The most anticipated ones may be Scourge Invasion, reworked Naxxramas Raid, and the new Karazhan Crypts dungeon, which will give players a better gaming experience. In order to facilitate your exploration in Phase 7 when it is released in a few days, this guide will give some overviews of the entire Phase 7 and give specific introductions to the game content that you can look forward to. However, it is worth noting that this guide is based on the previous PTR summary and does not represent the final result. Everything is subject to the latest information. Phase 7 Overview First of all, WoW Classic Season of Discovery has a dual focus in Phase 7, and they have a very interesting connection: First, Scourge Invasion enters the game, where you need to destroy the floating necropolis Naxxramas. Then there are problems in Karazhan Crypts, and Legendary staff Atiesh, Greatstaff of Guardian Atiesh, Greatstaff of Guardian is asking you to help them recover. You will find that you will be very busy in this phase of WoW Classic SOD, because you have to deal with various things, such as campaigns and raids. But what will not change is that it is absolutely necessary to make sure you have a sufficient stock of SOD Gold, which you can farm in many activities. Main Key Features In World of Warcraft Classic SOD, no matter which phase you are in, you should first understand the main key features of this phase, so that you can clearly understand what specific changes and improvements are made in this phase compared to the previous phase. Here are some of the key features in Phase 7, but this is not complete and may be expanded as more content is announced. Naxxramas Raid: Underwent a huge overhaul, including updated Tier Sets and gear. Dungeon: Added a new dungeon called Karazhan Crypts. Scourge Invasion: Infected by excitement. Reputation Rewards: Players can get new rewards from Argent Dawn faction. Release Date As we just mentioned, WoW Classic SOD Phase 7 is expected to launch on January 28, when Scourge Invasions and Karazhan Crypts Dungeon are both introduced to the game; and Naxxramas Raid will enter the game a week later, on February 6 at 1 pm PST. Scourge Invasion Scourge Invasion has always been considered a historical event in WoW, whether in the original, Wrath, or WoW Classic. However, the invasion in SOD Phase 7 is a bit different. You will fight back Scourge in many zones and major cities, and some dungeons will be infected. Below are the names of the dungeons affected in specific zones, and you can explore them in a targeted manner according to your needs. Eastern Plaguelands - Dire Maul Azshara - Razorfen Downs Blasted Lands - Scarlet Monastery Burning Steppes - Scholomance Tanaris - Shadowfang Keep Winterspring - Stratholme To fight Scourge in these locations, first you need to reach level 60, then go to Argent Recruiter in the main city and accept Light’s Hope Chapel quest from him. In this quest, you will be sent to investigate the presence of Scourge and fight against rare undead enemies in the zones and dungeons above. You will get many useful items and Necrotic Runes during your exploration, which you can use to obtain rewards from Commander Thomas Helleran in Light’s Hope Chapel. Among the rewards he offers here, the most noteworthy ones are Blessed Wizard Oil, Consecrated Sharpening Stone, and various potions that can be used for healing and increasing mana, all of which will make you more powerful in the fight against Scourge. After you clear each zone of Scourge, you’ll gain a Soul Revival buff that lasts 30 minutes, increasing your damage of all types by 10% during that time. You can use the portal to start fighting Scourge immediately in the next zone, so you don’t waste the buff. After you win 150 battles, you can return to Light’s Hope Chapel or Argent Dawn reps in your city to claim Lesser Mark of the Dawn, Mark of the Dawn, or Greater Mark of the Dawn, depending on your level. They both increase your Stamina by 30 and last for 1 hour, but can only be stacked up to three times each. Naxxramas Raid In Naxxramas Raid remake of WOW Classic SOD Phase 7, a scaling difficult system will be used. You can choose to empower different wings of the raid to increase the difficulty. Generally, the health and damage of the bosses in the raid will be greatly increased. But at the same time, your rewards in the raid will also increase. It should be noted that the increase is the number of rewards, not the quality. In addition, completing the empowered raid will also get Redesigned Tier 3 Raid Sets, some cosmetic rewards, some new gear, and some updated gear. The loot worth paying attention to here is Sanctified gear, which will give you some power when you upgrade the new Aspirant’s Seal of the Dawn. The specific rewards awarded by the raid may be displayed in the game after the new phase is opened, so you can look forward to it. Not only that, the battle of Naxxramas Raid has also been adjusted to allow 20 players to enter the exploration, but a maximum of 40 players are allowed to enter. This may reduce the combat pressure on individual players, and the cooperation and combat capabilities between players will need to be strengthened. Karazhan Crypts Dungeon Since Karazhan Crypts Dungeon was announced at Blizzcon 2023, this Season of Discovery exclusive dungeon has been highly anticipated by many players. In Phase 7, this dungeon will provide you with new loot, new quests, and more. As far as we know, this five-player dungeon is expected to be released