Shadowlands Conduits Update
Shadowlands Beta Character Wipe This Week

Later this week when we take the Shadowlands Beta offline for its weekly update, all test characters will be removed from the Shadowlands Beta realms. Over recent weeks, many of the bug reports we’ve received are related to player-characters getting into a broken state due to changes in questlines or Covenant flow. These are not bugs that could occur in a live environment, and they often mask other issues that we still need to identify and fix. When the Shadowlands Beta resumes public availability, testers will want to copy or create new characters in order to resume testing.
Thereafter, on test realms you’ll find that Renown with all Covenants will be set back to its initial, Week 1 state. Please note that there will be two options for template test characters: On the Maw and Oribos realms, you’ll find character copy and Level 50 templates for testing the initial experience. On the Torghast realm, there will be Level 60 character templates and vendors that support PvP, dungeon, and raid testing. This will skip the Shadowlands level-up content and put the test character right before their Covenant choice.
As in previous weeks, we’re targeting late Wednesday morning (PDT) for the time when we’ll take the Beta realms offline and do maintenance, remove all characters, and update the build.
Thank you to all Beta testers for your continued testing and feedback!

Due to the profession revamp and level squish coming in Shadowlands, some WoD crafted armor may no longer be obtainable. This must be a bug, right? Removing old gear stuff that is locked behind daily CDs with this short notice is beyond cruel.
Yes, this is a side effect of Shadowlands development.
We already have plans to reintroduce all of the transmogs in a future patch. So they’ll only be unobtainable temporarily.
