Mythic

World of Warcraft patch 11.1 is on the PTR, and Mythic+ dungeon testing is set to commence tomorrow and continue for 6 weeks.

With the imminent launch of The War Within, players will be chomping at the bit to dive into some of those new dungeons and raids, full of everything from fire bees to angry Arathi.

World of Warcraft: The War Within gets the typical batch of new dungeons, but not too much will be changing in dungeons themselves — we're doing the same old thing, just in new places.

Dragonflight Season 4 is now live, and it includes the new Awakened raid system, big changes to dungeons, and upgraded loot for everybody.

When a new season of content starts in World of Warcraft, it's fairly normal for dungeon difficulty to rise as item levels go up across the board; however, today Blizzard posted significant dungeon changes coming in Dragonflight Season 4.

One of the things that's evolved over time in World of Warcraft, and is going to evolve more in The War Within, is that you can make choices about what you get up to in the game.

Each season of Mythic+ has started bringing new dungeons with it, and Dragonflight patch 10.2 will be no different with a refreshed Mythic+ rotation that's a mix of a little new but mostly old.

Ever since Blizzard replaced Challenge Modes with Mythic+ dungeons in Legion, there have been pools of affixes -- additional effects like Grievous or Storming that each add additional difficulty to the dungeon beyond just the baseline Mythic+ expectation of "everything has more hit points and hits harder." These affixes rotate on a weekly basis, and to keep it from getting stale, Blizzard changes things from season to season, rotating the available dungeon pool, tweaking existing affixes, and adding a seasonal affix which always appear at keystone level 10 and above.

Community Manager Randy Jordan took to the World of Warcraft forums to announce the removal of the caps on both Conquest and Valor that players can earn, coming February 14 with the weekly reset.

One thing I don't like doing in MMOs is leading groups.
