Hello everyone, this is the World of Warcraft Weekly Report.

[World of Warcraft Weekly Report] is mainly composed of three parts: "Major World of Warcraft Events", "World of Warcraft Competitive Dynamics" and "World of Warcraft Game Updates".

Let’s take a look at what Warcraft news there is that is worth sharing recently!

【World of Warcraft Event】

Is there an enhanced version of World of Warcraft Classic Plus? The Chinese server may be the first to be released!

Recently, a player posted on the Reddit forum that he had received a questionnaire from Blizzard about the "new nostalgic server", which hinted at the existence of the enhanced version of the nostalgic server Plus and asked players how interested they were in the big picture that Metzen had drawn up at the end of last year - new quests that had never been seen before, new factions and reputations, and a complete remake of the old group book...


Later, when NetEase answered questions from Classic Server players, it was confirmed that the Plus enhanced Classic Server was under development and would be launched globally this year. Considering the calls from Chinese players for the Plus version of Classic Server, this enhanced version of Classic Server is likely the result of a discussion between NetEase and Blizzard.


This also means that Chinese players will most likely be the first to play on this server, even if Blizzard is not yet ready to open it globally. After all, on the Internet, Blizzard designers did not mention this Plus enhanced version too much, but it was NetEase that first released the news that it would be launched this year.

Diablo 4 and World of Warcraft 11.0! A large number of classic appearances are reproduced

Recently, the new DLC of "Diablo 4" and "World of Warcraft" 11.0 officially announced a linkage plan. The Diablo 4 store will first launch five sets of classic World of Warcraft appearances, namely, Xal'atath Necromancer, Sylvanas Ranger, Varian Barbarian, Satyr Druid and Kael'thas Mage.






Although the Chinese server has not yet announced the launch plan of "Diablo 4", as this event progresses, "World of Warcraft" 11.0 should also launch the corresponding dark-themed appearance, so everyone can look forward to it.

Filial piety leads to strength! World of Warcraft 11.0 recreates the regicide plot, comparable to Arthas 2.0

Recently, "World of Warcraft" 11.0 released the preview plot animation "Threads of Fate", which mainly tells the story of the new spider queen Ansurek killing the king and the mother, which is comparable to Arthas 2.0.


Through the animation, we can see that the old queen Nephaleis, who originally ruled the Spider Kingdom, was very wise. She decisively rejected the alliance request from Ny'alotha N'Zoth and wanted to lead the Spiders to walk their own path.


But she was tricked by her own daughter Ansurek, who stabbed her half to death with a sneak attack, and she was also handed over to Xal'atath for biochemical research, who created the Void Abnormality that was a fusion of the Spider Demon and the black blood of the Ancient God. This really reached a new level of filial piety.


From this preview animation, you can clearly feel the improvement of Blizzard's screenwriter skills. The characters are no longer simply good and evil, but have different purposes. Of course, this does not rule out that Blizzard is just very good at describing the plot of regicide and matricide. As for whether the plot of 11.0 is a god or a ghost, you have to watch it to know.

【World of Warcraft Competitive Dynamics】

I have never worked on World of Warcraft. The insider revealed that World of Tarris has laid off employees.

Recently, an insider revealed online that Tencent's QQ Warcraft "World of Tarris" has begun layoffs, attracting a lot of attention from netizens.


According to the blogger's comment, the message was "a chat record between a friend of my boss who often buys gold from me and him. His friend's friend is an employee of Tarris. I won't make any comments. I'm just having fun. How you interpret it is up to you."


Of course, regardless of whether there are layoffs or not, the current situation of "World of Tarris" is still quite difficult. Mainly compared to "World of Warcraft", there is too little content that can be played in the later stages of this game. There are only a few dungeons over and over again, and players graduate much faster than the duration of the season. It is really difficult to match World of Warcraft in terms of playability.


A beautiful new island is online! Ragnarok begins the second part of Wind of Destiny

The large-scale MMORPG two-dimensional online game "Ragnarok" with Celtic mythology as the background has updated the new main storyline on August 7 - G26 "Wind of Destiny" Part 2.

After successfully defeating Puya, Delga mysteriously disappeared. The remaining team members searched around Irene and found a note that seemed to have her whereabouts. They tried to find her through the clues on the note...Where did Delga go? What is she hiding?


Along with the main storyline G26 Wind of Destiny II, a beautiful new island, Moonlight Island, is launched. This is Milesian's exclusive island, which Milesian can build and decorate as he likes, and can also invite NPCs to move in and make it his own exclusive island.


A real and shocking game world! The new server "Bai Yu Jing" of "The Legend of Demons" is now open

"The Legend of Conquering Demons" is an eye-catching large-scale oriental fantasy demon hero PK online game, which opens a gripping adventure. The story background of the game is set in ancient times. The demon emperor Donghuang Taiyi indulged his ten sons, the Golden Crows, to wreak havoc on the human world. The human hero Houyi used the power of the entire clan to build the Sun-shooting Bow, shot and killed nine Golden Crows, and saved the human world from disaster. However, this aroused the anger of Donghuang Taiyi, and the battle between immortals and demons broke out.


At 14:00 on August 7, the new server of "The Legend of Conquering Demons" [Bai Yujing] will be launched! Log in to receive SS-level costumes, SS-level weapons, millions of silver bills, massive amounts of spiritual stones and other gifts, as well as 3 times the pre-charge return, 6.6 times the first charge return, 3 times the cumulative charge return and many other new server activities can be completed!


【World of Warcraft Game Update】

Fury Warrior is perfect? ​​The first round of class balance in the pre-release version will be launched on August 15

On August 9, the official server of World of Warcraft released the 11.0.2 update notes, and the first round of class balance in the pre-version that players have been looking forward to was finally launched. Among them, the three popular plate armor heroes, Ice DK and Retribution Paladin, were nerfed, and only Fury Warrior was perfect. The popular hunter class in the national server was weakened in all three classes, which made players complain.


Of course, where there are weakenings there are buffs. Old ranged professions like Ice Mage, Destruction Warlock, and Balance Druid have benefited from this wave of balance. It seems that mage teams will become popular again in subsequent Chinese server dungeons.


Blizzard cuts Ulduar's difficulty again, and this time players agree

In terms of nostalgic servers, Blizzard has once again weakened the difficulty of the Ulduar raid, but unlike the last time when it simply gave players a 15% enhancement BUFF, the health of the raid monsters will be reduced by 50%, which means that players can quickly skip the long and boring plot line in front of Ulduar and go directly to the door of the BOSS while keeping the strength of the boss unchanged.


Almost no player did not applaud this change, because even for those players who did not want the magical changes, there seemed to be nothing inappropriate about being able to reach the BOSS room faster.


By the way, NetEase also announced the changes to the subsequent group dungeons in advance. The Trial of the Crusader will not make any data adjustments because the rhythm of the group dungeon itself is relatively tight, and Icecrown Citadel should open the "Hellscream's Warsong" and "Might of Wrynn" BUFFs in advance, and NetEase will shorten the process of fighting monsters in the front based on actual feedback from players.


In short, in order to catch up with the pace of opening CTM on foreign servers, the "shelf life" of the Chinese WLK nostalgic server will definitely be shortened, so everyone can be mentally prepared in advance.
