Greetings All!

The Beta realms will be shutting down for maintenance in a few minutes in order to deploy a new build. I'll be updating this thread with information and time estimates as I receive them. I don't have an exact ETA yet, but these pushes usually take around 8 hours, give or take a few.

I'll be leaving this thread open for general discussion as long as people remain civil and follow forum rules.

No character wipe is planned today.

Here are the patch nots

-Warriors now do 20% increased damage
-Shadow priests now deal 20% less damage
-Hunters no longer deal damage, and instead heal the target


Rogues are scissors.
Warriors are rock.
Hunters, Paladins, Priests, Druids, Mages, and Shamans are Paper.
Warlocks are mushrooms.

Am I doing it right?

It troubles me that no one seemed to get this reference :(

Best video series WoW ever (indirectly) produced imo


Nobody completed the quote! I'm very sad.

Happy now?


Yes!

On a related note, the new build (18996) should start showing up on your Battle.net app shortly, with realms to follow (rough guess is 15-45 min).

I believe a new background is/was pushed for the live retail client, can you make sure you're not in the process of downloading that (which could put your download of the beta build on pause?)
