  • ReyneRobin RobinReyne (@ReyneRobin) reported

    @WarcraftDevs would it be possible to add an option to change the color of enemy incoming ground DoTs that we should step out of? I am having trouble noticing them because their color blends in really well in enviorment , i need a color that screams look here to react quickly 😞

  • AlyraTroll James (@AlyraTroll) reported

    WoW wishlist. Inscriptions Glyphs expanded/revamped. They gave a rubbish excuse as to why they won't add new glyphs and it is because it could confuse pvp players. utter rubbish if that was such an issue then just disable them in pvp! #WorldOfWarcraft

  • gothycrip Lady Dommitrescu (@gothycrip) reported

    broken, and *is* coming up as playable, and that works absolutely fine. Warcraft and Lutris, also working fine. I manually uninstall all the games and reset the cache and repair the Steam install folder just to double check. Restart my device, and it tells me I need to download

  • Max_NeoS N (@Max_NeoS) reported

    @WarcraftDevs Solo shuffle healers need 60% winrate or better to climb. If you maintain a 50-55% winrate you will actually just lose rating. Your new mode will be completely dead in a month if you dont fix it. Team MMR is the only solution. you know, Like every game ever made

  • Drpiggyrespect Drpiggyrespect (@Drpiggyrespect) reported

    @Warcraft @TheWindstalker You’ve got issues going on right now where LFG/LFR is broken and random BG queue is 25 min and unable to select roles and social window is broken not showing anyone

  • Rurka_ ⵜⴰⵢⵔⵉ (@Rurka_) reported

    @Qwik @Warcraft @TheWindstalker maybe time to fix BM pet IA one day

  • Adriankingdom_ Aramus (@Adriankingdom_) reported

    @Iness_Lea @Warcraft @TheWindstalker im pretty sure this is a graphics card issue, personally i have the same issue

  • 1kUnohana Erick (@1kUnohana) reported

    @Iness_Lea @Warcraft @TheWindstalker Okay so it’s not just me. I thought it was we an addon glitch (Elvui) but I guess it’s a game bug.

  • NavalDragon 🌊 NavalFox 🦊 (@NavalDragon) reported

    Are warcraft story's not working? @BlizzardCS

  • DruidPax Pax Druid (Christmas Checkmark) (@DruidPax) reported

    @PirateFurball @lemongraceful YO REAL TALK THO. I posted my comment before seeing yours, sorry for double posting about it, but this is a constant issue. My little sister started world of warcraft and I had her turn off trade and general chats literally after logging in for the first time because of this.

  • 1001tqt Graphic evolution guy (@1001tqt) reported

    @Warcraft Fix the game!

  • NotAvailable128 Bernd ⭕️🇺🇦 (@NotAvailable128) reported

    @Qwik @Warcraft @TheWindstalker Hey Mike, the dungeonfinder doesn’t work. Is there a fix on the way?

  • Ice3317 Ice (@Ice3317) reported

    @alittlefeller @GavinradB @WarcraftDevs It puts people in a different instance to lighten the lag. There could be thousands of people in one instance of SW, but with sharding it could divide people into 50 and have 20 shards. Those 1000 people would be scattered across the 20 shards.

  • adammdray Adam Ray (@adammdray) reported

    @jaxirl @WarcraftDevs get in line... my edit mode broke along with several other players and there is just straight up no way to play the game without using a ui addon I have reported it several times and there is a forum thread but it's been weeks with no word on a fix

  • Ice3317 Ice (@Ice3317) reported

    @ze3rax @GavinradB @WarcraftDevs I don't know why it wouldn't be. A week before launch, they took sharding away and caused a lot of lag. When DF came out, they were forced to shard everything again because the sheer amount of people in SW and waiting to go to the Dragon Isles was breaking the game.

  • Fawaf19 Fawaf 🏳️‍⚧️ (@Fawaf19) reported

    @Khanlusa kinda glad to see how this universe grew over time, especially with the help of the MMO, but yeah, it's not an issue. If it would be an issue, then Warcraft would just be another bland Orcs VS Humans game with no change in the series at all.

  • Paulgra92249221 Paul grant (@Paulgra92249221) reported

    @Warcraft @TheWindstalker fix the damn pvp. its awful.

  • ArcticDragoon Arc (@ArcticDragoon) reported

    @Loblec From what I heard, this one wasn't outsourced and redone last minute. Kinda hoping Microsoft does end up buying Blizzard and giving Warcraft 3 to the Age of Empires guys to fix.

  • Takhsick 🐉🎄❄️ Takhsick ❄️🎄🐲 (@Takhsick) reported

    @Warcraft @TheWindstalker This is nice to see. If you guys actually keep up pvp tuning and listen to pvpers, and try to fix the problems with solo shuffle then I stg I will be the happiest hunter alive

  • gate_sinners Joshuaj, the Dragonslayer (@gate_sinners) reported

    @Warcraft @TheWindstalker We reallt should've had this for WoD and SL... But I'm not mad. Those expaxs had issues for different reasons (unfortunately). DFs future sounds VERY promising, at the very least. And that's good!!!

  • IdInvaded Id_invaded - ⚡Edgerunner ⚡ (@IdInvaded) reported

    @WarcraftDevs @WatcherDev Can you fix Nightborne Female posture they stand weird,run weid,move weird rework skeleton.

  • DruidofLore Druid of Lore (@DruidofLore) reported

    @lemongraceful LMAO well admitedly as gross as that is. That's inevitably gonna lead to issues given eugenics exist in the Warcraft setting and knowing blizzard? They'd make a knee jerk reaction to ban anyone even mentioning the idea even in a lore context.

  • StudioAlien1 StudioAlien (@StudioAlien1) reported

    @ChronoKatie I did with Warcraft, I went through that spell of it not working for me, of feeling the grind, the story not clicking. I came back to it, I found a new story I loved and in the meantime I had found other things too. Maybe this your time to discover something new. :)

  • Franknstyn1 Franknstyn (@Franknstyn1) reported

    Experiencing bug on Raszageth where the smaller adds aren't spawning off the big add once shield is broken, preventing our side from jumping to p2 platform... anyone know what causes? #worldofwarcraft

  • Swygdornn Swygdornn (@Swygdornn) reported

    @Thegamer9610 @Warcraft @TheWindstalker If that was their reason, why didn't they start with them? I wouldn't have a problem if we hadn't been waiting 3 years for the core races to get theirs. These come glacially slow.

  • tonyvsmontana Tony Friberg (@tonyvsmontana) reported

    @Warcraft @TheWindstalker Dungeon Q isnt working. Fix it, EU.

  • Stealthsptv Stealthsp (@Stealthsptv) reported

    @chervzTV @WarcraftDevs @holinka Haven’t been playing seriously tho patiently waiting for blizz to fix all imperfections
