So, what's the excuse for the trading post being pushed to 2/1/23?

So why exactly did we get a couple new assets and the transmogrifier NPC moved when they could’ve just not promoted this content if it wasn’t coming with the rest of the patch? Most talked about and anticipated feature aside from the white/greys arguably, but all that really happened was the creation catalyst got moved to DF for 10.0.5 and that’s it…

What was the point in calling this a 10.0.5 instead of a hotfix patch exactly when the main point of the 10.0.5 isn’t even here yet?

It wasn’t pushed, that was the plan all along. Would you rather they waited for a Tuesday that landed on the first of the month?

It’s been advertised as 2/1 since the announcement.

They have said multiple times it would not be on patch launch.

All of their marketing material indicated it would, is the point.

Nothing you’ve provided indicates that. All you’ve shown is that the patch is today. Which it is.

They also announced a new raid with Dragonflight, how do you feel it wasn’t available till a few weeks in?

The excuse is most likely this, some trading post rewards are based on time subbed by months, not the date yours expires. If they started it this week, those 7 days would count as a month.

The road map reads ‘winter’ not January 24.

Yes. Trading post is in the patch. The patch came today.

Plenty of things, raids included, are not available day one of a patch.

It says the update is coming today. And it did.

It says the trading post is coming today, and it didn’t.

kinda/sorta running again?

The link you provided reads trading post February 1.

Because the trading post is a monthly thing.

Nah, everyone’s UI’s are broken. So I’m sure they’ll drop a 10.0.5.1 sometime within the next week.

you can log in?/i can’t even log in yet…lol.

i mean obviously they didnt want to bring it out at the end of one month so people would feel rushed into finishing everything. better to start it at the start of a new month a week later
