Releasedate for new raid Hellfire Citadel?

[Nibahe]

First week in July

[Madone]

I just want that they won't release Raid with the patch itself, I know this is pretty odd and unlikely but I wish to enjoy a bit more the Tanaan patch b4 the "whole Raid pressure thing".

I'd like they release:
6.2 @ 23/6
and
Raid Tier @ 7/7

I'd like to see something like this as well (although maybe just a one week gap vs. a two week gap). I highly doubt it will happen though - there would be an uproar about the raid being delayed. Is there any precedence for this? Has there ever been a mid-expansion raid patch where the raid didn't go live on the day the patch went live?

lfr archimonde is actualy 5-6 times more important to be tuned correckly because it will be seen by 50-60 % of playerbase in oposition to hc archimonde which will be seen by 10 %

They'll have four weeks to test lfr version internally + feedback from live version. Also, there are no real implications of fucking up Archimonde tuning w1, whereas there will be if he proves to be too easy or impossible to beat on hc.

6/30 is too close to Independence Day, after 7/4 is too late, and 6/23 lines up with a competitive opportunity. Blizzard announces season endings right on the 2-week mark, so barring Twitter teases we'll hear tomorrow.

I think doing the first 2 wings of normal mode raid testing in a single week last week speaks volumes about their plans to release in June.

June 30th.

With raid testing on wednesday on mythic again, the 23rd suddenly seems alot less likely.

[Spotnick]

It's now 100% sure it's not the 23rd. We would have seen the pvp season end notice by now.

[Life-Binder]

yeah, not the 23-rd


hmm

[krux]

tomorrow will be a huge ptr update, so we should know by then

It's been the 9th for less than 3 hours in California (as of this post, several hours after yours here) ... two weeks is any time today.

[Aphrel]

they usually announce 2weeks in advance. so unless something get annoucned today or 2morrow. it will probobly not be until 30th/1st

Considering a mid-Summer release is something they've been wanting to avoid (hint: Firelands) but have still promised quicker content release, you could speculate for hours w/o getting anywhere. My money is on late July.

Yes and No, they often give notice a day before the reset occurs.

Considering they have not even tested mythic dungeon abilities, they are not even in yet, and the 2 weeks notice and a couple of other stuff, i can gurantee you it will come out early/mid july

There will be no mythic dungeon abilities, they will just deal more damage.

Late July is not going to happen. It's either the 23rd/24th of June or 7th/8th of July.

They released during Christmas which is by far worse than mid Summer.

In fact mid Summer is an excellent timing & they also never said Firelands was bad timing lol.

Happened 2 weeks before BRF was opened up as well (Hanz and Franzok Mythic), so that means very little.

Especially since mythic opens up a week after the patch comes out.

PVP season end needs to be announced today in order for the patch to go live on the 23rd. Otherwise, it will be the 30th or the 7th.

[Life-Binder]

Yes and it's 5.35 am in CA right now. Looking at the past they announced it as early as 8 am pdt or as late at 5 pm pdt.

So between 2h25 and 11h30 of waiting, let's hope it's the first :P
