

#

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.

teal dragon
#

@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 😦

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.

coarse lion
#

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

tawny blade
#

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

#

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.

#

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 😃

regal hollow
#

Seems like an error @ with the [npc=124514 being there, while the Invasion Boss is already listed.

timid osprey
#

@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.

gilded quarry
#

@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

timid osprey
#

Are all your characters verified profiles?

#

Only entries I ever have marked "Entered" are verified.

gilded quarry
#

Ah, appears to be the case. Good call

#

I skipped all of legion, but the siren call is strong for a new expansion 😩

timid osprey
#

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. 😉

gilded quarry
#

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. 😉

gilded quarry
#

Whoops. Good call. Should get back to work anyways. 👋

teal dragon
#

@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.

regal hollow
#

It was in the "New Events in WoW for July 3", but it's been fixed since then.

teal dragon

@regal hollow okay glad it was fixed. thx! 😃

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

stoic acorn
verbal sky
#

i get around that much when i am logged in.

stoic acorn
#

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

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

@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.

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.

tawny blade
#

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

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.

That's the only way it would be added though, either manually loaded or by clicking someone's link somewhere along the way.

After the BFA launch, will tooltips linking to the bfa subdomain still work correctly? Looking to avoid some manual labour in a month 😃

teal dragon
#

On what content are these tooltips being made?

#

@plucky fractal

plucky fractal
#

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

teal dragon
#

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.

#

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

arctic cairn
#

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.

north vault
#

The tease of this website is god like

crystal olive
#

@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.

rocky acorn
#

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?

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

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 :("

#

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

@iron schooner thanks for bringing it to our attention, we are working on a fix

iron schooner
#

awesome, thanks for the quick response ^_^

tawny blade
#

@iron schooner should now be fixed

iron schooner
#

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?

halcyon summit
#

New build on beta with damage tuning. Is there thread with changes?

humble delta
#

@halcyon summit not yet

halcyon summit
#

sad

crystal olive
#

it wasn't a traditional build with changes, it was done via hotfixes

#

our ⛏ team is working on it, but no ETA, sadly

halcyon summit
#

hmm but my beta received 40mb update

crystal olive
#

yea, but that didn't contain any new spell data, the values were changed via a hotfix

halcyon summit
#

and build changed to 27075. Oh ok

teal dragon
#

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! 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 😄

viscid heart
#

did you check the bfa-prepatch guide?

proper hornet
#

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

tawny blade
#

thanks for the feedback, we will relay it to the team

proud chasm
#

@proper hornet what changes?

proper hornet
#

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.

proud chasm
#

@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.

@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.

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

dreamy pivot
#

this is bothering me for so long, no one mentioned it? arms icon is actually assa

stoic acorn
#

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(&quot;//wow.zamimg.com/images/wow/icons/tiny/ability_rogue_eviscerate.gif&quot;);"><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.

dreamy pivot
#

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 😄

tawny blade
#

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

old tapir
#

Going to give the new shirt designs as give aways?

teal dragon
#

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.

old tapir
#

Fair enough, though the Sylvanas and Anduin one look hilarious

plucky fractal
rich wyvern
#

Fixed.

#

Thanks for the heads up

verbal sky
#

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?

plucky fractal
#

@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'.

verbal sky
#

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?

tawny blade
#

the site is not fully transitioned yet, would hold off for now

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

hardy bloom
#

@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

vernal rune
#

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 .

hardy bloom
#

What traits? You mean talents?
