Battle for Azeroth Beta - Build 26871

Druid Artifact Transmog in Battle for Azeroth
The latest beta build added the Artifact transmog system:

  • When transmogging your weapon, there is an option under the weapon type drop down menu called "Artifact Pair."
  • When you select this, you see your basic artifact weapon and the different versions of each weapon.
  • When you right click the version, a list of the different forms and color options is able to be selected to apply to your character.
  • The form is still linked to your artifact weapon and so your weapon will appear as the claws or daggers (based on spec) regardless of what weapon you have equipped. (ex - your equipped polearm would still turn into the dual daggers).
  • A similar system is in place for other classes.



Uther's Tomb Updates
Uther's Tomb received some more updates in Battle for Azeroth. His statue has been upgraded and two locked doors have appeared on either side of the stained glass window. If you look through the bars, you can see stairs leading down into an unknown location.





Dark Iron Racial - Mole Machine
The Mole Machine allows you and your friends to travel to Stormwind or right outside Ironforge.



Warfront and Island Expedition Queue Menus
The menus that allow you to queue for Warfronts and Island Expeditions were recently added to beta.



Battle for Azeroth Timewalking Quest Reward
The quest available whenever a timewalking event is active returns in Battle for Azeroth and has been updated to reward a normal cache from the new raid and 400 artifact power for your Heart of Azeroth. The new quest giver is a tortollan named Chronicler Toopa and is found in the Tradewinds Market area of Boralus and Little Tortolla in the docks area of Zuldazar.

Realms came down a bit ago to facilitate a new build update. No ETA for today's push but things should be coming up soon.

Also, character copy will be enabled! Please note that under load, the character copy system could fail to create at times due to volume of requests. If things seem slow, take a deep breath, wait a bit and try again later.

I'll leave this thread open for discussion as long as conversations remain civil and adhere to forum guidelines.

Thanks for your patience everyone!

Battle for Azeroth Feedback - New Arenas

  • Mugambala (Zuldazar)
  • Hook Point (Kul Tiras)

At this time, the Arena queue in the Battle for Azeroth Beta should only offer these two maps. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

In this thread, we're looking for feedback on the Arenas themselves -- how they play and feel, and details on any environmental concerns that you might come across.

Please use the in-game report button to report bugs with spells that aren't working as expected.

You may also wish to leave detailed feedback on such things here.

But the scaling goes much further then that. I went to org on my lock with a LVL 60 disc priest. It literally took 10 horde to kill him, not exaggerating that number either. At 120 I could get this disc priest below 80% hp. Actually crazy.

Also it’s seems like old pvp gear with resilience works. A lot of people are running around in full Cata pvp gear and other old seasons. Makes you 100% more useful in pvp atm or so it seems. Try it out for yourself. But something needs to be done before 8.0 goes live

Just dropping in to say that the PvP scaling is a system we're iterating on. Anomalies like level 60 players doing more damage than a 110 are essentially bugs that we're ironing out.

It would be helpful to hear scenarios in which you feel the scaling system is functioning oddly (i.e. lower levels doing more damage than max levels, certain spells doing more damage than they should, items etc.)

Thanks for the testing, and the feedback! (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

In Battle For Azeroth, you will be able to earn the Legion class mounts. (WarcraftDevs)

Will "The Chosen" Achievement become un-obtainable at some point? Will the cache that is the reward become un-obtainable at some point? If so, when? Thanks
Yes, "The Chosen" will be moved to a Feat of Strength with 8.0, and that should already/soon be the case in the Battle for Azeroth Beta. (WarcraftDevs)

What's Next?
I'm gonna be going through and compiling all of this into data for the team like we normally do with topics on the forums. What's different is that having the feedback concentrated like this should help ensure the topic is properly covered.

I'm gonna lock this one now to preserve it. Like I mentioned before we're doing a series of these and the next one is Order Halls.

Where is X Topic?
There is probably a topic on our list that pertains to you so no worries! We plan on covering quite a few bases of playstyles overall within the game.
