(Updated November 15th): You can check out the new pre-patch phase 2 known issues here.
(Updated October 28th.)
For those experiencing FPS drop issues, there's a possible fix you can check out here.
Blizzard have posted the known issues list for the Dragonflight pre-patch, from empty talent frames to AH issues, many UI problems and more.

Blizzard LogoKnown Issues (Source)

Auction House

  • Many non-PvP items are displaying the PvP item level marker while browsing. These items do not have PvP attributes.

Classes

  • Action bar buttons may fail to glow when an ability becomes available for use (for example with Maelstrom Weapon or Execute).
  • When logging into the Dragonflight pre-expansion patch for the first time, the Talent Frame and Action Bars may be empty. Logging out and back into the character should fix this issue.
  • The Micro Menu may flash with an indicator that something is undone, even after you’ve leveled and spent a talent point.
  • Covenant Abilities may not be properly replaced by their respective Talent, leading to the appearance of duplicates in the player’s spellbook. These Covenant Abilities and Talents will share a cooldown if either are cast.
  • Spells that have multiple charges via talents (such as Shadowstep or Healing Stream Totem) will not show their cooldown on the spell tooltip until you have at least 1 charge talented.

Items

  • Shadowlands Conduits may display incorrect statistical values on their tooltips. This is a visual bug only.
  • Weapons that drop from all M+ sources, including the Great Vault, may have an incorrect item level.

Player versus Player

  • Following Rated PvP matches, except for Solo Shuffle, accurate credit is not being provided to players. The fix for the issue will require realm restarts.

Professions

  • The overall skill bar UI appears to be full regardless of your actual skill level.
  • When you drag invalid equipment over a Profession slot, an error can make the gear disappear and move to your normal character equipment slot.
  • The Reagent Bag slot is currently visible. This will be disabled and will return when players have access to Dragonflight Reagent Bags for this slot.
  • Newly crafted Profession items in the Dragonflight pre-expansion patch cannot be placed into Void Storage.

User Interface

  • Spells may not appear when placed, unless action bars are set to always show.
  • The Interact Key and Action Targeting Options may not be saved when you log out.
  • Abilities may incorrectly display on top of the action bar borders while cooling down.
  • Unit Frames may disappear, and then reappear when Edit Mode is activated. This may occur when the Unit Frame is anchored to the Extra Action Button.
  • The default placement for Group Loot Frame may cause items to move off screen. Use the command “/Reloadui” to fix this.
  • In the Group Finder, the Start Group button appears in the middle of the Custom category list.
  • Elite enemy nameplates do not include dragons, as intended.
  • Cast bars may appear behind some UI panels.
  • Unit Frames can unintentionally snap to another area when too close to the party frame.
  • The Recruit-a-Friend tab is not displaying correctly on the social window.
  • Action Bars 6-8 are enabled when selecting Default reset in Options.
  • The HUD Tooltip element is displaying on top of the settings window the element.
  • Finishing the Exile’s Reach experience can print “START” & “END” into the chat.
  • The Guild and Communities window selection for custom icon for new community appears oversized.
  • Inspecting out-of-range players shows your own talents.
  • Accessibility
    • Hold-To-Cast may not work with mouseover casting.
    • Melee attacks cannot be canceled by the Escape key with Action Targeting enabled.
    • Your Locked Target may be cleared when a different enemy Soft Target dies.
    • When using a Gamepad, button bindings can disappear from action bars.
    • The Interact Key sound cue sound does not play when you are able or unable to interact with an NPC.

User Services

  • When purchasing a Character Transfer, on the Select Destination Account step, you may notice the character in the dropdown appears to change to the first character on the character select screen. This is a visual bug, and your chosen character is still locked in from before.
  • Some NPCs who redeem codes from outside the game have been temporarily removed. They will return to their usual locations soon.

Website

  • WoW Armory web pages may display duplicated or missing Talents for specializations with multiple loadouts. This is a website display issue only and does not affect the game.

WoW Companion App

  • A bug can cause the Auction House tab to incorrectly display 0 currency and events on the Events tab to disappear. This may sometimes be resolved by logging out and back in.

