Upcoming Artifact Knowledge Research Hotfix
Originally Posted by Blizzard (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)
We’re currently working on a hotfix intended to significantly reduce the amount of time it takes to reach the Artifact Knowledge cap of 40, in order to allow returning players to catch up more quickly.

Specifically, this hotfix will reduce the time it takes to research ranks of Artifact Knowledge between 26 and 40 to approximately 4 hours each. We hope to make this retroactive to any work orders already in progress when the hotfix is applied. Once these changes are live, a returning player should be able to reach the maximum level of Artifact Knowledge in only a few days.

This hotfix will require extensive testing, but our goal is to apply it within the next day or so.

World Boss - Ana-Mouz
Be sure to kill Ana-Mouz in Suramar for chance at item level 860 items and a Fel Relic.



Legendary Upgrade - Stabilized Titan Essence Consumed on Use
Stabilized Titan Essence will be consumed on use, just as the previous version was. Keep in mind that you can't start on upgrades until next week.

Hi! This item is practically identical to the one that upgraded a legendary from 910 to 940. It is definitely consumed on use.

Mists of Pandaria Timewalking
Mists of Pandaria timewalking is back! It offers rewards such as Yu'lei, Daughter of Jade





Brawl - Packed House
The Packed House brawl is now available!

Correct. We'll have a complete hotfixes update later today with new hotfixes such as this one.

Season 3 Rewards Reminder
If you participated in Season 3, please keep the following in mind to ensure you receive the rewards that you’re due:

  • Refrain from transferring your character(s) to another realm or faction until after Legion Season 3 rewards have been distributed.
  • Legion Season 3 titles and mounts will be awarded approximately two weeks after the season ends.

Faction-Based Rewards
Don’t forget—end-of-season rewards are based on your faction. If you transfer your character to the other faction, you must have 50 wins after your transfer to receive the reward. Please note that you must have 150 wins for Gladiator and Cruel Gladiator.

The Arenas and Battlegrounds await!

Artifact Power Reward Changes
The official notes were updated with some additional artifact power changes.

  • On Raid Finder difficulty, bosses no longer drop Artifact Power items. Artifact Power is now rewarded once per week at the completion of each Raid Finder wing.

Order Hall Mission Bonus Reputation Rewards
Scuuuu on Reddit noticed that missions now reward Greater tokens, such as Greater Tribute of the Broken Isles, that award 1500 reputation. Nightfallen and Legionfall award 750.

    With the change to AP research speeds it won't matter at all. If people can hit AP 40 in a couple days, not being able to farm LFR like that to max AP is probably needed.

    I don't get it, does 1-26 AK still takes months? Then what is the point of 26-40 taking days?

    Many changes announced few hours before patch goes live...like ilvl 900 crafted items, 4h research times, 100% AP drop on raid bosses...why do we even have PTR if they change so many major things right before patch hits?

    But.. but.. but.. it's called testing right ? Right ?!
    We're not allowed to criticise this small Indy company who has to learn everything and has no resources or experience in those kind of things.

    Don't need ptr for those things. They're just trying to get player progression to the right spot before tomb hits.
