1.13.7 when?

[Billbrobagin-herod]

On 1-20-2021 they announced a few changes for wow classic were hitting the PTR. 7 weeks have passed and and to no surprise, no updates from blizz. I know rumors of TBC beta for March 16th so maybe they plan on dropping then? But it seems odd 1.13.7 is locked away in purgatory when the community is overall excited for the updates.

lets assume there are bugs they are fixing because of the removal of batching. It was made clear that people wanted to retain some of the play associated with batching without having batching, so that is what we can kinda assume is happening.

There are numerous class abilities and spells from Original World of Warcraft that were re-implemented in WoW Classic with spell batching in mind, and we initially expect bugs or adverse consequences with spell batching reduced. In this PTR, testers have an opportunity to join us in finding such issues. Raids and battlegrounds are available in this PTR to facilitate testing in a wide variety of game content.

• Initially, the spell batch window is set to 10 milliseconds on the 1.13.7 PTR, a reduction from the 1.13.6 live window of 400 milliseconds.

From what I have heard they are trying to retain things like paladin seal twisting and things of that nature.

It’s kind of funny that they included a Heigan exploit fix on that PTR but are probably going to release it after everyone has already farmed most of the stuff they needed out of Naxx.
