Battle for Azeroth: Visions of N’Zoth Goes Live January 14

Return to Uldum and the Vale of Eternal Blossoms to take on N’Zoth’s corruption during new Assaults, bear witness to new Horrific Visions, recruit two new Allied Races, the fox-like vulpera (Horde) and the crafty mechagnomes (Alliance), and much more.

Ny’alotha, the Waking City
Delve into where nightmares dwell in Ny’alotha, the Waking City, a 12-boss raid set in the Void-shrouded heart of the ancient Black Empire. Confront mad heralds and inscrutable horrors, and ultimately go eye-to-eyes with N’Zoth himself in a fateful battle for Azeroth’s survival.

Ny’alotha, the Sleeping City, has awakened. Under N’Zoth’s command, the armies of the Black Empire threaten to engulf the world and reshape it according to their master’s vision. Only one hope remains: using the repaired titan forges to eradicate the Corruptor once and for all. But, in order to target N’Zoth with the forges’ power, the champions of Azeroth must venture deep into the horrific realm for one final confrontation against the Old God.

Raid Unlock Schedule:
  • January 21 – Normal and Heroic Difficulties
  • January 28 – Mythic Ny’alotha, Raid Finder Wing 1 (Vision of Destiny)
  • February 11: Raid Finder Wing 2 (Halls of Devotion)
  • February 25: Raid Finder Wing 3 (Gift of Flesh)
  • March 10: Raid Finder Wing 4 (The Waking Dream)

Battle for Azeroth Season 4
Shortly after the release of the Visions of N’Zoth content update, Battle for Azeroth Season 4 will begin including a new seasonal affix in Mythic Keystone dungeons, reward updates, and a new season of PvP action.

    Ah yes, a patch that brings a single raid and nothing else with it.

    What? Don't pretend new WQs and those shitty "story" quests are new content.

    On a side note, will be skipping this patch. I encourage many others to do so because this patch is just an embarrassing spit in the face to not only we the players, but WoW's previous writers too.

    If this is your cup of tea though, then sure. Go play and enjoy it. Not telling you not to.

    At least with 8.2 we had two zones...and even with those I was done in 4 months (meaning meta achievements)

    Yup, that is me..being accused of excusing anything Blizzard does and 8.3 is shockingly underwelming at this point of the announcement.
    It's nothing for raiders too. We make our progression through once and immediately stop right after. There's no reason to farm gear from raids this expansion because the gear sucks compared to M+ and world content gear. Progression is over within a month.

    Two months for full LFR. Ugh. I get delaying it a week or two but it is stupid to have it delayed that long.

    I'll try the raid, but that's probably about it.

    This expansion has been the absolute worst so far, I can't believe they actually made it honestly. But whaddya do, at least time played metrics looks good to shareholders.

    Ah yes, a patch that brings new systems, new content and the visions and nightmares.

    What? Don't pretend boring repetitive raids are new content.

    So I can enjoy it, but can't pretend it's content? Got it. Just don't make more rules mr "raider", it's geting too complicated. ;D

    Actually it's perfect that it stretches until March because that's when both FFVIIR and Persona 5R come out.

    More world quests and invasions aren't content as they take up 15mins ever 5 days or whatever the rotation is but hopefully the visions will be non time gated and you can play them more than once a week without being capped on rewards.

    Well this thread went from 0 to full retard real quick. Every news post on MMO-C is a cockfight nowadays.

    The only difference between the 2 is one requires you to find a group, don't act like normal mode is all high and mighty

    Umm sure it's nothing for raiders.
    Who tf clears an instance once and is done lol, if world content gear is outpacing raiding gear I assume you're 'raiding' is referring to clearing LFR?

    How was their comment high and mighty?
    If someone is super keen to see out the raid and doesn't want to wait for LFR to release, then run through normal. Also very easy and easily puggable.

    Cool, my Vulpera name awaits!

    And maybe I'll be able to finish Operation Mechagon by then.

    1. Allied Race Death Knights (with Shadowlands pre-order).
    2. Vulpera and Mechagnome Allied Races

    6. New Essences and Minor Essence slot
    7. Class Changes

    That's how many more things than just one raid? I guess that'll keep you quiet, or at least that ban will.
