Happy 2025!

Hi Patrons!

Hope you've all had a great holiday season, and you're as excited for a new year as we are. I'm here to update you a bit on what we've been up to, and maybe a few sneak peeks of upcoming features..

With Fresh launching a few months back, we're now supporting 6 versions of WoW (Retail, Cata Classic, Season of Discovery, Vanilla Era, Fresh/Hardcore, CN WoTLK), that combined with the other games and websites we support (FF14, ESO, SWTOR, Archon, Wipefest, WoWAnalyzer, Tomestone) equals a ton of maintenance work! There's always a new release on the horizon and we're thankful for all your support & patience while our relatively small team try to cover all the bases. As we are limited by engineering time rather than work to do, part of our struggles is prioritizing the right kind of work. Getting feedback from you and our users is vital to this process, so make sure you've joined us on Discord (Links: WCL, FF Logs, ESO Logs, SWTORLogs) if you want to be part of that!

We're always thinking about fun new features for you supporters. The past few months, we've added new banners to your character pages and guild/statics, made a lot of progress on new FF Meter features (Race the ghost.. 👀) and more. Is there a sub feature you'd like to see or want us to improve on?

Updates & Misc

Spell Reflect in Logs?!

From today onwards, logs are capable of showing Spell Reflection from Warriors in WoW. This is not retroactive, but you can re-upload older files.

By default, this damage is excluded from rankings and we're still working out how to surface it better. It is on by default for dungeon logs, but for raid logs, you'll need to append &options=8192 to the url. Note that this also includes unfiltered damage (e.g. Ansurek).

Looking for PTR Logs? Look no further!

We try to always prepare zones before PTR is up, so you can browse through the logs easily. The current PTR zones can be found here:

• SoD Naxxramas PTR Logs

• Liberation of Undermine PTR Logs

• Mythic+ Season 2 PTR Logs

Classic, SoD & Fresh Speedrun Updates

We've updated the trash requirements for Firelands, SoD AQ and Fresh MC by feedback and proposals from the community. You can read the articles for Firelands and SoD here:

• Firelands Speedrun Rules article

• SoD AQ Speedrun Rules article

There will be a Fresh MC Speedrun article out soon too, but for now you can find the requirements on Discord, or in your uploaded logs:

You can also re-export any logs to get updated with the current requirements!

As always, this is just a little highlight of some of the things we've been up to. Your support makes all this possible and we're incredibly grateful for it. Thanks for a great 2024 and here's to another year!

Thank you,

Vel & the Archon team ❤️