at the same time as Phase 7, and it also requires your character level to be 60 or above to enter. You can start Karazhan Crypts Attunement Chain by claiming it at Lights Hope Chapel in Eastern Plaguelands. After you unlock this dungeon, Alliance players can fly to Darkshire and then walk east until they find Deadwind Pass. Horde players need to fly to Stonard first, then walk west until they reach Deadwind Pass. There is no specific information on where the entrance to the dungeon is in Deadwind Pass, and we will continue to pay attention. Karazhan Crypts Dungeon is designed to challenge those well-equipped players, and introduces a darkness mechanic that requires players to stay in the light as a team. Overall, this is a dungeon that is worth exploring. The above is the new game content you will experience in WOW Classic SOD Phase 7. You may need to explore it in person after January 28 and February 6. I hope this new phase can bring you a different game atmosphere and feeling. By the way, if you are experiencing slow progress in the game due to a shortage of gold during your exploration of the new stage, you can try participating in Giveaway channel in iGMeet Discord, which will provide you with some gold giveaways. I wish you a happy exploration!

The fourth stage of the exploration season is now online, and the level cap of the fourth stage is known to be level 60. So how should we upgrade from level 50 to level 60? There are many different things to do, and I also want to share some tips and tricks with you in this guide. This guide will work all the way to the highest level, and it’s very easy to follow, and it takes about 1 minute to set everything up. It will automatically detect the profession you are playing, and it will also guide you through the best route to collect runes when you level up, and there will be numbers on your map, and a lot of different things to illustrate, and it will also guide you through the best route to reach level 60. But remember to use your Cozy Sleeping Bag when the cooldown is over, because this will increase your experience value by 3% for 2 hours. Level Up Through Dungeons One thing you can do is to level up through dungeons. The first dungeon is Blackrock Depths. As an Alliance player goes to Dunbar Row, in Careers section, you will find an NPC that will give you the first quest. Then head to Burning Steppes. There will also be quite a few quests there, and you will get a lot of extra experience and SOD Gold, and even items, one of which will have you go and kill Master, this NPC or this Elite can be found in front of dungeon entrance portal. So be sure to keep an eye out for this as your group is heading into the dungeon. As a Hardcore player, you can also pick up quite a few quests there. This location has a keyer. You can change your hearthstone to this location. When you have completed all the different quests, go back with your hearthstone. Both factions can also pick up quests and Burning Steppes. You can use your Hearthstone to go back to both factions, or you can pick up a quest and Burning Steppes, as this NPC is neutral. Another neutral NPC can be found when you enter a dungeon, pick up Attunement to the Core quest, which is required to coordinate Molten Core. By doing this, you will also gain experience and accomplish different things. Explore Lower Blackrock Spire Next, you can hit Lower Blackrock Spire, which is the same location as Blackrock Depths, or very close. At this tower you can pick up different dungeon quests, which have hidden quests. If you are not an experienced player, talk to this NPC and listen to the story, and you will get an item. If you head to Burning Steppes, there will be NPCs there that you can talk to get different quests. These quests require you to complete dungeon as a party of five, without converting them to a raiding group. As a Hardcore player, you cannot take this quest. The quest will tell you to go back to Burning Steppes, which will take you to the quest chain. Once you complete the quest, you will get an amazing Trinket as a reward. Hardcore Players’ Quest Journey Another important thing is when you level up as a Hardcore player, by going to this camp in Western Plaguelands, after picking up these quests. You can also go to the Eastern Plaguelands, where you can pick up other quests. These are neutral NPCs and are also quests right in front of the dungeon entrance. If you think this is too hard, then you can also do Stratholme here, where you can get many items. In fact, there will be many quests here, and at this point you are also getting closer and closer to level 60. If you still feel that you are not strong enough to complete Upper Blackrock Spire, then you can do Dio, for example, because in Season of Discovery Phase 4, every dungeon will be open. If you decide to go to Upper Blackrock Spire, then as an Alliance player, you must go to a certain city to pick up this pre-quest, and the quest will tell you to go to Burning Steppes. If you have already gone to Lower Blackrock Spire and got the quest letter, remember to start the quest as well, in case you gave up on it before as a Hardcore player. Next, you have to go to Badlands, where you can complete a quest, and you can also pick up another quest from this dungeon. The fastest way to level up is definitely to do quests, and you can also level up a little slower, but make a lot of money at the same time. Nevertheless, I hope you enjoy exploring Season of Discovery Phase 4 and your journey to level 60.

