When Thursday arrives, nothing in WoW Classic will ever be the same… again. Well, that’s if you’re on the Season of Discovery server, which will progress into Phase 5 with a trio of newish raids to conquer.
Blizzard posted the patch notes for Phase 5 with a preview of the reworked Blackwing Lair, Zul’Gurub, and Crystal Vale raids. For Blackwing Lair, the studio is including a flexible Tier 2 armor system that allows players “to have the maximum amount of flexibility to either continue utilizing their existing Tier 1 bonuses but with the higher item level and power of Tier 2, or mix and match set bonuses from both sets to further customize their build all while maintaining a cohesive item appearance.”
Other changes of note include plenty of class rune tweaks, 12 new runes to purchase, a doubling of base honor gains for PvP, and incentives to run Arathi Basin and Warsong Gulch battlegrounds.
While the patch isn’t here yet, you can read the full list of patch notes on the website right the heck now.
