  2. Greetings, everyone! Our first major content arrives: Season 2 - Embers of Neltharion! Patch 10.1.0 will be released on May 27th 2024! NEW ZONE: ZARALEK CAVERN Zaralek Cavern is a new underground zone in the Ohn’ahran Plains. Accessible through a network of tunnels, this zone continues the Campaign questline and introduces new World Quests, rare encounters, and two World Bosses: Vakan and Gholna. Meet the Niffen faction and revisit the Drogbar. New Dragonriding mount obtained through the Campaign. To access Zaralek Cavern, complete the “News From Beneath" or "The Land Beneath" quests. Look for entrances within the chasm between Valdrakken and Ohn’ahran Plains on your map, and ensure your drake is well-rested for the journey ahead! NEW RAID: ABERRUS, THE SHADOWED CRUCIBLE Millennia ago, Neltharion carved deep chasms in the earth where he conducted experiments. After his death, these sites were lost to time, but forces hungry for power now seek to claim Deathwing’s legacy. A new raid comes with Embers of Neltharion. Gather your allies and breach Deathwing’s secret laboratory hidden within Zaralek Cavern. Here, he created the Dracthyr and ultimately fell to the whispers of the Old Gods and their corruption. In Aberrus you will encounter 9 bosses, culminating with Scalecommander Sarkareth as the final boss. Aberrus will be fully available on LFR, Normal and Heroic; Mythic will be released shortly after. Class Tier Sets will drop in Aberrus, the Shadowed Crucible. Each Tier Set has a unique dragon theme. SEASON 2 DRAGONFLIGHT SEASON 2 - Mythic+ Dragonflight Season 2 has a brand new dungeon pool and includes 2 dungeons from Battle for Azeroth, 1 from Legion, and 1 from Cataclysm: Brackenhide Hollow (Dragonflight) Halls of Infusion (Dragonflight) Uldaman, Legacy of Tyr (Dragonflight) Neltharus (Dragonflight) Freehold (Battle for Azeroth) The Underrot (Battle for Azeroth) Neltharion’s Lair (Legion) Vortex Pinnacle (Cataclysm) For Season 2 there will be no Seasonal affix, but new affixes will include: Incorporeal, Afflicted and Entangling. DRAGONFLIGHT SEASON 2 - PvP (Obsidian Gladiator) Season 2 brings lots of changes to PvP such as new crafted gear, changes to PvP Talents, CC, new cosmetics and epic titles. The item level cap has been increased. Trophy of Strife and Bloody Tokens are being reset with the launch of Season 2. Season 2 is also adding a brand new item to turn any Epic Quality piece of gear into a PvP item. These Optional Reagents can be purchased with Honor or Conquest and will increase the item's PvP item level. With this occasion, our current Season 1 will end. EVOKER LEGENDARY WEAPON - NASZ'URO, THE UNBOUND LEGACY Dracthyr Evokers can obtain a 457 ilvl Legendary weapon in Patch 10.1 by completing various tasks and activities such as Aberrus, epic questlines, crafting reagents. Seek out Scalecommander Sarkareth in the Aberrus raid. Defeat him to obtain the Cracked Titan Gem—a key to unlocking Nasz’uro’s potential. UNIVERSAL UPGRADE SYSTEM Patch 10.1 introduced a new universal gear upgrade system to WoW. This system revolves around collecting Flightstones and Crests, allowing gear obtained in the current Dragonflight season to be upgraded. Gear from Open World, Mythic+, Raid, and PvP can be upgraded using this system. Flightstones are obtained from a multitude of activities. From completing events in open zones like the Zaralek Caverns, to completing Mythic+ dungeons, to killing raid bosses, or any current Season activity. Awakened Crests can be obtained mainly from defeating raid bosses, completing higher-level Mythic+ dungeons, and Rated PvP. A limited amount can also be obtained from open-world activities. NEW FACTION: LOAMM NIFFEN Along with the Drogbar that you may remember from Legion, Zaralek Cavern is home to the Loamm Niffen. The Niffen offers new Renown, quests, and a new exploration mini-game, Sniffenseek digs. Sniffenseek digs are approximately 5 minutes in length and involve exploring secret caves via a puzzle mechanic that involves “stealthin', sniffin’, diggin’, or usin' logic”. In Zaralek Cavern, every scent tells a story, every puzzle conceals a clue. Sniff, dig, and solve the puzzles of the Loamm Niffen to obtain pets, mounts and cosmetics from this faction. NEW ACTIVITIES Fyrakk Assaults Fyrakk is after the resources in the Azure Span and Ohn’ahran Plains. Attack Suffusion Camps and disrupt his forces to lure him and his followers into the open. Researchers Under Fire A set of two timed scenarios inside Zaralek Cavern where you can aid the researchers in overcoming powerful enemies for escalating rewards based on completed objectives. Dragonriding New Traits: Ground Skimming and Land's Blessing. Eight new Dragonriding Glyphs in Zaralek Caverns. New races and world quests in Zarelek Cavern A new Dragonriding mount, the Winding Slitherdrake, available through the continuing campaign questline. Side Quests Keeper of the Ossuary, a huge questline featuring the restoration of the blue dragonflight. BORIS RETURNS Yep! Your favorite Tauren is back to get you well prepared for your next big adventure! In case you two are not best friends yet, Boris is the go-to when you want a quick Level 60 Boost, some gear to help you along the way, and other amazing perks. But you must be wise with your choices! Boris can only help a single character on your account.
