Story Campaign: “The Promise of Tomorrow”
Ula'tek's defeat has awoken a long-slumbering terror. Temper an uneasy peace between Quel'thalas and Zul'Aman, descend to the deepest depths of the Coiled Isle, and make a final stand against the Amani's ancient foe—the C'Thraxxi general, Kith'ix.
New Single-Boss Raid: The Unbinding of Kith’ix
Hidden beneath the Vaults of Ula’tek, Kith’ix was bound in his subterranean lair. With the defeat of Ula’tek, the restraints keeping Kith’ix at bay have weakened, unleashing the monstrosity the Amani locked away so long ago.
Face Kith’ix alongside Lady Liadrin in a focused one-boss raid encounter that brings the escalating threat of the campaign to a decisive confrontation. Gather your allies and prepare for a battle that caps the story of Quel’thalas and Zul’Aman.
Labyrinths: Conquer the Depths to Claim the Rewards
For players who love Delves and are looking for a deeper adventure, welcome to Labyrinths.
While they maintain the spirit of exploration, discovery, and overcoming challenges alongside a companion, Labyrinths are sprawling, mega-dungeon-like experiences designed to be conquered on your terms, with dedicated progression systems, powerful unlocks, and rewards that reflect the scale of the challenge.
Venture through them in a single epic session or tackle them piece by piece over time, progressing at your own pace. The further you go, the more opportunities you'll uncover to advance your character and claim treasures worthy of the risks ahead.
Like Delves, Labyrinths send you into danger with a trusted companion at your side. Valeera Sanguinar will guide you as you push deeper into the unknown.
Explore the First Labyrinth: Kindo’jan
An ancient Amani funeral complex previously sealed for centuries. Once again opened, the complex is combed by looters and Vilebranch for relics while the interred spirits defend it with deadly force.
Outdoor Event: Aqir Invasion
Charge into Aqir Invasions—new zone-wide public events that will occur in Eversong or Zul’Aman.
For ten minutes every hour, champions will complete a series of public events across the entire area one after another before facing an intense boss fight. Whether you’re fending off aerial assaults or rallying defenders on the ground, the aqir forces won’t stand a chance against the champions of Azeroth.
Each invasion has six types of scenarios, three combat-focused and three non-combat-focused, with eight possible affixes to go with the combat scenarios. Champions who band together will be rewarded for completing as many objectives as they can before the ten-minute window closes.
Affixes
- Void Protection: Chance for an Aqir Voidweaver to appear, creating a protective barrier around all other aqir.
- Aqir Burrower: Several aqir aggressively burrow through the area. They will knock anyone into the sky if they get close.
- Void Sphere: Void Spheres move around the area to try to trap anyone within them.
- Astalor's Anguish: Astalor's experiments continue. He has sent his Anguish Crystals to help, which will cause damage to the aqir and any adventurers caught in their blast.
- Swarms!: All aqir enemies are replaced with swarms of smaller aqir.
- Aqir Elites: All aqir enemies are replaced with fewer but more powerful aqir.
- Void Infestation: Some aqir are infested with the void and will explode after a few seconds in combat, dealing damage to players and infecting other aqir.
- Web Weavers: Chance for an Aqir Webweaver to spawn in. If their channel is not interrupted, they will cover a player in webs.
Unleash New Power with Ascendant Venomstones
Following the launch of the 12.1.5 content update, Ascendant Voidcores will return as Ascendant Venomstones, allowing players to push their power to new heights.
To gather Ascendant Venomstones, chat with Orin Straylight near the Catalyst in Silvermoon City to start the quest "Ancient Depths, Ancient Venom." Once this quest is completed and Orin has had time to do his research, he will empower players to acquire Ascendant Venomstones that will drop from every Heroic or Mythic raid boss, Mythic+ Keystone dungeons +10 and above, Tier 11 Bountiful Delves, and Nightmare Prey Hunt Champion gear chests.
When you've collected 10 Ascendant Venomstones, use them to boost the item level of a fully upgraded Season 2 Hero, Mythic, or highest-quality Tidal Crafted weapon, trinket, or necklace.
Join the PTR to experience a new one-boss raid, continue the story, explore Labyrinths, battle back outdoor invasions, and help shape the adventures still to come with your feedback on the
official forums.
