news

Greetings Firestorm!

Today, we have several exciting updates to share with you, and we're sure you'll enjoy them!

We're introducing our own Season 4 to The War Within, featuring the Fated system. This also means the current Season 3 will be coming to an end, with rewards distributed as usual. Boris is also coming to both TWW and BfAR realms, with some changes and improvements. And to top it all off, all points donations will receive a 30% bonus for a limited time.

Let's go through each of these updates in detail:

 

THE WAR WITHIN · SEASON 4: FATED

On October 5, 2026, a brand-new season called Fated will begin. It’s somewhat similar to what we’ve seen before, such as in Shadowlands or Dragonflight, but this time it's unique and customized. Seasonal currencies from S3 (Crests, Conquest, Bloody Tokens and Restored Coffer Key) will be reset.

Let’s go through everything you need to know, step by step:

 

SEASON OVERVIEW · FATED CONTENT  

RAIDS: All three raids are Fated for the whole season: Nerub-ar Palace, Liberation of Undermine and Manaforge Omega. Each boss is retuned to the Season 4 power level, and every raid drops Season 4 item levels with the "Fated" title.   MYTHIC : The pool is the 10 The War Within dungeons, all retuned for the new season: Ara-Kara, City of Threads, The Stonevault, The Dawnbreaker, Cinderbrew Meadery, Darkflame Cleft, Priory of the Sacred Flame, The Rookery, Operation: Floodgate, Eco-Dome Al'dani.   DELVES & WORLD BOSSES: Retuned too, and they drop Season 4 item levels. The Khaz Algar world bosses from every season are back at Season 4 fated power.   PVP: New PvP season with its own rating achievements: Fated Gladiator: The War Within Season 4 Fated Warlord: The War Within Season 4 Fated Marshal: The War Within Season 4 Fated Legend: The War Within Season 4   New titles: Fated Gladiator, Fated Legend, Fated Marshal and Fated Warlord. Season 4 PvP gear goes up to ilvl 769 (Gladiator). Echo of Fate is earned in every mode: Battlegrounds, rated Battlegrounds, Blitz, arenas and Solo Shuffle.

 

GEAR PROGRESSION & UPGRADES

NEW GEAR ITEM LEVELS ( 39 on every track)

Explorer: 681 - 704 Adventurer: 694 - 717 Veteran: 707 - 730 Champion: 720 - 743 Hero: 733 - 756 Myth: 746 - 769  

UPGRADES, CRESTS AND TIER SETS

Four new Fated crests (Weathered, Carved, Runed, Gilded) replace the Ethereal crests. Their caps rise every week. Upgrade discounts: the "Outgrow" achievements return for the Fated crests. The Great Vault offers gear from all three raids and lists every raid boss you have defeated. Tier sets from all three seasons are available at Season 4 item levels. Reshii Wraps: The Season 4 track starts at the max Season 3 rank (730), with a new rank unlocking each week. Spend Echoes of Fated at the item upgrade NPC to increase your rank. Season 3 ranks 1-6 (694-730) stay free.  

CRAFTING GEAR

Spark of Fate: new spark with its Fractured Spark fragments and a weekly cap. Base reagent for Season 4 crafted gear. Enchanted Fated Crests raise crafted gear to 746 - 759. Starlight Matrices still add 3 or 7 on top, and are now bought with Fated crests.

 

CATALYST & GREAT VAULT CHANGES

The Catalyst and the Great Vault will now work together. A new interface will be available in the Catalyst, allowing you not only to convert a piece of gear, but also to choose which raid you want your Great Vault loot to come from.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It's important to note that:

If you never choose, the default is Season 3 (Manaforge Omega).    Not using the catalyst in the first week changes nothing: charges are kept (1 per week) and the choice applies whenever you use it.   The choice only affects tier set pieces: catalyst conversions and the tier-set roll of the Great Vault. Every other Great Vault item still comes from all three raids. For example, if you want the Catalyst to convert an item into a piece of the Manaforge tier set, you need to select Manaforge Omega in the Catalyst. However, don’t forget to change this setting later if you want the Great Vault to offer options from the Nerub-ar Palace or Liberation of Undermine.   You can switch your choice wherever you want, but the Great Vault uses the choice active when your vault is generated for the week (the first time it is shown after the reset).   Tier tokens looted from raid bosses still give their own raid's set, whatever you chose.

 

TURBO BOOST CHIP MECHANIC UPDATED TO SEASON 4

We’ve also decided to implement the Puzzle Chip system for Season 4. The system works the same way as before: you’ll receive 3 chips during the first week, followed by 1 per week, with a catch-up system in place. Choose wisely, as you’ll only be able to have 9 chips in total per character.

 

NEW CURRENCY: ECHO OF FATE

This new Fated season introduces a new currency called Echoes of Fated, which can be earned from Mythic runs, with higher-level keys rewarding more Echoes, raid bosses, with the final bosses rewarding a higher amount, PvP matches and Delves.

