What's changing
The XP is in the questsMobs give less XP, and dungeon quests give more. Pick them up before heading in.
Loot and transmogEvery item that drops unlocks its appearance for everyone eligible to loot it.
No teleportingThe group finder doesn't take you to the entrance, and meeting stones don't summon: you have to walk there or get a Warlock summon.
No map or journalThe new ones have no map, there are secret bosses and loot is hidden until it drops for the first time. Prepare before you go in.
The new ones, up close
| City of Dalaran | Compact. Both factions enter through the sewers; the Horde has a quest chain to get the key. |
|---|---|
| Excavation Site | In the Wetlands: tall grass and raptor ambushes. |
| Krol'dok Stronghold | Ogres, in Riverglades. |
| Blackmaw Hold | Bigger than Blackrock Depths, at the old entrance to Azshara. Designed to stay relevant at level 60. |
| Hall of Thanes | Beneath Ironforge, but not Alliance-only. |
Raids
| At launch | None. There's time to level up and gear up. |
|---|---|
| Dec 9 | Barrow Deeps (10 players), Hyjal Summit (20) and Onyxia's Lair (40). Onyxia keeps her attunement (per character); the other two can be entered without a chain. Where they are and the Onyxia chain. |
| What they'll be like | Each phase brings a 10-player and a 20-player raid; 40-player ones from time to time. A single difficulty and no cross-faction groups. |
| Spring 2027 | Two new raids, for 10 and 20 players, plus two more dungeons. |
| Summer 2027 | A revamped classic raid, a new raid and two more dungeons. |
