Blizzard Reverses Changes Made to Classic Era - Might of Stormwind World Buff & Druid Polearms Removed
Reading now: 339
Controversially, Blizzard recently released a patch for Classic Hardcore and Classic Era servers that included some changes. Met with backlash from these communities, Blizzard has decided to retroactively remove the Might of Stormwind World Buff and Druids' ability to learn Polearms.
However, it appears that the new Guild UI will be staying in place for the moment, with the team discussing additional options for the future.
Last week, we announced several updates to our Classic Era realms. These updates included changes originally developed for Season of Discovery but intentionally brought to Classic Era as well, such as one that specifically addressed a longstanding imbalance in World of Warcraft Classic, by providing Alliance players with the Might of Stormwind buff as a comparable buff to the Horde’s Warchief’s Blessing.
In that time, we have listened to the community response to changes in Classic Era and the concerns about what updates like this could mean for the future.
Thank you for your feedback.
Effective immediately, we are reversing the following changes to Classic Era:
Alliance players now have access to the Might of Stormwind, to a version of the Warchief’s Blessing world buff effect.
Druids can now train and use polearms.
The 6-hour wait between applications of Rallying Cry of the Dragonslayer and Warchief’s Blessing has been reduced to 1 minute.
For everything it does perfectly, Classic Era is also beloved for its wonderful imperfections. These ‘perfectly imperfect’ elements and balance make up the texture of the overall experience, and we recognize that making changes to these, even with the intent of adding ‘quality of life’ updates – and particularly without discussing them with the community first – was shortsighted.
Thank you, again, for your feedback.
Likewise, we want to provide a bit of insight into UI changes in WoW Classic, and specifically the recent Guild UI update in Classic Era. As we have spoken about.