BORIS RETURNS!

Boris will work a little differently this time and will be available from October 2nd to October 11th. Please note this gives only one boost per account, not per character. Once you use the boost on a character, Boris cannot be used again on any other character on that account.

We've listed all the changes below, so make sure to read them carefully before choosing your character, as Boris can only be used once and there will be no exceptions.  

 BORIS IN BFA: REFORGED 

You'll find Boris right where your new character starts: in Boralus for Alliance and Dazar'alor for Horde. 

What you get with Boris:

Level 120, instantly Your Heart of Azeroth, with the introductory questline already behind you A full set of gear at normal dungeon item level, chosen for your loot specialization Spare weapons for your other specs, so a respec doesn't leave you empty-handed Four extra PvP trinkets that work on any specialization One random Flight Point discovered in each zone 1,000 gold A lift to the capital hub  

Before talking to Boris, you'll get a confirmation window showing the specialization he's going to use. Make sure it's the one you want before accepting, as Boris will use it to set your specialization and build your gear around it.

A quick heads-up:

Your starting outfit is replaced, not kept. The best gear for your character will be equipped automatically, while the rest will go into your bags. Any items that don’t fit will be sent to your mailbox.

 

 BORIS IN THE WAR WITHIN

Boris waits in Orgrimmar / Stormwind and every race's starting zone, including allied races, Dracthyr, Earthen, Death Knights, Demon Hunters and the Exile's Reach ships. 

What you get with Boris:

Level 80, straight into The War Within A confirmation box shows exactly which specialization your gear is for, so set your loot specialization first A full set of this season's Mythic 0 dungeon gear (Champion 681), chosen for your spec and equipped where it's an upgrade. (Your starting gear is cleared out to make room. Anything that doesn't fit in your bags is mailed to you) Every weapon type your class can use, for your other specializations The season's 4 Aspirant PvP trinkets (Astral 658, Explorer 8/8) 4 Silkweave Satchels, equipped right away 1000 gold Dragonriding with 4 dragon mounts, plus every Khaz Algar flight path Dragonflight & War Within intros skipped, with no leftover quest items Hearthstone set to Dornogal, and a teleport there, where the K'aresh campaign begins

Your starting gear is removed. Anything that doesn't fit in your bags is mailed to you.

Champions... The official BfA Reforged realm is officially OPEN! Join us and start your adventure today!

DON’T KNOW WHAT BFA: REFORGED IS? READ ALL ABOUT IT HERE http://fstorm.cc/bfa-reforged

Download our Launcher, install Battle for Azeroth, and be ready for release.  

LET’S GET INTO THE DETAILS

The PTR is now closed as we prepare for the official release. Please remember that nothing you did or obtained on the PTR will carry over to the live realm.

Some of you asked about name reservations. We decided not to introduce such a system. It would inevitably favor only part of the community, while preventing abuse and making the process fair for everyone would require unnecessary complexity for something that ultimately has very little impact after launch.   BFA: Reforged launches with Patch 8.0 content, while using 8.3.7 class tuning. Everyone starts fresh.   All Reforged-specific features are available through Plunderforged Bay, our dedicated hub. During your journey, you’ll discover the area and everything it has to offer.   As mentioned in previous posts, all Rank 1 Essences will be available from the start. Our current plan is for each new season to unlock the next rank, but keep in mind that this may change depending on progression and player feedback.   Season duration will be dynamic. Our commitment is to keep progression balanced and the game feeling fresh from beginning to end. If we see strong retention and players are still actively enjoying a patch, it may last longer. If progression starts to feel stale, we may move forward sooner.   Your account-wide cosmetics will also be available across our servers whenever they exist in that expansion. Whether you play on TWW or BFA, if the cosmetic exists there, you’ll have access to it.

And speaking of cosmetics: You can now MERGE your FELSONG cosmetics into your  FIRESTORM account! Simply log into your Firestorm account and follow the steps HERE  

SEASON 1

Season 1 begins immediately on release. Uldir Mythic will open one week later. The Shop will also be available from launch.  

EXPECT A FEW CRASHES

Nothing is perfect. We’ve done everything we can to make the launch as smooth as possible, but we all know how expansion launches usually go.

If crashes happen, give us a little patience. The team will be watching the realm closely and fixing issues as they appear.  

FIRST WEEK LOGIN REWARDS

Join BFA: Reforged during the first week and receive a gift from us:

Gilded Ravasaur Seabraid Stallion Tottle  

Get ready! Download our Launcher, install Battle for Azeroth, and be there when the gates open.

Lastly, we’d like to thank everyone who participated in the PTR and helped us test the content. Your feedback was extremely valuable, and even more importantly, the positive reception to the work we’ve done gave us the confidence to push BFA: Reforged across the finish line  

ARE YOU IN? FOR THE ALLIANCE! FOR THE HORDE! 

