Updated November 11, 2026. Blizzard has confirmed a fix for World of Warcraft: Forever Shamans who lost totems during the November 9 server disruption. At approximately 01:10 UTC on November 11, community manager Kaivax said the repair had been deployed across all regions.
How to recover missing totems
- Make sure your character has free bag space.
- If you are currently logged in, log out and log back in.
- Check your bags for the totems that disappeared after the crash.
- If they are still absent, document the character and missing items and contact Blizzard Support or follow the official bug thread.
Blizzard specifically mentioned players who lost a totem due to the crash. This does not prove that every unrelated Shaman totem bug, item visibility issue or missing quest reward was fixed by the same deployment.
Was it caused by build 70888?
The official reply describes a live fix, but does not explicitly attribute the underlying item-loss problem or the repair to the 1.60.1.70888 client download. Server-side restoration can occur separately from client updates. Keep the two timelines distinct.
