• How to farm Ascendant Voidshard fastest in WoW Midnight? Nilhammer Guide & 298 Item Level Upgrade Explained!

  Dear loyal WoW Midnight players, as you all know, if you’ve consistently followed the weekly quests and completed them all on time, you should have finished the final Feeding the Nilhammer quest this week and unlocked Nilhammer.

  As we’ve previously learned, Nilhammer helps you upgrade your gear.

  You can use it on specific slots to further increase your character’s weapon and trinket levels, breaking through the cap. Ultimately, you can reach an item level close to 300, or more precisely, 298.

  All players who completed all the quests will experience a significant power boost this week. However, some players may be struggling with how to farm enough Ascendant Voidshards, especially efficiently to upgrade their item levels.

  The good news is that WoW Midnight recently changed the way you obtain these Ascendant Voidshard. You no longer need to constantly farm Tier 1 Ritual Sites to get them. With the latest changes, you now have a wide variety of options.

  Next, I’ll explain in detail how to properly unlock upgrades, farm Ascendant Voidshard, and what you need to do to maintain your character’s strength.

  Completing Feeding the Nilhammer

  If you want to keep up with the highest item level in WoW Midnight and not fall behind other players, you must ensure you’ve completed Feeding the Nilhammer questline.

  

  As mentioned before, if you’ve been consistently completing Decimus’s weekly quests over the past few weeks, this will be a natural progression.

  If you haven’t completed this questline yet, it may take some time to catch up.

  Don’t worry too much, though; these quests are very simple and can be completed on Normal difficulty. Alternatively, you can choose Normal difficulty raids, which is the fastest method.

  Once you complete all Feeding the Nilhammer quests, you’ll unlock Nilhammer gear upgrade system in WoW Midnight. Completing the new quests Decimus gives afterward will allow all your characters to collect Ascendant Voidshard.

  The Specific Function of Ascendant Voidshard

  To use Ascendant Voidshard to upgrade your item level, you first need to understand how to use it.

  You must consume five Ascendant Voidshards to craft one Ascendant Voidcore, and then consume it to upgrade specific equipment slots.

  Note that one Ascendant Voidcore can increase item level of weapons and trinkets by 6, and not all items can be upgraded. You can upgrade these items:

  • Hero or Myth track weapons and trinkets that have been fully upgraded
  • Maximum quality Radiance Crafted weapons and trinkets

  The effect of these item level increases will be very noticeable, especially for melee classes, where higher item levels significantly improve their strength.

  It will tag your gear with Ascendant Voidforged and increase its maximum item level to an astonishing 298. For crafted items, the maximum item level is 295.

  It's worth noting that regardless of whether your best gear this season reaches the maximum item level of 298, you can upgrade it. Don't be stingy with WoW Midnight gold; the improvements it provides are more important to you.

  Currently, there are no restrictions on acquiring Ascendant Voidshards, so you can first raise their item level to the current maximum.

  Then continue acquiring Ascendant Voidshards to accumulate enough Ascendant Voidcore to ensure you can easily replace your gear with better pieces later.

  How to Quickly Farm Ascendant Voidshards?

  As mentioned earlier, a significant advantage of this version is the lack of upgrade limits. If you wish, you can farm enough Ascendant Voidshards in the next few days to prepare for item level upgrades throughout the remainder of this WoW Midnight season.

  Therefore, your next step is to farm as many Ascendant Voidshards as possible.

  Furthermore, the good news is that, based on extensive player feedback, the official team has modified the acquisition methods for Ascendant Voidshard and increased their drop rates.

  Mythic+

  If you can clear Mythic+ dungeons above level 10, you can reliably obtain Ascendant Voidshard. However, if you are a solo player or find it difficult to consistently clear levels above 10, this method is not recommended, as the drop rate for Mythic+ dungeons below level 10 is very low, making it inefficient.

