Didn’t die, but here are the broken things I noticed

After 8 hours of the server being offline yesterday, I was determined to get my HC fix in last night in spite of some pretty glaring issues present right from login.

Here’s what I saw:

—Updated nameplates, nothing wrong with the change IMO, but this seemed to be the only “improvement” —Virtually every add-on was broken in spite of me going into Curseforge and updating all of them, then rebooting. However, some people were reporting Questie worked for them. —Weirdly a party member told me he couldn’t see his XP bar. —This one was crazy: my PvP flag got enabled randomly while questing even though I was nowhere near enemy faction guards. I had to wait out the 5 mins, questing on the Thandol Span of all places where an opposite faction toon definitely could have bonked me, but no one did and it never turned on again. This didn’t happen to anyone else in my 5-man quest group.

Against my better judgment while this was going on I teamed up with a group and we knocked out the Wetlands Elite quests. No combat issues that I could see.

Anyway this seems like the jankiest update since I started playing HC in 2024. I just love the “let’s fix what isn’t broken” mentality that ends up creating 1000 more issues.
