The official update notes for the January 21, 2020 Battle for Azeroth Season 4 update have arrived.

Read them here.

Thank you. <3

I haven’t ever been gone. Just working primarily on the front page so any comments have been there. With the changeover to our comment system “soon ™”, I’ve been creating and replying to threads here.

I’ve been watching though. Always watching.

It’s Azerothian, clearly.

Rat. But I won’t tell Squeakers you called him a mouse.

You can buy the mount just on its own too, but the subscription is a good deal for those already planning to re-up and saves a little money for them (plus the mount in the deal.)

Death Knight might be the right call in this case.

Add some mischief to your mount collection with the brand-new Squeakers, the Trickster mount, available now for purchase in-game and from the Blizzard Shop. For a limited time, you can also get this clever rat with your purchase of a 6 Month World of Warcraft subscription.

Yes. For those who didn’t get to (or chose not to) run through this dungeon in Mythic, going through it in Heroic will count toward unlocking the mecha-gnomes.

Visions of N’Zoth opens the doors on Heroic Difficulty Operation: Mechagon, giving players the opportunity to experience this mechanically marvelous dungeon in two parts—the Junkyard and the Workshop.

The content update is now live and N’Zoth awaits.

Begin your quest as Allied Races with big savings on Race Change and Faction Change services.

Is there going to be a way to check your progress towards completing through to “A Way Home” with Magni Bronzebeard?

Getting to this point in Nazjatar is very short. It happens just after you get to the hub. After that, the quests flow from one into the other very easily as they’re part of the continuing story.

I do not know what these ‘adjustments’ will mean, but will something be done to lower Operation Mechagon to a Heroic Dungeon?

Yes, it will be at Heroic level when Operation Mechagon goes live with the two parts.

You’ll need to do it on an Alliance character to unlock them.

We’re not CS reps, and we work directly with the developers to provide answers. We won’t always have the answers to share (or that you want to hear) for myriad reasons. If we’re giving a specific answer, it’s because we’ve spoken with them to get those answers to share. We aren’t input/output robots, though. What you see from us is the tip of the iceberg of what we do.

Keep in mind, our CS reps are incredible people and do a lot of hard work behind the scenes with a lot of 1 on 1 interactions that I know many appreciate.

I know. They stole candle and now I’m sad.

The benefit of the change we’re going through though is that the community will be able to engage on our news articles and each other better. It also means that if we (those of us working on those articles) engage or answer a question, it will be seen versus buried in the comments. I’m sure those who used to comment on the front page articles can attest to the difficulty in following conversations there.

We engage where we can. I can’t promise more than that and the rate of engagement (how much is enough or too little) is subjective.

I’m not offended, I’m just clarifying that my role (these days) isn’t regular engagement. I’ve been focused for quite a while on front page content (writing, scheduling, formatting etc. on a global scale) for the site. I’ve been here since pre-Burning Crusade and am coming up on 14 years here. Not seeing me just means I’m focused on getting my work done.
