Prepare to face the Madness of Deathwing again to stop the Calaclysm: Hour of Twilight is now live on the Classic servers! Additionally, the Dragon Soul raid opens its doors today, so prepare for some dragon hunting.
“In Hour of Twilight, Deathwing’s reign of terror will finally come to an end. Featuring a new raid, unexplored dungeons, a legendary rogue quest line, the latest raid tier armor sets, major story developments, and much more. Hour of Twilight has something for everyone.”
There are three Heroic-only dungeons waiting for the arrivals of heroes: End Time, Well of Eternity and Hour of Twilight, all located within the Caverns of Time in Tanaris. Completing them narratively leads you to the Dragon Soul raid. Players have the opportunity to take the fight to Wyrmrest Temple and beyond, assisting Thrall and the Dragon Aspects as they seek to bring an end to the Black Dragonflight once and for all. Take on Deathwing himself, with two levels of difficulty to consider and epic gear to claim.
The raid is available in 10 and 25 player size, featuring both Normal and Heroic difficulties. It features eight bosses that are ready to fight you tooth and nail (or claw):
- Morchok – the most powerful elemental under Deathwing’s sway, Morchok is convinced that his only respite will come with Azeroth’s demise.
- Warlord Zon’ozz – this warlord still serves the chaotic might of the Old God N’Zoth and is ready to crush defenders of the Temple.
- Yor’sahj the Unsleeping – Since the fall fo the Bastion of Twilight, Yor’sahj the Unsleeping has eagerly assisted Deathwing, providing the Destroyer with the means to release more faceless ones from their prisons deep beneath the earth.
- Hagara the Stormbinder – She was ensnared and twisted by the Windlord, Al’Akir. Now fiercely loyal to the Twilight’s Hammer, Hagara binds others for her elemental masters to torment.
The four bosses above belong to the Siege of Wyrmrest Temple stage, while the bosses below are the part of the Fall of Deathwing:
- Ultraxion – Ultraxion is the only twilight dragon Deathwing has praised, and his arrogance is overshadowed only by the crackling energies surging through his twisted form. Loyal to his master, Ultraxion swears to bring the fall of Wyrmrest Temple.
- Warmaster Blackhorn – Led by the insidious Warmaster Blackhorn, Deathwing’s elite drake riders move with unholy purpose, driven to protect their dark master.
- Spine of Deathwing: When Deathwing first channeled the Dragon Soul’s power against the other flights, the massive energies that were unleashed threatened to break apart his very body. Rather than forgo this weapon he had admantium plates fused to his scales to hold his body together. Later reinforced with elementium, these plates are now his weakness—the sole vulnerability to deathwing’s lethal presence.
- Madness of Deathwing: A warped mass of molten hatred and unfathomable power, this formless, mindless horror cannot be stopped. Whatever was left of Neltharion the Earth-Warder is long gone, his mind and soul corrupted and devoured by his Old God masters. All this monstrous being desires is destruction, annihilation, and the end of all things.
