    Any word on pre-patch?

    Any word on the pre-patch? The expansion is coming up pretty quickly. I can't seem to find the patch date anywhere.

    Usually, Blizzard gives a 2-week notice before any pre-patch releases. Since we didn't get anything by now I'll have to guess that the pre-patch landing in September has pretty much gone, which means that we may have an October 6-7 pre-patch. But then again it's all just speculation, from my side at least.

    They will probably announce it tomorrow for next week and piss the PvP players off.

    3 week pre-patch is not reasonable I expect they will just piss off the tiny PvP player base to make the PvE players happy since we are Legion, we are many!

    I'd guess that it will be 6th of October or 13th of October.

    Not much of a guess really, no other real options

    Challenge Mode : Play WoW like my disability has me play:
    You will need two people, Brian MUST use the mouse for movement/looking and John MUST use the keyboard for casting, attacking, healing etc.
    Briand and John share the same goal, same intentions - but they can't talk to each other, however they can react to each other's in game activities.
    Now see how far Brian and John get in WoW.

    According to details of Brewfest, going on from now until 6 October. Item drops from the event boss will be ilvl 425. Which is indirect indicator that no patch until at least 6 Oct.

    Why would that piss PvPers off? Is there anyone at this point that doesnt realize pre-patch/end of season is coming soon?

    Will likely be the 2 week warning tomorrow.. similar to most prepatches.

    3 weeks for pre-patch seems like not enough to me, I don't think it has ever been that short.

    It‘s the 21st and Blizzard hasn’t said anything about pre-patch next week, so it’s obviously not the 29th.

    The prepatch event is barely an event. It could be 2 weeks long & be absolutely fine.

    Oh ye, because they never before announced a prepatch only 3-4 days before it got released.

    they gave a 2 weeks warning before that..."legion season 7 ending soon" then 10+ days after the prepatch date. we didn't even have a warning yet. pre patch 13 or 20 of october given the current state of class tuning.

    It isn't about that, it is about learning all the new stuff and getting characters ready for Shadowlands, I have 4 to get leveled and ready as most are doing the same and it will be much faster after the squish, 1 char per cov.

    While I agree with the dates lining up and also think it's the 6th, I'm...immensely curious as to how ilvl plays into it, as it'd just squish down anyway. The same way any other ilvl 425 loot.

    One week of pre-patch is more than enough. Why would you need more time?
