Nerub-ar Palace

The fight against Nexus-Princess Ky'veza continues as neither Team Liquid nor Echo managed to snag a kill, even though both guilds have now gotten Ky'veza very low.

Three more guilds have downed Ovi'nax to join Team Liquid in struggling with Nexus-Princess Ky'veza as the Race to World First for Nerub'ar Palace continues.

Team Liquid claimed another world first by taking down Ovi'nax after 120 pulls — and as of this writing, the rest of the Nerub-ar Palace Race to World First is still progressing on this worm.

Raiding in Nerub-ar Palace is in full swing at all levels of play in The War Within, from the Race to World First to LFR, but one difficulty is new: Story Mode, which allows anyone to enter a solo version of the Queen Ansurek fight with a party of NPC allies and see an abbreviated version of the encounter.

About twenty guilds have hit 4/8 Mythic in Nerub-ar Palace, but no one has killed Broodtwister Ovi'nax, the first boss these raid groups haven't steamrolled over.

With the second week of The War Within Season 1 upon us, it's time to once again don our fashion critic helms and evaluate the looks of the Nerub-ar Palace tier sets.

Nerub-ar Palace opened on Mythic difficulty on NA realms on September 17, which marked the official start the Nerub-ar Palace Race to World First.

After The War Within Season 1 started last week, I know players are all eager to jump online and check their Great Vault this morning to see what's shown up.

The first raid in the current World of Warcraft expansion, The War Within, is the Nerub-ar Palace, and it's opening September 10.

Blizzard has been great about laying out the timing of their upcoming releases lately, so it's not surprising that, ahead of World of Warcraft's launch of The War Within expansion, we already have a start date for season 1: September 10, though, as this is a global release, for certain time zones, this will be September 11.
