Greetings All!

The PTR realms will be shutting down for maintenance in order to deploy a new build. I'll be updating this thread with information and time estimates as I receive them. I don't have an ETA yet, but these pushes usually take at least 8 hours, if not more.

I'll be leaving this thread open for general discussion as long as people remain civil and follow forum rules.

Realms are still up as of this post, but should be coming down shortly.

6 hours later~

Still no update on when the servers are going to be back up.


The post you quoted has a good example of how long these take.

Unfortunately it looks like the upload process will be finishing while I'm out of office so realms will likely come up without me here to poke everybody. We still have staff at the office, and they're awesome for staying late to work on this stuff.

I don't have a confirmed ETA but at this point it looks like another 2-3 hours at least. Have a good night everybody, and thanks for being patient.

Due to this morning's scheduled Battle.net App maintenance, login/auth for PTR/Beta will likely remain down/impacted until that maintenance is completed.

From the Battle.net App:

We will be performing scheduled maintenance beginning on Tuesday, September 23, at 01:00 AM PDT and we expect the service to be available again at approximately 11:00 AM PDT. During this time you will be able to use Battle.net in offline mode only.

We're currently investigating into the login outage. Sit tight for now, I'll provide updates as soon as I know more.

We're working to get Character Copy up and working for both Beta and PTR. Thanks for being patient while we work through this system.
