World of Warcraft Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • ryanalxander91 Ryan Acheson (@ryanalxander91) reported

    @RollieRodz @Niicklas_TV @Warcraft I agree. My issue with lore weapons used by active lore characters being artifacts was the fact they had to have a reason said characters gave them up (Tirion dying, Thrall not feeling worthy etc…)

  • ItsFlowBM Flow (@ItsFlowBM) reported

    @WarcraftDevs @Warcraft @holinka PLEASE FIX RATED PVP MMR & RBGs! I am EXHAUSTED with fighting 2000+ MMR teams at 1600, and not being rewarded for it! If my 1600 team rocks the socks off a 2k+ team, we deserve rating equivalent to our skill level, not some automated garbage.

  • whoissauronx Mark (@whoissauronx) reported

    @SapTheseCasters @Warcraft I agree, altough I dont have an issue with the current model, there should be an other option aswell. A new model for Sarkareth was datamined (I wont link it, might be spoiler for some here) and that body/skeleton would be an amazing 2nd option.

  • XiangLin1022 孟湘林 (@XiangLin1022) reported

    Problems in World of Warcraft Squad cooperation. Misunderstanding, the tank intends to adopt a new way of playing, and the other teammates believe that the tank does not follow the optimal route, so the two sides quarrel, and everyone is frozen and unhappy to disperse.

  • r1dder21 ridder (@r1dder21) reported

    @WarcraftDevs for real tho this shits is broken

  • Curt953 Svilen Nikolov 🇧🇬 (@Curt953) reported

    @Warcraft I waited 20 hours to login into classic wow on launch back in 2019 so I named my Orc Shaman Queuing

  • D4RTHV3DA DarthVeda (@D4RTHV3DA) reported

    @DANNYonPC Also I counter with World of Warcraft: a premium game that cost money to buy that also had a subscription service. But I think that's more of the exception to the rule.

  • LuisoNorth FnaticNorth🧡🖤 (@LuisoNorth) reported

    @Lord_Dipso @Mvqdh @WarcraftDevs Why play a bugged DH when you can play broken palas and warriors

  • KodiakJedi Kevin Carlson (@KodiakJedi) reported

    @lvladen @WarcraftDevs They should have one queue. You get 2v2 or 3v3. If there are enough healers, you get 3v3. If not then you get 2v2 and double DPS. They could also give a different rating for 2v2. Even if they didn't and all solo shuffle was under 1 rating double DPS fixes the queue problems.

  • lvladen Lvladen (@lvladen) reported

    Think the new Ret tech is running crusade, dropping crusading strikes for templar strikes, and running aura of reckoning. Main reason for dropping crusading strikes is because its still bugged with aura of reckoning and cant proc it. Would love a bug fix! @WarcraftDevs

  • MrIvarV12 Mr Ivar V12 (@MrIvarV12) reported

    @Romser15 @lvladen @WarcraftDevs K how do they fix it

  • Romser15 Romser (@Romser15) reported

    @lvladen @WarcraftDevs Nah they just need to fix the healer imbalance somehow but they keep nerfing healers and letting extreme cringe like fistweaver exist

  • PockyPeaches 💚 Millera 💚 (@PockyPeaches) reported

    Just a heads up, when you do chromie time into burning crusade I think the rep system is broken. I wore my tabard and got 0 vanilla rep when I hit friendly 4999 #worldofwarcraft #chromietime

  • lordmowens (Nether)Lord Mowens 💙 (@lordmowens) reported

    @WarcraftDevs can we please have playable Eredar for the Horde? A small faction could easily find their way to Azeroth now they are broken free of their demonic masters. The Horde would see their own past in this and help them find redemption for their previous actions.

  • JacobMay316 Jacob/Dorisseline (@JacobMay316) reported

    Anyone else experiencing some random crashing or Massive lag spikes in World of Warcraft @BlizzardCS now a wait time to get in BattleNet.

  • Caseyb77 Casey Braswell (@Caseyb77) reported

    @Warcraft I am considering coming back into the world. Problem is, all the folks I used to play with, no longer play. It has been over 5 years since I last played. I am an original vanilla wow player, up through wrath. Then fell off, picked back up in 2018, then off again.