  3. Following 4 weeks of open PTR, where a lot of people were able to preview the 8.2.0 client update, we're now shipping it to our live BFA realm, Sethraliss! This will take place on Monday, November 18th! The realm will be shut down for a short period of time while we update it, but do not worry, we will keep you posted on Discord, Facebook and Twitter so as soon as it's back up and updated, you are notified. We would also like to thank everyone who took the time to write reports on the PTR 8.2 bugtracker, as those helped us improve the quality of the release, so really, thank you! HOW TO DOWNLOAD / UPDATE TO 8.2.0 CLIENT: Whether you already have an 8.0 client or not, everything is detailed in this quick & easy tutorial we've made for you! BORIS Boris is back on Firestorm! From Friday, 22nd November 4PM until Tuesday 26th November 10AM server time, Boris will be available in all capitals & starting zones on all of our realms! Speaking with him will allow you, once per account and per expansion, to get a free boost to the max lvl (110 on BFA instead), fully geared and ready to start exploring the continents, and discovering the content! NEW CONTENT As we said before, even though our client is updated straight to 8.2 (for practical reasons), we wish to follow the retail order of content release, which means 8.1 patch content first! This post is here to guide you through our different content, namely: 8.1 War Campaign Darkshore open world zone Mythic+ & PVP Season 2 Battle of Dazar'Alor Raid Faction Assaults Below you will find more details about each of those main features. WAR CAMPAIGN Continue what you started on the 8.0 War Campaign! For the Horde, it's all about crippling the Alliance, and it will take you up to the raid Battle of Dazar'Alor! More info is available here For the Alliance, the objective is to set everything up for the attack on the Zandalari capital, and to defeat King Rastakhan! More info is available here The 8.1 part of the War Campaign will be fully scripted, up until your involvements in the Battle of Dazar'Alor! DARKSHORE Darkshore is to the 8.1 patch what Arathi Highlands were to the 8.0, so you can expect to find the same kind of content available here; It's a whole new zone filled with special World Quests, and rare mobs that can reward equipments, mounts, toys or pets. The whole zone will be controlled by one faction, switching every week: while your faction holds the reins, you will get access to world quests in the area, and to the corresponding world boss: Ivus the Forest Lord for the Horde, and Ivus the Decayed for the Alliance. You can find more information about Darkshore here: here Please note that like Arathi Highlands, the Warfront won't be available. MYTHIC+ & PVP SEASON 2 The season 2 of Mythic+ and PvP will begin on Wednesday, 20th November at 12PM (noon server time). in PVP, the Sinister Gladiator season will begin, with updated rewards! To get more info, you can check this link. You will also find the same "conquest" system that was there in BFA's season 1, but with more flexibility in the rewards to help you get the gear you need. They will be following this table: in Mythic+, the seasonal affix will now be Reaping (instead of Infested for the season 1). This special affix will revive all defeated monsters at certain dungeon completion %, meaning you will need to defeat them twice! With this season, a new currency is added: Titan Residuum that can be spent to buy Azerite Armor. For more details on the Season 2, you can click here. The rewards will also be updated, and will follow this table: (please note that the chest generated on the 20th November week will still be a 'season 1' chest and won't fall into this table) BATTLE OF DAZAR'ALOR The second Raid of the expansion, involving Jaina Proudmoore and the Alliance's invasion of Dazar'Alor, the Zandalari capital! What makes this raid special is the fact that your faction will be changed during certain fights, to reflect on each faction's story during the attack. Unlike Uldir, we chose to release the raid wing by wing. So, starting Wednesday 20th November at 12PM (noon server time) you will be able to get in BoD to fight the first 3 bosses: Champions of the Light Grong Jadefire Masters. They will be available in LFR, NM and HM difficulties. If you're looking for a guide of BoD as a whole, here it is! We plan on releasing a new wing every 3-4 weeks, and the full Mythic mode 3-4 weeks after the third and final wing is released (basically a similar schedule to what we had for Tomb of Sargeras or Antorus on Legion). This will allow for a better release schedule and rhythm, without reducing too much ladder competitivity. NEW ALLIED RACES Two new allied races will be available right away, without any requirements: Kul Tiran Humans for the Alliance Zandalari Trolls for the Horde Each of them has its own racial spells, so be sure to check their guide to get the best out of them! ASSAULTS Similar to the Legion Invasions, following a rotation some BFA zones will get invaded by either the Horde or the Alliance. Depending on the zone and your faction, you will either act as an invader, or a