While most adventurers are still exploring the vastness of Battle for Azeroth, the World of Warcraft team is busy fixing bugs.

For players who changed factions, there is now more detailed information on how and where they can continue the war campaign.

Unlocking the faction-specific dungeons Siege of Boralus (Horde) and King's Rest (Alliance) now correctly applies to all characters of the respective faction.

You can find the detailed patch notes below:
