New feature: Bountifuller delves.
Every day one “random” delve will reward twice as many bountiful caches on the first clear.
And by “random” we mean it will only ever be the one you enjoy the least.

In all seriousness, I’ve always thought Blizzard’s April Fools notes were in poor taste. They too often poke directly at legitimate issues many players have with some aspect of the game, only to never address said issues after April Fools’ is done with. It’s not cool.

World of Warcraft®: The War Within
Patch 11.1.372 – “Delve Deeper”
April 1, 2025
As we settle into the first season of The War Within, we’re introducing several system refinements, accessibility features, and tuning passes for Delves, Hero Talents, and group content—plus a few experimental changes based on early player behavior.
General Updates
Delve Companion Affinity System (Beta)
Companions now passively track your interactions and performance during Delves. Reaching higher affinity levels will unlock new dialogue options and minor buffs.
Developer’s Note: This is a lighthearted system to help players feel more connected to their companions. Yes, Brann will begin calling you “champ” more often at max affinity.
Earthen Racial Update
Earthen characters now receive a small mining XP bonus when standing still for 30 seconds.
New emote: /resonate – causes nearby rocks to mildly vibrate and emit a calming tone.
Developer’s Note: This racial now better reflects the Earthen’s deep cultural connection to the land… and to standing still.
New Setting: “Delve Narration Mode”
Enables voiceover recaps of your Delve progress, narrated in the style of an overenthusiastic documentary host.
Example: “After bravely looting yet another spider cave, our hero returns with a backpack full of bones and regrets.”
Hero Talent Tuning
Slayer (Warrior/Rogue)
Now receives a 1% bonus damage if the player enters a dungeon with dramatic music already playing (client-side only).
“Fatal Precision” renamed to “Gritty Grit Grit” on April 1 only. (This is a test.)
Geomancer (Shaman/Evoker)
Rock spells now have a 5% chance to summon a small dancing pebble familiar. Pebble deals no damage but looks very determined.
Developer’s Note: We’re experimenting with cosmetic flair to reflect elemental harmony.
Delves
New Delve Modifier: “Bureaucratic Interference”
Occasionally, a Dwarven official will appear mid-Delve and request you fill out a short survey about your spelunking experience.
Failure to comply results in a mild movement speed debuff due to “paperwork fatigue.”
Companion Behavior Update
Brann now has a 2% chance to wander off mid-pull looking for “culturally significant” rocks.
Maelie the Wanderer may occasionally enter your Delve uninvited. She means well.
UI and Accessibility
New Feature: “Emote Contextual Suggestions”
When you stand near another player for more than 10 seconds, the game will suggest relevant emotes, such as /nod, /awkward, or /backawayslowly.
Raid Frame Icons
A new icon will now appear if a party member has gone more than 5 minutes without looting anything. Mouseover text: “Emotionally Checked Out.”
Delve Difficulty Rename Test (US Realms Only)
“Heroic” → “Spicy”
“Mythic” → “Certified Dangerous”
“Mythic+” → “Still Better Than LFR”
Developer’s Note: Names are purely cosmetic.
Thanks for continuing to explore Khaz Algar with us. More updates are on the way as we prepare for Season 2—and yes, we’re aware of the bug where the tunnel walls whisper “you forgot something.” It’s probably fine.

Patch Ultimate-the-best-one-ever!
Only update:
- The forums are intelligent and their suggestions are all well-thought-out and therefore we have simultaneously implemented ALL of them all at the same time!

Rogue Update:
- Rogues will be getting a much needed update. The numerous bugs that have been plaguing the class are now fixed in upcoming PTR.
- Due to the severe distaste for all 3 hero classes, we have gone back to the drawing board and will be coming up with a new and revised hero classes.

-Engineers can now create back braces for those who want to improve their postures.
-Belts with wolf or husky themed tails are world drops! Never say we didn’t listen for players requests for optional tails!
-No mount should be grounded! Leatherworkers can now craft saddles that allow all ground mounts to fly! (Swimming mounts will still be stuck to water though until shamans learn to bend water and create water bubbles for the mounts to swim in.)
