Among the new features introduced in WoW The War Within, its delves have been one of the nicest additions. These short-form scenarios can be taken on solo or in a group of up to five, with the ability to bring an NPC along with you to fill out the necessary roles for your party. They offer both a cozy familiarity to Torghast and the ability to snag some nice endgame gear along the way, including some exclusive rewards. Unfortunately, as The War Within Season 1 kicks off, Blizzard warns that one of them is posing a particular problem for players right now.
Alex described delves as "the expansion's high point" in our World of Warcraft players are finding it difficult to get back out.
"We are aware of an issue with the Nightfall Sanctum delve that may cause characters to become stuck if they die," the Blizzard Customer writes in a post to X/Twitter. "While investigations are ongoing, we suggest avoiding this delve. Thank you for your patience." After receiving reports that players were being given no option to resurrect, the team says it "can confirm it is not working as intended."
Of course, given that the issue primarily seems to crop up if you die, you might be tempted to head in anyway if you're particularly confident in your abilities – but don't say you weren't warned. If you have ended up in this situation, Blizzard recommends attempting to follow the steps described in its 'character stuck dead' article.
While we wait for a fix to roll out, perhaps it's worth taking a look through the best new MMOs on PC instead, if you prefer.
