Party joined, but friends are invisible

  1. Make sure you can share a world: same region, faction and ruleset. The grouping rules list what must match. Then travel to the same place.
  2. After accepting the invitation, look for the blue world-refresh message near the lower-right corner of the screen. Click it and choose Refresh Now once you are somewhere safe.
  3. Target each other to confirm you are together before starting an escort or a fight.
  4. Still separated? Log out and back in, away from enemies. That has brought some groups back together.

CurseForge cannot find the right Forever addons

  1. In CurseForge, select the Forever game instance, open its three-dot menu and choose Open instance settings.
  2. Under World of Warcraft, select the installed instance and set Change instance flavor to Forever. If Forever is not listed, update CurseForge and rescan installed games.
  3. Use the instance’s Open folder control and compare the AddOns folder it shows with the client you launch. If they differ, your addons are going into another installation.
  4. Back up your settings, install the Forever version of the addon, then check the addon list in game. The addon guide covers manual installation.

The flavor setting only makes CurseForge show and install Forever files. An addon still has to offer a Forever version.

Voidwalker attacks instead of using Consume Shadows

With a hostile enemy selected, a Voidwalker told to use Consume Shadows can run at that enemy instead of healing. Two things help:

  1. Clear your target before using the ability, and use it after combat has ended.
  2. Put the ability on a macro that casts it with no target:
#showtooltip
/cast [target=none] Consume Shadows

If you play in another language, use the ability name exactly as your client shows it. The macro works for many players, not all.

Rogue cannot obtain The Manor, Ravenholdt

Some Rogue trainers close the dialogue without handing over the Ravenholdt letter. The quest needs level 24, so check your level, quest log and bags first.

  • Horde: ask an Orgrimmar Rogue trainer for a replacement whistle, keep it in your bags, then ask for the letter again. Players report that this works.
  • Alliance: no workaround is known. Report it on Blizzard’s bug forum with the trainer’s name and your level, and keep the quest and items you already have.