World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery has just entered Phase 4. In this phase, your character’s level cap is now 60, and there are a number of other additions and fixes. The unique thing about this version of WoW is that you can use something called runes to improve your character’s skills or talents, and even add some new abilities to complement your own unique build. These runes have been available since Phase 1, and this guide is designed for characters under level 25, so they are perfect for when you want to level up quickly. Although many rune names will be different as the game changes, it doesn’t matter. Ice Lance For Level 2 Mage Effect: Deals Frost damage to the primary target and triple damage to targets already frozen. This rune was originally created to encourage players to choose Ice Mage, but later players considered Ice Mage to be the best upgrade option since Vanilla Classic. Combined with the early glove enchantment you get in the game, this rune’s spell power is greatly increased and provides you with better damage output. To obtain this rune, you need to perform a quest as a Mage trainer. Kill a local until it drops a Spell Note. This will provide you with the simple but effective Frost spell, which is also an excellent complement to the other late-game rune Enlightment. Enlightment Rune is a Mage’s chest piece, which allows you to increase your spell damage and help you restore mana. In the spirit of Mage lore, you need to study, decipher, and decode the runes for this class. In addition, you need to have Arcane Intellect buff activated to learn this spell. Explosive Shot For Level 5 Hunter Effect: An explosive charge that deals increased fire damage to the primary target and enemy targets within 8 yards. Glove enchantments provide a very useful AOE effect, and also increase your character’s initial attack damage. Explosive Shot is the second glove enchantment you can find, the other being Chimera Shot, which relies more on poison and sustained damage. You can get this precious Explosive Shot by killing four different beasts in starring areas in Durotar, Dun Morugh, Teldrssil, or Mulgore. Between these two runes, your choice may lead to different builds for the Hunter. Hunters can not choose other classes in Season of Discovery, but can choose what kind of DPS warrior they want to be to complete the battle. Victory Rush For Level 2 Warrior Effect: Instantly attack your target. Killing an enemy that provides XP or Honor within the next 20 seconds will heal you for 30% of your maximum health. Victory Rush is very similar to Charge ability you had before and is also an important part of the warrior toolbox. However, this rune has been improved to help you restore a little health, removing the previous ability to generate Rage. As we all know, Warriors have no self-healing spells. And at low levels, there are very few potions that can give Warriors buffs and health, not to mention the ability to cook special food. If you spend SOD Gold to exchange for these items, it is very uneconomical, because when you are at a low level, please save every gold and don’t squander it. So, anything that can give Warriors an advantage in both initial attack and effective health recovery is very good. Fortunately, Warriors can get Victory Rush very early in the game. It can perfectly match the tank or DPS role currently available to Warriors. So, no matter which build you choose, it is your best choice. Quick Draw For Level 8 Rogue Effect: Quickly fires long-range shots at enemies, slowing their movement speed by 50% and granting 1 combo point. Rogues can also be tanks in Season of Discovery, which is something many Warcraft fans didn’t expect. Quick Draw can help you better manage the battlefield by dragging enemies and slowing their movement speed at lower levels. At higher levels, you can use it to upgrade your tank character. To get Quick Draw, you need to use Pick Pocket skill to find a treasure map fragment that reveals the location of the rune. This may take a lot of time, but trust me, it’s definitely worth it. DPS Rogues in the game can use Quick Draw to gain continuous combo points and unleash additional special attacks. This passive enchant will parasitize on Rogue’s chest piece, so it doesn’t take up open space on your action bar, which is also a benefit. Haunt For Level 2 Warlock Effect: AOE effect that deals 400 initial damage, increases all other Shadow damage by 20%, and heals Warlock’s health. Haunt is one of the best runes for Warlocks, whether you’re a DPS or tank, and no matter how low you are. It gives you a deadly DOT spell in your early levels and also restores your health upon death. You can get Haunt by completing one quest in Stolen Power or Lost Rune, depending on your race and faction. If you combine Haunt with a skill, such as Life Tap, Warlocks don’t need to replenish energy or health constantly. This has made some Warlocks very satisfied, and they can even be tanks now, and you can often see them in some dungeons. According to the rules of the game, the more damage a Warlock deals to the target, the more health it restores. This also makes Haunt one of the most basic runes in a Warlock Tank build. In combat, you can use Haunt on multiple targets and time their downfalls precisely so that you can restore as much health as possible to the tank and give the healer time to recharge. The above are some of the best runes that can help you level up quickly in WoW Classic SoD Phase 4. I hope you can have fun exploring Phase 4 and reach level 60 smoothly.

