Greetings, everyone!
Our first major content arrives: Season 2 - Embers of Neltharion!
Patch 10.1.0 will be released on May 27th 2024!
NEW ZONE: ZARALEK CAVERN
Zaralek Cavern is a new underground zone in the Ohn’ahran Plains. Accessible through a network of tunnels, this zone continues the Campaign questline and introduces new World Quests, rare encounters, and two World Bosses: Vakan and Gholna.
Meet the Niffen faction and revisit the Drogbar.
New Dragonriding mount obtained through the Campaign.
To access Zaralek Cavern, complete the “News From Beneath" or "The Land Beneath" quests. Look for entrances within the chasm between Valdrakken and Ohn’ahran Plains on your map, and ensure your drake is well-rested for the journey ahead!
NEW RAID: ABERRUS, THE SHADOWED CRUCIBLE
Millennia ago, Neltharion carved deep chasms in the earth where he conducted experiments. After his death, these sites were lost to time, but forces hungry for power now seek to claim Deathwing’s legacy.
A new raid comes with Embers of Neltharion. Gather your allies and breach Deathwing’s secret laboratory hidden within Zaralek Cavern. Here, he created the Dracthyr and ultimately fell to the whispers of the Old Gods and their corruption.
In Aberrus you will encounter 9 bosses, culminating with Scalecommander Sarkareth as the final boss.
Aberrus will be fully available on LFR, Normal and Heroic; Mythic will be released shortly after.
Class Tier Sets will drop in Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible. Each Tier Set has a unique dragon theme.

UNIVERSAL UPGRADE SYSTEM
Patch 10.1 introduced a new universal gear upgrade system to WoW. This system revolves around collecting Flightstones and Crests, allowing gear obtained in the current Dragonflight season to be upgraded. Gear from Open World, Mythic , Raid, and PvP can be upgraded using this system.
Flightstones are obtained from a multitude of activities. From completing events in open zones like the Zaralek Caverns, to completing Mythic dungeons, to killing raid bosses, or any current Season activity.
Awakened Crests can be obtained mainly from defeating raid bosses, completing higher-level Mythic dungeons, and Rated PvP. A limited amount can also be obtained from open-world activities.
NEW FACTION: LOAMM NIFFEN
Along with the Drogbar that you may remember from Legion, Zaralek Cavern is home to the Loamm Niffen. The Niffen offers new Renown, quests, and a new exploration mini-game, Sniffenseek digs.
Sniffenseek digs are approximately 5 minutes in length and involve exploring secret caves via a puzzle mechanic that involves “stealthin', sniffin’, diggin’, or usin' logic”.
In Zaralek Cavern, every scent tells a story, every puzzle conceals a clue. Sniff, dig, and solve the puzzles of the Loamm Niffen to obtain pets, mounts and cosmetics from this faction.