 

 

BFA: REFORGED · SHOP UPDATE

After the release of BfA: Reforged, we've finally updated the shop with some exciting new goodies, such as:

New Character Boosts Individual items Heart of Azeroth at level 40 (HoA is not included, you must obtain it in game) Rank 1 Essences And more!

Visit the shop and check out everything that's new: http://fstorm.cc/FS-SHOP

Happy shopping and thank you for supporting us! 

 

 

If you've still got characters to fully gear up, or some trinkets that just won't drop for you, you're going to love and enjoy the Season 3 turbo boost! Additionally, the shop has been updated, so don't miss the information at the end of the post!

Here's what's coming up:

PUZZLING CARTEL CHIPS

The Puzzling Cartel Chip is a new currency that allows players to buy specific items from the Manaforge Omega raid or Mythic trinkets and weapons.

Where can I pick up the quest?

Located near the Great Vault in Dornogal, you will see an ethereal scroll on the wall. Interact with it to start the quest called Turbo-Boost: Trade Must Flow, when you complete this quest, you will be rewarded with 3 Puzzling Cartel Chips, in the following weeks you will receive just one Chip by picking this quest: Turbo Boost: Infinity Growth. There's also a catch-up system that lets players who missed a few weeks complete the quest multiple times and claim all the pieces.

Important: You are limited to earning 9 Puzzling Cartel Chips per character, with each item costing 3 Chips, so you will only be able to buy 3 items per character.

Where can I get my raid gear pieces?

Once you have 3 Chips, you can visit the dealers Fixer So'kir (Heroic Vendor) and Fixer So'tho (Mythic Vendor) in Dornogal near the Great Vault and exchange three Puzzling Cartel Chips to purchase gear (trinkets, weapons and special items from the Manaforge Omega Raid on Hero and Myth Track).   

Requirements for Purchasing Raid Gear: Both Hero and Myth Track gear can be purchased with Chips, but each has its own unlock requirements.

Hero Track: You must defeat a boss on Normal difficulty or higher before you can purchase that boss's Hero Track loot. Myth Track: You must defeat a boss on Mythic difficulty before you can purchase that boss's Myth Track loot.

Requirements for Purchasing Mythic  Gear: For Mythic , only weapons and trinkets are available for purchase with Chips.

Hero Track: Available immediately with enough Chips. Myth Track: Requires timing the dungeon on Keystone Level 12 or higher before its Myth Track item becomes available for purchase.

 

HERO AND MYTH TRACK INCREASES

Hero and Myth track gear now has 2 additional upgrade ranks, increasing the maximum from 6/6 to 8/8.

Myth Track: Maximum increased to 730. Hero Track: Maximum increased to 717.

 

UPGRADE CURRENCIES AND WARBOUND GEAR DROP RATES

Crest caps are being removed, and Valorstones will be Warbound for the rest of the season. On top of that, Mythic chests will have double the chance to drop Warbound-until-Equipped gear. This should help players gear their alts more easily!

 

PROFESSION GEAR UPDATES

Crafted gear is also getting a boost. Once Turbo Boost goes live, items crafted with a Spark of Starlight can be recrafted or upgraded using a Starlight Matrix, increasing their item level by up to 6 levels.

The Matrices have also been improved:

Runed Starlight Matrix: Grants 3 item levels. Gilded Starlight Matrix: Grants 6 item levels, allowing crafted gear to reach ilvl 727.

Starlight Matrices will be available for purchase from Llande or Syenite in Dornogal.

 

CATALYST CHARGES

Ethereal Voidsplinter (Catalyst charges) now drop from Mythic dungeons, the Manaforge Omega raid, and Rated PvP.

These can help you complete your Tier Set Bonus or unlock specific Season 3 Tier Set transmog appearances.

 

OTHER FEATURES

Warband Equipment Chests:

Ethereal Equipment Chest: Available from Agmera in exchange for Valorstones. Astral Equipment Chest: Available from Lalandi (Conquest Vendor), in exchange for Conquest, with a required PvP rating of 1400 (any bracket).

 

 

TURBO BOOST · SHOP UPDATE

We've added some exciting updates to our shop:

 NEW 11.2.5 CHARACTER BOOST Character Boost ilvl 707 (myth 1/8) → 1100 points. Character boost BiS ilvl 730 (myth 8/8) → 2200 points.

 

 CHARACTER BOOST UPGRADES New Sentinel Character Boost ilvl 707 (myth 1/8):

If you purchased the new Sentinel Character Boost ilvl 707 (myth 1/8) for 1100 Points, you can upgrade that character to BiS ilvl 730 (myth 8/8) for 1100 Points more.

Already bought a character boost in Season 3? This is for you!