For those just returning or who otherwise need to be caught up we have guides for both new and returning players.

As with any update, it is important to make sure that if you use addons that they have been updated.

Maybe this company should let betas sit for an extra month considering all these issues they have on launch lately.

 

It's done when it's done.

If you´re experiencing issues, remember that is always a good idea to delete the Cache, Interface and WTF folders. I would also suggest disabling your addons temporarily.

While they officially call this “pre-patch”, it is actually the beta (the official “beta” period was more like an alpha).

To be fair, a project of the scale of WoW really does need a period of mass beta testing like this (not enough participation in the official beta to fully test what is needed at this scale). And if they called it beta instead of pre-patch, lots of people would just sit it out instead of contributing to the test, I guess.

Certainly, though, this is not to excuse the many problems (both with the game and with Blizz itself).

  • Even with all addons disabled, I was randomly having action bars 4 and 5 covering the right-side halves of my opened bags when picking up items.
  • When I was invited to a group, the default party frames did not display until I was out of combat. Did Blizzard combat restrict their own user interface? LOL

Definitely going to be working out the kinks for months.

Hey there, I don't know how many people encountered this problem. Today we had a guild m+ run, a lot of people ran different dungeons. What we found out: in Iron Docks, Grimrail, Lower Kara, Junkyard, the covenant abilities, conduits and soulbinds do not work. Not a visual bug, we checked details and logs. Affected classes: dk, hunter, monk, warlock, warrior. I personally ran frost with nf, koryan. The first strike buff was never applied, dnd cleave didn't work at 3 targets (although it should if talented into "Cleaving Strikes"), everfrost was also never applied to mobs. Now the weird thing is, that we all could still use the covenant ability like soul shape, call oul, necroshield. Another note: from our testing no one ever had an issue in streets or gambit, had around 10 runs in those two today.

Has anyone experienced an issue that "Adventure Guide" without pressing any button pops up eventually (sometimes 1x, but it may occur that 2-3x during a trash fight in M+)? Honestly its quite annoying. First I thought I'm pressing some buttons which trigger it, but then I changed the shortcut for that, afterward while we were waiting for 2 people to return it just opened itself 2x. Also some addons "prevent" doing an action and I cannot use my keybinds unless I disable the addons. This is madness. My FPS is somehow better than it was, but fluctuating as hell. In Oribos I get 50-300 FPS. At least before prepatch it was a consistent 145. If I did my job as "well" as these people at Blizzard I would be long time homeless by now. In our developer team we have 300x lesser people than Blizzard has, yet we never release anything in a state like that. This is a paid game, you would expect at least they don't give a damn about the quality..

Do you have Neatplates installed? I tried to answer to the first person in this forum entry, however moderators seemingly didn't care about it back then. I had the same issue, but disabling / updating Neatplates resolved it.

If another addon is causing the issue, that's what I suggest:

Check in your addon manager which active addon has a 9.2.5 / 9.2.7 version, visit curseforge and check for the newer version manually. Some of the addons straight after prepatch had a 10.0.0 version available while in the addon manager only 9.2.7 was shown as the "latest". If that doesn't work, try to disable addons one by one and check which one resolves your issue. I hope this helps.

Disable Bartender Addon if you have it as it messes with some of the ui.

Out of the question. blizzard should work their ingame things when converting from patch to patch in favor of the addons/addon devs instead of the addon makers having to basically rewrite the addon from scratch due to new patch incompatibility. we are paying for the game AND for the addons... either directly or through ads, but addon writers get paid too.

For blizzard staff to change the ui look and game settings is so easy, but a sane person will allways consider these questions: "Why would we change that? What will happen to the addons of our beloved gamers if we change things a certain way?" (if those changes are done like a kid would do them, cause that's how literally they are doing it in the last few expansions).

I don't know if the problem is the laying off of staff members from back years ago, but lately it clearly indicates they need a lot of staff members, coders, bug fixers, and mainly MAINLY game testers who are the ones that give the best feedback and list of things to fix directly to blizzard in a comprehensive format instead of relying on streamers and their video feeds. Pathetic!

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
