This Year in World of Warcraft 2019
2019 has been a busy year for Azeroth, continuing the Battle for Azeroth to the heart of the Zandalari Empire, encountering Azshara, and unleashing the horrors of N'Zoth back on the world. There have been an enormous amount of events, celebrations, and discoveries over the past year; today we remember them all as we look forward to the next.

Engineering Crafted Azerite Helmets have Secondary Stats on the 8.3 PTR
In what is almost certainly a bug, the newest version of Engineering crafted Azerite helmets have secondary stats on the 8.3 PTR! This is a departure from the norm, as Azerite items throughout
Battle for Azeroth
have intentionally lacked secondary stats so as to not further complicate gearing issues already presented by juggling Azerite bonuses.

Sylvanas in Shadowlands - Edge of Night, Jailer of the Damned, and Vol'jin's Mystery
The
World of Warcraft: Shadowlands
expansion announced at BlizzCon 2019 has raised a whole new set of questions regarding where the story will go next, particularly as we continue to hunt down the Banshee Queen Sylvanas Windrunner. Her actions in the cinematic trailer, and what we've learned about the expansion in the panels since, is finally starting to tie together some of the loose plot points teased throughout
Battle for Azeroth
, as well as create some interesting topics of discussion, which we hope will pique your interest as much as it grabbed ours.
We've also learned that Sylvanas started her partnership with the Jailer in the short story "Edge of Night," which many players may be unfamiliar with as the events completely took place out-of-game, and re-reading the story, it's essential to understanding Sylvanas' current motivations. Spoilers and speculation below!