 

S3 Aspirant Character Boost:

Upgrade your 700 Points Boost from Season 3 to Mythic ilvl 707 (myth 1/8) for 400 Points or BiS ilvl 730 (myth 8/8) for 1500 Points.

INDIVIDUAL GEAR Individual gear ilvl 707 (myth 1/8) → 100 points. Individual gear ilvl 730 (myth 8/8) → 240 points.

 

COUPONS AND ROSTER The coupon and roster percentages have been adjusted to the new prices. The roster system still count all the BiS Conqueror Boost purchased during the Season 3.

 

 

Dear players, It’s time to reveal a project that marks a new direction for Firestorm, and one we have been working on for the past year. With this project, we want to start treating legacy differently: not as a simple return to the past, but as a chance to revisit an expansion with years of feedback, hindsight and the intent to make it play closer to what it could have been.

BATTLE FOR AZEROTH: REFORGED - August 31st, 2026 Experience it the way it should’ve been Everyone reading this will be like… “But guys, BFA sucked!!!” For a lot of players, yes. For others, not entirely. It is subjective, and we are not here to pretend the expansion had no problems. For more than a year, we went through feedback, reviews, logs, videos and veteran opinions, then focused on the systems that caused the most frustration. The goal of BFA: Reforged is to keep the same blizzlike flavor, while fixing the expansion’s most controversial problems, making it more alt-friendly and more rewarding to play.

This is also our first real attempt at reviving one of our more recent legacy expansions in a different way. If the community supports this direction and the result proves strong enough, it may become something we explore again with other expansions in the future.

We also timed this project to offer something meaningful to play between TWW Season 3 and Midnight. 

BFA: Reforged is meant to stand on its own, but it will also connect with the rest of Firestorm. Playing on BFA: Reforged will give access to exclusive cross-rewards, including mounts and perks for TWW and the upcoming Midnight realm.

Everyone starts fresh with Season 1 and content Patch 8.0, with future seasons unlocking progressively at a balanced pace.

 

MAIN CHANGES:

You start directly at level 110 in Zandalar or Kul’Tiras, with 240 ilvl gear, four 22-slot bags, some gold and the necessary items for your journey. XP rates are x2, and every different class you level to 120 adds 10% bonus experience for your leveling alts, up to 120%.   Azerite Power is account-wide: Your Heart of Azeroth level and progress are shared and synced across all characters.   Rank 1 Essences are available at launch through vendors or alternative sources, and they are account-wide.   Warforging and Titanforging have been removed: Disenchanting or scrapping non-Azerite gear now awards a currency used to upgrade your gear.   Azerite armor, Essences and PvP gear are available from vendors.   Major abilities are off the Global Cooldown again, bringing back faster combat pacing and smoother rotations.   Modern Bonus Roll System: Bonus rolls now always give a guaranteed item, and cannot grant duplicates. Just like on Midnight, they cost 2x in Raids and just 1 in Dungeons. The current hard cap is 6 tokens / week. You can obtain 3 using the default method, while the other 3 may drop from Spoils of War loot cache.   Reforge Azerite Traits can be used anywhere and is free of cost. Just open your item’s UI and click reset.  

We also added a lot of quality of life changes: previous questlines are not required, Racial Mounts, Draenor & Legion Pathfinder and all Riding skills are unlocked automatically, and some questlines can be skipped after completing them once on the account.

Flying is available earlier too. You can fly after completing Pathfinder: Part 1, and further boost your flying speed by 300% with the Elixir of Soaring Winds, obtained in-game.

For endgame, we simplified the tedious dailies and AP farm with Weekly Challenges, similar to TWW. You choose from a pool of 6 quests split between PvE, PvP and World activities and earn huge rewards.

Island Expeditions can now be solo queued.

Mythic raids are flexible between 10 and 20 players, with enemies scaling their HP and mechanics according to group size. Mythic keystones have extra options: right click your keystone to lower it, change the current dungeon and more. Many affixes have also been adjusted to a more modern design and behavior.

Raids also have Raid Renown. Defeating raid bosses grants account-wide knowledge points for that raid, with the amount varying based on difficulty. Inside the raid, players gain buffs and can activate perks that scale with their renown level.

There are also Daily Missions for BFA activities and Spoils of War Loot, including items such as Tertiary stat upgraders, extra bonus rolls and more.

If you liked Battle for Azeroth, this is your upgrade. If you did not, welcome to the redemption arc!

The full feature list and detailed explanations are available on the website!  

Today we would like to share an important announcement with everyone, and we kindly ask you to read it carefully:

After a lot of consideration, we have decided to permanently close several legacy realms:

Deathwing (Cataclysm) Gul'Dan (WoD) Greymane (Legion) Sethraliss (BfA) Oribos (Shadowlands) Valdrakken (Dragonflight)

* These realms will be shut down on June 29  

 

What are the reasons?

