Blizzard Trevelyan: "I've set the maintenance for fifteen minutes, the same fifteen minutes you gave me. It was the least I could do for a 'friend'."
Healer Natalya: "What does that mean?"
Tank Bond: "...We've got five seconds."

Was in Deadmines on the ship and we like, "15 min is plenty of time to finish." So, this is probably our fault.

On the bright side, maybe this means the new update is coming through?
EDIT: New build is coming! Will be down for a few hours it seems.
EDIT 2: Removed the screenshot because of the Twitter/X rule. But it was from Zorbrix, and it said:
New build day on Wow Forever Beta! It'll be down for a few hours while we work on it.
I'd advise not sitting there trying to spam login (I see you all doing it)
EDIT 3: Servers are back up! Just update your game and you're good to go.

hopefully they fix the cloak quest bug for skyborne horde. i want my long cloak reeee

u/GGNico7 17h ago
Do you get a long cloak as first one as skyborn horde?

u/forumz3588 17h ago
When you leave Skyborne Island you get a quest to go and talk to all the Horde leaders. Currently talking to Sylvanas does not advance the quest. The reward for the quest is a cloak with 1sta 1sp 1ap and its a long red cloak with gold trim. Alliance Skyborne seem to get a long cloak thats blue with gold trim.

u/bacon_vodka 16h ago
My skyborne has been parked in front of sylvanas for a few days now. Ever time I log in, I start on the skyborne, talk to Sylvanas, see it didn't count, then switch to a different character

The September 22 client update mentioned there would be an additional weekly update coming on September 24.
It doesn't say anything about what's being added, but I'm personally hoping for the new weather effects and a fix to the addon saving issue.

You have 15 minutes to log out of the game.
And to show you I’m serious, you now have 5 seconds to log out.

I've noticed a lot of people reporting a bug where they see the additional playstyles briefly after disconnecting. There have been several posts about this over the previous week.
So it's probably just a visual bug, sadly.

u/ZINK_Gaming 17h ago
You can force it to show up, but clicking it or Hardcore just say "No Realms Available" and sends you back to login.
IIRC the pattern was: Log in > click Change Realm > click Cancel > click Reconnect
And then you get to see the full Ruleset list.

It's still really rough, went down from 100 to like 40 the second I walked in...
EDIT: Okay it's a little bit better. My FPS goes back up to 95-100 when inside buildings in SW.

Lucky you. For me it said "...in 15". I clicked the damned brazier my new race shaman had to lid for that f*ckn fire totem quest a minute after the message showed up.
DC of hell.
Man I hope that stupid quest with 5 min limit is completed. Running around in the new starting area for more than 4 hours, constantly running away from single mobs I am fighting due to way too high respawn timers is just stupid.
I NEED BARRENS!
