They test stuff ??? since when

Since everyone overloaded their forum software with whines since Wednesday! It’s costing them more to keep the web-hamsters running around their wheels than fixing and testing the game!

We’re working on major updates to the Radiant Echoes event, based on your feedback.

Since the event went live, we’ve been working to address two main concerns: the wait time for the event, and the rate at which you can earn rewards.

We’re quickly changing it so that the event rotates between zones once each hour, and while the Radiant Echoes are active in a zone, they will remain up for the entire hour.
Now you’ll defeat the memory scenarios that surface, and after enough are defeated, the zone boss will rise. After the zone boss is defeated, the memories will begin resurfacing again, repeating the event immediately. If you’re still interested in farming the basic mobs that appeared when the event ended, you’ll find that those remain available in the other zones.

As far as the rewards are concerned, we’ve re-evaluated the numbers and increased earnings. You’ll see the scenarios and bosses giving more currency than before, in addition to providing flightstones and crests so you can upgrade your gear with the vendors now present in Dalaran. The increased rate of completing scenarios and killing bosses should also result in many more drops coming your way.

We spotted players funneling the weekly quests from their alts to their mains, and we don’t want that to feel necessary, so these quests will now be account-bound and they will repeat daily instead of weekly.

As a reminder, you’re still able to transfer the residual memories currency between members of your warband as you wish.

There are some other things we’re working on, such as the occasional scenario getting stuck and not completing. But with this new format, even if a scenario gets stuck, there will be others around that you can switch to and continue to make progress.

TLDR: More, faster, rewards, bugfixes, we hear you!

please make it so you dont get credit for the event if you’re in a raid group. they’re lagging up the servers something stupid and people dont listen

[Arromonk-kazzak]

Came here specificly just to say thanks , keep up the work on feedback!
ps. reduce the crests farming needed in TWW thanks

[Malicone-twisting-nether (Malicone)]

Any words about servers? Why dont you address the lag problem?

[Arromonk-kazzak]

I assume this will largly fix it self now that you can hop in and do the content when ever you want, not everyone rushing at the same time doing it, or thats what I´m hoping at least.

[Aloth-azjolnerub]

What about fixing the bug where it gets to 5 memories down but doesnt register the 6th so the end boss never spawns?

Ive wasted an hour today tryign to complete the weekly due to this

[Enix-die-nachtwache]

sorry but that you have to work on this pre event is ridiculous. This feels like you would add the first event to a game. How in the world could you not know this will be bad. Please start removing the quality team and exchange it with players who play wow.

[Naethir-antonidas]

@Clergy-the-shatar

changing the quests to account wide is a kick in the chuckies for alt armies

Jup; they should at least keep it at four times repeatable with alts, after all, playing four characters is what the warband theme promotes.

[Bornim-argent-dawn]

How dare those customers complain about a broken product.

[Enix-die-nachtwache]

please go a step further and remove the 1 hour time frame. for no reasons someone needs to wait 1 hour. It was bad in Dragonflight and will be again here…

[Windgrace-kelthuzad]

1.) intentionally release a timewasting mess
2.) come back with a “we hear you” post shortly after
3.) ???
4.) profit

[Fylonix-khadgar]

Nice one Blue guys, great to see you are still out there.

[Dorphin-argent-dawn]

Expect much of the same at the start of TWW and at the start of every patch.

It’s just how it is.

[Tæzu-silvermoon]

I Don’t think you understand what we are complaining about too here… my 2nd alt hasn’t got a single loot from doing the northrend one at all and the lag is definitely making it think that i didn’t and other do the event at all and this is unacceptable.

before trying to do these changes maybe you need to look into the massive horrible lag that is causing the event system to think that 99% of players aren’t doing which in fact we are before increasing the rewards and etc.

[Toxipex-kazzak]

Cheers, I guess. I just don’t get why it was released in this state in the first place though. This game has existed for two decades. I don’t understand why you have to learn these lessons over and over, year after year.

[Antalante-norgannon]

At least something is happening…
This is one of those “let’s bring it out the worst possible way and get credit for improving, showing how we listen to the people” things right there.
Because otherwise it would mean the people at Blizzard actually thought the Prepatch event as it went live was okay. And I don’t actually believe they are that stupid.

[Tæzu-silvermoon]

believe me they are and atm the rewards and etc isn’t the main concern here its the fact that the lag is causing the event system to think that 99% of players aren’t doing the event which in fact we are and we haven’t got a single loot from it at all.

[Euthyrox-crusader-strike]

My main issue is the terrible lag during the whole event. It’s impossible to do anything but watch as bosses HP is going down. It’s rather hilarious to what WoW has gotten nowadays.
