WoW Cataclysm Classic: What Earth-Shaking Changes Will Druids Bring?

With the launch of World of Warcraft: Cataclysm Classic Phase 4, Hour of Twilight, today, the epic battle against Deathwing finally reaches its climax. This phase not only includes three new Heroic Dungeons, Dragon Soul Raid, but also a new Rogues’ legendary weapon quest line. Players, prepare your best armor and weapons to deal with the raging attacks of Deathwing! Phase 4, Hour of Twilight, is the culmination of Cataclysm story. Players will travel through the rifts of time, rewrite history, and face the madness of the corrupted black dragon king. Here are the key contents and schedule. Three Heroic Dungeons The three Heroic Dungeons can bring players WOW Cataclysm Classic Gold, equipment and other rich rewards. It can be foreseen that this will be one of the main game contents for players in WOW Cataclysm for some time to come: End Time Players explore the end of the world after the victory of Deathwing, when the leaders of Azeroth were corrupted and lived in destroyed dragon shrines. This and the dungeon will drop level 378 equipment items, so the difficulty is extremely high, and the player’s equipment level is best above 353. Well Of Eternity Players will travel to the capital of the night elves 10,000 years ago to help Illidan resist Burning Legion. Azshara, the queen of the night elves, tries to invite Burning Legion to come. Players will temporarily transform into night elves in the dungeon to organize Azshara’s actions. Hour Of Twilight Players need to escort Thrall to Wyrmrest Temple with Dragon Soul, and eventually join the blue, bronze, green and red dragon armies. During this period, players need to resist the attack of Twilight’s Hammer. Thrall will fight alongside you and provide you with buffs. The new Heroic Raid has high level and gear requirements, so don’t try it lightly until you are ready. You need to use WOW Cataclysm Classic Gold to upgrade your armor and weapons to level 353 or above, and prepare supplies before challenging. Dragon Soul Raid Dragon Soul Raid event will be unlocked on February 20. Players need to protect Thrall and other guardians, lead them through Wyrmrest Temple, and prevent Deathwing from destroying everything. Dragon Soul Raid has three difficulty levels and two scales. The recommended player equipment item level is: LFR Difficulty: 384-390. Normal Difficulty: 397-403. Heroic Difficulty: 410-416. Drops: Experiment 12-B drops from Ultraxion in Normal and Heroic difficulty. Madness of Deathwing will definitely drop Life-Binder’s Handmaiden. Reins of the Blazing Drake is a rare drop from Madness of Deathwing and only drops in Normal Difficulty and Heroic Difficulty. Players can obtain Legendary Fangs of the Father daggers in Normal Difficulty and Heroic Difficulty. This equipment is only available to Rogues. Fangs of the Father is the only pair of legendary equipment that is limited to a class so far. Rogue players must not miss it. To obtain these two daggers, you must complete Fangs of the Father quest. Fangs of the Father You don’t have to be a Rogue to participate in this quest. This is an epic quest line. It is well worth doing. Players need to work with Wrathion to clean up the corrupt remnants of Black Dragonflight. Boss Battle The boss battle of Dragon Soul Raid can bring huge benefits to all members, but it is also the most difficult challenge! Players must follow the team’s command to resist the boss, otherwise your mistakes may lead to the destruction of the entire team! After successfully defeating the boss, you can participate in the distribution of the boss’s equipment and gold. Players will encounter the following bosses in Dragon Soul Raid: Morchok: Morchok is an elemental creature controlled by Deathwing. It was once a guardian, and now it believes that only when Azeroth is completely destroyed can it gain a moment of peace. Warlord Zon’ozz: Long, long ago, Warlord Zon’ozz led his army to war against C’Thun and Yogg-Saron. Thousands of years later, he is still loyal to Old God N’Zoth. Deathwing released Warlord Zon’ozz. Yor’sahj the Unsleeping: Yor’sahj the Unsleeping provides Deathwing with a way to release more faceless ones from the underground prison, making the faceless ones endless. Hagara the Stormbinder: One of the first Forsaken students to learn arcane magic, Hagara showed incredible promise until she was ensnared and twisted by Al’Akir the Wind Lord. Now devoted to Twilight’s Hammer, Hagara revels in torturing others. Ultraxion: More of an abomination of dark energy than a dragon, Ultraxion is the only twilight dragon recognized by Deathwing, and due to his hubris, Ultraxion vowed to destroy Wyrmrest Temple in order to serve his master. Warmaster Blackhorn: Riding on the few dozen twilight dragons left are the last remnants of Twilight’s Hammer’s army: Deathwing’s personal guard of elite dragonriders. Led by Warmaster Blackhorn, they fight for their master and are determined to protect him. Spine of Deathwing: When Deathwing first harnessed the power of Dragon Soul against the other legions, the overwhelming force nearly destroyed him. But he did not give up this weapon, but fused adamantium plates with his scales to connect his body. Later, because these plates were strengthened by the elements, this became the only weakness of Deathwing’s fatal existence. Madness of Deathwing: This horrible creature is a twisted hatred with unfathomable power. No one can stop it. His mind and soul have been corrupted and devoured by Old God masters. Season 11 PVP Season 11 PVP will be launched on February 25th. Tol Barad will add a new world boss Alizabal, and support 10/25 player mode. Firelands Nerf: All bosses have their health and damage reduced by 30%. Players can turn off this effect by talking to General Taldris Moonfall. The above is the content that will be opened in WOW Cataclysm Classic Phase 4. WOW Cataclysm Classic Phase 4 has a lot of content and will be open for a long time. Players can enjoy the various dungeons and activities that are open in the next period.