1. We understand these realms hold many memories for our players, but after evaluating their activity, which is really low (peak < 30 online), spreading our resources (staff members,  sys admin....) and other important factors, we believe this is the best step forward for the future of the server. 2. We would like to focus in our more active realms, especially in the main realm, Dornogal. About this realm, we are in the process of hiring developers to actively fix old content, providing a better game experience. 3. There's also good news on the way that we'll share with you, we have been working since awhile on one extension that we plan to relaunch as a fresh realm, we'll be back with more info about that soon!  

 

What if a Legacy Account is not linked to a Firestorm Account yet?

If you still play with a Legacy Account from Millenium, Earthquake, Pandashan or Ashran and you haven't linked it to a Firestorm Account yet, now is the time to do so, you can do it directly from this link: "link your account".   

 

What will happen to achievements, items, and other collections?

We will perform a synchronization process on June 29, meaning that toys, transmogrifications, achievements, and similar collections will remain on your account and they will be available to you in Dornogal (TWW).

We will not be able to sync the Legacy Accounts that were not linked. That is why we strongly recommend linking your account.  

 

What about my characters?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to properly convert characters to the current realm, Dornogal (TWW). Because of this, we're extending Boris's stay in Dornogal by one more week, until June 22, he will offer a character boost lvl 70 with basic starter gear on that realm so you can begin your adventure there if you are interested.

But if you're not interested in playing in Dornogal, we'll keep the option in the shop to copy or transfer characters from WoD to Legion or from Cataclysm to MoP, this option will become free and is temporary, it will only be available until June 29. 

Regarding BfA, SL, or DF realms, almost all the characters are already in TWW, because they got ported automatically with each new expansion release, but if that's not the case, you can use Boris to have a fresh character to play in Dornogal.   

 

What about my spent Firestorm Points?

A refund will be issued for all Fs Points spent on those realms from the past 12 months up to the present day (10 last months for Valdrakken realm). Purchases made in the shop after this announcement will not be refunded.

 

 

 

We want to thank you for everything you've put into these realms, and for being part of Firestorm throughout all these years 

But like everything, things move forward, and it's time to make way for what's coming next.

But that's not all, there's more interesting content to explore. We’ve split it into sections, as each one is important, let's go!

 

 

NEW ARTIFACT: RESHII WRAPS & PHASE DIVING

The Reshii Wraps cloak is a new artifact cloak with the unique ability to allow players to transform their bodies into an energy form will be used throughout many activities, including the open world, the new dungeon, and even the raid.

The cloak is unlocked during the final quest of Chapter 3, “The Tabiqa”, this quest will also award you with your first Fiber, used to add a secondary stat of your choosing to your Reshii Wraps, as well as your first 3 Ethereal Strands, used to upgrade your Reshii Wraps.

 

After completion of this quest, you will receive the quest "A Skip Through the Void", which will bring you to a NPC called Hashim in the Overlook Zo'Shuul area in K'aresh. He will introduce you to Phase Diving and how to upgrade your Cloak.

Similar to tier set bonuses, the Reshii Wraps cloak adapts to specialization roles. In addition to these passive effects, you can customize your cloak with a single secondary stat of your choosing, determined by the Fiber socketed in your cloak:

 Chronomantic Fiber: Adds Haste  Dexterous Fiber: Adds Versatility  Energizing Fiber: Adds Mastery  Precise Fiber: Adds Critical Strike   You can obtain Epic-quality Fibers that grant more secondary stats (craftes by tailors):  Pure Chronomantic Fiber: Adds Haste  Pure Dexterous Fiber: Adds Versatility  Pure Energizing Fiber: Adds Mastery  Pure Precise Fiber: Adds Critical Strike   HOW TO UPGRADE YOUR RESHII WRAPS?  To upgrade your Reshii Wraps, you'll need to use Ethereal Strands to purchase additional enhancements by speaking with Hashim. These strands can be earned in Delves, Mythic Keystone Dungeons, and PvP matches across Khaz Algar. In K’aresh, you can additionally seek them within the Manaforge Omega and by completing Warrants. You can earn up to 15 strands to empower your cloak, with a limit of 3 strands per week. Each empowerment costs 3 strands and has 1 rank each.       RESHII WRAPS FOR ALTS: To unlock K’aresh on your alt, talk to Locus-Walker (Return to the Veiled Market) in the Foundation Hall to begin the skip, then speak with Omen to continue it. After that, head to Overlook Zosu and talk to Hashim to receive your new wraps (cloak). You can also purchase the base gems from the nearby vendor if needed.       PHASE DIVING   Phase Diving is a new gameplay feature that transforms you into pure energy and allows players to shift between different versions of the same area. By diving into another phase, players can discover hidden treasures, unique enemies, special events, and exclusive rewards unavailable in the normal version of the zone.   As mentioned above, after completing the quest "the tabiqa” and obtaining the Reshii Wraps, players will be introduced to Hashim and Shad’anis. This unlocks the quest “Another World,” which begins the introductory phase.      

