Get Ready for a Blast from the Past in WoW
The classic dungeon Blackrock Depths has been reimagined as a 10-15 player raid featuring eight bosses available in LFR, Normal, and Heroic modes. It’s time to return to the depths with friends, old and new. But that’s not all — Classic Dungeons are making a comeback in the Timewalking rotation, including iconic locations like the Deadmines (original classic version), Dire Maul (east and west wings), and Stratholme (living and undead wings). Queue up via the LFD tool and relive the classic dungeon experience.
New World Bosses are also on the prowl. Take on old favorites like Sha of Anger from Mists of Pandaria and Archavon the Stonewatcher from Wrath of the Lich King, now with new rewards to claim. Additionally, don’t miss the chance to earn Legendary Rewards — new mounts, pets, and transmog sets are up for grabs through a new currency: Bronze Celebration Tokens. Plus, updated Tier 2 armor sets are available for all classes, with new designs for those who missed the original release..
This content update will also hone in additional changes and features for players, which include new quests, class balance updates, and exciting expansions of the Dracthyr race into six new combat classes rogue, mage, and priest.
