The Dragonflight Pre-Expansion Patches Go Live Beginning 26 Oct

I did check my memory. Most recent prepatch event (SL) lasted 2 weeks.

For those who are interested: pre-patch launch lengths.

Sometimes they did give us a longer time period to enjoy events. It would have been nice if they followed those best practices.

Thank you for the this link.
Yes, pre-patch is the time when we can rest in game and don’t do previous grind to just check changes. Especially after the BFA, SL with ton of temporary powers.
I don’t see nothing bad if players will have evokers and pre-patch even earlier, much earlier. We will just farm it, have some fun and test new powers in different combinations.
Be scared that someone will be tired of it and will start to flame - bad move, rly.
I can understand if: week 1- new UI, new talents tree; 2nd week - evokers, test them, skills e.t.c; week 3 - pre-patch event (but better that it’ll start on week 2).
I don’t want to believe that marketing department don’t understand how players want to see the pre-patch time. It’s just so…unprofessional. And if it’s true… It’s very sad that that such workers just be in game industry, they continue to kill it.

Its way to fast, you lot failed in BFA and Shadowlands
Why bring it out so early? You did this with the previous expansions and it was an epic fail i see a pattern here, just take your time with the expansion

Looking forward to the expansion.

Oh goodie, more time gating.

Said nobody, ever.

are legendaries going obsolete or will work inside shadowlands/timewalking??? bump please any1 know

So much this.
Why even bother with part 1 on 26th Oct? All we get is the new UI and Talent Trees. We don’t need three weeks to get used to these.
One week for new UI and Talent Trees and Three weeks for actual content would be the better way to go.

Just quit already

i’d watch my tone my friend or else you violate the almighty ToS

good cause all my characters are ilvl 200 at most… and i dont plan to get catchup gear.

this is just a sign that DF will be another timegated mess just like shadowlands.

Are we getting the SL pvp cosmetic vendors (the mark of honour ones) with the pre patch, and if so what phase?

this!
i need to know too!!

I doubt that

Your threats mean nothing im tired of the toxic and whiney community that wow has been plauged with if you all hate it so much simply leave no one wants that sheepish behaviour anyway, And you believe you have a sense of power because you can throw around TOS i only come here to read posts regarding dragonflight replying is not important to me nor are the forums anyway as they are just filled with entitled cry babies that simply say stuff purely because they think it makea them look cool or "different " when ironically it only makes them look the same. If you cannot handle the simple straight forward fact of if you hate something leave it then you need tougher skin but i remove the power you feel over reporting my comment like a child by simply not caring because i genuinely dont.

Like the streamers all bash wow yet they would be no where without it they’ve got no intelligence or free thinking just herd mentality

Maybe it’s just me, but to me it seems there is complete lack of hype.
There is basically one week to pre patch, and few seems interested.

Shadowlands really tanked the game.
Season 4 was cool, but didn’t bring back hype or excitement.

Most people i know haven’t pre ordered or really feel like returning.
The damage is done.

Breaking the prepatch into phases seems like “yeah guys it’s unready” statement, based on their recent releases.