  Ritual Sites

  While the drop rate for Ritual Sites has been changed, it remains the best way for solo players to obtain Ascendant Voidshard, if you can complete Tier 5 Ritual Sites.

  Mythic Raid and Heroic Raid

  These two methods have similar drop mechanisms; defeating each boss grants one Ascendant Voidshard. Therefore, Heroic Raids are recommended, as Mythic Raids are more difficult but do not offer a higher drop rate.

  Nightmare Prey

  This is one of the best methods because it offers a stable drop rate for Ascendant Voidshards, is relatively quick to complete, and doesn’t present a high level of difficulty. The only downside is the limited number of Nightmare Prey attempts per week, only two.

  Delves

  Similar to Nightmare Prey, Delves offer stable drops and lower difficulty, but the weekly drop rate is limited. Additionally, this method requires a significant number of Coffer Keys.

  Through these methods, you can quickly farm enough materials for upgrades. Therefore, what you need to do now is immediately start farming enough Ascendant Voidcores; it’s definitely worth the effort.

  This will allow you to maintain your character’s strength at the highest level in WoW Midnight for the remainder of this season.

• WoW Midnight Blesses All Tanks with Pure Buffs | Protection Paladin Emerges as the Absolute Juggernaut

  WoW Midnight team issued a lengthy announcement detailing a set of tank specialization adjustments that will go live after the server reset on May 12. These changes, long awaited by the tank community, are all positive enhancements, with no nerfs to Brewmaster Monk or the recently adjusted Guardian Druid.

  The goal of these buffs is to bolster the passive damage mitigation of tank specializations that have been underperforming in high-level Mythic+ dungeons, while also extending the duration and improving the effectiveness of some of their cooldowns, allowing them to better handle heavy damage phases. Let's take a closer look at the specific changes for each specialization.

  

  Blood Death Knight

  Blood Death Knight changes focus primarily on its more random mechanics. Dancing Rune Weapon's parry chance has been increased from 20% to 25%. While this is an improvement, it remains a defensive stat that relies on random triggers, making it an inherently unreliable form of mitigation.

  Rune Weapon empowerment triggered by Dance of Midnight talent now lasts up to 8 seconds, and its proc chance has been increased. This means you'll trigger the effect more often, with a longer duration and more parry mitigation.

  Since Rune Weapon empowerment also acts as an offensive cooldown, the extended duration and higher frequency will boost your damage output as well. However, this still layers random mitigation on top of a random proc, and for a tank spec, such unreliable defensive gameplay doesn't feel ideal.

  Beyond the mechanical adjustments, Blood Death Knight also receives a small increase to stamina and healing. These changes will definitely make the spec feel smoother in Mythic+ dungeons, but they won't suddenly propel it into a dominant position. Therefore, Blood Death Knight players can hold onto their WoW Midnight gold for now and don't need to rush to make specialization adjustments.

  Vengeance Demon Hunter

  Vengeance Demon Hunter gets several passive survivability increases, a relatively steady set of changes.

  Demonic Wards' base damage reduction has been increased from 8% to 12% (a 4% hike), and Thick Skin now boosts stamina by 5%.

  Mastery: Fel Blood's armor bonus has been increased. Since Vengeance Demon Hunter does not actively stack Mastery in the current meta - only picking up incidental amounts from gear - this buff's practical impact is limited.

  Void Reaver now increases the damage reduction provided by Frailty to 5%. In a standard Frailty build, with two stacks, mitigation rises from 8% to 10%.

  Overall, these changes give Vengeance Demon Hunter slightly less than 6% passive, all-type damage reduction, along with some extra stamina. It's definitely a survivability boost that makes you feel a bit sturdier, but again, it won't spark a massive reroll frenzy or push Vengeance Demon Hunter into the mainstream spotlight.

  Protection Paladin

  Protection Paladin is without a doubt the biggest winner of this round. The changes comprehensively boost its baseline durability and on-demand survivability by strengthening passive effects and cooldowns.

