NexusLoot and Rewards

Completing 5 Timewalking dungeons in Una strada bloccata nel tempo rewards Sigillo del Destino Inevitabile which is the bonus roll currency for Tier 18 and Mythic Dungeon loot, as well as a Cassa del Tesoro della Flotta di Ferro containing normal-mode Hellfire Citadel loot.

The gear earned from Timewalking bosses is ilvl 660, which is better than gear from Heroic Dungeons, Highmaul Normal, and Highmaul LFR.

If you did not run this instance back in the day, Timewalking is a great opportunity to learn more about the instance with friends. Players above level 81 can queue together for this Timewalking instance, so this is a fun way to play with friends that are not max level.

All bosses drop 5 Distintivo Fuoritempo (end bosses 10 Distintivo Fuoritempo), and this currency is used to purchase mounts, toys, badge gear, and more. See the full list in our Timewalking Guide.

For completing the instance and killing every boss, you can earn 0 Distintivo Fuoritempo.

Commander Stoutbeard/Commander KolurgComandante KolurgComandante BarbaforteNotable Trash Mobs:Cacciatore Asceso di MaghiCacciamaghi

Mage Slayers have Visione del Veggente, which will occasionally briefly lock a caster DPS or the healer out of spells

Mage Slayers additionally cast Estrazione Magica, which empowers their damage and reduces the damage or healing of players within 30 yards

Mage Hunter Ascendants will cast Palla di Fuoco at their threat target, and occasionally buff themselves and allies with Aura di Celerità Arcana

The Aura buff can be dispelled from the Ascendant who cast it, but cannot be dispelled from other enemies who received the buff

Rangers will Tiro the current tank and will cast Tiro Celere, firing randomly at nearby players

Berserkers have powerful melee attacks, buff themselves with Frenesia, buff an ally with Brama di Sangue, and occasionally use Urto di Guerra to knock back nearby players

Clerics cast Cura Rapida and Parola del Potere: Scudo on their allies, and cast Parola d'Ombra: Morte on the tank

Urto di GuerraBrama di SangueParola del Potere: ScudoCommander Stoutbeard/Commander Kolurg Tips & StrategyCura RapidaParola del Potere: Scudo

Urlo di Battaglia increases the melee damage of Commander and all nearby allies

Urlo Spaventoso will fear all nearby players for six seconds

The fear effect is Physical, so only effects such as and Totem del Tremore can prevent it; healers cannot dispel it

Turbine will deal heavy damage to players in melee range once the cast is completed

Pull the Commander back along the hallway, so that players affected by his Urlo Spaventoso do not pull additional enemies

Interrupt the Clerics' Cura Rapida and stun the Clerics when possible

Kite the Turbine away from allies

Ranged DPS should stand more than 8 yards from the Commander to avoid being affected by Urlo Spaventoso

Melee DPS should run away from the Commander when he begins casting Turbine

Focus DPS on the Clerics first, or, be sure to interrupt their Cura Rapida casts

Use self-healing or defensive cooldowns if you are low after the Turbine, in case you are chosen for Carica

Stand more than 8 yards from the Commander to avoid being affected by Urlo Spaventoso

Quickly top off any players damaged by the Turbine, so they do not die if they are selected for the Carica

The Carica target will require single-target healing

Tank damage increases when the Commander empowers himself and allies with Urlo di Battaglia, especially if players have accidentally pulled additional packs

Grand Magus TelestraNotable Trash Mobs:Cacciatore Principiante di MaghiCustode

Stewards deal heavy melee damage to the tank and will occasionally use Torrente Arcano to silence all players within 10 yards

Mage Hunter Initiates will heal allies with Rinnovamento, which can be dispelled

Initiates will also affect the tank with Combustione Magica, a long-lasting DoT effect that healers can dispel

Grand Magus Telestra Tips & StrategyGran Magus TelestraFuocobombaEsplosione di GhiaccioFuocobombaEsplosione di Ghiaccio

The Arcane image will cast Metamorfosi, which polymorphs a random party member, and Tempo Fermo, which briefly stuns all players

