World of Warcraft Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

    @_Tom_Henderson_ Just the spreadshit-Mafia following dying trends, nothing new. Remember how every publisher made their MMO after World of Warcraft? Everyone made an shooter after Call of Duty 4. Then came Overwatch and all the Hero-Arena Rip-offs, then Battle Royale, Soulslikes, Live-Service.

  • GarryDaniels82 Garry Daniels (@GarryDaniels82) reported from Lowestoft, England

  • RoryMcDonad KratosAngelus (@RoryMcDonad) reported

    @Warcraft Any updates to Evokers? You know the new hyped Hero class that you haven't done any updates to DPS in awhile when people are complaining about survivability and bugs that have been an issue since beta?

  • Schemer13 Phillip Bona (@Schemer13) reported

  • Auntie_Leafy 🟣Leafy (@Auntie_Leafy) reported

    American people have identity issues. They love to role play. They think our mess here is better than Warcraft. They mistake for a fool and think I dont know what they are.

  • moonyeezylegend Moonyeezy (@moonyeezylegend) reported

    @cunoess @Refractxry @Warcraft Ya this sounds more like a mage crying 😢 I think his problem is freedoms, shifting out of novas, and purges with ranged kicks!

  • tecniclycorect Technically Correct (@tecniclycorect) reported

    @Warcraft The lack of guardian buffs is just astounding at this stage. I can’t even begin to understand the reasoning for leaving it so broken for so long.

  • Aurialiya Jonathan Sykes (@Aurialiya) reported

    @Warcraft Can we fix the severed head with the set though @Warcraft ?

  • Disciple1122 Disciple the {MVG} Gamer (@Disciple1122) reported

  • LadyEzrabette Aunty Rhona (@LadyEzrabette) reported

  • CircadaW Clowncada🐀 (@CircadaW) reported

    @Qwik @Warcraft Do not tell me what to do this month in @warcraft and u won't snag some problems cuzzy 💯🫡

  • BC7_Games ᴘʀᴏꜰɪᴛɪɴɢ ɪɴ ᴀɴʏ ᴍᴀʀᴋᴇᴛ (@BC7_Games) reported

    @Warcraft Fix allied races. Players should be able to pick who they want to play and complete a phase in dragonflight. This going back to old zones and achievements is ridiculous. A new player wont ever be able to enjoy the game that way.

  • BC7_Games ᴘʀᴏꜰɪᴛɪɴɢ ɪɴ ᴀɴʏ ᴍᴀʀᴋᴇᴛ (@BC7_Games) reported

    @mancalledZ @Warcraft After getting another 1000 this week savers will have enough to get 3 mounts next rotation. Problem is they only sell one mount a rotation when they add a mount. Bad strategy to hoard

  • Meggerz1981 Meagan Heron (@Meggerz1981) reported

    @Warcraft Link is broken 😭

  • Foxxura_ Kit Ithil  (@Foxxura_) reported

    @Warcraft Please fix the dragonrider set!! The tattoos is the entire reason I was getting it 😭

  • Vertigo_Collins Vertigo 🎡 (@Vertigo_Collins) reported

    @Warcraft You guys ****** up again! I froze the Mallet and it was not there! And many things from last month got disappeared from my wardrobe such as the pirate outfit and the pink hoodie/cape and scarf/cape too! Fix this please.

  • RussAll2112 The Magic Dragon 🐉😎 (@RussAll2112) reported

    @WoWEsports @Warcraft @Dratnos How about you fix the game, lag all over, crappy professions you can't advance due to the stupid craft restrictions. The craft market is a joke.

  • druidpurrs Bean 🧸 (@druidpurrs) reported

    @Sibylxo_ @WarcraftDevs God I loved the customer service, they would pull of magical **** for you if you were reasonable.

  • Nayukhuut Krys (@Nayukhuut) reported

    @ChiTownFanboy @Warcraft Heh, I wish. They ARE giving Soar the ability to break though. Which honestly feels kinda bad that they're giving us another way to slow down/stop with Soar when the problem was that we didn't have ways to keep going and stay up in the air. :( I like the break skill, but eh.

  • CAJUKIKU Kuma (@CAJUKIKU) reported

    @AstroblackIIX @Warcraft Not at all bro years no new BG and all they do is take some out of rotation when they are broken.

  • Lord_Amhran Kyle Varnell (@Lord_Amhran) reported

    @talknerdytomee @chrisfernando37 @Warcraft You do but I'm assuming the op's issue is like mine in that you do activities and yet when you go to open the chest, even though it says you've gotten X-amount of Tenders you still sit at (in my case) the 600tt before opening the chest
