Heroic difficulty recommends 274 item level and adds special modifiers, such as roving elite enemies!
Featuring a normal and Heroic world tier to ramp up the difficulty, these open-world zones challenge players to join an expedition of Illidari, Riftblades, and the Army of the Light in a variety of new quests, replete with rare enemies, world quests, secrets, events, and a unique world boss in each area. In return, they'll earn Field Accolades to spend on catch-up gear and transmog, as well as the opportunity to earn new Housing Decor items, mounts, pets, toys, and more!
Join the Illidari and the Army of the Light as you venture into Val and Naigtal to confront the leaders of the Void.
To begin, speak with Riftblade Maella in Silvermoon City to start a new questline, then travel through the portal in Voidstorm in Howling Reach to your destination. Each area rotates weekly, becoming available for one week at a time.
You’ll progress through a variety of quests, defeat rare enemies, complete World Quests, and confront the world boss in each area behind the invasions in Azeroth.
Choose Your Difficulty for Rewards (and the Challenge)
When first selecting the portal to travel to the destination, you’ll choose to face the challenges within either Normal or Heroic difficulty, providing increased rewards in Heroic.
Earn Field Accolades you can spend on a variety of new rewards from the vendors in the Umbral Base Camp.
