Dragonflight raids and dungeons now use legacy loot
World of Warcraft has updated its Legacy Loot content pool again, as Dragonflight‘s joins during the line-up during the Midnight pre-patch. Legacy Loot was originally introduced during Battle for Azeroth, scoped to include all past expansions’ raids and dungeons up to Mists of Pandaria. It has since progressed with each new expansion, automatically applying to raids and dungeons from two or more expansions behind the current. Here’s what content is now available for you to farm to your heart’s content for transmog, including a few rare bonus drops and purchases that may have passed you by when Dragonflight was the current expansion.
Legacy Loot allows players to receive more, varied drops when completing a party or raid instance, even while solo. The players do increased damage and reduce the damage they take, so the bosses inside can be taken out quickly. Solo players effectively receive the equivalent to a group’s worth of loot from the boss’s loot table, making it an excellent method for farming transmogs of any weapon and armor type (equipable or not) from past content.

The following instanced content is included under the new Legacy loot scope:
Dungeons
- Algeth’ar Academy
- Brackenhide Hollow
- Halls of Infusion
- Neltharus
- Ruby Life Pools
- The Azure Vault
- The Nokhud Offensive
- Uldaman: Legacy of Tyr
- Dawn of the Infinite
Raids
- Vault of the Incarnates (tier sets) — currently the dragonriding section at the start of the raid does not benefit from the damage multiplier (source: Wowhead).
- Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible (tier sets)
- Amirdrassil, the Dream’s Hope (tier sets)

There are some loot quirks you’ll want to know in advance. Wowhead has reported that the class-specific legendaries are still restricted, unlike Rae’shalare from Shadowlands. Also, you still need to complete the raid skip unlock quests (requiring three lockout cycles before completion).
However, as of Midnight, unlocking a full set of tier armor from a higher difficulty (such as Mythic) should unlock all the tier sets below it, effectively giving you four color ways for the price of one and making it very worth tackling the complex mechanics that still apply in Mythic-tier. It also makes finding the expansion’s particular NPC to queue for LFR solo a thing of the past!
Legacy Loot makes it a lot easier to obtain unique goodies for your WoW collection. The final raid bosses (Raszageth in Vault of the Incarnates, Sarkareth in Aberrus, and Fyrakk in Amirdrassil) drop customizations for two of the origina dragonflying mounts. Chrono-Lord Deios in Dawn of the Infinite drops tokens that turn into a random mount or transmog not in your collection. Finally, you can farm the items to purchase the two vendor mounts from Tattukiaka the Tuskarr in Iskaara:
- The Ivory Trader’s Ottuk is purchased with three dungeon drop runs: the Platinum Star Band (Vexamus in Algeth’ar Academy), the Unstable Arcane Loop (Leymore in Azure Vault), and the Thunderous Downburst Ring (Raging Tempest in Nokhud Offensive).
- The Iskaara Trader’s Ottuk is purchased with two amulets from Vault of the Incarnates: Terros’s Captive Core (Terros) and Eye of the Vengeful Hurricane (Dathea, Ascended).
So on the off-chance you’re bored in the coming Void-versus-Light face-off, you have a lot of old content just waiting for you to tackle for that ever expanding horde of pixel collectables. After all, transmog is the the real endgame of World of Warcraft. Happy hunting!
