Heed the Call of Siren Isle Beginning December 17

Prepare to dive into mystery and mayhem with the newest content update in The War Within™— Siren Isle. Explore an enigmatic outdoor zone, procure new items and rewards for you and your alternate characters, engage in new campaign chapters—Dalaran epilogue and Lingering Shadows prologue to Undermine(d)—and more!

New Zone to Explore

As raging tempests batter against Siren Isle, set off on an expedition to face off against a weekly rotation of adversaries while unraveling baffling new mysteries surrounding the abandoned Kul Tiran Azerite mine.

It's up to you, intrepid adventurer, to discover the fate of those who once lived and worked here. Explore alongside goblin, earthen, and Arathi expedition teams to learn more about the "singing crystal" at Siren Isle's heart.

While battling through enemies new and old with daring bravado, earn a new currency—Flame-Blessed Iron—to trade for items like mounts, pets, gear, and transmogs. It can also be used to open one of three Excavation sites on the island, presenting a face-off against a formidable foe to earn unique rewards.

A powerful new ring—Cyrce's Circlet—is available by completing the Siren Isle introductory quest line—The Radiant Vault. Complete a series of quests that will teach you how to upgrade the ring over time to increase its item level and gain new powers to help you journey around Siren Isle—keep reading to learn more.

While on your adventure, earn Singing Citrines that can be socketed in Cyrce's Circlet. These Citrines can be mixed and matched to create powerful combinations, and the gems can be socketed and unsocketed as you see fit.

Earn Crackling New Wings

Add a little spark to your adventure when you collect items from around the island to help release Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren—a new electrifying storm crow mount—from its bonds.

Getting Around on Land, Sea, and Air

While flying is possible after fully upgrading Cyrce's Circlet, due to the raging Seafury Tempests, the winds of the Siren Isle make it a no-fly zone at the outset.

Master the less severe winds by completing a series of quests to upgrade the circlet, giving you the power to face all but the most punishing tempests.

To upgrade Cyrce's Circlet, a single quest unlocks weekly, and completing it offers a new power that helps you on the island while wearing the ring. Don't fret if you miss a week or two; you can complete the missed quests in the following week along with the new one.

• Week 1: Finish The Radiant Vault questline to get Cyrce's Circlet and learn how to socket and unsocket gems.
• Week 2: Complete Dipping a Toe to get Blessing of the Seadweller, which will allow you to walk on the seafloor, find treasures underwater, breathe underwater, and swim much faster in the surrounding waters of Siren Isle.
• Week 3: Complete Juicing Up and Storming Out to get Superjuiced, allowing you to activate the TR-06 Pummeler and N.U.K.U.L.A.R Target Painter while in the Seafury Tempest on the Siren Isle.
• Week 4: Complete Unleashing Her Power and earn Cyrce's Zephyr, allowing your spells and abilities to have a chance to summon Cyrce's Zephyr, which will cast every existing Singing Citrine ability over three seconds while the ring is equipped and you're on the Siren Isle.
• Week 5: Complete The Singing Bandit Catcher to gain the Thieves of the Siren power to illuminate invisible enemies attempting to steal Siren Isle's riches. They are often found trying to pilfer Flame-Blessed Iron from the strongest creatures on the isle.
• Week 6: Complete the final quest in this series—Cyrce Would Be So Proud—to earn Wings of the Siren, giving you the passive ability to control the winds, allowing you to take flight on Siren Isle.

Oh LOOK! A 3942379875498th recolor of mount/set/item thats locked behind kill 3.000+ mobs to get enough currency to buy it.

Back in my days it was considered blasphemous if you had to grind daily quest for 20-30 days to get rep......

[RobertMugabe]

This'll definitely bring me back for a week or two, but I hope we will get some more 11.1 stuff soon.

which days were those? Classic, which had numerous daily quest grinds for rep? BC, which had the Ogri'la rep grind? Wrath, which had the Sons of Hodir and Oracles/Frenzyheart? also, isn't this a weekly quest and not a daily quest?

11.1 is almost certainly dropping when the Turbulent Timeways event is over... which I think is Feb 2025

Yep. And that required 20-30 days of 2-4 daily quests. And that was considered tremendous amount.


Now its completely fine to get 60+ days of 10+ dailies to finish reputation, then 50+ rare mobs to kill in order to get the currency, then 8-9 "paragon" loot boxes which is ~10ish days of grind PER paragon loot box... etc, etc, etc....

And its been like this since... Legionish days now...

This "new era" is just a worthless treadmill with 347294293743 recolors.

[Alayea]

I remember when being a half-elf was kinda a huge deal.

I used to think these comments were stupid and unhelpful, like if you feel that way why play the game go elsewhere...

I used to, now I totally agree, I was a big mount collector, got a bucketload of rare ones, the titles, yadda yadda, but now its just so unineresting espeically with how you get them, its either a super long long quest, a super long grind or a stupidly low drop chance, I know exactly why its one or more of those 3 options, have hundreds of mounts to prove it, but when you get to a cetain point, you realise it doesn't matter, it never mattered (ofc).

But you want it to, thats why you don't 'just go play another game' I want to play this game and I want them to do better.

[Snes]

I'll be skipping this grind for sure.

[Marrakech]

Oh more pirates.

Will sit this one out.

[joxur]

They are cannibalizing retail for classic and a bunch of game modes I never intend to play. Crest change is too little, too late. I unsubbed until at least next season.

[panda040]

boring, will probably just unsub or level up alts till 11.2

[Uvania]

After 20 years of WoW this expansion has truly killed all the magic and i was a person that actually enjoyed Shadowlands...

Thank god i have some fresh classic to play right now!

[Phasma]

Why are they setting limitations on the Cross-Faction queueing? It's like offering someone really good cake and then telling them you forgot to put on the icing. Thanks, but no thanks.

[Palapop]

Can you tell me specifically which reps required that?

every single 1 since 7.0

really not that hard to see if you played the game.

that mount in Isle of Dorn? People need 4, 5, 6, 7k.... mob kills to get enough crystals for it lol

even Alani (w/e spelling) required like at least 3x less (and that was considered CRAZY grind)

[Sorrowseer]

Hhaha as another poster above said, they will skp this grind, thats what it isn't it,its not new fun content to engage with and enjoy, which they claim, its just another grind.
