Beta known issues

Source: View source Version: Forever beta known issues (2026-09-18) Review: Source checked Last reviewed: 2026-09-20

Selected issues · reviewed 20 September 2026. Follow Blizzard's linked list for later changes. “Next build” is a fix target, not confirmation that your installed build contains a fix.

Blizzard's September 18 list reports incorrect glancing-blow calculations and lower-level resurrection-sickness duration. Guild charters can temporarily be submitted without signatures. Opening Legacy with Y below level 25 can cause errors. Some Waylaid Crate turn-ins await a later build. The Cooldown Manager remains incomplete.

Class testing

Read the dated issue notes on Druid, Hunter, Mage, Paladin, Priest, Warlock, and Warrior before interpreting a test. The original list also covers interface and exploration issues; this page is a selection, not a complete tracker.

Check whether the report concerns a tooltip, a character-sheet display, or actual combat behavior. Those are different observations. Keep character level and equipment fixed when comparing two tests, and record the first error rather than a chain of later errors caused by it.

Community troubleshooting reports

Error after gameplay-style selection

A player identified build 1.60.1.69893 when reporting WOW51900309 after selecting a gameplay style on September 18. Several replies reported progress after fully closing lingering Battle.net/WoW processes and allowing an update; others reported continued problems. This is a community report, not a Blizzard-confirmed cause or universal fix.

Mac world-entry freezes

A player reported whole-system freezes on a Mac in build 1.60.1.69913, and said setting Secondary Lighting to Fair before entering the world avoided the issue in their subsequent session. This is a player-reported workaround; later replies describe continued crashes despite that setting. It is not a Blizzard-confirmed fix.

For an installation or missing-access problem, begin with Game access and System requirements. A gameplay report is not evidence that an account has the required beta entitlement.
