Known Issues for December 10 (source)
Greetings and welcome to WoW Classic patch 1.13.3!
Below is a list of known issues for WoW Classic patch 1.13.3. Please note that this list is not comprehensive and is not a complete depiction of what we’re aware of, but a sampling of issues we believe players may encounter with some regularity. We hope to have fixes to these issues in place soon, but we cannot promise when or if any individual bug will be fixed.
Battlegrounds
Alterac Valley: The Frostwolf Battle Standard and Stormpike Battle Standard are currently using models that do not match Original WoW Warsong Gulch: The particle effects projected from the Alliance Flag are too bright User Interface
The “Toggle Keyring” option is missing from the Keybinds menu The Oozeling’s Disgusting Aura does not display a debuff in the character’s debuff tray System Settings
Certain PCs may incorrectly default to integrated graphics adapters Workaround: Open the System Menu via the Escape key and select System -> Advanced -> Graphics Card and select the correct GPU Lastly, please also note that we do not list any issues here that we are aware of that could be considered exploitative, and as per the forums Code of Conduct 1 we would ask you not to post information in this forum about any potential exploits that you have discovered. If you believe you’ve found an exploit, please email hacks@blizzard.com directly with the relevant details.
Thank you!

With the arrival of the two initial battleground to Classic we have a clarification on how exactly the Warsong Gulch vendors worked in Vanilla and now, most importantly that you'll only see the related items when you have enough reputation and that new items will be coming in a later phase.
WSG Vendors (source)
With the patch and battlegrounds now live, we wanted to take a moment to look at the Warsong Gulch vendors. They worked in original WoW and now work in WoW Classic like this:
Warsong Gulch vendor lists only appear when you have the required reputation. You should see the text “What items have I earned the right to purchase?” and, when you’re Neutral with your WSG faction, you should find that you don’t have the right to purchase anything. Warsong Gulch vendors will only sell items from their original list of consumables (and one tabard) for now. Additional items that were added to original WoW in patch 1.6 will become available when Blackwing Lair opens in 2020. See you in the flag room!

The time has come to put your PvP skills to the test. The Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley Battlegrounds are now available in WoW Classic.
WARSONG GULCH
Test your teamwork in this 10v10 capture-the-flag Battleground. The first team to capture three of the opposing team’s flags wins the match and earns Honor toward their PvP ranking.
To join the Battleground, you’ll need to be at least level 10 and visit the Battlemaster in one of the capital cities to queue or, if you’re feeling adventurous, travel to the Battleground in the Northern Barrens (for the Horde) or Ashenvale (for the Alliance).
You’ll be matched up with other players within a specific level bracket as follows:
10–19
20–29
30–39
40–49
50–59
60
ALTERAC VALLEY
Step into Alterac Valley and prepare to engage in a battle for every square meter across this Battleground. You’ll need to coordinate with your team in a 40v40 grudge match to see who will come out on top.
To queue for this Battleground, you’ll need to be at least level 51 at the Battlemasters within the capital cities or head out into Alterac Mountains to queue up there.
You and your team will need to coordinate to complete PvE and PvP objectives to win. You’ll control key locations such as mines, towers, and graveyards, which will help you push further into the map toward the main objective—the opposite faction’s general—Vanndar Stormpike for the Alliance or Drek’Thar for the Horde. You can make this task easier for you and your team by destroying enemy towers and killing the elites guarding the generals.
You’ll also be able to turn in resources that can be looted from mobs and players that can be turned in to gain additional bonuses and aid to your side’s cause of crushing the enemy.
Earning reputation within this Battleground for the Stormpike Guard of the Alliance or Frostwolf Clan for the Horde will open up access to new rewards. You can also gain additional reputation by undertaking a variety of quests within the Battleground.
What are you waiting for? Get in there!

Blizzard recently posted an update on the Honor Calculation Bug, which has been affecting WoW Classic servers for some time now. They ran a repair script to fix the results of weeks 1 & 2, but the bug caused players to have a higher rank than intended despite the missing kills.

