Auch wenn der Start von Dragonflight durchaus gelungen war und viele Spieler die Erweiterung feiern, so kann sich diese positive Stimmung aber recht schnell ändern, wenn zukünftige Content Updates die Qualität nicht halten können. Aus diesem Grund fragen sich aktuell auch viele Spieler von WoW, was die Entwickler für die nächsten Jahre geplant haben und was für Content Updates diese Erweiterung erhalten wird. Einen ersten Ausblick auf die Zukunft des Addons lieferte das Team der Community gestern Abend.
Zu diesem Zeitpunkt haben die Entwickler von Blizzard Entertainment nämlich die ersten Patchnotes für den neuen Patch 10.0.5 veröffentlicht. Dieses Update wird aktuell wohl auf dem öffentlichen Testserver von World of Warcraft getestet und alle daran interessierten Spieler können es dort ohne zusätzliche Kosten ausprobieren. Ein Patch 10.0.5 ist ein wenig überraschend, weil ein Großteil der Community eigentlich mit einem direkten Patch 10.1 rechnete.
Da Patch 10.0.5 nur ein kleines Update zwischen vollwertigen Patch-Zahlen darstellt, dürfen Spieler auch nur mit wenig Anpassungen rechnen. Die größere Neuerung ist der bereits vor Kurzem vorgestellte Handelsposten. Dabei handelt es sich um ein kostenloses System voll mit kosmetischen Belohnungen für die Sammlungen der Spieler. Fans der angebotenen Waren können diese Reittiere, Vorlagen und Haustiere für eine neue Währung kaufen. Diese Ressource wird pro Monat in einer limitierten Stückzahl an Spieler verschenkt und sie können bei Interesse noch weitere Einheiten der Währung durch bestimmte Tätigkeiten im Spiel erlangen.
Neben dem Handelsposten zeichnet sich Patch 10.0.5 auch noch durch umfangreiche Anpassungen an einigen Klassen des Spiels aus. Auch wenn beinahe alle Klassen auf die eine oder andere Weise angepasst werden, so sind einige Klassen aber von deutlich größeren Veränderungen betroffen. Dazu gehören der Druide, der Priester, der Mönch und der Hexenmeister. Zusätzlich dazu bringt Patch 10.0.5 wohl auch noch Fehlerbehebungen, kleinere Veränderungen, Anpassungen an einigen Berufen und Verbesserungen für die Transmogrifikation mit sich. Spieler dürfen dann wohl endlich Illusionen auf Artefakte auftragen und weißte/graue Gegenstände als Vorlagen verwenden.
Folgend könnt ihr selbst einen Blick auf die PTR-Patchnotes zu Patch 10.0.5 werfen. Der geringe Umfang des Updates spricht für einen Patch, der schon bald auf den Liveservern erscheinen könnte.
Dragonflight 10.0.5 PTR Development Notes
World of Warcraft Version 10.0.5 PTR
This Public Test Realm (PTR) is a testing environment for the content coming with the Dragonflight 10.0.5 update.
DRAGONFLIGHT 10.0.5 UPDATE DEVELOPMENT NOTES
NEW FEATURE: TRADING POST
A new feature is making its way to World of Warcraft — the Trading Post! Complete monthly activities to earn currency toward decking out your characters in cosmetic transmogs, pets, and mounts— with new items and activities introduced every month.
A set of traders will be moving their wares into the capital cities of Stormwind and Orgrimmar—T&W (Tawny and Wilder) and Zen’shiri Trading Posts. You’ll find T&W just outside of the Mage District in Stormwind and the Zen’shiri Trading Post next to Grommash Hold in Orgrimmar.
To obtain these unique cosmetic items, you will need to acquire a new account-wide currency called “Trader’s Tender.” This can be earned in two ways:
- Automatically each month: Just by logging in and heading to the Trading Post, you can collect 500 Trader’s Tender every month from a chest called the Collector’s Cache.
- By completing monthly activities in the Traveler’s Log: A monthly set of activities provides the opportunity to earn up to 500 additional Trader’s Tender.
The final Trader’s Tender amounts are subject to change. We’ll be iterating on this new feature as we test on the PTR.

- Inquisitor’s Gaze is now passive and has been redesigned – Your spells and abilities have a chance to summon an Inquisitor’s Eye that deals Chaos damage over time.
- Developers’ note: Soulkeeper scaling its duration based on souls consumed has felt a bit awkward to use so we’re revising the spell to scale its damage instead. Inquisitor’s Gaze being active all the time lends itself to having lower throughput than we’d like. We’re redesigning it to be a frequent proc that deals considerable damage instead of a buff that you click and forget.
- Affliction
- Soul Tap has been removed.
- Pandemic Invocation has been moved to row 6 and is now a 1 rank talent.

- Soul Swap has been redesigned – Copies your damage over time effects from the target, preserving their duration. Your next use of Soul Swap within 10 seconds will exhale a copy of the effects onto a new target.
- Developers’ note: With regards to Affliction, its rotational global cooldown (GCD) traffic has been a bit higher than we’d like. Soul Tap in particular we’re cutting to help lessen GCD traffic and its heavy reliance on addons to tell when it’s available for use. In its place we’re adding Focused Malignancy, a favored conduit from Shadowlands, that helps Affliction’s single target profile. Lastly, Soul Swap’s current iteration hasn’t been as desirable as we’d like. To address this, we’re testing an older iteration of Soul Swap that should help with Affliction’s ramp.
