The World of Warcraft 9.2.5. update will be activated on Tuesday, May 31 on American servers and on Wednesday, June 1 on European servers. Shadowlands’ 9.2 patch 9.2.5, which was announced during the development of “Eternity’s End” and radically changes the World Of Warcraft faction logic , will come with Shadowlands Season 4. With the update, the walls between the Horde and Alliance will come down to cover endgame content. This means that a Horde player can enter Raid, Dungeon, Rated PVP or Torghast with an Alliance friend.
World of Warcraft 9.2.5. update weakens barrier between factions
Alliance and Horde players will need to be added via BattleTag or Real ID or be a member of one of the special in-game communities called “Community” in order to create parties and participate in end-game activities together. The Cross-Faction feature will not cover some special cases, such as Heroic Dungeon.
The new faction system will not completely break down the wall between the Horde and the Alliance, contrary to the expectations of the vast majority of players. Players in the opposing faction will continue to play “we don’t like each other very much” except for end-game activities (even if they are at the same party).
Lead Game Designer Ion Hazzikostas stated that they did not close the door to the Cross-Faction Guild system, one of the most anticipated features, but that it was not technically possible for now. In addition, some old raids and dungeons with exceptions to the Horde and Alliance will also be excluded from this feature. Blizzard’s examples include raids and dungeons such as the Icecrown Citadel, Siege of Boralus, and Trial of the Crusader.
Shadowlands Season 4 will be added to the game towards the end of summer
The 9.2.5 update is also expected to add some mission chains to the game, which will be focused on Azeroth and will throw the first bridge between the Shadowlands and Dragonflight add-on packs. The Dark Iron Dwarf and Blood Elf races will receive special armor sets and cosmetic weapons at the end of their race-specific mission chain.
With patch 9.2.5, what Blizarrd calls “experimental” will be added to Shadowlands Season 4. The new season, whose date is not yet clear, is expected to be added to the game at the end of the summer. With the fourth season of the pack, the game’s Mythic+ dungeon pool will change completely and consist of the following 8 dungeons:
– Tazavesh: Streets of Wonder (Shadowlands)
– Tazavesh: So’leah’s Gambit (Shadowlands)
-Operation Mechagon: Junkyard (Battle for Azeroth)
-Operation Mechagon: Workshop (Battle for Azeroth)
-Return to Karazhan: Lower (Legion)
-Return to Karazhan: Upper (Legion)
– Grimrail Depot (Warlords of Draenor)
-Iron Docks (Warlords of Draenor)
With Season 4, no new raids will be added to the game, but the 3 raids that players enter throughout the Shadowlands – Castle Nathria, Sanctum of Domination and Sepulcher of the First Ones – will alternately be active. The Shadowlands 9.2 Cutting Edge, Ahead of the Curve, and Keystone Master achievements will be available until Season 4 is activated.