The Phase Diving also have waypoints, known as Conduits. You can enter Phase Diving at any Conduit. Once you've visited a Phase Conduit at least once, you'll be able to teleport instantly to it from another waypoint, making travel across K'aresh much faster.

Here's the map with all Phase Diving waypoints in Karesh:

  This phase also includes a weekly quest called "More Than Just a Phase", which can be obtained from either Shad'anis in Overlook Zo'Shuul or Constable Zo'ardaz in Tazavesh, and tasks players with killing mobs, looting treasures, and completing World Quests while Phase Diving.

Greetings everyone! Our developers have been working on a highly requested quality of life system, bringing it back for you and your friends to enjoy with extra bonus: The Recruit a Friend system!

We had it once in the past but sadly we couldn't port it over to Valdrakken, so we made a new and improved version that everyone can benefit from.

 

 

Let's move on and see how it works:

First of all, you need to know that you will be able to use "Recruit a Friend" system once a month on one of your friends, as long as their account has no characters above level 59. Second, an invite is being generated every month with conditions which are;

You need to log at least once a month. Having a character with maximum level (80) that has at least 681 ilvl gear.

Not only that but also these invites we've mentioned stack up to 3 and can all be used at the same time if you wish.

Finally, you are going to have a track of the recruit you did in-game with details about the progress of the activities you need to do in order to obtain the rewards.

  

Note: If a character that has been invited via the RaF system is deleted, they will no longer be able to obtain the rewards

 

What about your friends?

Of course, you're inquiring what are my friends getting from a feature like this? Well, we didn't forget that so let's see;

Your recruited friends will get the same rewards we will mention below but there will be some additional rewards to them too which are; They will be rewarded by a level 70 boost that includes: A bag of 22 slots. 1000 gold. Master Ridding, Skyriding (Renewed Proto-Drake, Highland Drake, Cliffside Wylderdrake and Windborne Velocidrake included) and a Mount from your race. Full set ilvl 415 Teleport to Silithus to start TWW questline.

 

 

Recruit a Friend system REWARDS

Once the conditions and activities mentioned above have been met, there are several rewards you and your recruted friends will receive from using this feature, which are listed below:

150 Firestorm Points that can be spent on the shop. 300 Loyalty Points that can be spent on the shop. A full month of free VIP which you can read about here.

You need to fully relog in order to activate the benefits of the VIP.

 

 

How to Recruit a Friend?

It's very simple, all you need to do is to open the RaF menu from your friend's tab in-game, then the system is self-explanatory.

Once a RaF is completed, both players will be notified by a message in-game.

 

 

With this system, we hope you can bring all your friends over and have fun with them! Games are better with friends, right? Better together!

 

Greetings, everyone!

Our adventure continues, and we can't wait to show you what's next in The War within! Patch 11.1.5  will be released on April 13th, 2026!

 

 

HORRIFIC VISIONS REVISITED

Horrific Visions are back! Step into twisted versions of our capitals, Stormwind and Orgrimmar, that are now fully overtaken by N'Zoth's corruption.

In these instanced scenarios, you'll need to complete objectives while carefully managing your Sanity meter, if it drops to zero, the vision collapses and you fail!  Here's what's new and what's back in the revisited Horrific Visions:

DORNOGAL HORRIFIC VISION HEADQUARTERS

Press "M" to open the map of Dornogal city and look for the Horrific Visions mask icon, this is your central hub for all Vision activities. Here you'll find the Hourglass of Horrific Visions, a talent tree for unlocking run perks, vendors, and the NPC needed to enter Horrific Visions.

But, how to Enter Horrific Visions?

After completing the introductory questline, "Horrific Visions Revisited", you can use the Portal to Horrific Visions Revisited in Dornogal to queue. Starting a Horrific Vision places you in a corrupted version of Stormwind or Orgrimmar, which changes weekly.  

SOLO OR GROUP QUEUE

You can enter Horrific Visions solo or with a group. A new helper, Construct of Soridormi, can join you as a Tank, DPS, or Healer. Since it isn't affected by Sanity loss, solo runs are much easier to manage.  

FACELESS MASKS

The classic Horrific Vision Masks are back, increasing difficulty while unlocking better rewards.

These include:

Mask of Pain Mask of Dark Imagination Mask of the Long Night Mask of the Burned Bridge Mask of the Daredevil

Three new masks are also introduced:

Mask of Vengeance Mask of Multitudes Mask of the Nemesi

Each new mask adds its own effect to the Visions, changing how they play out and offering fresh challenges for players.  

RUNE ENCHANTS

One of the standout features returning with Horrific Visions is a new form of Corruption, not the old gear stat from Battle for Azeroth, but powerful helmet enchantments often called Rune Enchants or Corruption Enchants. 

