Official Forum Upgrades, 5th Azerite Ring Release Date

The official WoW forums are getting a makeover, following suit with the Overwatch, HotS and BlizzCon ones!

War Mode has been improved recently, with a hotfix that will force a more even ratio of both factions present in each shard. While it's unclear when "some time ago" was exactly, this should help with the faction imbalance players have been encountering. It won't, however, be an instant nor absolute fix for the issue, as it still takes some time for the shard to balance itself out. There will also be more improvements coming with 8.1, including better rewards for the underrepresented faction in the shard. Yesterday at 01:16 by Starym 24 comments
