WoW: Forever known issues after launch, and what to do about each

Every launch ships with a list. These are the WoW: Forever ones that affect how you play in the first week, with the workaround where there is one.

A launch week has two kinds of problems: the ones that stop you playing and the ones that quietly cost you time. The second kind matters more, because nobody warns you. Here is the list as it stands, kept short on purpose and updated as fixes land.

WoW: Forever

  • Escort quests failing to complete. Blizzard is investigating; if an escort NPC stalls, abandon and re-accept rather than waiting it out, and do them in quieter hours.
  • Ruins of Lordaeron dungeon quests gained new prerequisites after launch. If the quest giver has nothing for you, finish the zone chain first.
  • Group phasing. After joining a group you may not see the others until you phase; moving between subzones or relogging resolves it.
  • Queues on the PvP ruleset in the evening. The Normal ruleset is the same world without the wait.

If you hit something that is not here, the official news is on the WoW: Forever news page, and the records timeline there notes anything that changes the rules.