These are slot-specific helmet enchants that grant strong procs and effects during combat. They replicate classic Corruption effects, such as Twisted Appendage, Infinite Stars, or Echoing Void, without the old drawbacks, it means not having Corruption stat and no penalties.

Rune Enchants add a strong layer of power customization beyond Horrific Visions, bringing back the feel of classic Battle for Azeroth Corruption procs without the hassle of managing a debuff. Because they can be used on high ilvl helmets outside the Visions, they also influence Mythic , PvE, and open-world content throughout the season. These runes and their effect are temporary. They only work during TWW Season 2 and deactivate when the season ends.  

How to Unlock the Rune Enchants?

To gain access to these enchantments, you need to progress through the Horrific Visions activity and complete two quests:

Borrowing Corruption Quest, rewards access to Lesser Runes. Requires: 500 Displaced Corrupted Mementos 8 Black Blood Residue (from Horrific Vision chests)

Once completed, you can buy the Lesser Runes from Augermu in Dornogal for Mementos.

Enhancing Corruption Quest, unlocks Greater Runes (more powerful versions)  Requires: 1000 Displaced Corrupted Mementos 8 Black Blood Coagulate (dropped from Lost zone chests, usually after doing objectives).

After completing these quests once, the enchant options become unlocked for your whole Warband, meaning alts can use them too once unlocked.

Here's a guide of best Corruption Enchants from Horrific Visions for All Classes in the War Within Season 2  

NEW CURRENCY: DISPLAYED CORRUPTED MEMENTOS

Completing Visions now grants a new currency, Displaced Corrupted Mementos, which can be spent at the vendors Augermu and Torie for:

Rune Enchants Mounts Toys Transmogs Weapon enchants Other cosmetic rewards

Here's a guide: Horrific Visions Revisited  

 

 

NEW SCENARIO: NIGHTFALL

 

Nightfall is a new world event that happens every hour in Hallowfall. In this scenario, players will join tasks forces with the new faction, Flame's Radiance, to help defend the Arathi against the Sureki.

The final step gives you a quick pause before a one-minute wave of Nerubians, followed by their champion, Anub'Ranax, and defeating him ends the event. After that, you can collect your rewards: crests, crystals, valorstones, reputation with Flame’s Radiance...

Also, each week you can pick up the quest The Flame Burns Eternal, which sends you into a Nightfall scenario. To complete it, just join the event and defeat the lieutenant boss at the end. The quest is given by Mylton Wyldbraun and rewards:

The Flame's Radiance is a new Renown faction introduced in Patch 11.1.5. It's a military force formed by Hallowfall's best defenders, they're united to protect the cavern from any outside threats

Their base of operations is located near the fields of Morgaen's Tears in Hallowfall, east of Mereldar. This hub houses the Renown Quartermaster and serves as the starting point for all major faction quests.  

 

How to Earn Renown?

You can progress your Renown with the Flame's Radiance, you must first accept an intro quest in Dornogal that will take you to Hallowfall, where the main camp of the faction is situated at Morgaen's Tears. 

You can earn Reputation through the following activities:

PUZZLING CARTEL CHIPS

A new weekly quest lets players earn Puzzling Cartel Chips, a special currency used to buy raid gear.

Where can I get my raid gear pieces?

This quest will be available after completing the campaign quest "Eyes from Above", from Undermine campaing chapter two "Undermine Awaits". 

DRIVE MECHANICS

Drifting your vehicle: Hold down Spacebar while riding your car to start drifting, generating 2 Turbo every 0.5 seconds as long as you maintain the drift. Releasing your Spacebar will stop the drifting. In addition to regenerating Turbo, drifting allows you to make sharper turns.   Driving over Kaja'Cola cans: You'll occasionally find Kaja’Cola cans on the ground, usually in stacks of three. Running over each can restores 5 Turbo.

 

CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS

Your G-99 Breakneck is a highly customizable vehicle, meaning you can not only choose some colors but also adjust your car's behavior on the road. Mobber will be glad to help you change your vehicle’s appearance and behavior.  There are currently 5 ways in which you can customize your G-99. Customizations that can be obtained from vendors, by looting treasures or defeating Rares.

 

ACTIVITIES: SHIPPING AND HANDLING

Get ready for new content in Siren Isle  

NEW ZONE: SIREN ISLE

 

Siren Isle, once known to the Vrykul as Cyrandall, is a storm-lashed island steeped in mystery. During the Fourth War, the Ashvane Company mined its cliffs for Azerite, but when the war ended, its inhabitants vanished, leaving behind only the howling winds and the whispers of something ancient.  Drawn by the power of a whispering crystal, the Earthen, Goblins, and Arathi have established competing expeditions across the island, while the Bloodwake Vrykul, Darktide Naga, and Bilge Rat Pirates fight to seize control of its ruins.

To unlock Siren Isle, start "A Sonf of Secrets", a short questline offered by Dawn in the Foundation Hall of Dornogal.

