The usual Known Issues post, that we will try to keep updated over the next few days, with acknowledgements and resolutions to bugs and issues related to Patch 27.6.
Quote from BlizzardPatch 27.6 is now live, bringing with it a bonanza of updates, like pre-purchase for our next, rootin’ tootin’ expansion: Showdown in the Badlands!
The following are some of the known issues we’re tracking this patch:
- [General] With the launch of Patch 27.6, some players were inadvertently shown a surprise planned for BlizzCon that we’re not ready to reveal yet. We’ll catch you up on all the details soon.
- [General] The team is aware of an error causing crashes in the tutorial. We’re working on a server-side hotfix to resolve the issue.
- [Hearthstone] Players have reported that moving pack piles while Mass Pack Opening can cause one big cluster of overlapping packs or other pack spacing issues. Leaving the pack opening screen and coming back seems to resolve this issue. We’re working on a more permanent bug fix for the next major patch. Until then, remember: if your pack stacks get whack, just evac and come back.
- [Hearthstone] Stonehill Defender was also buffed this patch, but was missed in the Patch Notes. It has been added to the (U.S.) English notes and will be added to the other languages soon.
- [Hearthstone] The Hallows End event is progressing too quickly. We plan to fix this in an upcoming hotfix.
- [Battlegrounds] Audacious Anchor has been temporarily removed from the minion pool.
- [Added 10/17] [Hearthstone] Nether Portal (created by Lakkari Sacrifice) has incorrect text. There was no functional change to the card and no change is intended. The text will be corrected in an upcoming patch.
- [Added 10/17] [General] Some mobile players are reporting difficulty entering the app after the latest update and getting error messages when they try. Uninstalling and reinstalling the app seems to resolve this issue.
Did anyone else not get the quest to play 3 games of the new tavern brawl for an extra pack this week? I’m thinking maybe because I finished the hallows end event when it was bugged that’s why I didn’t get this extra pack quest. Can anyone confirm?
I was able to finish the entire event in about 90 minutes after the update. I’m sure with the additional update that was released they fixed that now. I’m lucky that even with the expansion releasing on the 14th I’ll still be done with the entire 400 levels on the reward track on the 5th just from completing the quests. Another 214 free packs , not to shabby!
Nether Portal is still trash even if it summons 4 imps
I think Warlock can sit back from Tier 1 for a month
Was it also intentional to have "mass" pack openings capped at only 40?
Yes, players get confused past 40.
Damn, you might've been right if,
...they didn't up the pre-purchase to 50 packs for Un'goro & 60 for Descent of Dragons (my last pre-purchase)
Not sure players will be happy about the Hallows End event being slowed down. ☠
Was the BlizzCon surprise 3 golden Showdown packs? Because that popped up for me and I was a little unsure as to what they were for.
