As the warriors defeated Ragnaros, the Firelord, the war in Blackrock Mountain gradually subsided. However, far beyond the Dark Portal, the evil forces of Outland were stirring, brewing a terrible conspiracy.
The second phase of the Titan Reforged server's "Time" raid, "Storm Keep" and "Serpent's Temple," will officially launch on January 29th! The second phase of the Paragon Rankings, "S2 Gaze into the Abyss," will also launch on January 29th. Thunderfury and Blessed Blade of the Windseeker will also make their debut at the same time.
Gazing into the abyss amidst the storm, challenging Kael'thas and Vashj.
For too long, the cunning Outland lords Vashj and Kael'thas Sunstrider have served the traitor, Illidan Stormrage. Now, the time has come to overthrow their twisted rule.
Thunderfury, the Blessed Blade of the Windseeker, arrives.
In this phase, the highly anticipated legendary weapon, Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker, will also make its debut. *Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker, is only usable by Hunters, Paladins, Rogues, Warriors, and Death Knights.
Once Phase Two is available, players can acquire new loot to upgrade their Phase One legendary gear. To obtain these items, you'll need thorough preparation and a loyal and reliable team. Assemble your party and prepare for a brand new battle!
The second phase of the Serpentshrine Cavern and Tempest Keep dungeons will both be reforged to level 80. They are located in the easternmost part of Netherstorm in Outland and deep within Coilfang Reservoir in Zangarmarsh, respectively.
Stormhold
The Naaru once carried Tempest Keep to support Outland in its fight against the dark forces. As Outland became the front line of the Burning Crusade, the Naaru also traveled to this shattered land aboard Tempest Keep.
However, as the Naaru departed from their fortress, Prince Kael'thas and his blood elves swiftly raided Tempest Keep and seized it. M'uru, who remained at Tempest Keep, was captured by the blood elves and sent to Silvermoon City. For some unknown purpose, Kael'thas manipulated the fortress's advanced technology, using it to extract chaotic energy from the Netherstorm.
Penetrating the very core of the Crystallized Fortress, ending the corrupted madness of Kael'thas Sunstrider and his bizarre loyalists.
- Region: Voidstorm Tempest Keep
- Level: 80
- Leaders: 4 (Phoenix God of War, Voidwalker, Archmage Solarian, Kael'thas Sunstrider)
Serpent Temple
The delicate ecological balance of the Zangarmarsh has been disrupted. Unnatural phenomena are eroding and destroying the swamp's native flora and fauna. The source of the unrest lies in the ominous Coiltooth Reservoir.
Rumor has it that the owner of this mysterious building is none other than the infamous Vashj. Venture deep into Vashj's underwater lair—the Temple of the Serpents—and eradicate her and her pack of vicious beasts.
- Region: Zangarmarsh, Coiltooth Reservoir
- Level: 80
- Leaders: 6 (Unstable Hydrus, Fishzilla, Blind Leothelas, Deepwater Lord Caratheras, Morogri Tidewalker, Vashj)
New World Leader Update

Meanwhile, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the "Peak Ranking Governance and Penalty Announcement," open-world PvP battles on the leaderboard will strictly prohibit ranking manipulation through abnormal kills or other personal score-boosting behaviors.

*The rules for the Peak Ranking event will be adjusted based on more factors and circumstances, and the latest rules on the Peak Ranking page shall prevail.
