With a hotfix earlier today in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary, we corrected the level of Riding skill for boosted characters who did not receive Riding correctly. Upon completing the first boost quest "A New Beginning", boosted characters should now automatically receive Apprentice Riding.(1/2)

We've been fixing Burning Crusade Anniversary bugs as they pop up. Today, we addressed issues with: - Blackrock Spire - The quest “The First and Last” eligibility - Cleansed Songflowers - Paladins learning Consecration - Shamans learning Two-Handed weapons us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/222...

We’ve reviewed the rate of Honor acquisition in Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary's pre-patch and decided to make adjustments. We’re going to do these changes via hotfix in the next day or so, and until then, we suggest you hold onto your Honor. Thank you for all of your feedback on this.

We're excited by the release of Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary pre-patch and the huge number of players pouring into the realms! And thank you for the feedback. You can always find our latest bug fixes in our regularly-updated Hotfixes thread, too: worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-us/news/2...

Greetings! As a reminder, in preparation for the launch of the Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary pre-patch, we've brought down all non-MoP Classic realms for maintenance, starting with NA realms. This includes all Anniversary, Classic Era, Hardcore, and Season of Discovery realms. (1/x)

Thank you for your feedback on the final Honor ranking in Classic Anniversary. We have a passion for battling for the highest ranking right to the end. So we dug into our options, and we’ve found a way to award updated Ranks one more time. (1/2)

With Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary on the (close) horizon, characters' current Honor Ranks in WoW Classic Anniversary will be their final ranks. In addition, we're excited to announce that with the start of Burning Crusade's pre-patch, we're doubling Honor gains for the length of pre-patch.

VERY important news about the timing of our maintenance and closing of free character transfers:

We're excited for Pre-Patch next week, and launch on Feb 5!

Yesterday, the Classic Hardcore realm Doomhowl in North America was impacted by a malicious DDoS attack, resulting in the deaths of some player-characters. Today, we’ve restored the dead player-characters who were lost during the DDoS timeframe and remained on the Doomhowl realm. Thank you!

Gigantic post chock full of MoP Classic design goodness:

We just posted an update about Challenge Mode Dungeons in MoP Classic, specifically focusing on our plans to correctly grant realm first achievements and remove medals incorrectly granted due to a bug. Go here: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/213...

We just posted updates to PvP in MoP Classic, including to base Resilience, ahead of PvP Season 12's start this week. Go here for full details: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/213...

MoP Classic PvP Vendor Update We've been working to fix the disappearing PvP vendors in MoP Classic, and today we've created copies of each and temporarily placed them in the Vale Shrines. More info and pictures of the vendors here: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/213...

In original Mists of Pandaria, PvP gear wasn't added to the Honor Vendors until Arena Season 12 started. In MoP Classic, we’ve added PvP gear, including Dreadful Gladiator weapons, to these vendors early, so you can use Honor to buy PvP gear ahead of next week's Arena Season. This is all now live!

We're seeing progression bottlenecks around the Horde quests "They're So Thorny!" and "Forensic Science" in MoP Classic, so we've significantly increased the related mob respawn rates and item drop rates. These quests should be much easier to complete now. Thank you for your feedback on this!

We recently made updates to PvP in the MoP Classic pre-patch: - The Honorable Mention perk has been increased to a gain of 250% (was a gain of 10%). - Base resilience increased for players under level 90 to 55% (was 40%). More here: us.forums.blizzard.com/en/wow/t/213...
