Developer Blizzard Entertainment kicked off the second phase of the Season of Discovery, a new fresh take on the Classic WoW. Adventurers can now level from 25 to 40, earn up to 31 additional talent points, take on the challenge of Gnomeregan as a new raid dungeon, discover new runes and abilities, and more. If you were looking for a reason to return to Azeroth, you’d be hard pressed to find a better one.
When it comes to the Gnomeregan Raid Dungeon, for the start of the new phase there are going to be two lockouts on the normal weekly lockout timer. The first reset will occur on February 13 with the second occurring on February 20 during regularly scheduled maintenance. Players will also be able to undertake a new profession quest chain leading to new materials players can use to craft more powerful items.
WOW CLASSIC – SEASON OF DISCOVERY PHASE 2 INCLUDES:
- New Gnomeregan Raid Dungeon. Gnomeregan will be a 10-player raid dungeon consisting of six bosses–which includes one additional new boss. Requires Level 40. The dungeon will also introduce a new world buff.
- Season of Discovery Phase 2 will also have new skill books added as a part of 5-player dungeon drops from various creatures. These quality-of-life improvements will not take a rune slot and help to address things such as short Aura durations for Paladin Blessings, totem control for Shaman, and more.
- Rune Ability updates for many classes.
- PvP updates. Phase 2 introduces a new PvP event called “The Blood Moon.” Back to Stranglethorn Valley! Additional adjustments are coming to matchmaking and to Ashenvale. The weekly quest world buff will not apply to players after level 39.
- Two new faction-agnostic mounts.
- Profession updates. Players will be able to discover approximately twenty new recipes across all non-gather professions.