What about 1st 2 weeks Blizzard?
Did somebody say, “What about the first two weeks?”
I’m glad you asked, because earlier today, we ran a repair script to fix the results of weeks 1 and 2, and that change should be visible to affected players now.
During weeks 1 and 2, as many of you have noted here, kills during certain time periods weren’t being counted in the daily roll-ups, which in turn caused them not to count toward your weekly standing. This resulted in players getting the wrong standing relative to one another, and the wrong amount of rank points. Some players got too many rank points, while others got too few.
Even if you didn’t get all your kills counted, you might have had a higher rank than you ought to, because somebody with a similar standing was missing even more kills (or higher value kills) than you were.
We had all the kills recorded, but because ranks are a result of relative standings, and each week is affected by previous weeks, we couldn’t just apply a repair for missing kills, we had to re-run the jobs for all 3 weeks to figure out what your correct ranking ought to be right now, and we did exactly that. We didn’t want to take anything away from anybody who might have been blissfully unaware of this problem, so after calculating the correct rank points for everybody in this region, we only adjusted the rank points of anybody who’s rank points were too low, to raise their ranking up to the point that it ought to be.
Now that that fix has been applied, we’re in a good state to head into battlegrounds.
Thanks again for your patience!
See you in Azeroth!

Update: The patch notes were edited and the Keyring will in fact only scale to 12 slots for keys.

You can check out our battlegrounds guide for all of classic here or head to the specific AV and WSG ones.
1.13.3 Patch Notes (source)
With scheduled weekly maintenance in each region, we will update WoW Classic to version 1.13.3, which includes several updates to the game. We will deploy this patch with weekly maintenance starting at 7:00 a.m. PST (10:00 a.m. EST) on Tuesday, December 10.
World of Warcraft Classic Version 1.13.3
Battlegrounds
The fields of battle are open, and the Alliance and Horde are set to clash over Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley.
Warsong Gulch is a 10v10 game of capture-the-flag, with each faction attempting to carry their opponents’ flag all the way back to their own base, while preventing the opposition from doing the same. Players fight in level-ranges in Warsong Gulch: 10-19, 20-29, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, and level 60.
Alterac Valley is a large 40v40 tug-of-war zone, with many quests, objectives, and areas of interest. All players at level 51 and higher are placed into a single level-range in this epic struggle, with rewards via reputation as well as quest rewards. Some Alterac Valley rewards are highly sought, such as Don Julio’s Band, Lei of the Lifegiver, and Ice Threaded Arrows/Bullets.
The Alliance entrance to Warsong Gulch is in Silverwing Grove in Ashenvale Forest, and the Horde entrance is near Mor’shan Base Camp in the northern Barrens. The Alliance and Horde entrances to Alterac Valley are in northern Hillsbrad Foothills. Both Warsong Gulch and Alterac Valley can also be entered by speaking with the appropriate battlemaster in your capital city.
Battlegrounds are cross-realm, which means you’ll fight alongside allies and against opponents from all of the realms in your region.
Elemental Invasions
Across Kalimdor, Blazing, Thundering, Watery, and Whirling Invaders now occasionally appear in Un’goro Crater, Azshara, Winterspring, and Silithus respectively. The elementals appear to be seeing just how far into these territories they can penetrate before being beaten back by the forces of the Horde or the Alliance.
Keyring
The key button in your micro menu now opens your Keyring, an additional bag for keys only, that scales up to hold 12 keys.
Additional Updates
The lua API has been modified to prevent some addons from using communications channels in ways that are contrary to the spirit of the game. This patch includes client support for the Paid Character Transfer service, which may be enabled at a future date. The World of Warcraft Classic executable file on your PC has been renamed. Bug fixes. Blizzard is also preventing addons from communicating over custom player-created chat channels in the forthcoming update.
Lua API Changes (source)
With the release of World of Warcraft Classic 1.13.3, we’re making a change to disallow calling C_ChatInfo.SendAddonMessage with the CHANNEL ChatType. This will prevent addons from communicating over custom, player-created chat channels.
Addons will still be able to communicate using PARTY, RAID, GUILD, and WHISPER in the same ways that they can now. Additionally, we are going to test a change to permit C_ChatInfo.SendAddonMessage to be called with SAY and YELL, allowing your addons to communicate with players in your immediate vicinity.
We support using addons to customize your gameplay experience. However, we also want to ensure that we preserve the social dynamics that make Classic what it is. Ultimately, we decided that the ability for addons to send invisible messages to large, arbitrary groups of players all across Azeroth was something that risked undermining those social dynamics.
Thank you!
