Experience Buff Now Account-Wide During Turbulent Timeways - June 30 to August 11

Update:Mastery of Timewaysnotread hereMastery of Timeways

Once more, the Bronze Dragonflight has discovered growing disturbances in the timeways as several rapidly intersect our own.

When : June 30–August 11

Timewalk through a previous expansion each week for six consecutive weeks, beginning and ending with Dragonflight. This grand tour through World of Warcraft’s past features six Timewalking Dungeons: Algeth’ar Academy, Halls of Infusion, Neltharus, Ruby Life Pools, The Azure Vaults, and Brackenhide Hollow.

Players can also shop at a new Dragonflight vendor, Xydan, located in the Bronze Enclave in Valdrakken.
Also, for the duration of Turbulent Timeways, the Timewalking quest available from the weekly quest giver will offer an increased reward—a Heroic Cache of Quel’Thalas Treasures with items level 259–276.

Time to Buff Up

Those who run any Timewalking dungeon during the event get the “Knowledge of the Timeways” buff, granting a 5% increase to experience when killing monsters and completing quests.

Completing Timewalking dungeons increases the effect and extends its duration. This is a stacking buff, and after four applications, it transforms into “Mastery of the Timeways,” increasing the experience gained from killing monsters and completing quests to 30%.

The buff lasts through death and is account-wide, which makes for an excellent opportunity to level up any alts.

Master the Timeways for a New Mount

This season, players can earn the Spawn of Vyranoth flying mount by completing the “Master of the Turbulent Timeways V” achievement, awarded to champions who maintain “Mastery of the Timeways” for any four weeks during the event.

“Vyranoth's brood was decimated by the aspects, yet her actions have brought many of her surviving progeny to follow in her frigid path and aid in Azeroth's defense.”

Don’t Let Time Pass You By

Timewalking dungeons have a chance to drop items that usually drop when you run them on Heroic, and you'll earn Reputation with a faction associated with the dungeon. Enemies and loot will automatically scale to your level.

While Timewalking is active, you will gain a 50% bonus to reputations earned from quests and creature kills for all reputations related to the corresponding expansion.

To get to any one of the dungeons, open the Group Finder (default hotkey: “I”) and then select Dungeon Finder and Timewalking in the “Type” dropdown menu. Selecting “Find Group” will match you with other players and send you to one of the available Heroic Dungeons.

Trade In Your Timewarped Badges

New rewards and returning favorites from past Turbulent Timeways events, including the Bronze Wilderling, Bronze Corpsefly, Bronze Gravewing, and Bronze Aquilon Shadowlands mounts, can be found on the Timewalking vendor throughout the event.

The Covenant restrictions for these Shadowlands mounts have been lifted. For example, if you choose a Venthyr Mount (Bronze Gravewing) but are not part of the Venthyr Covenant faction, you can still ride this mount.

Comment by DeathcamGood for leveling new alts to have the 30% buff from the start instead of having to build up every time.Comment by CorpselanceRest in Pieces to the people exploiting with getting every new TT mount on day 1. XDComment by EudeyrnI believe this means you can't use an alt to get the full stack buff, log off for the week, and then run a single dungeon each following week on that alt to get the achievement. The account-wide buff timer will now count down on your main. If so, this is actually worse for people who just wanted to get the achievement, but better overall if you're actually leveling different alts each week.Comment by hairythighsTrash, as always can't do anything right due to inexperience with actually playing the game.

Account-wide xp buff means anytime you're doing something other than timewalking, that's expiring. Instead of sticking to the character who needs it, that will be constantly getting reset back to zero.Comment by Rhordricmight be a nerf depending on how long the buff lasts. if its still only 3-4 hours im gonna have to run a stupid tw dungeon after every raid night. instead of just parking an alt for a month and running a single dungeon a week and i hope theyve fixed the tuning on tw. because the past few weeks its felt harder than a +10 keyComment by ButMadNNWI believe this means you can't use an alt to get the full stack buff, log off for the week, and then run a single dungeon each following week on that alt to get the achievement.

Going to be a lot of cryingComment by SiegmundFretzgauThis kills the alt method for getting the event mount first week, lol.Comment by PyriusA classic "but why?" moment from Blizzard.Comment by DraethDarkstarIf they're going to make the buff last a week, fine. If it's still limited to a 3 hour duration, this sucks.Comment by MattstaThe blog post for the last Turbulent Timeways (link) also said that it was account-wide, but it wasn't. Maybe it actually will be this time...?Comment by bulldozer435A classic "but why?" moment from Blizzard.
Yeah, if that's the case, it'll be a bit of a hassle for those of us who have jobs/families/school/whatever and don't have time to run four dungeons every week on top of whatever else we wanted to do in-game with our limited game time.
Comment by rodalphoThis is a great change, but the end result is I won't be leveling my alts in 12.0.7 until the timewalking XP buff is available, so another 2 weeks there. I have a bunch of alts with 10 delve quests done all ready to go.Comment by lovelywazRest in Pieces to the people exploiting with getting every new TT mount on day 1. XDComment by Seefer79Just in time for me to not need it lolComment by emmsnakeI think this is largely a good thing. People saying this is a totally bad thing are making legit critiques look bad.Comment by Chr1st0phHow people have found a way to complain about not having to grind out timewalking on multiple alts for them to get the buffs beyond me. Blizzard could remove the sub cost and make the game free outside of buying the expansion and people would still find a way to complain about that.

Nothing they do will ever be enough for some people.Comment by HollyLamedaleExcited for the Vyranoth mount. One of the few mounts they've added that look good and has me hyped. Most mounts are so meh these days man.Comment by DaleykaiRest in Pieces to the people exploiting with getting every new TT mount on day 1. XD
