Patch 8.3 Visions of N’Zoth is a highly anticipated update that will be dropping on January 14th, and with it, a massive amount of content including new allied races and a new PvP season will be available.
It will also be bringing with it Ny’alotha, the Waking City. All in all, there will be four difficulty modes for the raid: Raid Finder, Normal, Heroic, and Mythic.
World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth gamers will have to wait an extra week to get started, however. The Normal and Heroic difficulty modes aren’t scheduled to release until January 21st. And then, a week after that, January 28th, Mythic difficulty will become to play.
Raid Finder, which players need a minimum level of 410, will work on a different schedule. When Mythic becomes available, so will Wing 1 for Raid Finder.
Wing 1, which is known as Vision of Destiny, features three raids bosses:
• Wrathion, the Black Emperor
• Maut
• The Prophet Skitra
Wing 2 is scheduled to launch on Raid Finder on February 11th. It is called Halls of Devotion, and in it, holds four harrowing bosses.
• Dark Inquisitor Xanesh
• Vexiona
• The Hivemind
• Ra-den the Despoiled
Gift of Flesh, or Wing 3, will come available via Raid Finder on February 25th. World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth gamers will take on three terrifying bosses:
• Shad’har the Insatiable
• Drest’agath
• Il’gynoth, Corruption Reborn
The final Wing, The Waking Dream, launches on March 10th for the Raid Finder, and it will have the two final bosses of Ny’alotha, the Waking City. They are:
• Carapace of N’Zoth
• N’Zoth, the Corruptor
Just like all new raids that drop, Ny’alotha, the Waking City will come with a plethora of different achievements to unlock and gear to grind for, as well as mounts and pets to collect.
Patch 8.3 Visions of N’Zoth will have a bunch more content, including Blackrock Depths Battle Pet dungeon, Horrific Visions, Corrupted Items, and of course, enough transmogs and toys to work towards for months!