Transmogs are a very popular feature in World of Warcraft, perfect for players who play on retail or Cataclysm-era servers. This feature allows each character to have more unique and creative customization options. In the minds of players, collecting different types of gear for transmog has become very important, even more than performing missions or raids in the game! What I need to remind you here is that transmog was added in Cataclysm expansion, so you don’t have to start exploring from scratch. You can use some of the equipment or weapons you have already acquired to transmog when expansion is released. Similarly, in WOW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2 Rise of the Zandalari, which will be released on July 30 as the second phase of the entire expansion, you can also use transmog. Any items you’ve previously acquired through quests, crafting, or even drops will appear in your transmog directory. Transmog sets available to each character are determined by their classes. For example, casters can only use cloth transmogs, while Paladins or Warriors can use plate and mail gear. This guide will detail the best transmogs you can use in the game, so you can be ready before Phase 2 arrives! Circle Of Flame Location: Dropped by Lord Incendium Ambassador Flamelash in Blackrock Depths This is a mid-level item, but the drop rate for this item is only a measly 2%, which makes it one of the most sought-after items in the game. It’s not without a replacement though, you can get a Crown of Desolation from Ragnaros in Molten Core raid to replace it. However, both items are very difficult to obtain and require some effort on your part. How To Find Ambassador Flamelash? Before explaining how to find the boss that drops Circle of Flame, I need to remind you that there is a level scaling function in Retail WoW, so if you want to get this item, your dungeon must be scaled to match your character. The same level, and you also need to team up with others to complete this exploration. The following steps are for Cataclysm because there is no level scaling, so you can complete them independently with a high-level character. Go to Blackrock Depths. This is one of many instances in the infamous Blackrock Mountain, and is usually the first place players visit, as it is a level 40-45 dungeon. Turn left at the entrance, go through the gate, and enter the door on the right that leads directly to West Garrison. Then find Grim Guzzler. This is the hottest tavern in Azeroth. Go through the back door, stay on the left, go up the first staircase, and turn right. Defeat Flamelash. Ambassador is alone in a large room filled with lava, but during the battle, several small fire elementals will join the battle and help him. He probably won’t drop Circle of Flame on the first try, so be prepared to do this a few times. If you have run this dungeon before and have the keys to get into West Garrison, you can complete the steps above. If you haven’t been to Blackrock Depths before, you can still go this route, but you’ll need a high-level character or a powerful class. Black Embersilk Gown Location: Get the recipe from the sewing trainer This item is one of the new decorative clothing added in Cataclysm, and you need to reach level 500 in the Tailoring skill to craft it. In addition, you need to use 8 bolts of Embersilk to craft it, so if you are currently using another class, you can use WOW Cataclysm Classic Gold to obtain it at Auction House or commission someone else to make it. But in fact, making Black Embersilk Gown is not that easy. Although this item is just for decoration, it requires a lot of expensive and rare materials, including Volatile Fire dropped by specific high-level enemies in Mount Hyjal, and Chaos Orbs dropped by the final boss of heroic-level dungeons, which are very difficult to obtain. It is also necessary to remind you that LFG function in Cataclysm will only show the option for Heroics when your total gear score is 329 or above, so you should always pay attention to your gear situation. Also, Chaos Orbs don’t drop in regular dungeons, you need to look for higher-level dungeons. Robe Of The Malefic Location: In the hands of Keeper of Lost Artifacts Tydormu in Scale of Sands Every caster in the current game wants this Robe Of The Malefic. Also known as Hood of The Malefic, it has a pair of long horns and a set of giant bat wings. The only way to get this set is to enter Mount Hyjal raid and compete with Archimonde when he drops Forgotten Conqueror’s Chestguard. Once you win the dice, you can trade it with Tydormu. How To Find Tydormu? The vendors who trade these items are usually well hidden, and so is Tydormu. Before trading, you need to prepare the tokens it needs in case the trade fails. You can go to Caverns Of Time. Fly through the entrance to Sanctuary. It’s the second Sanctuary to the right from where the dragon dropped in Cataclysm expansion.  Join Mount Hyjal Raid. You must be level 65 or above to join the raid and have Classic WoW installed.  And speak to Tydormu. Find him wandering the “foyer” of Mount Hyjal raid. This raid has multiple portals leading to different stages, making it one of the most complex and difficult 40-player raids in WoW. These are the best transmogs you can choose from in WoW Cataclysm Classic. Hopefully, you can use them to your advantage in WoW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2 Rise of the Zandalari! Have fun exploring!

