Burning Crusade Population Density Adjustments Incoming Over the last couple of days, we’ve seen a lot of feedback from players that in many cases, there are too many others nearby when you’re questing or doing gathering professions in the open world. Today, we’ve developed some configuration changes that should hopefully reduce the congestion while retaining the feeling that the world is still well-populated. Those changes will go live during our currently scheduled realm restarts. We’ll continue to keep a close eye on this going forward, and we’ll adjust things further if necessary. Thank you!

Grouping Fixes in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary For the last 24 hours, we’ve been aware of and working to solve multiple issues affecting players who form parties intending to play on the same layer together. Today, we deployed some changes that we think helped, and we’re continuing to look at every report we receive to hopefully find more adjustments or fixes that we can make. There is one issue in particular that we want to call out: If you don’t see your party after walking through the Dark Portal, we strongly recommend that you stay on one side of the portal and do not continually walk back-and-forth through the portal. We’ve noticed players doing this and it appears to make you increasingly unlikely to get onto the same layer! We’re developing a fix for this particular issue and we expect to implement it next week, after thorough testing. Thank you very much for your feedback, and we hope you're enjoying your adventures in Outland!

As some of you in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary have already noticed, we've made a few adjustments, just in time for launch: - Relaxed crowd control immunity and movement speed for creatures ("anti-boosting measures") to be more forgiving for groups - Increased the swing range ("hitbox") for Tauren back to its original size - Timed with today's launch, adjusted the gold cost of PvP gear purchased from Outland Factions to balance it appropriately with PvP gear acquired with Honor Points Thank you for all the feedback, and we hope you're 'prepared' to enter the Dark Portal today!

Riding Skill Bug Fix in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary Earlier this week, we identified a bug in the Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary pre-patch which incorrectly granted the 150 Epic riding skill to some player-characters. Purchasing Journeyman Riding is an important milestone in each character’s journey, and this milestone deserves to be preserved. To address this, we will remove the incorrectly-granted riding skill from player-characters who were identified as affected by this bug, and we’ll revert their riding skill to 75. The fix-up will occur during next week's scheduled weekly maintenance. Until then, for affected players: enjoy the next few days racing around Azeroth!

Thank you for all the reports about the low framerate issue related to pet auto-cast abilities in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary. We’ve identified the issue and we’re preparing a fix for it, which will require an update to the WoW client. New client builds are a bit trickier to deploy, and once deployed, the fix will take effect only after you next restart the game. Until then, the following workarounds may provide some relief: - The issue will happen less frequently if you do not macro pet abilities or /petattack into frequently-cast spells - If the low framerate occurs, you should be able to restore your FPS by toggling auto-cast off and then on again for your pet spells - If issues persist, a /reload or relog should get you back into a good state We’ll get the new client out as quickly as we can. Thank you again!

With a hotfix earlier today in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary, we corrected the level of Riding skill for boosted characters who did not receive Riding correctly. Upon completing the first boost quest "A New Beginning", boosted characters should now automatically receive Apprentice Riding. If your character was affected by this bug and has completed that quest, please log out and back into WoW. Although we are confident in this fix, we will continue to investigate any cases where Riding has not being granted properly. Thank you for your reports!

Thank you for all of the feedback thus far on Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary! We've been fixing bugs as they pop up. Today, we: - Fixed an issue where Blackrock Spire only allowed 5 players to enter - Fixed a bug preventing the quest “The First and Last” from starting for eligible players - Cleansed Songflowers now apply their buff to the clicking player, not the player’s target - Paladins should now be able to learn Consecration from their trainer as intended - Shamans who were unable to learn Two-Handed Maces and Two-Handed Axes from the weapon trainer should again be able to As a reminder, you can find our latest updates like this in our regularly-updated Hotfixes thread: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/22278…

Honor Adjusted in Burning Crusade Pre-Patch We just made a change to introduce (early) the Horde Warbringer and Alliance Brigadier General NPCs to Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary pre-patch. During pre-patch, they will offer a repeatable quest to earn bonus Honor for completing battlegrounds. We've also cranked up the temporary Honor increase so that players are earning Honor faster. Thank you for your feedback, and happy hunting. More details here: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/22283…

Honor Adjustments Incoming We’ve reviewed the rate of Honor acquisition in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary's pre-patch and decided to make some adjustments to help players acquire gear faster. We’re going to do these changes via hotfix in the next day or so, and until then, we suggest you hold onto your Honor. Thank you very much for all of your feedback on this.

Greetings! As a reminder, in preparation for the launch of the Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary pre-patch, we've brought down all non-MoP Classic realms for maintenance, starting with NA realms at 3:00 p.m. PST. The maintenance period for EU will begin at 06:00 CET. This includes all Anniversary, Classic Era, Hardcore, and Season of Discovery realms. While all Anniversary realms will be down for the full 24 hours, we expect non-Anniversary realms to come back up from maintenance sooner, and MoP Classic realms will see their usual brief weekly maintenance times.

Thank you for your feedback on the final Honor ranking in Classic Anniversary. We have a passion for battling for the highest ranking right to the end. So we dug into our options, and we’ve found a way to award updated Ranks one more time. This will include Honor gained in the current week, which ends when we take realms offline early next week to begin deploying the Burning Crusade Anniversary pre-patch. When you log into pre-patch next week, you’ll receive your final Honor Rank for Classic Anniversary.
