A level-60 world with a zone that keeps growing.

Six new starting stories, Pale Reach, hidden gear, and a casino island.

THE WORLD

How it works

  1. Begin in a zone with a new story.

    Six starting zones have new storylines: Deathknell, the Valley of Trials, Northshire, Coldridge, Shadowglen and Camp Narache.

  2. Level with scaling.

    Group with friends of any level. Each of you fights at your own scaled level, and everyone earns XP for the kill.

  3. Take the daily boards.

    Callboards in the cities post quests: Zone Contracts while you level, and a daily board of PvE, PvP and profession quests at 60.

  4. Go north to Pale Reach.

    New areas keep opening, with their own quests, flight masters and reputations.

  5. Hunt Worldforged gear.

    It lies hidden in the world: click to loot it, one copy each. The Keeper of Worldforged Relics in Orgrimmar, Stormwind and Booty Bay raises it from item level 60 to 88.

THE CONQUEST CASINO

An island casino, played in gold.

Tables run on the island: Blackjack, Roulette, Sic Bo and Quick Dice, Perudo, Slots with the Conquest Jackpot, deathroll tables and tournaments, and the Wheel of Fortune (25 chips a spin, and it can pay a mount, a pet or a toy).

Also live: a Daily Lottery, a weekly Hall of Fame, Happy Hour events, and casino standing with titles.

House rules: cheating at the tables earns a 30-minute casino ban on that character.

Chips cost 1 gold each. Chips and gold have no real-world value.

COMING More Stones of Retreat, and weekend tournaments at the Gurubashi Arena. See the roadmap
