Phase 4 PTR Could Last Several Weeks - Season of Discovery

WoW Classic Era PTRfirst few weeks
Yes! It was a deliberate choice to not include world buffs in these first few weeks of PTR. Once they are there, no one will test without them and getting a baseline without them would be impossible. We will add them at some point in the future once we get the data we are looking for without them and we stabilize the initial changes a bit.
Onyxia's Lair is confirmed to be one of the first level 60 raids in Season of Discovery Phase 4.

I understand for a lot of players this must feel unfair especially people with the summer off, but for me this is a big green flag! I hope phase 4 is worth the wait!Comment by Milu92"I'm Blizzard and the only idea I can think of is to once again add an Epic Ring or Epic Neck instead of explorer quests for class-specific items." Holy Moly... does this feel worse than private server ideas :DComment by SaladManderPhase 4 will drop July 11th, imo.Comment by shifwax"a fact that comes as a surprise and is very much welcomed by the community overall"

Releasing this late in June or in July will mean so many people from my community will prioritize holiday with their families instead and it will actually hurt SoD more than benefit it, I believe.Comment by ElizarTV"Phase 4 PTR could be around for longer than expected - a fact that comes as a surprise and is very much welcomed by the community overall."

WoWhead almost as clueless as Blizzard Developers.