  Passive Skills

  • Blessing of Dusk now reduces damage taken by up to 20% (was 10%), scaling with lower health.
  • Sanctified Plates provides an additional 5% stamina bonus.

  Active Skills

  • Ardent Defender's duration has been extended from 8 to 12 seconds, and its damage reduction increased from 20% to 30%. This greatly addresses Protection Paladin's gaps in defensive coverage.
  • Sentinel's duration has been restored from 16 seconds to 20 seconds, matching Avenging Wrath's duration.

  This isn't just a simple 4-second extension. Because you can continuously refresh Sentinel's duration with damaging abilities while it's active, that 4-second base increase actually translates into at least 8 extra seconds of coverage after extensions. The benefit is even more pronounced during high-haste scenarios such as Bloodlust.

  Previously, Sentinel couldn't quite compete because of its shorter duration. Now that it shares the same base duration as Avenging Wrath, its damage reduction, damage, and healing effects can fully shine.

  Combined with Ardent Defender changes, Protection Paladin's defensive cooldown uptime sees a substantial increase. Although opting for Sentinel may result in slightly lower AoE damage compared to before, its damage output remains strong.

  More importantly, Protection Paladin brings unmatched group utility, which has already made it quite popular in Mythic+ dungeons. It's safe to expect that after these changes go live, its representation in high keys will climb significantly.

  Protection Warrior

  Protection Warrior already excels at physical mitigation, so the adjustments aim to shore up its weakness against magic and sustained damage.

  Fight Through Flames now provides 6% damage reduction. The issue is that in Mythic+ settings, this talent competes with options that grant flat armor bonuses or the group interrupt Disrupting Shout, so Fight Through Flames isn't picked very often.

  Phalanx talent now offers 8% damage reduction, up from 5%. This adjustment ties into hero talent tree choices. The current popular approach typically invests only one point in that branch to favor resource generation and maximum health, whereas this improvement encourages spending four points to reach Apex.

  Additionally, Ignore Pain has been buffed by 8%. If you continue using the popular single-point Apex setup, this boost won't be transformative. That said, Protection Warrior's power level is already second only to Brewmaster and Guardian Druid, so it doesn't need massive buffs.

  Overall, Protection Paladin is the standout highlight of these adjustments, and its competitiveness in high-level Mythic+ will noticeably rise. These changes successfully bring tank specs that were previously somewhat weaker up to a level where they can contend with Brewmaster and Guardian Druid, especially in Mythic+ dungeons.

• WoW Midnight Reputation Boost Double-Dip | 50% World Quest Bonus + 10% Darkmoon Faire Buff – Last Chance before Weekly Reset

  Dear players, WoW Midnight events for this week haven't reset yet. We still have time to participate in World Quest Bonus Event, which will increase your reputation gain by 50%. If you're aiming to boost your Midnight reputation, be sure to take advantage of this bonus before the week resets. Let's check out these exciting events!

  Darkmoon Faire

  Darkmoon Island is now open, granting players a 10% reputation and experience boost, which stacks with World Quest bonus.

  Rewards available:

  • Mounts: Darkmoon Zeppelin, Darkmoon Dancing Bear, etc.
  • Transmog: Full Scarlet Crusade set (requires completing island quests to unlock access)
  • Toys, pets, and Heirloom upgrade items

  Additionally, defeating rare mobs like Moon Goddess will drop weapon skins.

  

  It's recommended that players who need to grind reputation or experience first go to Darkmoon Island to get the buff before doing World Quest.

  The next weekly event is Battleground Rewards Week, which will increase Honor Points and Honor Badges earned, making it more suitable for PvP players.

  Limited-Time Rare Mounts

  The current special altar location is Broken Throne in Zul'Aman. The altar difficulty is level 2 or higher, and high item level is not required.

