World of Warcraft has delayed the implementation of the Sell All Junk button that was supposed to launch with Patch 10.1.5, Fractures in Time. This new quality of life feature will instead be released alongside World of Warcraft Patch 10.1.7.
As a part of its ongoing process of overhauling the UI and increasing quality of life, World of Warcraft recently announced it would be adding a Sell All Junk button. This feature automatically vendors all junk items, learning their transmog appearances in the process. Originally, this button was going to be launched as a part of Fractures in Time, WoW’s newest content update that recently went live.
However, some unfortunate last-minute issues appeared regarding the new feature. While exactly what happened is unknown, it meant the Sell All Junk button would not be ready for World of Warcraft Patch 10.1.5. Instead, the Sell All Junk button will be included as a part of Patch 10.1.7, which is expected to release sometime in the next couple of months.
Interestingly enough, several popular add-ons have had the functionality to sell all junk items for many years now. That said, these third-party programs are not official parts of the World of Warcraft client. With all its moving parts, implementing the feature in WoW was bound to encounter some issues, especially considering the work it has done in overhauling its user interface in Dragonflight.
Some fans are disappointed the Sell All Junk button wasn’t ready for Patch 10.1.5. They think that, if third-party add-ons can do it, Blizzard should be able to as well. Even so, it is better for World of Warcraft to take the time to ensure there are no glitches before implementing the new feature–after all, if the Sell All Junk button started vendoring equipped gear or raid drops, players would be far more upset.
Little is known about Patch 10.1.7 itself yet besides its planned release date in the fall. According to its previous roadmap, players can expect additional story and quests, in-game holidays, and additional system updates for World of Warcraft. This could include Heritage Armor questlines for the few races missing them, other new quality of life features, and a teaser for the Patch 10.2 zone. Blizzard is releasing an In Development blog on July 13, so players might learn the first details of this upcoming patch very soon.
World of Warcraft is available now for PC.
