World of Warcraft Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • NyxxaNovella Nyxxa (@NyxxaNovella) reported

    @Warcraft Area 52 major lag full guild is stuck not being able to use abilities. only can move and type

  • teukarin Teukarin (@teukarin) reported

    @Quake1028 @Warcraft @LimitGuild It wont be perfectly fair but would quiet a lot of complainers, as you cannot perfectly quantify the advantage/disadvantages. Main issue I could see is that they (likely EU guilds) would lose a chunk of (EU) audience time if they decided to raid 16 hour days at start of release.

  • Fodenwow Foden (@Fodenwow) reported

    @trellsky @WarcraftDevs Outside of the dps (which is pretty broken alongside 5% debuff), I think its mostly just good because it can kite forever while the rest of us underpowered tanks either have aggro issues if they kite, or get 1 shotted it they go melee. Tldr buff paladin

  • Nostroscythe Matt (@Nostroscythe) reported

    I woke up today and I'm going to make it world of warcraft's problem

  • Pumpacon Isac Ericson (@Pumpacon) reported

    @Amstadam @CouRageJD @Warcraft There is a simpler solution: Just dont invite melee. And that is the problem.

  • canhasbucket Donovan Mowatt (@canhasbucket) reported

    @CouRageJD @Warcraft So you want them to delete raider io from the game? Because its not spiteful thats the problem...its how the community has been trained by statistics and always will take the easy route. Right now it's .. high raider io(ranged) > ranged > literally a dead horse > melee

  • drococu Cesar the Konmari Druid (@drococu) reported

    @WarcraftDevs can we please fix Devos’ spear bug in M+? I’ve had the spear not bring her down THREE times in a dungeon even though it slapped her right on the face and torso, but if you miss the shot she’ll jump down.

  • ShivaSenpai DeathShiva (@ShivaSenpai) reported

    @Warcraft server issues right now?

  • Amstadam Amsta (@Amstadam) reported

    @CouRageJD @Warcraft Lol.... get a weak aura and back away when the mobs die. Kill all at the same time as well and bring a Druid to mass entangle and walk away. Find solutions not the problem

  • hey_yn0t ynot (@hey_yn0t) reported

    @WarcraftDevs please fix the dampening in 2s. It’s not fun

  • TaunkaTruck Eyonita Coalhoof (@TaunkaTruck) reported

    Has anyone else noticed this? Are there thoughts on the narrative? Are runeblades just a standard-issue thing in Maldraxxus? CONSISTENCY, @Warcraft! It would have been SO COOL if the player did keep -a- runeblade, and raised it as part of the visual for Fleshcraft.

  • ChuuHaan Joan Romero (@ChuuHaan) reported

    @Warcraft Hey, it would be cool if all your servers worked and you fixed problems faster than pirated servers do. I am paying a subscription for playing without this issues happening thx xoxo

  • linaori_lynn Lynn (@linaori_lynn) reported

    @CouRageJD @Warcraft Main problem is there huge range, it's much bigger than it seems. Either they should add a circle indicating the range, or decrease the range. That said, there's a nice plater mod making them more visible when they are on you. Also shows the target name when not on you.

  • JustinKoval Justin Koval (@JustinKoval) reported

    Login issues with @Warcraft currently new sign-ins wont load. Players in game are also having issues.

  • LongarmsFeedme 🏹 Longarms 🐻 (@LongarmsFeedme) reported

    @CouRageJD @Warcraft The complaint here seems to be his friends won’t play with him so the game itself needs to change despite the evidence seeming to be that the issue is with the friends.

  • Smasher225 Maxwell Thomas (@Smasher225) reported

    @ben74298028 @CouRageJD @Warcraft People will always take the path of least resistance, pugs are very much the same and if the community perception is melee is bad they won’t take them. People want blizzard to fix why they won’t get into groups but nothing stopping people from making their own.

  • MikeMangu MikeMangu (@MikeMangu) reported

    @Warcraft @frenone Fix warriors

  • MoonfallenRaven MoonfallenRaven (@MoonfallenRaven) reported

    Any other pet collector's playing @Warcraft having issue with the 1000 limit for battle pets? I seem to have hit it again and the only thing I had was 4 extra pets to remove. Am I missing something since returning or is there still a battle pet limit of 1000?

  • Rutof Rune Toftlund (@Rutof) reported

    @CouRageJD @Warcraft Is it really that hard to run away from them? Every melee has a stun, slow or simiar. Use em and its no problem.

  • rjcruz00 Ricardo Cruz (@rjcruz00) reported

    @1HP_Medic @CouRageJD @Warcraft Good idea, however this would just mean that pugs will be looking for specific team comps which still goes back to the original post’s main issue at hand.

  • CanadaWorldof WorldofWarcraftCanada (@CanadaWorldof) reported

    Either my server has pooped the bed, got booted out, character not found, no realms showing, what's happening? My whole guild is having this issue on server stormrage US #WorldOfWarcraft

  • vargas_efrain Efrain Vargas (@vargas_efrain) reported

    @Warcraft Yo, fix your servers.

  • Ravnorz Ravnor (@Ravnorz) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Today the Spanish server of Sanguino was with connection problems for more than 4hours. There will be a day of compensation?

  • ThrashhTV thrash (@ThrashhTV) reported

    @CouRageJD @Warcraft Sounds like your friends or you need to make a new class? How is that a game problem? Lol

  • dwarfusmax 🎄Dwarfusmax #CHRISTMASISCOMING 🎄 (@dwarfusmax) reported

    hey @WarcraftDevs I just got DCd, whats going on? Is it a DDOS, or servers just messed up? Let me know. Not angry, just want to play is all. :)

  • Xavisz_EU Györe Dávid (@Xavisz_EU) reported

    @WatcherDev @WarcraftDevs ******* CONOKE THE SPIRIT SPELLS GO THROUGH THE ******* WALL!!!! U CANT EVEN LOS THIS RETARDED ****!!! HOLY ******* NERF AND FIX THIS **** ALREADY U RETARDS

  • ffsmonty Ridgers (@ffsmonty) reported

    @Bix636 @CouRageJD @Warcraft Surely the answer to that is choose your packs based on your comp - not don’t bring melee. It’s not an insurmountable challenge is the point I’m trying to make, regardless of what pug world actually looks like. If anyone’s reading this, join a guild these problems go away.

  • noodle_ow Noodle_ow (@noodle_ow) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Warriors and paladins are broken ! Please do something 2v2 is unplayable

  • Gin619J Gin619Juice (@Gin619J) reported

    @CouRageJD @Warcraft This is kinda misleading but I get your point. The issue is more that people are ignoring mechanics as they increase in ilvl.

  • trellsky trell (@trellsky) reported

    @Digitalchaos8 @WarcraftDevs I think everyone everywhere would like that, only problem is blizzard never ever does that, they will nerf 1 instead of buff 5
