Yee. Wouldn't make any sense to release it before since the Hearthstone anniversary was makred as part of 10.2.5's content.

i think next week we'll get the: "what's in development" article that will announce the patch and 2 weeks later the actual release

There's something that doesn't add up there. Fun promotional event.....for all players....shadowdropped.....no ptr... These things don't add up. And why preview it at all if they're so set on keeping it secret? And why do it immediately after the other big promotional hearthstone event.

Damn long time until march 20.. i guess that to scratch my wow itch i resubbed at the worst time few days ago because my server, guild i am in is pretty much almost a cemetery and there wasn't much to do in 10.2.5 patch, gilneas questline was pretty bad. ^^

That's 3 weeks. Not that long, really.

perhaps they will only state the date of 10.2.6 but not what it is, or only a vague comment

i mean, they can't randomly drop the patch without any announcement ahah. also, no ptr =/= no announcement.

I agree that we won't see an "In Development" for it; they seem to be really attached to the idea of letting certain events evade datamining or preview.

It seems like they're just trying to up the scale of an event like Secrets of Azeroth while also being highly inspired by the excitement behind Season of Discovery's launch. I'd love for it to be this huge patch with a lot of content, but I think they're just utilizing the end of expansion cycle to test new ideas on semi-larger scales.

It's a .6 patch. They probably had some extra developmental bandwith on hand or something along the lines and wanted to try something new for future use. Whether it'll land well or not, I think it's an interesting angle for them and support it.

I originally wasn't that big on the shoulder capes but the first one we got has been actually really good for transmog so I'm so happy to get more.

[Reive]

guys, they can't not say anything. there are people that want to resub for the new patch and they must know what they're buying. i think a brief overview of the main features of the patch is what we're going to get

[Nymrohd]

The peacock mount may be the most beautiful mount to day. Very tempted by the Skyborn blades. Cannot wait for the over the shoulder capes in better colours.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

Hearthstone event is first, right? I mean when news will actually show can be any week in March, honestly.

[Cheezits]

It would be funny if there's no announcement because there's nothing to announce besides a questline.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

Timeless Island but South Sea Island, Arcade with Minigames, Pirate Themed event involving Nightsquall invasions.

Thats' about all I've meticulously come to the conclusion this has to be at this point.

I mean it could just be a quarter bag of pirate shaped chips distributed to our mailboxes when we login with majority being south sea air.

some nice stuff for me! And i think i have enough tender left over from february, as all that valentines stuff wasn't my cup of tea.

[Dracullus]

Do you expect any info before 10.2.6? I get they want no PTR, but they should at least tease something to even start hype before patch.

Hurray, another trading post with mount for 3/4 of what we earn. Sigh.

Imo mount should be always reward for filling bar, and in the shop only returning/item shop mounts. And in general we should afford like half of stuff there, it's only once a month.

New Trading Post is nice, but man...

Where is my chain mail bikini?

Paladin helmets?

Champion's battle standard?

Im still waiting for https://www.wowhead.com/item=190148/...-razor#outfits that was datamined back in 10.0.5 when TP feature was added.

It's weird how much newer stuff datamined was already available in trading post but not something from a year ago.
