World of Warcraft Patch 8.6.7 Build 5309
Update Notes WIP DO NOT RELEASE

April 1, 2019

Companion App Update: Findr
Find your next tank, healer, or damage dealer at a glance with the latest update to the WoW Companion App: Findr. When you open the Findr feature, you’ll be presented with a picture and a brief description of another player, and you can decide whether they’d be the right match for your party. Features include:[*]Glance at a player’s gear and achievement points for 3 seconds (maximum) before making a snap judgment about how well they’ll tank your Mythic Keystone run.

• Swipe right to request a match and immediately send a party invitation.
• Swipe left to completely dismiss the player’s entire existence; this is completely anonymous, distancing you from the other player’s growing vortex of self-doubt.
• Once a match has been made, option to not message them right away, which makes it look like you’re super busy and use Findr all the time.

When the time is right, gather your new groupmates together, and head off to whatever adventures lay in store!

General

• “Shell Game” can now be attempted on Mythic difficulty, featuring a 64x64 grid.
• Following the success of the Comp Stomp PvP Brawl, which allowed a team of AI-controller characters to battle real players in Arathi Basin, we are now allowing teams of AI characters to complete dungeons.
• Riverbud is now legal in Drustvar, Stormsong Valley, and Tiragarde Sound.
• Riverbud remains illegal in Kul Tiras.

[Season2mask]

There goes a raid tier.

[MakeMeLaugh]

Happy Diablo Immortal day!

[Life-Binder]

terrible AF

[dewd]

this shit would be funny if it wouldnt detract blizzard stuff from even trying to fix the gamae instead theyre wasting their time with this

[MeTaL GuArD]

terrible AF

Compared to the other cringeworthy shit I've already seen on the Internet today, this is a real highlight.

[Rozz]

When you get excited, then look at the date and feel sad.

[greatmefisto]

This is actually good stuff .

[Palemoon]

Now let's see how long people take to go with the usual "OMG they do this instead of bug fixes / content / etc", failing to realize that there are more than two people working at Blizzard.

[dranlord]

I know this is AF jokes, but the AI for dungones will happen if the game keep going this way

[Azmoden]

Is that the best they could do?

Meanwhile, in FFXIV:

Blizzard cutting corners again!

[Khestral]

this shit would be funny if it wouldnt detract blizzard stuff from even trying to fix the gamae instead theyre wasting their time with this

Seriously dude? I mean during the year, you get a few funny ideas, you make notes and collect them before April 1st. It might take 1 man hour all together. Everyone needs to relax, even developers. This does not delay anything. Stupid decisions do (and those, unfortunately, they make very often).

[Hugnomo]

I really enjoyed reading these patch notes. But reading the comments, both here and on wowhead, just brought me back to the default state of realizing we can't have nice things. Some NPCs have had the same fixed script for the past 15 years.

[zlygork]

this shit would be funny if it wouldnt detract blizzard stuff from even trying to fix the gamae instead theyre wasting their time with this

I hate it when the guy that gets paid to interact with the community refuses to use his communications degree to fix class balance! wtf blizz, I'm a paying customer!!

[dranlord]

Is that the best they could do?

Meanwhile, in FFXIV:

Blizzard cutting corners again!

LOL FFXIV isnt even original they just copy paste the old commercial joke from Alexia. So yeah the one cutty corners is them and no Blizzard.

[FelPlague]

this shit would be funny if it wouldnt detract blizzard stuff from even trying to fix the gamae instead theyre wasting their time with this

"A random CM spending 2 hours typing up all these jokes= loss dev time"
alright then buddy...
i guess blizz should just... never talk to us, or never post anything other then patch notes cause "its lost dev time"

[Azmoden]

LOL FFXIV isnt even original they just copy paste the old commercial joke from Alexia. So yeah the one cutty corners is them and no Blizzard.

You got some brown on your nose.

Smells like Blizzard ass.

[FelPlague]

Is that the best they could do?

Meanwhile, in FFXIV:

1. they do this exact thing every year
2. also seriously final fantasy, copying this... you serious?

[Wrathson]

[*]Feral Druids can now be crowd-controlled by throwing a slice of cheese on their head.


This made me laugh

[FelPlague]

You got some brown on your nose.

Smells like Blizzard ass.

You have some brown on your nose, literally reusing the idea above, but less funny, even the same couch settup come on. couch with kitchen behind
