Development update:

Greetings, players! We're still working hard on improving Yggdrasil. Our latest work is:

  1. Complete Auction House Bot rewrite: 3 weeks ago, we launched brand new AH bot, run by Twiggy! He will serve you with the goods you need to continue your adventures. For those interested in specifics, it's a hot-compiled Lua script that database-loads all items with auction reload instantiation. Source code: https://github.com/mostlynick3/azerothcore-lua-ah-bot
  2. Opt out of Quality of Life improvements: For players that prefer the original experience, it is now possible to disable level rewards by going to Esc -> Features -> Uncheck "Receive Level-Up Rewards".
  3. Core updated to AzerothCore rev. 82bc814858c2f9f507bfa707fce1b2507d6afaed: We partake in AzerothCore's open-source development and are very fortunate to similarly be able to benefit from the AzerothCore community's expertise. This update features vast grid loading and map handling corrections, amongst other things rectifying issues with unloaded maps causing client crashes in exceptional cases. We are thankful to the whole community, and to you, for helping find issues to improve the core!
  4. Minor bug fixes and feature changes: See change-log from today for more information. 

Current focus: Our current focal tasks are:

  1. Implementing forum solution: After ironing out some final kinks, we trust we will be ready with it soon!
  2. Better load handling of website solutions: To ensure we will never be DDOS-able, we are improving our middleware versus edge traffic distribution.
  3. Improvement to Shadows' scripting: We also partake in the active development of mod-playerbots, the base of Shadows, and are currently helping improve LK tactics. 

And just in case you have missed some of our last changes:

  • You no longer need to download a patcher addon! We now send it to you through the anticheat warden communication. All clients are automagically updated!

Hey everyone, Twiggy here.

 

I just wanted to say it's been a great few months with you all. All these adventures you've brought me on, the evils you've pushed back. I just... I'm a little homesick. I wanna go home.

Not forever though, just to visit.

Wait, I have an idea....

Why don't I take you home with me! I'll show you where I come from; I'm sure Mama Twig won't mind visitors. I bet she'll even let you bring some of those comforts you all like to have around. Those vendors and trainers and... what are those glowing round things you like to jump into all the time? Those too.

Ok. It's settled, then. I'll bring you home with me, and you can visit anytime.

Greetings, everyone!

We've been busy with more dev work, including:

Updates:
  1. Automatic patcher addon! All players now get automatic client patches on login. Current patches include:
  2. In-game store (see screenshot). The patcher addon lets you view our in-game store to spend your Tokens, get special vanity items and mounts, and useful raiding supplies. Access it through the game's options menu.
  3. Cross-faction unit frame dropdown menu.
  4. Twiggy's spell tooltip now refers to Twiggy!
  5. Numerous Yggdrasil Store tooltips corrected.
  6. The auction house deposit price now shows the reduced amount (20%).
  7. Improvements to shadows, items, and vote statistics on the website.
Shadows:
  1. Shadows will now participate in Free For All looting.
  2. Shadows will no longer randomly swap gear. To have your shadows swap gear, you must now whisper them "inv" to see their inventory and reply "e [link item to equip]".
  3. Swapping toons between your played character and your shadows will no longer disband your party if you are in an instanced map (dungeons, raids).
  4. Other players' shadows will no longer ask to be invited to your group in response to addon chatter.
Items:

New items introduced and available through the in-game store:

  1. Twiggy's Tonic: A reusable Potion of Haste.
  2. Twiggy's Scroll of Wisdom: A scroll that contains the buffs of all rank 8 buff scrolls. Can be applied to other players.
  3. The Trunk of Yggdrasil: A 36-slot bag, will be available in the store shortly.
Vote statistics:

A sidebox list of the top voters of all time and for the current month is now present on the website. Remember, voters with streaks exceeding 7 days will get double the Vote Tokens! Thank you for supporting our growth.

December Scrapbook Contest Winner!

With the end of December comes also the end of the month's scrapbook contest! The most cherished entry came from Luciferr, with the following caption:

"Welcome to Dalaran"

We sincerely hope you all feel welcome on Yggdrasil. And remember, next month's reward can be yours by participating in the Discord scrapbook channel!

The Yggdrasil Staff

New year, new vote lists!



Happy new year, everyone! Every new year is a bringer of change. One of these changes is that (many) vote lists have reset. To ensure we set ourselves up for visibility and growth, it's important that we all collaborate to vote Yggdrasil up on the vote sites.

Each vote is awarded a Vote Token, exchangable in-game for vanity items and various currencies. New in 2025, however, is that each player that has voted for at least 1 week consecutively, will get 2x Vote Tokens per vote from day 8 for as long as the streak is active!

Happy voting!
