Patch 8.0 is now live on US servers and we’re rolling out a update to both the addon and the guides. The update to the Guide Viewer adds in support and comparability with Patch 8.0. If you are not in the US and will be getting the Patch 8.0 update at a later time you will want to make sure your client is set to EU so you don’t get the update early causing your guides to break.

This is one last reminder that with tomorrows pre-patch that will bring the game up to version 8.0 the Zygor Guide Viewer addon will need to be updated to be compatible with this version. However, because the pre-patch will be hitting regions at different times you will want to make sure your Zygor Guides Client settings have the proper region selected so that you receive the update at the correct time to maintain working guides.

We detailed the full instructions on how to do this over in this blog post (Important Info About The Upcoming Patch 8.0). If you’re in a region other than US or EU and will be receiving the update at an even different time you may want to disable auto updates entirely and manually update your guides when your server receives the patch.

The US patch will start rolling out during Blizzards maintenance period tomorrow.

We expect the upcoming pre-patch which will bring the live game up to version 8.0 to release possibly tomorrow, Tuesday, July 3rd, but most likely one of the Tuesdays after that, July 10th or 17th. While the launch of Battle for Azeroth will be the first time a major update will go live globally at the same time, this pre-patch is expected to be rolled out the traditional way, going live at different times across different regions. This can pose the problem of the addon not working if you download the updated version before your server has been updated.

In order to address this issue we’re rolling out an update to the Zygor Guides Client with a new region selector so that you don’t get the addon update before the appropriate time. The client should prompt you automatically to set your region, but you can also do it by going into the client options under Preferences. We will also be sending out a content update for Patch 8.0 for the new pre-Battle for Azeroth content Blizzard is adding.
