Greetings, players!

With Dragonflight here, it is time to access the content of Season 1. As announced in the Expansion Release post, most content will be available alongside Season 1 and released on Monday 18th, at 10:00 (server time).
In this post, we will enter details and specifics about the content that will be unlocked now. Therefore, we will avoid explaining what we've already explained before and will mainly specify the new Season 1 content that will be available. Here we go!

 

 

RAID - VAULT OF THE INCARNATES

 

This raid will finally open its doors, and all eight bosses will be available to be challenged!
Each boss will use different mechanics and will have unique complexities, making each boss encounter unique. While all of them will be available since the release of Season 1, the Mythic mode will not be implemented until mid-late January, giving players about one month to conquer the entire raid on the other difficult modes.

The bosses on the raid will follow the next order, from left to right:

 

From that list, we can distinguish three different types of bosses: The first four bosses (Eranog, Primal Council, Terros and Sennarth), Wing Bosses (Dathea, Ascended and Kuros Grimtotem) and the Final Bosses (Broodkeeper Diurna and Raszageth).

The bosses follow the next loot table:

Difficult	Bosses 1 - 4	Wing Bosses	Final Bosses
Raid Finder	376	382	385
Normal	389	395	398
Heroic	402	408	411
Mythic*	415	421	424

*Note: Mythic mode will be available in mid-late January.

 

All the remaining information about the raid (additional rewards, transmog sets, unique items) can be seen here.

PRIMAL STORMS AND WORLD BOSSES

 

The Primal Storms will be the primary way to get PvE gear before adventuring on dungeons, raids, or trying to take down World Bosses. It will allow players to adventure in periodic Open World events, take down enemies, and get currencies to buy and upgrade gear. 

• Elemental Overflow (the main currency that drops from Primal Invasion) from almost all mobs in the invasion. Elemental Overflow purchases the Rare quality (ilvl 359) gear from invasions.
• Storm Sigil (a weekly currency) can be obtained once per type of invasion per week. Storm Sigils are used to upgrade Rare-quality invasion gear into Epic quality gear (ilvl385).

You may check this guide for more information about Primal Storms.

 

World Bosses will be the next step to getting more powerful gear. They will follow a weekly rotation in which only one boss will be available each time:

Basrikron (The Waking Shores) → Strunraan (Ohn'ahran Plains) → Bazual (The Azure Span) → Liskanoth (Thaldraszus).

The gear obtained from each boss will be limited. All the pieces will be ilvl 395. Each boss will drop one piece of equipment of each type and an extra one (5 in total):

World Boss	Cloth	Leather	Mail	Plates	Extra
Basrikron	Belt of Living Earth	Stony Cragwalkers	Petrified Bracelets	Hardened Shale Breastplate	Earthspeaker's Brooch
Strunraan	Stormshale Cuffs	Tights of Twisting Winds	Storm Chaser's Waistguard	Striders of the Sky's Misery	Static-Charged Scale
Bazual	Magmatic Vestments	Cinderfang Wrap	Basalt Brood Stompers	Shackles of the Dreaded Flame	Smoldering Sulfuron Signet
Liskanoth	Frozen Footwraps	Glacial Bindings	Horns of the Futurebane	Icebound Girdle	Frosted Scale Drape

CRIMSON GLADIATOR PvP SEASON

 

The PvP Season 1, Crimson Gladiator, and the ranking will officially start for Arenas, Rated Battlegrounds, and Solo Queue. Since the entire Season is linked with the 3 mechanics, we will describe each mechanic and mention item ilvls, costs and rewards, and all possible achievements. However, remember that the Seasonal Gladiator rewards will be adjusted once the Season ends to match the total number of players who participated in it and the maximum rating achieved during the season.

 

First, players can get Drakebreaker Gear in Valdrakken this season using Bloody Tokens.
These tokens will be obtained automatically by having Warmode on and doing World Quests after reaching level 70. This is the most basic PvP gear with custom PvP bonuses and two, four and six-piece sets. The pieces have base ilvl 366.

The Drakebreaker Gear pieces can be upgraded to ilvl 385 using Trophy of Strife, a currency type of item that can be earned doing one of the four Sparks of Life quests delivered by various NPCs.

 

The following gear would be the Honor gear. This gear can be purchased using Honor, obtained from any PvP activity. Honor gear has a base item level of 340 (scaled up to 411 in PvP), and the base item level can be upgraded using Honor:

Armor Slot	Purchase (ilvl 340)	Rank 2 (ilvl 346)	Rank 3 (ilvl 353)	Rank 4 (ilvl 359)	Rank 5 (ilvl 366)
Helm, Chest, Legs	875	500	625	1000	1250
Shoulders, Gloves, Feet	700	400	500	800	1000
Cloaks, Bracers, Rings, and Belt	525	300	400	600	750
One-Hand Weapons	875	500	625	1000	1250
Gladiator Trinkets	525	300	375	600	750
DPS Trinkets	700	400	500	800	1000
Two-Hand Weapons	1750	1000	1250	2000	2500
Off-Hands	425	250	300	500	625

 

 

 

Finally, the best PvP gear would be the Conquest one. The primary source of Conquest is winning rated arenas and battlegrounds. There is a weekly Conquest cap of 550, which is raised by 550 every week. 

To purchase the gear, you will need the following Conquest points: 

Armor Slot	Conquest to purchase
Two-Hand weapons	1800
One-Hand weapons	900 to 1350
Helm, Chest, and Legs	875
Shoulders, Gloves, and Feet	700
Trinkets (DPS)	700
Trinkets (Gladiator)	525
Cloaks, Bracers, Rings, and Belt	500
Off-Hands Weapons	450

 

Despite the gear costing Conquest to be purchased, it will then cost Honor to be upgraded. The base item level will be 382 (upgradeable with Honor points) and will scale up to ilvl 424 in PvP (the highest ilvl during the Season). To upgrade the Conquest gear, you need a specific seasonal arena rating as requirement:

Upgrade level	Rating Requirement
1 -> 2	Combatant I (1000)
3	Combatant II (1200)
4	Challenger I (1400)
5	Challenger II (1600)
6	Rival I(1800)
7	Rival II(1950)
8	Duelist (2100)
9	Elite (2400)

 

 

Finally, there will be a weekly arena rotation to ensure that players have a plan of what arenas they could encounter and strategies for them. The rotation will be as follows: 

Pool A	Pool B	Pool C
Nagrand Arena	Nagrand Arena	Nagrand Arena
Dalaran Arena	Ruins of Lordaeron	Hook Point
The Tiger's Peak	The Tiger's Peak	Tol'viron Arena
Enigma Crucible	Empyrean Domain	Ashamane's Fall
Empyrean Domain	Blade's Edge Arena	The Robodrome
Ashamane's Fall	Maldraxxus Coliseum	Mugambala
Maldraxxus Coliseum	Black Rook Hold Arena	Enigma Crucible
Nokhudon Proving Grounds	Nokhudon Proving Grounds	Nokhudon Proving Grounds

 

 

There will be rewards for the season's top players when Season 1 ends and we move to the next one. As we said before, we cannot specify how many players for each tier will win, primarily since most achievements and rewards are obtained during the season and not at the end.

• New Gladiator title: Crimson Gladiator (and achievement Crimson Gladiator: Dragonflight Season 1). 
• New Solo Queue title: Crimson Legend (and achievement Crimson Legend: Dragonflight Season 1).
• New Gladiator mount: Crimson Gladiator's Drake (and achievement Crimson Gladiator's Drake).
• Unique Dragonriding appearance: Highland Drake: Embodiment of the Crimson Gladiator.
