Realms: Trinity, Midnight 2, Midnight 3

Log in again after this update. Enter a neighborhood again if you already had it open.

2 October 2026

Housing

• Lyssabel Dawnpetal stands at the Alliance inns (Stormwind, Ironforge, Darnassus, the Exodar). Tocho Cloudhide stands at the Horde inns (Orgrimmar, Thunder Bluff, Undercity, Silvermoon, and the Midnight Silvermoon inn). Each one is two yards in front of that innkeeper. They offer My First Home (91863).
• Accepting My First Home in a capital sends Alliance players to Founder's Point and Horde players to Razorwind Shores, in front of the steward there. Accepting it while you are already on that map does not move you again.
• Walking into a district on the neighborhood map completes that visit. Each district is the quest pin, sixty yards across.
• Founder's Point can load creatures and objects again. The client had no normal-difficulty row for that map or for Razorwind Shores, so every spawn was rejected.
• Founder's Point gained the neighborhood ground, grass, barrels, and the Stormwind portal from the 12.1 housing captures (94 objects), 43 creatures from those captures, and residents placed from the published neighborhood map.
• Fifty-five cornerstones mark the Founder's Point plots. A free plot costs 1000 gold, the price in the capture. Clicking the cornerstone opens the plot. Buying it takes the gold, marks the plot sold, and places the starter house from the capture at the door.
• Twenty-three plots that already had a house in the capture stay sold. Thirty-two are for sale. Entering the neighborhood tells the client which plots are free and which are taken. Enter the map again after this update so that list and the houses load.
• The names on those twenty-three captured houses are not real characters, so the owner name can be blank.

The War Creche

• Awaken, Dracthyr (64864) can move past the first ally. Alliance players get Dervishian. Horde players get Kodethi. Both used to appear for everyone.
• Hold Disintegrate on the ally until the channel ends. That wakes them. The same channel wakes Tethalash and Scalecommander Azurathel. Clicking Talon Kethahn's remains shows his text and completes that step. Turn the quest in to Scalecommander Azurathel.
• Kethahn, Tethalash, and the sleeping Azurathel stand on the quest pins, on the floor of the creatures already there. Their facing is not in the data. The glide down, the cave-in, and Lapisagos are not in.

1 October 2026

Spells

• Alliance and Horde characters drop outdated spell ranks on login. The rank that matches your level stays. Older copies no longer sit in the spellbook.
• Riding ranks are kept. Apprentice, Journeyman, Expert, Artisan, and Master Riding are learned from your level when your race and class can ride.
• Dynamic flight (skyriding) is learned at level 10. Mounts that need it can use it.
• Mage portals stay. Mounts bought in the shop stay.
• Neutral pandaren use the same cleanup. Relog once so the spellbook updates.
• Relog once on each character so the spellbook updates.

Stormwind and the Dragon Isles

• Teleport: Stormwind lands in the mage tower again. Casters no longer fall through the city.
• Expeditionary Coordination (66589): choosing an artisan, explorer, or scholar in the city or at the harbor completes that objective. The tracker for artisans and scholars points at Thaelin Darkanvil in the Dwarven District and Cataloger Wulferd in the Trade District. Pathfinder Jeb stays on the ramp down to the harbor.
• The Obsidian Warders (72240): telling Dervishian on the Stockades roof completes the delivery.
• Whispers on the Winds (66596): asking Khadgar at the harbor completes the talk.
• To the Dragon Isles! (67700): the portal stands on the quest pin at the Stormwind dock and plays the same animation as the other city portals, so it is visible. Clicking it still takes you straight to the Waking Shores dock and completes the voyage. The Rugged Dragonscale can be boarded at the dock. It follows its taxi path and completes the quest at the Waking Shores stop, instead of teleporting you the moment you board. If the ship is already out on the route, wait until it returns to the Stormwind dock. Turn the quest in to Toddy Whiskers. The hull tilt is still missing, so the voyage cinematic does not play.

Westfall

• Clue items for The Collector (26213) and The Collector's Reward (26214) drop again.
• Narg the Taskmaster drops loot on the difficulty players actually fight.

Character select

• Campsites: Apply saves the group on the account. A new account gets a Favorites group on the default camp, with the four placements that camp uses. Camps the account has not collected stay locked.

Housing

• The House Finder can take you to the neighborhood on a first visit, before you own a house. Alliance lands on Founder's Point. Horde lands on Razorwind Shores. The landing is the stored plot point.
• My First Home (91863): Lyssabel Dawnpetal on Founder's Point and Tocho Cloudhide on Razorwind Shores offer the quest. The first talk greets the steward. The second asks the steward to join you. The district visits were added on 2 October.

Shop, bank, and the Hero's Call Board

• The in-game shop lists mounts, pets, and toys. Gold is taken only after you confirm the purchase. A second purchase in the same session works.
• The character bank opens from bankers again.
• Hero's Call Boards in Stormwind are the hanging lion shields again, and the board opens.