defender and will get access to specific world quests: once you've completed 4 of them, you will unlock a quest asking you to do one last effort to help your faction, which will reward you with gear, war resources, ap and reputations. For more information, you can read this guide. This is it, our 8.2.0 client update, including a lot of new content for everyone to discover! As explained before, we will be releasing all contents in retail order: you can thus expect the rest of BoD first, then the 8.1.5 War Campaign alongside the 3rd raid, Crucible of Storms, and finally 8.2 content (Nazjatar & Mechagon, alongside the 4th raid, Azshara's Eternal Palace). On a side note, Island Expeditions are nearly done! We know you teased them a while ago, but several unpredictable events delayed their release: rest assured, we haven't given up on them! you can expect 6-7 different islands to be released in the near future, probably alongside the release of one of BoD's wings. The Bugtracker of Sethraliss will also be wiped (since we're upgrading the client, and a lot of changes occurred, old reports might have lost their meaning). It will also be the chance to upgrade its system, to avoid duplicates: Starting Monday 18th, when you'll report an achievement, item, quest or NPC, you will need to give its id (easily findable in its wowhead URL link). This will allow us to post your new report as a comment of an already existing one, if there is. That way, all the information about 1 issue will be given on 1 post, which will be better for players & developers alike. Thanks for your patience, we will be monitoring the update closely to address any issue that arises! See you on Monday! The Firestorm Team
  4. As we announced during our latest Q&A (you can find the transcript here) we're gonna open a test realm accessible to everyone in order to test the stability and get feedback on our 8.2 client: the PTR 8.2 will open on Monday, October 21st. All of the characters from Sethraliss will be copied on it so you can continue your adventure right where you left it! The goal of this PTR is to make sure that the true release of the 8.2 client will be as smooth as possible: everything that works currently on Sethraliss should work after the update, and new content, alongside reworked features will need 'real condition' testing to make sure they are fully operational for the release, that is expected after 3 to 4 weeks of open PTR. A whole new section will be available on the Bugtracker for you to report issues you encounter on the PTR. Our Quality Assurance team will then take care of those reports and give them to our developers who will then be able to fix them. HOW TO DOWNLOAD 8.2 CLIENT: To log on the PTR 8.2, the only thing you need will be the FS 8.2 client: fear not, as we've made this as easy as possible for you! Here is how you'll get access: Download the 8.2 .exe here: http://fstorm.cc/82-Download (it is compressed in a .rar) Open your FS BFA client folder, where your current .exe is located, place the .rar you just downloaded there, and extract it. That's it! With the same client folder you will now have 2 different .exe: the one to access Sethraliss (8.0) and the new one to access the 8.2 PTR Please note: The first time you will open the 8.2 client, it will take a bit of time (between 2-5 minutes) to download the missing files, but in the meantime nothing will appear on your screen, that's normal ! Do not open it 43 times, just once and then wait a bit. Once it's done, you will be fully set up! Now that you know when the PTR will be available, and how you will be able to connect, let's see what you will be able to discover on it! NEW CONTENT As we said before, even though our client is updated straight to 8.2 (for practical reasons), we wish to follow the retail order of content release, which means 8.1 patch content first!

Same as always, feedback is greatly appreciated here! BATTLE OF DAZAR'ALOR The second Raid of the expansion, involving Jaina Proudmoore and the Alliance's invasion of Dazar'Alor, the Zandalari capital! What makes this raid special is the fact that your faction will be changed during certain fights, to reflect on each faction's story during the attack. On PTR, the first 2 Horde bosses will be available for both factions: Champions of the Light & Grong. The 3rd one, Jadefire Masters will be released on the PTR later, and will be available on Sethraliss when the update gets shipped. They will be available in LFR, NM and HM difficulties. If you're looking for a guide of BoD, here it is! Aaaand, you know the drill, feedback will be valuable on BoD too, so here is the link of the bugtracker again.

For more information, you can read this guide. We are excited to bring all of those content to you guys, and hope you are eager to discover it as well! We cannot stress this enough, your feedback will be of great importance to make sure that when all of those content are shipped on Sethraliss, everything will be as good as possible! So tell your friends, download the .exe, log on the PTR starting Monday, 21st October and write reports about the issues you encounter on the bugtracker.