The Fire image will cast Bruciatura and Detonazione di Fuoco on her current threat target

The Frost image will cast Daga di Ghiaccio at random players and may summon a Tormenta

All three images are susceptible to stuns and all forms of crowd control, and many of their casts can be interrupted

MetamorfosiPozzo Gravitazionale

Be sure to taunt the Fire image so that its casts are not aimed at more vulnerable players

Stun and interrupt the images as frequently as possible, particularly the Arcane image's Metamorfosi cast

Avoid Fuocobomba and Tormenta damage

Cleave off of the Arcane image to ensure the Arcane image dies first

Dodge Fuocobomba by moving from your current location when its cast finishes

Avoid Tormenta damage

Use stuns and interrupts on the Mirror Images as frequently as possible, particularly the Arcane image's critter cast

The party will take spiky single-target damage from Daga di Ghiaccio, and moderate AoE damage during Pozzo Gravitazionale

Tank damage is only significant when the Fire image is alive

Dispel any players affected by Metamorfosi or Tormenta

Avoid Fuocobomba and Tormenta damage

AnomalusNotable Trash Mobs:

Vincolascaglie di Zaffiros cast Cura on their allies and will cast Detonazione Arcana on their threat target; both spells can be interrupted

Scagnozzo di Zaffiros will use Glifo - Geist on the tank, and also have a Fendente that hits up to three nearby players

Fenditura Caoticas will summon Presenza di Mana Freneticas and attack the party occasionally with Scarica di Energia Caotica

Crazed Mana-Wraiths cast Missili Arcani on random players

Eruzione di Mana Freneticas cast Esplosione Arcana, damaging players and healing allies within 10 yards

Mana-Surges will also cast Combustione del Mana at their threat target, dealing damage based upon the amount of mana drained

When Mana-Surges die, Mana Libero will flow in the area near their corpses

Anomalus Tips & StrategyAnomalusFenditure CaricheScudo della Fenditura

The Scudo della Fenditura lasts for 45 seconds or until all Chaotic Rifts have been destroyed

Fenditure Cariche grants the Chaotic Rifts extra range and damage from Scarica di Energia Caotica, and causes them to summon Crazed Mana-Wraiths more frequently

Players should switch to the Chaotic Rifts and destroy them quickly, then clean up any Crazed Mana-Wraiths that the Rifts have spawned

He will cast Scintilla at his current threat target

Anomalus will occasionally debuff a random player with Attrazione Arcana, increasing the amount of Arcane damage the targeted player will take for 10 seconds

Note that this affects Anomalus's damage as well as the Crazed Mana-Wraiths' Missili Arcani and the Chaotic Rift's Scarica di Energia Caotica

Healers should dispel the Attrazione Arcana debuff from the affected player

Pull Anomalus next to Chaotic Rifts to allow splash/cleave damage on the Rifts and Mana-Wraiths

Use a damage-reduction cooldown during Fenditure Cariche, since the first hit of Scarica di Energia Caotica will likely target you

This is especially important if debuffed by Attrazione Arcana

Quickly kill Chaotic Rifts when they spawn or during Fenditure Cariche

Crazed Mana-Wraiths can be cleaned up by passive cleave or efficient AoE abilities

If affected by Attrazione Arcana, use a personal survivability cooldown

The tank damage is high outside of the Fenditure Cariche phase

Dispel Attrazione Arcana from the affected player quickly

Ormorok the Tree-ShaperNotable Trash Mobs:

Pianta Logorante Cristallinas will Intralciamento players, and rather than die, they enter a Baccello di Semiand will emerge again later

Players should quickly kill the Frayers and keep moving through the area so they do not aggro the respawning adds

Custode Cristallinos will buff themselves with Corteccia di Cristallo; attackers will take damage with each attack and may be affected by Congelamento di Cristallo

The Corteccia di Cristallo debuff can be removed by classes with offensive dispels

Keepers will also attack the tank with Assalto di Cristallo, dealing moderate damage

