Classic WoW Raid Reset Days and Schedule

What are your plans for server reset days for Classic?

The raid reset points have been restored to their original 1.12 values.

Classic operates as part of our general World of Warcraft infrastructure. Our goals are to minimize service downtime and maximize availability. In some weeks we might not need to take realms down for maintenance.

Comment by IbarraiReset every 3 days? :o NiceComment by FelStormThis is the one thing I am not super excited for.... Especially without the ingame calender... This is gunna be exhausting keeping track.
I was hoping they would have made the reset settup for the 3 days to be every 3 and a half days so that it lines up same time as the 7 days
The 5 days, idk what they could do with that... Either move it down to 3 and a half, or up to 7.Comment by SkyreiThis is the one thing I am not super excited for.... Especially without the ingame calender... This is gunna be exhausting keeping track.

Plus the raids with quicker resets were designed to be completed in 1-4 hours. After a couple weeks of gear checks, we're gonna wish we can do these shorter raids more frequently for BiS trinkets and tiger mounts.Comment by Tigeruswe're gonna wish we can do these shorter raids more frequently for BiS trinkets and tiger mounts.Comment by RichardMNixonThis is the one thing I am not super excited for....

You just /raidinfo and it tells you when things reset for you. Pretty straightforward.Comment by MikodadevodaThis is the one thing I am not super excited for.... Especially without the ingame calender... This is gunna be exhausting keeping track.

Once they started they didn’t end until their lockout was done. Example: raid kills raid boss 1 in MC on Friday at 8pm est. Once that happens it generates a raid ID and that raid ID will not reset until 7 days later no matter what. So the instance would reset 8pm est next Friday. There were no Tuesday resets.Comment by nishav101822Ummm, no. The big 4 reset every Tuesday like clockwork, which was why 8 PM on Tuesday night in Summer 2015 was hell, all those raid guilds wiping on Razorgore with all those addsComment by tweakleti defiantly like how you guys have been adding timers and other info on dailies for your front page for the retail wowComment by EndorerWe might see about tracking this on our Classic front page, if it's just a simple countdown.Comment by mymy379

There's nothing wrong with holding a magnifying glass to everything, comparing to then and now, and helping ensure that the most important aspects of Classic remain honored. Of course, there are already a few factors being introduced or adjusted, such as server layering to help address player volume in zones (which was previously discussed with Blizzard aiming to eventually minimalize / remove layering as player volume evens out), and residual player bone piles being limited to one per player death to help pre-emptively curb gold-farmer advertising. While some may have faith that Blizzard will provide us with a as-true-as-possible Classic experience, others don't quite have that same level of faith, depending on their disposition towards the quality of recent game content.Comment by sorrowdemonicaThis is the one thing I am not super excited for....