Cities and creatures

• About 15,000 creatures from the 12.1 captures were added where that creature was missing nearby. Spell visuals, totems, pets, and placeholders were left out.
• Silvermoon and Eversong gained creatures from the Midnight captures.
• Hostile Wild Imps that were one-shotting players in Silvermoon were removed. They were a warlock pet, not city NPCs.
• The images of Lady Liadrin, Turalyon, and Lor'themar stay visible in Silvermoon, Stormwind Cathedral Square, Orgrimmar, and Dornogal after Khadgar's Summons. Liadrin's travel gossip is offered again.
• Horde Thick Cocoons for Who Dwells in the Pit (59949) spawn closed and ready to open.

Exile's Reach, continued

• Darkmaul Citadel quest givers use the captured positions, including Captain Kelra and Lady Jaina Proudmoore after the dungeon.
• Freeing the Light: the necrotic lights on the pedestals no longer attack you. They are the ritual visual.
• Meredy is at the roost turn-in beside Henry Garrick, and at camp once the rescue is done.
• Meredy and Herbert at the harpy roost can be freed.
• Right Beneath Their Eyes (55981) credits the disguise stops.
• Killclaw the Terrible has the danger-sign starter from the capture.
• Killclaw the Terrible (56839) shows one Killclaw, the original beside the objective pin. Two extra copies from the sniff import were removed.
• The Rescue of Herbert Gloomburst (59944): Herbert stands on the completed-quest pin beside Shuja, so the rescue can be turned in. The captive at the roost is unchanged.
• Who Lurks in the Pit (59949): Lana Jordan at the pit offers the quest once Westward Bound is turned in. Won'sa beside her does not. The copy in the ogre ruins hides once Westward Bound is taken. The tracker pins that sat at height 0 now sit on the ground. The hostile voidwalker at the cave mouth was a warlock pet from the sniff import and is gone.
• Further quest NPCs from the Midnight sniffs were spawned only where that entry was missing on the map.

Bots

• Player bots attack the enemy you have selected, and anyone already fighting you, even when they are not yet at war with that creature.

30 September 2026

Player bots

• Companion bots can be created and added to your group. Commands, roster, and combat behavior are part of the world server.

Housing

• Player housing loads room geometry and decor from the current client data, including room pieces and decoration definitions. Travel to the neighborhood and the first-home quest were added on 1 October.

Exile's Reach

• Enhanced Combat Tactics summons your sparring partner again. Accepting the quest runs the phase change.
• Captain Garrick's personal trainer uses the captured creature data.
• Thick Cocoons spawn ready to open.
• Ralia Dreamchaser's click starts the captured escape scene.
• The Alliance reunion plays the current Exile's Reach cinematic instead of the old 9.0 scene.
• Meredy's rescue at the ritual uses the captured position and the existing gossip line.
• Post-pit quest givers from the 24 September capture are restored, including two stationary NPCs that were missing.
• Darkmaul Citadel has an LFG entrance (dungeon 2043, map 2236). Followers, boss scripts, and exit gossip are not part of that fix.
• Kalecgos' departure spell has a destination on the Waking Shores. The departure NPC and event are not finished.

Creatures and quest data

• Creatures that had no faction, and models that had no size data, were filled in from decoded retail object packets. Existing factions and models were left as they were.
• Quests whose start item was stored with a count of 0 now grant one copy. Existing nonzero counts are unchanged.
• Quest reward rows that were missing were inserted from capture evidence. Choice items and dynamic rewards were not overwritten.
• SmartAI bindings that the server was ignoring were restored where a Trinity script already existed. Custom scripts were kept.

Still open

• Talents already keep purchased ranks. Rows stored at rank 0 are the free granted nodes; those ranks come from the talent data on login. No talent rebuild was done.
• The Dragon Isles ship follows its taxi path, but TransportAnimation.db2 has no entry for transport 375073, so the client cannot draw the hull tilting. The portal to the Waking Shores is still instant.
• Razorwind Shores still has almost none of the Founder's Point scenery, residents, or cornerstones. Plot icons on the zone map are not part of this update.
• A bought house is the starter shell from the capture. Vendors, decor lists, and the later housing quests are not in.
• Awaken, Dracthyr stops after Azurathel. The rest of the Forbidden Reach, from Gear Up through the Raszageth finale, has no spawns and no scripts. The glide path after the ally wakes is not in.
• Chasing Storms (70050) is the old Tempest Unleashed lead-in, not the current sail chain. The database has no objective and no spawn for Storm Hunter William.
• The Call of the Isles (70197) is an automatic breadcrumb. It has no quest giver on purpose. The leave-area trigger is not in the captures, and a second Toddy in Stormwind would also turn in To the Dragon Isles!
• Later Waking Shores talks still have no captured dialogue. Sendrax and Ambassador Fastrasz are already spawned, and the kill credits are in the database, but there is no gossip line to attach them to.