Travel between Khaz Algar and Siren Isle aboard the Princess's Pride zeppelin, captained by Sky-Captain Cableclamp, which becomes available after completing the introductory questline. Finishing this introduction also unlocks a second route, the Mole Machine, stationed outside Gundargaz in the Ringing Deeps, providing quick passage to and from the isle.  

But there's more to find on Siren Isle: 

STORM PHASE The island itself shifts with the storm’s fury, alternating between Storm Inactive Phases with mob invasions and a Storm Active Phase. During the default Siren Isle phase, no storm is active. In this state, different groups of enemies invade the island, and these groups rotate weekly. The possible invasions include:      · Naga invaders - weekly quest: Serpent's Wrath      · Vrykul invaders - weekly quest: Legacy of the Vrykul      · Pirate invaders - weekly quest: Tides of Greed Each week's invading faction brings its own rare enemies and unique objectives to the isle. However, most rare spawns and excavation sites remain consistent regardless of the active invasion. After completing the first weekly quest on Siren Isle mentioned above, you’ll be able to enter this special phase, where a massive storm is affecting the isle. During the Storm Phase, you won’t be able to fly due to the effects of Seafury Tempest, and different mobs will appear across the island. You'll also find additional quests, including a weekly quest, that can be completed. Keep in mind that once the weekly reset happens, you’ll need to unlock access to the Storm Phase again for the following week. This phase allows you to obtain the secret mount Thrayir, Eyes of the Siren, which is accessed during an active storm event while completing Special Assignments. To release him, you must gather 5 runekeys and match them to the corresponding runestones. Click here to check out a full guide

 

FLAME-BLESSED IRON A new currency unique to the isle that can be used to trade for a variety of new rewards including mounts, pets, Warbound-Until-Equipped gear , transmog, and more!  This new currency will also be used to purchase Cyrce's Circlet Gems and help trigger a brand new event called Major Excavations.

 

MAJOR EXCAVATIONS  A new public event that offer an opportunity to unearth treasures and recieve loot caches. You’ll learn more about this in the next section.

 

FLY AND SIREN ISLE Normal fly won't be available on Siren Isle at launch,  but it will unlock in the coming weeks after players complete the necessary requirements. However, flying remains disabled during the Storm Phase. But there's another method that allows for limited flying on Siren Isle, the Experimental Go-Pack! These rockets propel you into the air and let you glide, giving you full control over your descent.  You’ll gain access to Go-Packs after completing the quest Peak Precision. You can purchase these rockets from Sally Boltwrench at Flotsam Shoal during the non-storm phase of Siren Isle. Each Go-Pack costs 10 Flame-Blessed Iron, lasts for 1 hour, and you can carry up to 10 at a time.

 

 

NEW PUBLIC EVENT: MAJOR EXCAVATIONS  

A new public event takes place on Siren Isle, where three sealed caves each imprison a terrifying foe. These sites have drawn the attention of the Earthen, Goblins, and Arathi: the Earthen seek to study the strange energies radiating from Shuddering Hollow, the Goblins crave the riches hidden within The Drain, and the Arathi aim to destroy the menace lurking in The Drowned Lair.

Players can donate their Flame-Blessed Iron to their chosen faction to help each faction break into these caves and uncover what lies within. You’ll need 150 Flame-Blessed Iron to start a Major Excavation. After the donation is completed, you’ll have a few minutes to reach the designated location before the explosives are deployed. Check your map to see the excavation’s exact position! When the countdown reaches zero, the cave will open, allowing you to enter.

Each excavation involves defeating a Rare Elite boss within the cave. For example, in The Drain, you'll encounter Gravesludge. Defeating the boss is essential for completing the excavation and unlocking its rewards. After the rare is defeated, you’ll receive a Crate of Bygone Riches, which contains valuables such as Flame-Blessed Iron, Valorstones, crests, gems for Cyrce’s Circlet, and Veteran gear.

 

 

CYRCE'S CIRCLET  

Cyrce's Circlet is a customizable ring obtained from “A Song of Secrets”, the main Siren Isle questline.

After completing the introductory quests to acquire your ring and learn how to use it, you’ll unlock a series of time-gated quests, each rewarding you with a Raw Singing Citrine. The ring starts at Item Level 642 and can be upgraded over six weeks to reach its maximum Item Level 658. A catch-up system will allow players to obtain missed Raw Singing Citrines from previous weeks by completing the related quests.

The ring provides baseline Stamina and features three empty sockets that can be filled with gems found across the isle, each offering unique effects. There will be four gems available per color. Once you have found a gem from its source, it will become available from the Siren Isle vendors.

In the first Yellow Socket, you must insert a Singing Thunder Citrine. In the second Blue Socket, you must insert a Singing Sea Citrine. The third Pink Socket is intended for a Singing Wind Citrine.
