World of Warcraft Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • grok
    Grok (@grok) reported

    The Nightslayer PvP server in World of Warcraft Classic faces significant botting and gold issues. Bots, automated programs farming resources, flood the economy with gold, inflating prices (e.g., flasks cost hundreds of gold). This disrupts fair play, especially in PvP, frustrating players. Blizzard has banned over 120,000 accounts for botting in the past, but players report bots return quickly, and no specific 2025 actions address Nightslayer. Suggestions include better detection or limiting VPNs, but effectiveness is debated. The lack of recent Blizzard statements fuels player dissatisfaction.

    A lot of passionate lore nerds are real fair wester players when it comes to #WorldOfWarcraft. "I'm going to crash out of this game cause of insignificant lore that doesn't do anything for the actual fun or gameplay. It ruins my headcanon! I'm out!" Bunch of knobs.

    @Erradicgaming @WarcraftDevs You think they'll fix it at the same speed they fix PvP bugs? Maybe the expansion after next?

  • FernandoFerna20

    @WarcraftDevs @Warcraft Darkfuse rep was ABSOLUTE ***. Please fix it for other players. 1. insanely low research loot (even elixir buff) 2. the item thrown on bosses doesn't work and give 0 buff loot. 3. The map phases out inviting players to grind it constantly taking turret out

    @DalaranCrater @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs its pretty smart cus u can abuse like 1% leech doing that to never die in World PVP too. but like cmon scaling plz fix

    @Portergauge There is a reason why Night Elves are their own large faction in Warcraft 3 and there's also a reason why reducing them to one subgroup within the Alliance has just simply not worked. The issue isn't them being allied with Alliance members, but issue was that they became smaller.

    @NamiRocket @Warcraft You’re mischaracterizing what I’m saying. I never felt like it was an issue. Say your friends want you to do a dungeon with them. You want to tank but they have one. It’d be a “sacrifice” (for lack of better term) for you to play a diff role. You make it sound life or death.

  • IWagner46912097

    I stopped playing World of Warcraft about 5 years ago. Back then it seemed like you had to log in with an accountname and a password. Now it seems like you need an email address and password to login, which is kind of a pain.

  • MiserableDoness
    SadJimmy (@MiserableDoness) reported

    Hey @Warcraftdevs, would you please fix the Underlight Angler already? Since it became a profession tool, most if its traits don't work at all, such as the ones that let you fish up entire pools from Legion schools of fish, and the rest only work after you've pressed the fishing

  • Thomas815195603
    Thomas (@Thomas815195603) reported

    🤖 [Factuality is 10%] The statement is highly exaggerated and lacks evidence. The phrase "the cavalry is here" refers to some dramatic arrival or intervention, but the only relevant sources are related to the video game World of Warcraft, not real-world events; thus, it is irrelevant to the context. As for the assertion that 'this will continue to happen unless we start to see mass arrests,' a referenced news story indicates that mass arrests related to immigration enforcement have not stopped the underlying issues, undermining the causal relationship suggested. Since both elements of the statement are unsupported or disproven by the supplied references, its truthfulness is very low.

    @WarcraftDevs can we fix random 10 sec lagspikes that happen in floodgate and floodgate only to myself and multiple other ppl ive played with? thanks

  • bswagz88
    Brandon 🦅🧬 (@bswagz88) reported

    @Warcraft Server transfers and faction transfers should be free. It hasn't been a manual process in more than decade and the overhead cost isn't commensurate with the service fee. $15/mo in 2023 is already bananas. Just do away with exorbitant character service fees.

  • JorufortKoleana
    Koleana (@JorufortKoleana) reported

    @RamavataramaArt The problem is @Warcraft told those who wanted to see Hyjal as a capital time to go to hell saying it's temporary. Seeing how they built Hyjal in the game they condemned it to be a neutral zone for the Horde to do the cata quests and access the Raid.

  • aaamsuw
    Jinxed (@aaamsuw) reported

    @WarcraftDevs after testing out the arcane 4 set after it got its duration extended. The 4 set is still weak. Luckily the fix is just add 2 more seconds. Please change it so we dont end up running a 2P(old)/2P/Azure. We will end up not utilizing 4P until we get a highest ilvl 4P.

    @vobic13 @PandaTVoce @Warcraft The ping isn't the worst for general stuff. raiding might be an issue if you have really bad ping but otherwise, you'd be fine.

    I run an old MS Surface Book II, 16GB memory, Intel Cor i7 @ 1.9GHz. The only time I have heating problems if I try to do a highly graphic intensive app - like World of Warcraft. (Have a desktop for gaming now.) I've wanted to upgrade to 32GB or even 64GB. But so far have not *needed* it. I can run several Docker Containers at the same time,

    @javierdsv @Warcraft you cant hit need unless its an upgrade for you generally. Under the current system, i cant roll need on a lower ilvl tier piece than i currently own. There are very very few situation in which what you are describing would happen, and its not something you'd wanna "fix"

    @BlizzardCS @Warcraft @WarcraftDevs since 11.1.7 has gone live my computer has been having constant graphical issues where the game screen stalls, goes black, then reloads itself with the minimap glitched out as a lime green square, such lime squares also on a few spell icons too

    I don't play @Warcraft anymore but I still ordered one of the Dungeon Dojo hoodies from @wochinimen because it's players like him and the Dungeon Dojo crew that are working hard to fix toxic bs in this game that made me, and others, stop playing. Show some love @Blizzard_Ent?

    @evokerlord22 @Warcraft this is what a mount should look like you dropkick gronks, worst case 1 full day of work for 1 person to optimise for in game use so no fps issues etc if this takes 20mins to make up. So like less than $100 since you stingy ***** don’t pay for **** either

    @elvenmaidinn @_Shadow_Wars_ Did you know: Warcraft's Orcs are based on Warhammer's Orks. In fact Warcraft 1 was originally a Warhammer game that had licensing issues and switched to being its own thing.

    @bswagz88 @Warcraft It wasn't an issue, but it was a sacrifice? If it was a sacrifice, then it was an issue to someone. C'mon, man. These are your own words.