Recently, the developers finally announced the release date of WoW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2 and some very interesting changes that will come with it. Phase 2 will launch on July 30, 2024, and players will have the opportunity to tackle some familiar, troll-filled raids in a whole new way. Although the full details of Phase 2 update have not been announced so far, it is expected that players will not have to wait too long to challenge the powerful Troll hordes on Classic Era Server. In this guide, we will talk about some of the new content that we know so far about what will be introduced in Phase 2. Without further ado, let’s get straight to it! Troll Empires Troll Empires are the oldest civilizations in Azeroth. They have long been divided, but Zandalari tribe has now decided to bring all Empires together. In Rise of the Zandalari, we’ll learn more about the different Troll tribes and see what United Empires will eventually look like. Reworked Troll-Themed Raids As we learn more about the unity of Troll tribes, we’ve learned that they’ve reclaimed former Troll Strongholds: Zul’Gurub and Zul’aman. As we all know, WoW Cataclysm Phase 1 introduced three familiar raids, and Phase 2 will bring similar content. Phase 2 will bring these two reworked Troll-themed raids to the open world in a way that players have never experienced before. Now, they’ve received a new update, including improved bosses, loot, and mounts. If you want to have a better chance of winning all encounters and winning these loot, it’s crucial to invest more WoW Cataclysm Classic Gold in your character build to fully upgrade it. In Phase 2 of WoW Cataclysm Classic, both Zul’Gurub and Zul’aman will become level 85 Heroic Dungeons that players can tackle. Arguably one of the most interesting 10-player raids in World of WarCraft history, Zul’aman was first introduced in Burning Crusade expansion and is the only way to unlock Amani War Bear Mount. Unfortunately, this feature is not available to players on Classic Era servers. Zul’aman But in Cataclysm Phase 2, Zul’aman will be brought back to life with new mechanics and plenty of challenges, giving players the following bosses to fight: Akil’zon Nalorakk Jan’alai Halazzi Hex Lord Malacrass Daakara Zul’Gurub Zul’Gurub was one of the earlier raids in World of WarCraft Vanilla, and it’s making a return in WoW Cataclysm Classic as a new addition to Phase 2. However, this Heroic Dungeon also won’t work the same way as players remember the original raid. In the new Heroic, players can fight the following bosses: Required Bosses: High Priest Venoxis Broodlord Mandokir High Priestess Kilnara Zanzil Jin’do the Godbreaker Optional Bosses: Gri’lek Renataki Hazza’rah Wushoolay One of the optional bosses can be summoned by players with a high enough Archaeology, a skill that was added in WoW Cataclysm Classic expansion. Additionally, after defeating the supreme boss, you’ll unlock a treasure map that you can take and unlock the powerful Account Bound Ring, which has a gem so big you can see it when you wear it! Rare Mounts Players can also unlock rare mounts in WoW Cataclysm Phase 2. Of course, this isn’t the original either, but the mounts available in Cataclysm’s Heroic Dungeon. Epic mounts in Zul’Gurub include Swift Zulian Panther and Armored Razzashi Raptor. Amani War Bear Mount unlocks if you defeat the first four bosses of Zul’aman before time runs out. Epic Drop Rate Increases If you want to try out the content in WoW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2, you’ll need items at item level 346. You’ll find these two new Heroic Dungeons in a separate Heroic difficulty tier in Dungeon Finder, meaning they’re harder than the current Cataclysm Heroic Dungeons. Of course, with that comes better rewards, too, with item level 353 Epic drops in nearly every gear slot. The big takeaway, though, is that previously harder-to-find gear slots like Bracers, Helmets, Shoulders, Gun, and Wands are also seeing their Epic drop rates increased. That’s pretty exciting! Dungeon Finder Update In addition, Cataclysm Phase 2 brings an update to the existing LFD or Dungeon Finder Tool called Call to Arms. This update allows players to obtain Satchel of Exotic Mysteries while queuing for underrepresented roles in Dungeon Finder. When the system finds that a character is underrepresented in the queue, it will highlight that character with a Call to Arms icon in Dungeon Finder UI. To obtain these rewards, you must solo queue and must complete the dungeon by killing the ultimate boss. While we don’t have any officially confirmed rewards yet, based on our experience with Phase 1, we’re guessing that when Rise of the Zandalari first launches, Satchel of Exotic Mysteries may include the following: Gold Rare Gems Flasks/Potions Non-Combat Pets Mounts (Dungeon Drops Only) Most of the time, Call to Arms will probably be for Tanks or Healers, but may occasionally supplement DPS players. This update is a great incentive for players willing to fill underrepresented roles and help shorten queue times for those who don’t. That’s all we know about the new changes coming to Phase 2 of WoW Cataclysm. Get ready as soon as possible and let’s start a new adventure together!

