Blizzard Entertainment has published the final structural engineering notes for The War Within ahead of the global launch window. The update overhauls account progression via the Warband framework, allowing shared bank storage, reputation gains, and transmog collection across all characters on an account.

Account Progression & Delves

Warband Architecture: Bank storage, renown tracks, and crafting materials are instantly unified across characters, eliminating redundant alt grinding.
Bite-Sized Endgame (Delves): 1-to-5 player repeatable endgame instances scaled with companion AI (Brann Bronzebeard) offering Great Vault raid-tier reward track progression.
Hero Talents: Class specialization trees receive evergreen secondary talent sub-trees designed to preserve rotation clarity while introducing role flavor.

Infrastructure Improvements

Server shard capacity has been increased to support smooth cross-realm guild raiding without region lock friction. Cross-faction play is now default across all matchmade instance queues.
