Go Inside Season of Discovery Phase 2

news.blizzard.com:

Sit down with World of Warcraft Classic team designers to explore more of what Season of Discovery Phase 2 has in store for you. We will take you through new raid information, dungeon, Rune ability, PvP, and profession updates, and more.

With this preview we want to take a moment to get ahead of the PTR since, like the previous Classic PTR, the content for Season of Discovery Phase 2 will not actually be available to play. We also want to help assuage any incorrect assumptions from any datamining that may occur as the PTR also holds some data that could be misleading, is experimental, is meant for later phases, or even are items that did not make the cut.

Please note that all examples are works in progress and may not reflect the final stats.

Join the WoW Classic development team members: Game Producer Linny Cooke Saverline, Assistant Lead Designer Tim Jones, Lead Software Engineer Nora Valletta, Lead Software Engineer Ana Resendez, and Senior Game Producer Josh Greenfield to learn more.

Location: Dun Morogh
Level: 40
Raid Size: 10
Bosses: 6

Much like Black Fathom Deeps in Phase 2, Gnomeregan will be a 10-player raid dungeon consisting of six bosses–which includes one additional new boss. Each of the previous five bosses have been redesigned to present new challenges within the raid dungeon. This dungeon will also introduce a new world buff.

There will be a variety of new items and rewards with even more epic rewards from additional sources beyond the last two bosses of the dungeon. There will also be new class sets to acquire and quests and rewards adjusted for level 40 players.

Players will also be able to undertake a new profession quest chain leading to new materials players can use to craft more powerful items.

As a compromise for both leading edge players and more casual players, the raid dungeon will become available with the launch of Season of Discovery Phase 2, but there will be two lockouts on the normal weekly lockout timer at the start of the phase. This
