Titanforge Rate for Weekly Cache Increased

This is an intended change to the Weekly Cache, and not a bug. Wishing you all luck with your loots!

Player versus Player

Quests
  • Nightfallen requirements removed from several Suramar quests, making it possible to complete the Suramar campaign without reputation gates.
  • Protection Paladins who obtained Truthguard without receiving credit for taking the hippogryph to Stormheim should now receive credit for doing so when they re-enter the “Shrine of the Truthguard” scenario.

Bonus Event - Cataclysm Timewalking
Cataclysm Timewalking is back this week.





World Boss - Nithogg
Scourge of the Skies is up this week, sending players to kill Nithogg! He drops item level 860 gear and a Holy Relic. Warriors can get the Skull of Nithogg hidden artifact appearance.

Seems this is actually a bit more complicated than I/we thought - it is intended that alt characters can skip the Broken Shore scenario, as long as another character on your account has completed it.

So... what people may be seeing in regards to having to complete the scenario likely means they haven't completed it on at least one character. To make sure this activates for your alts, you will need to have logged into your main character, or one that has complete the Broken Shore scenario, after the launch of 7.3.

Once you've logged in with a character who has completed the scenario, you will be able to speak with Khadgar at Krasus' Landing and accept the "Assault on the Broken Shore" quest.

Khadgar should have an option to skip the scenario when you next speak with him, then you will need to turn in the quest and finally return to Dalaran (via Hearthstone or otherwise) to receive your Argus introduction quest.

It's technically locked behind Broken Shore, but is able to be skipped on every character after the first. A bit of a communication issue this morning, but from my current understanding this is the intended functionality.

Khadgar at Krasus' Landing in Dalaran should offer you a quest for the Broken Shore when you hit 110, if you didn't receive it automatically. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

    Illidan heard:
    "Garrosh Hellscream: YOU made me what I am!
    Thrall: No... You chose your own destiny."
    I can do that too!

    Pretty much the lesson learned here is never shove ones beliefs down others throats as you never know what the reaction will be..

    Since I utterly despise Xe'ra and her pretending we were the bad ones for stopping Illidan, I have to admit I kinda love this turn of events. The vile and retarded wind chime gets a dose of all the prophecy garbage and Illidan rejects becoming another lame ass plot device as carrigan. Chapeau! Well done Blizzard, Illidan's true redemption is a hand, by not becoming the main character of the warcraft series. I like that; really! All I need now is a conversation between Illidan and Kadghar (rejecting becoming the guardian) about their similar circumstances and we can end this expansion in satisfaction.

    Love this cinematic. Illidan is really interesting in this expansion. Can't wait to see Antorus' ending cinematic.

    Did I... Did I just read the best. Change. Ever?

    Nightfallen requirements removed... It is bitter sweet at this point, but man oh man.

    their mythic + completion ratio must have had plummeted that they are so desperate to push weekly cache so much higher already.

    What a pity, it would have been so much fun in the forums if they started the scripted world boss rotation with withered j'im, twice.

    it's nothing to do with that, it's a fix to a long standing problem with the system for getting gear in the weekly chest, until now blizzard has 'forced' the items to titanforge up so you get the baseline ilvl reward for that M+ bracket, yet when titanforging normally, the item still uses the base ilvl of the item to measure against, lets say for example you did a +10 for the weekly, the end of dungeon ilvl reward was 890, yet in the chest for the weekly reward it is 935, but lets say the item you get in the weekly chest already titanforged up 'normally' from 890 baseline to 920, prior to this patch the game hides that and would bump up the ilvl so it met with the weekly reward criteria so you wouldn't ever see that in the item value, now what they are doing is using the items current ilvl as a baseline so you get the 'correct' ilvl reward from the weekly cache.

    As Daenerys Targaryen put it: I respect what you did. I wish you hadn't done it but I respect it.
    Xe'ra was a force that definitely would have helped us in the fights to come just like the empowered-by-the-Light Illidan would have been.
    His decision will cost lifes.

    Man, I don't know what happened with direction of the cutscenes, but since WoD the amount of so called "dramatic" pauses increased exponentially. Most of them are poorly timed, or deliver a line which has a little to no meaning ("Only we [lengthy buildup] can save ourselves" - I mean, really?). Sadly it's rather painful to watch.

    Even the cheap "There must always be [kaboom] a Lich King" line had better execution.

    She will help us in the form of the Netherlight Crucible. Otherwise she would be commanding us behind the scenes, judging by how she tried to force Illidan's conversion. Personally, I love how the events turned out.
