World Of Warcraft: Dragonflight – Embers of Neltharion (10.1)

Live on Public Testing Realm (PTR) beginning March 9. As players will learn in Return to the Forbidden Reach (10.0.7), the fallen Earth-warder Neltharion, infamously known as Deathwing, kept a secret laboratory deep underground below the Dragon Isles. Both the newly freed Incarnates and a rebel band of Dracthyr led by Scalecommander Sarkareth pose a threat as they fight to gain access to the lab and control over Neltharion's long-hidden secrets. Major features include:

  • NEW ZONE: Zaralek Cavern- New quests, denizens to befriend, exploration, dragon-riding updates and more await in this mysterious underground cavern.
  • NEW RAID: Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible – Aberrus is a secret laboratory hidden within Zaralek Cavern and where Neltharion not only created the Dracthyr but also succumbed to the whispers of the Old Gods. Players will face nine bosses in an effort to thwart the incarnates as well as Scalecommander Sarkareth, whose forces seek to claim the legacy of the Dracthyr. Like Season 1, normal, heroic, and mythic difficulties will release simultaneously.
  • NEW MYTHIC+ ROTATION – The remaining Dragonflight dungeons will enter the fray:
    • Brackenhide Hollow
    • Halls of Infusion
    • Uldaman: Legacy of Tyr
    • Neltharus
  • Four dungeons returning from past expansions will provide new challenges to keep the M+ rotation fresh:
    • Freehold, Battle for Azeroth
    • The Underrot, Battle for Azeroth
    • Neltharion's Lair, Legion
    • Vortex Pinnacle, Cataclysm
  • Seasonal affixes are in development and will be available for testing later in the PTR cycle.
