Good adventures need good information.
What the labels mean
- Announced: supported by an official announcement; not proof of behavior in a released client.
- Beta-tested: requires an actual recorded test with build and date. No first-edition article uses this label.
- Live-tested: requires a reproducible test in the released game. None is claimed in this edition.
- Not verified: the answer is outside this guide’s checked evidence. It does not mean that an answer cannot exist elsewhere.
- Editorial interpretation: a clearly separated inference or suggestion, not an official game fact.
Our current cutoff
The source research closed on September 14, 2026 at 00:16 Beijing time (September 13 at 16:16 UTC). The CN panel recap was reread during implementation. The later September 14 deep-dive session and subsequent gameplay evidence are not covered. Article verification dates do not imply continuous monitoring.
Sources close to the claim
Key statements link to original announcements. Regional dates and translations use the appropriate EN, CN or Taiwan source. We preserve uncertainty instead of borrowing numbers or encounter strategies from a different WoW product.
Revisions that mean something
A page’s update date changes when its content materially changes. Its source panel records significant corrections. Layout changes alone do not make game information newer. New gameplay claims will need a tested version and an explanation of how they were checked.
What is not a review
The first edition has no gameplay ratings, DPS rankings, best-in-slot lists or simulated player testimonials. Its purpose is to organize verified announcement facts and explain their limits.
