The future is now!

We’ve seen some recent feedback on the Catalyst that we’d like to speak to, with a bit of clarification on how we’re updating the Catalyst.

When the Catalyst becomes available in Dragonflight Season 1, there will not be a new currency. Instead, there will be a weekly quest that simply requires doing the same sorts of group content that provides you with Catalyst-eligible gear in the first place. Notably:

• All characters on your WoW account can contribute progress towards completing this quest.
• Completing the quest awards 1 charge to all current and future characters on your WoW account.
• Each of your characters can spend charges individually.

So, if you have done the quest 3 three times, and used 3 charges on your main character, a new alt that reaches level 70 will have 3 charges of their own available.

Thank you very much for your feedback!

Greetings!

Dragonflight Mythic+ testing will once again be available on Beta this weekend. The test period will begin Friday November 4th at 16:00 PDT (19:00 EDT, 01:00 CEST), and end Monday November 7th at 16:00 PDT (19:00 EDT, 01:00 CEST). Please note that the test period may be adjusted in the event of technical difficulties.

This weekend mainly features a lot of tuning, bug fixes, and quality of life improvements. We’d particularly appreciate testing with affixes to help us identify any issues with affix interactions in specific dungeons.

During the test period you’ll be able to acquire and customize Mythic Keystones by talking to the Keystone Vendor in Stormwind or Orgrimmar, and the nearby Dungeon Teleports NPC will assist you with transportation.

We look forward to hearing your feedback!

But wait, there’s more!

We’ve just confirmed that Temple of the Jade Serpent is stable enough be tested this weekend, and it should now be available on Beta. This dungeon received the most changes out of all our returning dungeons in the season 1 pool, so we’re excited to hear any thoughts you have on the updated experience.

We have just updated the Dragonflight PTR to test the following over the weekend:

• The Introductory Quest Line
• Elemental Storms in Badlands and Un’Goro.
  • These Storms will change the surrounding area’s weather and enhance enemies with additional powers.
• The Return of Uldaman as a level 60 dungeon.

This playtest will end on the Dragonflight PTR on Sunday, November 6 at 11:59 p.m. PDT.

Please provide any feedback you have in this thread.

See you there!
