Mark your calendars and prepare for new adventures. Several paths to power lie before you, and only you can determine which route you’ll take. Are you ready to face the terrors sealed away inside the new Uldir raid? Looking forward to bringing another Allied Race into the Horde or Alliance? Prepping for the first PvP or Mythic Dungeon season? The choice is ultimately yours.

Make (and Play) New Friends!

With the release of Battle for Azeroth on August 14, players will begin their journey toward bringing two new Allied Races to the fold: Mag’har orcs and Dark Iron dwarves. You’ll earn their loyalty through the expansion’s War Campaign and will need to meet the following requirements to add their might to your faction:

Reach level 120
Become Exalted with the key subfaction from your side’s War Campaign:
- Alliance: 7th Legion
- Horde: The Honorbound
Complete the War Campaign in Kul Tiras and Zandalar and earn the Achievement Ready for War (both Horde and Alliance).

There’s plenty of ground to cover in Battle for Azeroth, and it all comes down to where you’ll focus your efforts first.

Uldir Awaits

Millenia ago, seeking to understand the nature of their eternal foe, the titans constructed this sprawling underground facility to research and quarantine captured specimens. They hoped that by studying the void energy that bound the Old Gods, probing it for weaknesses and reactions, they could find some way to neutralize it. They were horribly, horribly wrong. The facility was sealed away so that the horrors within would never be unleashed upon Azeroth. But now those seals have broken. . . .

Raid Bosses: 8
Difficulties: Raid Finder, Normal, Heroic, Mythic
Level: 120

September 4 – Normal and Heroic open
September 11 – Mythic, Raid Finder Wing 1: Halls of Containment (Taloc, MOTHER, Zek’voz, Herald of N’zoth)
September 25 – Raid Finder Wing 2: Crimson Descent (Fetid Devourer, Vectis, Zul, Reborn)
October 9 – Raid Finder Wing 3: Heart of Corruption (Mythrax the Unraveler, G’huun)

Battle for Azeroth: PvP Season 1 – September 4

Ready your swords and boards: the new PvP season is on its way. Battle for Azeroth PvP Season 1 kicks off September 4 with new rewards and two new Arenas — Hook Point and The Mugambala. Read about rated PvP updates and rewards here and prepare to leap, blink, sneak, or charge your way into the action.

Battle for Azeroth: Mythic Keystone Dungeon Season 1 – September 4

We’re adding a new layer to Mythic Keystone Dungeons with the introduction of Mythic Dungeon seasons that align with the latest content and rewards. As a part of Season 1, we will be introducing using a new seasonal affix—Infested—which will appear on level 10 or higher Keystones. The Infested affix reflects the extent of the corruption of the blood god G’huun as it seeps out into Azeroth to infect select denizens of each dungeon. With each new season, we’ll be changing out this third affix to keep players on their toes. How will you deal with these new dangers?

Uhh...please tell me that's a typo and you mean Revered?Comment by sinangelusDoes that mean we need to do the rep on 2 characters of opposite factions now? In Legion you could grind all 4 reps on the same character then just do the questline, but I don't think it will be possible with BFA incarnation.Comment by goldindawnstill waiting for the fox race confirmComment by Bloodvalor21Well obviously. But those were factions actually devoted to that particular race. And was made up of individuals from those races. Thought it might be different since Honorbound and 7th Legion not related specifically to those races. But its fine. Never had issues grinding repComment by JaceDraccusAt least this suggests that Mag'har/Dark Iron will be available to work on at launch. Happy with that.Comment by toddiuszhoNow Alliance will never get Tuskarr. Blizz will point to Kul Tiran and say close enough!Comment by livieUh, you meant Zandalari right....RIGHT?

Just gotta be sure.Comment by corrupt733Does anyone know if we will be able to earn exalted for both these factions on 1 toon or will we need to do it separately on an Alliance and Horde toon?Comment by PeredhilDoes that mean we need to do the rep on 2 characters of opposite factions now? In Legion you could grind all 4 reps on the same character then just do the questline, but I don't think it will be possible with BFA incarnation.HonorComment by SquirePipAdd Raid Finder is still getting dumped on. Seriously Blizz if you are going to stick with this you can't complete raid finder until over a month after the raid opens you might as well just remove it from the game. I could see a silver of the logic when you could complete raid tier sets with Raid Finder, but now that is a thing of the past is people feeling like they aren't special snowflakes if someone clears a raid on Raid Finder difficulty before someone else does on normal really that big of a deal? I mean if that is the logic why are normal dungeons not gated until after people clear them on heroic. And before someone tells me to "just run normal if I don't want to wait" unless you are willing to invite me and let me run with you when I basically cannot hear anything over voice chat, just stop.Comment by ch4ndyDoes anyone know if we will be able to earn exalted for both these factions on 1 toon or will we need to do it separately on an Alliance and Horde toon?
