Do I need to have my artifact weapon equipped to be able to do the "win ten rated battlegrounds" tint unlock now that BfA is out? I'm not sure if the weapon scales for pvp which would make winning difficult.


You don’t need to have your Artifact weapon equipped or transmogged onto the weapon you're using in order to earn progress towards unlocking any Artifact look or tint.

In the newest PTR build, Flaskzertauren will be selling new chest and shoulder items that contain the newest Azerite traits for testing.

Flaskzertauren is located in The Great Seal of Dazar’alor for Horde, and the Harbormaster’s Office in Boralus for Alliance.

With weekly maintenance in each region, we’ve increased the Conquest gained from 2v2 Arenas by 250%, and Rated Battlegrounds by 50%. See our thread here for the details:

PSA: We're currently working on a hotfix that will increase the gold and Azerite rewards from Emissary quests. We hope to have this change live within the next 24 hours, so if you have an active Emissary that rewards gold or Azerite, you may want to wait to complete it!

We've recently pushed a hotfix that should result in fewer Explosive spawns on certain bosses in Underrot, Temple of Sethraliss, and King's Rest on Mythic+ difficulty.

Moments ago, we made the following hotfix live in all regions--
Emissary rewards of gold now provide 2000 gold (was 700).
Emissary rewards of Azerite now provide 1600 total AP (was 1000).

Just did an emissary and only got 1400 AP (1000 from exclusive reward+400 standard emissary AP) Did you typo or is it broken?


This was a typo. The changed total is 1400 AP.

The Alliance Hall of Fame is now full. Starting tomorrow in the Americas, and following with scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, Mythic Uldir will be opened to cross-realm raiding, and the Hall of Fame achievement will no longer be available to Alliance guilds.

-----------------------

For clarification, this means cross-realm Mythic Uldir will be available on EU realms from 7th November 2018 onward.