Guardialbero Cristallinos may cast Tranquillità to heal their allies, which can be interrupted or stunned

Tenders also buff themselves with Pelle Rinforzata, which can be removed by classes with offensive dispels

Protettore Cristallinos' Cosmetic - Fire Beam Snake is a cone attack, and tanks should keep the Protectors facing away from the party

Protectors also target a random player with Catene di Cristallo, rooting them in place; healers can dispel this effect

Ormorok the Tree-Shaper Tips & StrategyOrmorok il Pastore di Alberi

Calpestamento will occasionally deal moderate Physical damage to all players within 10 yards of Ormorok

Ormorok creates Punte di Cristallo that radiate out from his position and erupt several seconds later, knocking nearby players into the air and dealing heavy damage

At 30% health, Ormorok enters a Frenesia, dealing 50% additional Physical damage; this effect cannot be removed

Intrico Cristallino

These adds have a chance to Intrico players on successful melee hits

This is dangerous if the Intrico occurs just before a Crystal Spike emerges; Tangled players will take full damage from a Spike

Tanglers do not have a conventional threat table, and will typically attack the first target they notice, which is usually the healer

Intrico cannot be dispelled, but abilities that remove movement-impairing effects will break the root

Crystalline Tanglers do not follow conventional threat, so do not bother taunting them

Move out of Punte di Cristallo

Use stronger cooldowns after Ormorok enters his Frenesia at 30% health

Swap to Crystalline Tanglers and kill them quickly

Move out of Punte di Cristallo

If possible, use an ability that removes movement-impairing effects if you are targeted by Crystalline Tanglers' Intrico

Ranged DPS should stand more than 10 yards from the boss to avoid Calpestamento, and to make dodging Punte di Cristallo easier

The tank will require extra healing during Frenesia, once Ormorok reaches 30% health

Move out of Punte di Cristallo

If possible, use an ability that removes movement-impairing effects if you are targeted by Crystalline Tanglers' Intrico

Stand more than 10 yards from the boss to avoid Calpestamento, and to make dodging Punte di Cristallo easier

KeristraszaNotable Trash Mobs:Keristrasza Tips & StrategyKeristraszaSoffio di Fuoco CristallinoSpazzata di CodaFreddo IntensoFreddo IntensoFreddo IntensoCristallizzazioneFreddo IntensoCristallizzazioneCristallizzazione

Keep Keristrasza facing away from ranged DPS/healer to prevent spreading Soffio di Fuoco Cristallino damage

Frequently move to clear the Freddo Intenso debuff, but take care not to turn the boss, so melee are not hit by Spazzata di Coda

If possible, use an ability that removes movement-impairing effects (e.g. Shapeshift, Hand of Freedom), or grants you immunity from magical debuffs (e.g. Anti-Magic Shell) to prevent or remove Cristallizzazioned

If your party cannot clear Enrage effects, save your most powerful survivability tools for Keristrasza's Enrage at 25% health

Frequently move to clear the Freddo Intenso debuff; a single stutter-step or jump is enough to clear your stacks

Avoid being behind or in front of the boss; particularly, melee DPS should take care to stay on Keristrasza's side to avoid Spazzata di Coda

Use personal damage-reduction cooldowns during Cristallizzazione to cope with the increasing stacks of Freddo Intenso, or use abilities that remove magical/movement-impairing effects

If possible, remove Keristrasza's Enrage effect at 25% health

Dispel Cristallizzazione off of players with high Freddo Intenso stacks, so they can reset their stacks

AoE healing requirements should be fairly light if players manage Freddo Intenso well; focus on the tank, particularly during Soffio di Fuoco Cristallino

Players who are not managing Freddo Intenso well will take heavy damage

Avoid being behind or in front of the boss; particularly, melee DPS should take care to stay on Keristrasza's side to avoid Spazzata di Coda

Use personal damage-reduction cooldowns during Cristallizzazione to cope with the increasing stacks of Freddo Intenso, or use abilities that remove magical/movement-impairing effects
