The developers have apparently run into a few issues during maintenance today, and have posted to clarify some things about the changes that are being made to Marks of Honor and Waylaid Supplies ahead of Phase 2‘s launch on Thursday.

First, where Blizzard previously said that excess Marks of Honor would be purged from mailboxes at the start of Phase 2, they have apparently run into some issues with this and decided not to go through with it. Instead, Marks of Honor will simply not give XP at level 25.

Second, as we heard in an interview yesterday, Waylaid Supplies crates will no longer be unique in Phase 2. Today’s blue post further clarified that you can no longer hand in partially filled crates for partial rep in Phase 2. The tooltip hasn’t been updated yet, but it will be changed to reflect this in a hotfix.

Third, the devs have been seeing some issues with interface addons following maintenance. They will be working to fix the issue, but in the meantime you may see some errors if you are using affected addons.

As we work through today’s Classic Era maintenance, we’re currently tracking two notable issues.

First, we discovered an issue with the operation to purge mail that we described here 76. We’ve decided to not do that, and instead, we’re going to suspend the XP gain from turning in Marks of Honor at level 25 (in addition to removing the overflow mail from Marks of Honor). We suggest you spend your Marks before reaching 20 of them.

As part of our change to Waylaid Supplies to make them no longer Unique, you can no longer hand in partially filled crates, and you’ll need to vendor those. At this time, the tooltip still says they can be turned in unfilled. We will deploy a hotfix for the tooltip as soon as possible.

We also have an issue affecting interface addons. Some addons are producing errors or not functioning as they did before. We currently expect to go live with this issue, and we’ll then fix it as soon as possible.

We’ll let you know when the fix is completed.
