The Legion Pre-Expansion Patch Is Nearly Here

Warlords Season 3 PvP Ends July 19

After the season wraps, we will begin the process of determining eligibility for end-of-season rewards. If you believe that you’ve qualified for Warlords Season 3 PvP rewards, please refrain from transferring your character(s) to another realm or faction until awards are granted approximately two weeks later.

The next PvP season, Legion Season 1, will begin after World of Warcraft: Legion launches on August 30. In the meantime, all Honor and Conquest Points will be converted to in-game currency at a rate of 35 silver per point. Also, Rated Battleground and Arena matches will not be available during the break between seasons. We will confirm the start date of the forthcoming Legion Season 1 at a later date.

Please note that the end of the season does not require a patch to the game, and will occur automatically.

Your days are numbered—get out there and fight!

    Did you not download the 20GB patch the other day like the rest of us?

    Which contains all of the data needed for the prepatch.


    Also they didn't say there wouldn't be a patch at all they said that the end of the season itself doesn't require a patch.

    I didn't get it. I restarted hundreds of times, restarted computer, even ended "battle.net auto updater" in task manager, everything. Never got the patch. I know others as well who haven't gotten it.

    It's in the background downloader, so it won't prompt for a download like other patches or even show that it's updating. By default, you'll just see a green arrow on the WoW page of your battle.net app and it caps the download at, I believe, 100 kbps unless you change the setting.

    I'm aware what it means to pre download a patch. I've been playing for 10 years. People always assume people are idiots lol. It simply did not happen. I know what it looks like and what it does when a pre patch dls in the background. It. Didn't. Happen.

    Did you maybe leave your bnet launcher open during the day? Or when you were sleeping.

    Also people are trying to be helpful, they don't know your knowledge on the topic, no need to get hostile.

    IDK, I guess I felt like - since I only play a few hours a week typically - I had a lot to do this expansion? I guess obviously for people who played every fucking day, sure this expansion would be total shit because content droughts been here since Day0 WoD? It's my opinion though so, fuck me right?

When I did come back I found out most of my team had unsubbed till pre-patch b/c they didn't feel like farming Archi till their eyes bled like we did Garry. WoD was pretty darn boring, but the fact that it followed a 14 month content drought in MoP didn't help it any either.
    100% agree, if you guys are badass mythic owning arch - I would of unsubbed as well. I mean obviously raiding is what wow is all about, their is nothing else in the game worth subbing for (Garrisons = Free Sub). I again agree on the shitty content drought.. I have nothing I can say against that

    I wish there had been something other than raiding worth subbing for in WoD. There just wasn't. Even the free sub option using gold seemed like a waste when I had literally completed everything but pet battles which I don't personally enjoy. Now Legion I feel that will be different. Legion offers plenty of content options so even if the team I'm with decides to take a break I can still work on things. We haven't had that in a long time.

    How do we purchase s3 gear once they end the season, if there is any way? as a fresh 100 pvp gear is the best ilvl and i wanna make sure i can still get it rather than waste time getting honor for it to be taken away and no way to get the gear

    I would be very surprised if prepatch dosnt start at the 19th.

    You might be able to continue to farm conquest points in Ashran to buy them. I don't think they're converting honor and conquest until Legion Season 1 starts. After that, I imagine the S3 gear will be available for honor at a legacy vendor.
