Patch 8.1.5 Hotfixes: April 25th Here come the Crucible of the Storms tuning for both bosses, with the Cabal actually getting a buff, instead of the expected nerf. Uu'nat has been made more melee-friendly and received some nerfs to Mythic adds and Unstable Resonance. World of Warcraft WoW Today at 02:38 by Starym

Crucible of Storms Race Day 2: Limit Takes a Break, 3 Kills Today was very eventful after yesterday's lack of action, as we got three kills and a whole lot of progress on Restless Cabal, as well as our first look at Uu'nat, Harbinger of the Void. We've already talked about the impressive Pieces World First earlier, and we've had two more kills since then, with Limit finally getting the boss down and an old familiar face popping back up to the top, as vodkaz took home the World 3rd on the first encounter of Crucible of Storms.

Pieces Take the World First on Restless Cabal Well, it seems Crucible of Storms may yet be one for the books! We have our first World First of the raid, and it's a very special one. Pieces have managed to grab the kill on the Restless Cabal and clear 50% of the raid, ahead of both Limit and Method. This is a pretty big deal as we haven't had a new contender for the World First title in quite a while, especially not from the EU. And while guilds such as Wildcard Gaming and Big Dumb Guild have gotten plenty of WFs in the past, it was only on early bosses with the NA advantage. So for a EU guild to break through and take the boss down, while Limit sit at 9%/7% with their headstart, and Method at 14% and 22%, is incredibly impressive.

Against Overwhelming Odds Clarifications: April 24th There's currently a display error which causes the "Against Overwhelming Odds" quest to show incorrect item level of the reward. Blizzard increased the item level of Azerite rewards to item level 400 and non-Azerite rewards to item level 395 yesterday. World of Warcraft WoW Apr 24, 2019 at 16:54 by Stan 1 comment

Crucible of Storms M Race Day 1: Cabal Lives! Day 1 of the race may have technically been uneventful, but it was plenty important. Crucible was expected to be a very quick race, with the NA advantage proving insurmountable due to the raid's assumed short duration. The Restless Cabal is aiming to disprove that theory, as it's been resisting NA top guilds' best attempts. Limit, Big Dumb Guild and Wildcard Gaming have been going at it since around 5-6 PM CEST yesterday, with Limit having stopped raiding at 8 AM today.

This Week in WoW: April 23rd Crucile of Storms is now available on Mythic & Raid Finder difficulty. This week's events include Noblegarden, Volunteer Guard Day, and the world quest bonus event. World of Warcraft WoW Apr 23, 2019 at 21:08 by Stan

Crucible of Storms Mythic Progress Race Hub The Crucible of Storms Mythic race started today with NA guilds having started their day around 4 hours ago. There were some authentification server issues, but they were resolved within an hour and the first boss, the Restless Cabal, has survived so far. We have Limit at 43 attempts with their best at 39%/46% on the two bosses, so at least the first boss isn't quite as much of a pushover as the others in the larger raids.

While Crucible only has two bosses, the race is really only about the final boss, as we saw in Battle of Dazar'alor, where all 8 pre-Jaina bosses were defeated in two days but she still made it to the very end of the first week. Blizzard have stated that the tuning on Uu'nat is supposed to be on the same level as Jaina, but it's slightly unclear if they meant today's Jaina, after all the nerfs and with the huge item level bump from a fully cleared and farmed Dazar'alor or if they meant the difficulty of Jaina while the top guilds were progressing on her back in February.

The only other changes in the hotfixes are to two Crucible of Storms items in PvP, significantly reducing their effectiveness World of Warcraft WoW Apr 23, 2019 at 04:16 by Starym 8 comments

Vulpera Coming in Patch 8.2.5? Brewfest will be overhauled in Patch 8.2 and while we don't know the exact details yet, Blizzard added mug icons for multiple Allied Races in the initial Build 30080, including the Vulpera. They confirmed no new Allied Races would be coming in Rise of Azshara, so we assume they're leaving them for .5 patches in Battle for Azeroth.

Kevin Johnson Leaves Blizzard Kevin "Cloaken" Johnson announced on Twitter a few days ago that he is leaving the company.

Patch 8.1.5 Hotfixes: April 18th The Restless Cabal truly is restless as we get our second hotfix pass on the encounter in as many days. The rest of the hotfixes are a short list, as you'll be seeing Mindthief's Eldritch Clasp cooldown buff a lot less and Vol'dun regained a whole lot of Alpacas!

Vision of Perfection (the 8.2 Cooldown Essence) Changes Coming Vision of Perfection was one of the Essences announced for the new Heart of Azeroth system coming in 8.2, and it's been causing a bit of a stir because of how powerful it currently is on the PTR.

Limit to Stream Crucible of Storms Mythic Progression Crucible of Storms Mythic opens next week and the next World First race comes along with it. Despite the fact this raid is a whole lot smaller than Battle of Dazar'alor, the only relevant part for the top raiders competing for WF is its difficulty. Considering Blizzard have stated that Uu'nat, Harbinger of the Void is supposed to be as difficult as Lady Jaina Proudmoore, and the first 8 bosses of Dazar'alor all died less than two days after the raid's release, we might actually have a serious race on our hands once again!
