Emberthal and Ebyssian are working together to release the Black dragonflight essence that had been siphoned from the Dracthyr during their long stasis, unlocking memories and powers forgotten to them.

The result of their efforts will be felt by all Dracthyr Evokers as they'll gain access to a brand-new Specialization: Augmentation, available immediately with the release of the Fractures in Time Update!


What is the Augmentation Spec?

Augmentation is a new Damage Dealer role with a twist: they use the essence of the Black and Bronze drag...

Hi all,

We have seen some concerns regarding the difficulty of the Zskarn encounter and wanted share some changes that are planned for after next week’s resets:

The Vigilant Steward, Zskarn

  • Dragonfire Traps now activate consistently based on Zskarn’s location.
  • Elimination Protocol damage reduced by 20%.
  • Elimination Protocol damage amplification reduced to 300% (was 500%).
  • Salvage Parts duration increased to 120 seconds (was 60 seconds).

If any further changes are planned, they’ll be posted about next week. Thank you for your feedback!

Here are this week's highlights:

This doesn’t apply to regular drops, only the legendary, and you aren’t missing out by doing lower difficulties first.

If a character defeats the encounter on Heroic first, then they will have a low chance to get the item and they are covered for the week. Normal and LFR will not offer chances of receiving the item that week.

If a character defeats the encounter on Normal first, they will have a very low chance to get the item. Then for the rest of that week, Heroic will still offer a very low chance at receiving the item, but LFR will not.

Your chances are the same with these three options in a given week:

  • Doing just Heroic
  • Doing Normal then Heroic
  • Doing LFR, then Normal, then Heroic