  • IronPawSteve Steven Docherty (@IronPawSteve) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Had to make my community Alliance only again due to zero recruitment being crossfaction. No one knows to use the option to search XFac. So no new players A or H. Shame. Wanted to be more inclusive. Maybe fix?

  • JTBibito Bibito (@JTBibito) reported

    @stergey @WarcraftDevs 100g per win, more rating gained when winning, 1-5 rating loss, 2-4 no change, 3-3 10 rating, 4+ proceed as normal. SS shouldn't be taken as serious so healers having it easier to climb shouldn't be an issue.

  • EchoMaus Music Mouse Echo Faust (@EchoMaus) reported

    @Signilike Yeah it's pretty rough. I don't have much a problem with it, but I'm so used to how Warcraft 3 works that I just can't play it all that well. No heroes (usually) kinda bugs me.

  • UtahLibertyGov Positively Libertarian (@UtahLibertyGov) reported

    @Broccolidwarf @LibertarianMama @Sen_JoeManchin Do you think I disagree with you that they 'deploy military forces without declaring war'? Your adamance that it be labeled a 'war' is the evidence that what she was stating is relevant to American warcraft. The issue is the LONG series of abuses, Iraq to Ukraine to Yemen.

  • Kyakarot RichieSensei (@Kyakarot) reported from Ōme, Tokyo Prefecture

    @Reguulos @Warcraft That makes no sense ,if modern MMOs can run on consoles and PC with no issues I don't why wow should be an issues, for god sakes BLACK DESERT of all games runs on consoles no issues FFXIV run on consoles no issues. Stop finding excuses

  • noreplyofficial ugglebjorn (@noreplyofficial) reported

    @WarcraftDevs @WarcraftDevs Divine Star talent: For each time Divine Star damage or heals a target, you gain X% Haste. This effect is applied when Divine Star returns to you. Halo talent: Each target healed or damaged by Halo reduces the cooldown of Halo and Shadow Crash (Shadow) by 1 sec.

  • clshep1 Carlos Shepherd (@clshep1) reported

    @Warcraft It was my call sign in the US Navy. Human Paladin, "Osprey".

  • TheBardsGambit The Bard's Gambit (@TheBardsGambit) reported

    @huskyhuskarl my biggest problem is that I grew up playing too much Warcraft and Starcraft, so all of the games I run end up resembling those >.> Or Bloodborne. It actually became a joke for awhile in my old group that if I would turn any game I found into Bloodborne

  • Reguulos Jason Finn (@Reguulos) reported

    @Kyakarot @Warcraft You understand how poorly wow would run and control on console right? Putting games onto other platforms isnt a money issue, its time, it would take ages to port it and by that time the next expansion is already out or close to releasing.

  • BigRedKaz BigRedKaz (@BigRedKaz) reported

    @Warcraft Kazan: was sitting there on login screen and came up with it Laurcian: my first D&D character

  • Ethriel2 Ethriel (@Ethriel2) reported

    @Ulrich_Wolfsung @mrnerdzesq @Warcraft It is still unaddressed 5 years later. That's the big issue. But whenever something like this happens it brings out the worst people from the wow community like you who defend that kind of stuff.

  • TheRedShirtGuy Ian Bates 💙 (@TheRedShirtGuy) reported

    @BaalTheWarlock The biggest problem being that they couldn’t decide if the time displaced warlords summoned by the horn would be their exact selves circa Warcraft I or undead.

  • itssiuo Siuo (@itssiuo) reported

    @Velkhan_WoW @lvladen @WarcraftDevs I just rerolled healer easy fix

  • KempiDjinni Kempi the Djinni (@KempiDjinni) reported

    @Warcraft I used the name Brontes, for my Blood Death Knight, because of the Greek Goddess Βροντή. Originally Horde. Blood represented her sadistic hemomancy usage in service of the Ebon Blade. Thunder would represent the cries of those she slaughtered. Blood and Thunder.
