Temporary solution to "WoW being broken"

Don’t know if this will work for everyone, but disabling all addons worked for me. :slight_smile:

It’s most likely a specific addon causing the issue, and maybe someone else will figure out which one, but in my case I’ll be trying out a “no addon day” for now. :slight_smile:

No it isnt.

People really are jumping on the “addons bad” train lately huh ?

Hehe nice try rage baiting. :joy:

Hey if it works, it works. :person_shrugging: Once they fix the issues I’ll enable my addons again, but for now after a long work day I just wanna play some Remix. :slight_smile: Even if that means I’m forced to disabling addons for a few hours.

The CM’s themselves on the technical forums have said its not an addon issue.

I have logged in and out 20+ times, and only 1 time I managed to pick up 1 quest.

I disabled my addons, and now it plays flawlessly. :person_shrugging:

Would be one heck of a coincidence if the game “got fixed” in the second I disabled addons.

Many players have tried the with/without AddOns method and both retail and Remix still break.

A Blue Post elsewhere in the Technical Forums mentioned they were investigating a Syncing issue between local game clients and the game servers which is the most likely culprit. Explains exactly why the game tends to break immediately after completing an action in the game whether it be combat, interaction, UI modification (Edit Mode) or whatever.

If changes at one end or the other aren’t syncing up, the whole thing will just break.

how is it broken

Still working :smile: :crossed_fingers:

Many players can’t accept quests, trade currency, log out, or do other things in both Remix or Retail.

This is the Blue post that specifically states it’s not an AddOns issue.

I’m aware :slight_smile:

I’m just stating what I did to get it working on my end. :slightly_smiling_face:

All I’m saying is give it time and it’ll still break. It may take longer without AddOns loaded because there will be less traffic between the servers and your game client by default, but it will still happen.

Even if it just delays the bug from happening, disabling addons got me from “not being able to accept a single quest”, to almost finishing the Dalaran intro scenario.

Which is a big improvement. :slight_smile:

I’ll update in here if I do encounter the bug again, but so far I’m going strong. :slightly_smiling_face:

EDIT:

1 hour & 20min in, and I got bugged out of using my DKs Death Gate after doing the first artifact quest. But after relogging it works again with no issues for now.

Can confirm I’ve been getting some of these issues while playing with 0 addons.

I admittedly had more issues with addons on, couldnt even complete the initial Dalaran quest. With that said, I would surmise it isnt an addon-only-issue because I’ve been DC’d and loading screen stuck etc without the addons. However, deactivating them did help alot.

Being in the Shaman order hall for instance bugged TF out and I got rolled back when relogging (once again)
