Blue tracker

WoW Forever blue posts, September 2026

Every post Blizzard’s staff write about WoW Forever on the official forums — and nothing else.

48 topics · 65 staff posts

How the tracker sorts

From the US and EU forums, in English.

A staff post is kept when it sits in one of the forums’ WoW Forever categories, or when its topic’s title names the game — Blizzard’s news in the general forums. Everything else the staff writes — retail, Classic, Season of Discovery, Hardcore — is left out, as are the categories’ “About” topics. A post made on both the US and the EU forums is shown once. The list is refreshed every two hours.

      Jokes on you… no intern… BUT I did get the correction from the dev team and updated it in the article. It should have said “more damage than Aimed Shot”. Thanks for caring enough to point it out so we could get it corrected. Sniper Shot: New talent in 31-point gold medal slot.…

      Subjective, but all in good time, friend. We plan to cover them all but these take a bit of work to pull together and the caveat is that things could still change during beta.
