Patch 11.0.5

It's patch day for World of Warcraft, so it's no surprise that there's a long maintenance today: The War Within servers will be offline from 7am - 3pm pacific today.

Grab a drink and get comfortable in your chair, because you're going to need to do a whole lot of Wizard Chores to collect enough Bronze Celebration Tokens to earn everything there is to get when the Anniversary Event goes live.

In a significant quality of life upgrade for crafters, when WoW patch 11.0.5 hits live servers later this month you will be able to fulfill crafting orders using reagents from your Warband Bank.

This year isn't just another anniversary: with World of Warcraft turning 20, the game is getting a massive anniversary event that will let us relive old glories, collect plenty of loot, and even show off our favorite transmogs.

World of Warcraft's current expansion The War Within has been out since August 26 (with early access beginning on August 22), and due to the published 2024 roadmap we already know that the first post-release update will be patch 11.0.5.
