Cataclysm Classic: Rage of the Firelands Update is Now Live; Firelands Raid Opens on 7 November

Calling defenders of Azeroth to brave the inferno and push back against Ragnaros and his wayward loyalists—the Rage of the Firelands update is now live, and the Firelands Raid arrives on 7 November at 23:00 pm GMT.

The Rage of the Firelands content update will burn an indelible mark in Azeroth's history. Take on the new Elemental Bonds questline, and increase the challenges for powerful rewards with the new Elemental Rune Dungeons: Protocol Inferno difficulty option. Then, soon after the update, the legendary Firelands Raid arrives with its Raid tier armor and weapons, two new mounts, Achievements, and seven unique boss encounters.

This will also be the stop for Druid, Mage, Priest, Shaman, or Warlock in their quest to build the legendary staff Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest, a weapon of unsurpassed quality that requires a spectacular effort to construct. Like the Shadowmourne questline in Wrath of the Lich King Classic, adjustments have been made to make Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest, faster to acquire on both 10 and 25-player raid sizes.

More details await you in our previously published article.

Spooky Audio Design from The War Within

Join Sound Designers Michael Hill, Josh Miramontes, and Justin Prymowicz as they reveal their inventive techniques to create the chilling soundscape of World of Warcraft's Azj-Kahet and Hallowfall.

"In World of Warcraft, we're trying to convince you that Azeroth is a real place. Back at WoW's launch, due to technical limitations, you just have this simple stereo loop. Today, we have dozens of sound emitters all around you. There's positional stuff happening everywhere you are that, I think, helps reinforce how real and grounded all of these sounds are. They're not just a file that's playing; it's a soundscape that you're a part of."- Michael Hill
