Live service
Burning Crusade Classic Anniversary Edition is the anniversary progression into Outland. It is a separate release from the earlier Burning Crusade Classic cycle.
Blood Elf and Draenei, flying mounts, Jewelcrafting and Outland are part of this release. Anniversary service features and its phase schedule need their own evidence rather than assumptions from the original TBC client.
A later balance or phase change belongs to this branch. Original TBC, Classic progression and Anniversary talent data remain distinct until exact compatibility is demonstrated.
