More Changes to Anniversary Alterac Valley Battleground

Recommended Posts

There's more changes to the anniversary Alterac Valley battleground event, as Blizzard have tuned it more so that certain repetitive quests and turn-ins no longer affect the battle as much. The mines and mount farming for the riders will now only be daily quests and you will not be able to turn them in after the dailies are completed. The timewalking badge rewards for winning and loosing the BG, however are doubled. We already saw significant changes to how Korrak worked in the latest hotfixes, which you can check out here.

You can check out our 15th Anniversary event guide for more details on how to get your AV mounts.

    We have been reviewing your feedback since this event started and while acquiring supplies from the mines and mounts for the ram and wolf riders does contribute to the battle, we agree that these can be a bit repetitive. To that end, we are converting a number of quests within the Battleground into dailies and removing the reward for the repeatable turn-ins. Then to keep the focus on the BG, the amount of Timewarped Bages for both winning and losing are being doubled to 20 and 10 respectively.

    Thank you for your feedback and we’ll see you out there!

    I'm glad they're working on fixing the issue but peeved they didnt think of the consequences of it before it went live.  Blizz seems to not understand the community at all sometimes.

        We have the return of flightstones and crests to dungeons, as well as crest-related achievement fixes, and the reduction of required dreamseeds for the weekly quest arrive to retail in today's hotfixes, with a few improvements for SoD and Cata Classic as well!

        Items
        Fixed an issue that prevented Heroic, Mythic, and Mythic+ dungeons from dropping Flightstones and Awakened Crests correctly. Fixed a bug impacting players’ ability to properly earn “The Awakened Drake”, “The Awakened Wyrm”, and “The Awakened Aspects”, which allow for Awakened Crests to be traded up with Vaskarn in Valdrakken. Quests
        “Blooming Dreamseeds” now require 3 planted seeds instead of 5 as the text originally states.
          Season of Discovery
        Fixed an issue with Efflorescence generating frequent immune messages on totems.
          Cataclysm Classic
        Professor Thaddeus Paleo has returned to Stormwind and Orgrimmar to continue collecting Darkmoon decks and he will continue to do so until the opening of Darkmoon Faire Island.

        Blizzard is rolling back the changes made to the Destruction Warlock's Inferno in Patch 10.2.7 due to unintended scaling reductions.
        Inferno will be redesigned in the War Within expansion to address how Destruction scales in power in relation to target count.
        (Source)
        Hello, Destruction Warlocks.
        With the release of 10.2.7 yesterday, the scaling of Inferno became heavily reduced when Rain of Fire affects more than 5 targets. We investigated this, and found it was a change that was originally implemented with Shadowlands Season 4, and later became unintentionally broken with the launch of Dragonflight and went unnoticed.
        With the release of 10.2.7, the reduced scaling was inadvertently fixed when unrelated changes were made.
        Considering the timing of this, we’re going to remove the reduced scaling. In The War Within, we plan to redesign Inferno to address how Destruction scales in power in relation to target count.
        Thank you for the reports regarding this issue and we hope to have the fix implemented soon.

        With the release of Dark Heart, Blizzard has not only reverted Taivan to his former size, but also added new animations for the goodest boy!
        We've got some great news for Taivan owners. Blizzard not only brought his size up, but also added unique animations for the mount. Previously, Taivan was using wolf mount animations. Now his running animation and /mountspecial is different from what we've seen before the update!

        Many players took to Reddit to share the new size of the goodest boy!

        Here we are looking at week 2 of Season 4, just before the patch 10.2.7 tuning! While the raids change every week and the rankings drastically shift with them, the dungeons remain the same and we get a lot more stability, so let's take a look.
        Warcraft Logs Points
        The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
        All Keys
        95th percentile DPS
        The top 4 remain the same, but we do see Frost Mage on the rise right after that, taking down Outlaw for 5th. Retribution is much improved this week, gaining 5 spots in 7th, with Devastation joining the Paladin on its upward trip, with a very stable Elemental sandwiched between them. Arms closes out the top 10 one spot down.

        Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
        All Percentiles
        The generalist bracket is less stable, as we see a change at No.4 already, with Destruction moving 2 up and pushing Outlaw down. Retribution is on a wild ride here as well, 4 up in 6th, while Frost is slowly making its way upward right behind the Paladin. Arms is actually moving up here unlike in the top percentiles, one up in 8th, just in front of a falling Subtlety and a rising Devastation.

        Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
        U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
        Destruction remains in power in the raw DPS charts, while its fellow Warlock drops down quite a bit as Shadow claims the silver. Elemental rises 2 spots into 3rd just ahead of the unstoppable Retribution, which finds itself 7 up! The rest is mostly the same, just making room for the newcomers, with Unholy closing out the top 10 three spots up.