Some time ago, World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery launched its Phase 4, in which Azuregos received a slight makeover. In Phase 4, Azuregos no longer appears in Azshara along with Lord Kazzak from Blasted Lands, but you can find him in the full Raid group in the new dungeon area of ​​the zone. Compared to other bosses, defeating Azuregos is relatively simple, as it does not have a one-shot mechanic that cannot be dispelled. However, you must not take it lightly, and you still need to follow this guide to learn some strategies for defeating Azuregos and understand his location. It will also introduce what loot you will get after defeating Azuregos. Come and check it out! Azuregos Location To find Azuregos, you and your raid group should first go to the southern center of the zone - Azshara. When you or your group arrive here, you will see a road heading northeast. Follow this road until you are directly above the central mountain range in the area. At the top of the mountain, turn east carefully without falling off the cliff, then continue southeast to Azuregos. For Alliance players, head directly to Talrendis Point southwest of Azshara. Then head northeast at the fork in the road. Be careful not to head southeast too early to find Azuregos, as there will be a Horde encampment in the mountain that will block your progress. For Horde players, head directly to Splintertree Post in Ashenvale, then follow the road east to Azshara. Again, be careful of Alliance NPCs at Talrendis Point, which you can fight or bypass. Then continue northeast until you see a turning point and reach Azuregos. Once you reach Azuregos, you will see a dungeon portal in this location. This does not require any actions or coordination to unlock. If you can’t find the portal, you can look for a set of pillars where the portal will be, surrounded by crystals. Once you enter the portal, mount your mount, and you and your group can explore the area. Of course, your ultimate goal is to find and defeat Azuregos. How To Defeat Azuregos? Azuregos is a raid boss in World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery Phase 4, so he has a variety of abilities that can make the fight a bit complicated. But don’t worry, you only need to focus on the most important ones. Before you start the fight, you need to do some preparation. Drinking Frost Protection Potion will help you mitigate damage and let your tank build up Threat for a few seconds before you can rush into the fight. But during the fight, you also need to pay attention to three of his mechanics. Its Teleport ability will teleport everyone on your team to Azuregos and reset your aggro. Once this happens, your team’s DPS and healers must keep Tank safe and ensure that it can build up aggro again. This allows your other classes to take other actions. For Casters and Mana-users, you should pay close attention to Azuregos’ Manastorm AOE ability. Because this ability will quickly deplete your mana, make sure you have a safe mana range. If Azuregos also has Magic Reflection active, don’t fight him head-on, and don’t waste your mana here. As for melee players, you just need to be careful to stay behind the boss, slightly to the left or right, but mostly on the side of Azuregos. This way you can avoid being hurt by Azuregos’ Frost Breath frontal cone and his Cleave attack. As I just said, be sure to keep your Tank aggro high, and for each class you need to choose the most suitable strategy, so that this boss battle is relatively simple. Here I need to remind you that during the battle, if someone dies, Azuregos will not restore a lot of health. Or it will become unbearable after three minutes, just like Lord Kazzak. Azuregos’s Loot In Phase 4, after you defeat Azuregos, you will get 11 rewards and a bunch of SOD Gold. They will drop from Azuregos as loot at different stages of the battle. Most of these items are for different classes, but are more useful for caster and ranged classes. For example, Mature Blue Dragon Sinew gives you a quiver with lots of arrows, and Mage’s Cold Snap wand gives you super high damage. But melee players don’t have to worry too much. You can find BiS cloaks and Puissant Capes suitable for many classes. In addition, you can also find an excellent two-handed sword called Typhoon. The loot will scale with the size of your group, so if you only use 20 players to fight Azuregos, you will encounter less competition in terms of loot distribution. But there are two sides to every coin, so your fight will become a little more difficult. In the World of Warcraft Classic Season of Discovery Phase 4, all World Bosses will reset twice each week. So if you don’t get the loot you want in a group of 40 people, you can try again. That’s all you need to know before fighting Azuregos in WOW Classic SOD Phase 4. I hope this guide can be seen by you and helpful before you fight. Have fun playing on Phase 4!