In WoW Cataclysm Classic, the Death Knight stands out as one of the most powerful classes. This class has become absolute powerhouses in the open world. The combination of self-healing, active mitigation, and AoE damage makes them unrivaled in solo dungeon leveling. So in this guide, I'll introduce you to a potent Death Knight build and various methods designed to reach Level 85 swiftly. Death Knight Leveling Build The ultimate choice for this purpose is the Gripstrike build, which boasts exceptional effectiveness for several reasons. Firstly, Unholy Command resets your death grip cooldown every time you eliminate an enemy. Secondly, Butchery grants you 20 runic power with each kill. Thirdly, Unholy Presence reduces your global cooldown to half a second and enhances your movement speed by 15%. Lastly, having 2 Oracle Talisman of Ablution trinkets, obtainable from achieving the Exalted status with the Oracles, completes the setup. If you don't possess sufficient WoW Cataclysm Classic Gold to get the Oracle Talisman of Ablution, then doing the same build with normal trinkets will be just fine. It'll just be slightly slower, and you may find yourself sometimes with empty global if you have Death Grip as well. Remember to have a cancelaura macro for the trinket tied to your flying mount while running this build. In addition to those 4 key acquisitions, it's highly recommended to wield a Two-Handed Sword, acquiring Runic Power Mastery for an extra 30 runic power. Alongside these talents and glyphs, Glyph of Frost Strike, Dark Succor, and Death Grip will be pivotal in enabling this build. As far as rotations go, you can start by putting up diseases and then just grip and Frost Strike until your runic power is depleted. Then obliterate until the target is dead. Once you get higher up in levels, you can start the fight with a Howling Blast to get Frost Fever on the target, but I never recommend Plague Strike. Then, we pick up 2 points in On a Pale Horse to speed up the traveling process. Questing Let's delve into a strategy that many players gravitate towards: questing. In WoW Cataclysm Classic, questing routes are quite linear, so instead of discussing how to quest, we'll focus on the most efficient build to pick through quests. As you progress in levels, self-sustainability becomes increasingly crucial, making the Dark Succor indispensable. Since Frost Strikes constitute the bulk of your leveling rotation, investing a Frost and Unholy rune into a Death Strike to heal yourself for 20% proves immensely valuable. Prioritize reforging everything into Mastery while also focusing on Hit as a secondary stat. This configuration ensures that every time you dispatch an enemy, you'll have a full runic power bar and a ready grip, enabling you to effortlessly dispatch foes. Either way, the benefit of questing to Level 85 is you'll get a bunch of reputation in order to unlock 333 and 346 item level gear right at Level 85, and you will get a bunch of gear as you get to the later levels, making obtaining that Level 329 item to queue Heroic dungeons easier. Dungeon Farming For those hesitant to rely on the open world's stability upon launch, solo dungeon farming presents a viable alternative. This strategy is most effective between levels 80 to 82, although it can be extended to Level 85, offering substantial experience gains at the expense of progress in other areas. Besides, you can have dungeon farming as a 5-man group. This strategy is worth considering only if you have a 5-man group with players you know and trust. While it grants more experience than questing, especially in areas with heavy competition, it's not as efficient as solo farming. With group dungeon farming, you won't gain any reputation unless your group decides to complete a few quests together to gain faction favor. However, reputation gains will only start once you reach Level 83 and begin tackling dungeons. The advantage is the possibility of obtaining 333 item level loot and potentially starting Heroic dungeon queues earlier as a group. Achieving Level 85 early is essential for accessing Heroic dungeons, requiring a minimum item level of 329. However, reaching Level 85 solely through dungeon farming, particularly in full ICC gear, is a daunting task best suited for alts.