  Void-Corrupted Hex Eagle (Blue Glowing Version)

  First, enter Broken Throne altar, pick up the lost candle on the ground, and then place the candle on the skull in the scene. Click to summon the rare monster, then kill it for a 100% chance of obtaining the mount.

  The original Void-Corrupted Hex Eagle required 5-6 hours of reputation farming, while the current version only takes a few minutes. It also has a blue glowing effect and is much rarer in appearance.

  The mount will drop as long as the altar is active; if you miss it, you'll have to wait several weeks for the next rotation.

  Ancestral War Bear

  Crafting this mount requires 6 Practically Pork. You can obtain Practically Pork by killing wild beasts; it's not difficult and is usually quite cheap.

  Simply find Lost Bear inside the altar, feed it a Practically Pork, and you'll get the pet Chubs. Lost Bear will be marked on the minimap.

  After using it, the pet will be added to your collection. Then, go to another designated location within the altar, summon Chubs to walk around, trigger the rare monster Angry Amani Warbear, and kill it. Finally, use five Practically Porks on the corpse to obtain the mount.

  This mount also has a 100% drop rate and can be obtained in the same altar as the Void-Corrupted Hex Eagle.

  Warbear model is the same as the old Zul'Aman, but the color is brown with a woven pattern.

  Both mounts are only obtainable during Broken Throne altar's activation this week. After the weekly reset, the altar location rotates to Eversong Woods, at which time you can obtain another mount: Void-Touched Snapdragon. If you miss this week's patch, you'll have to wait weeks or even months for the altar to rotate to Zul'Aman again.

  Patch 12.0.7 Preview

  We can glean some details from last week's Patch 12.0.7 release.

  First, Patch 12.0.7 will be themed around the history of trolls, but the specific name has not yet been announced. Also, a new chapter will be unlocked after the patch goes live, connecting to the subsequent 12.1.

  Turbulent Timeways are finally returning in Patch 12.0.7. Void Assault and the new altar area will both be available in the new Midnight area.

  Of course, the patch will also include a large number of new mounts and a new Transmog system, which we can look forward to.

  Developer Controversy and Player Opinions

  Recently, there has actually been some controversy surrounding the game within the community. This cannot be ignored.

  $75 House Decoration Bundle

  This official bundle, priced at $50 for the appearance only and $75 for the complete decoration bundle including indoor and outdoor furniture, is contradictory. The 12.0.5 version was released with numerous bugs and incomplete features, and the developers had just apologized, stating players deserved better. Now, they've immediately launched this high-priced bundle, a move drastically detached from player needs, making it impossible for players to remain silent.

  The bundle is even more expensive than the game itself, and the housing system hasn't yet incorporated enough in-game racial styles, such as human-specific appearances, yet the paid bundle is already included. This inevitably raises the suspicion that developer resources are being used for pure profiteering rather than game improvements.

  

  $1600 Lich King and Invincible Statue

  Targeting hardcore collectors, but public opinion suggests that the official news lately consists of only two things: apologies and overpriced items.

  Diablo 4 Collaboration Set

  Porting Warcraft Tier 2 set style to Diablo 4, available for a limited time.

  Players are questioning why T2 is being sold again when it's already been overused and two more T2-themed versions are planned.

  The weekly reset is just around the corner; if you see a reminder, please complete the quests immediately. Prioritize using the remaining time to acquire the two altar mounts and Darkmoon Faire bonus.

  Also, let's look forward to the development direction of Patch 12.0.7 and hope WoW Midnight can provide a satisfactory explanation to players.

• WoW Midnight Patch 12.0.5 Update Endgame Gear Overhaul | Here's why you should never use it on hero track

  WoW Midnight Patch 12.0.5 was released on North American servers on April 21, with European and other servers updating within the same week. This update brings a wealth of new gameplay and system adjustments, including new open-world events and a new gear catch-up mechanic.

  The patch provides a further boost to character item level, while also adding a catch-up path for those whose gear has fallen a bit behind. Let's take a closer look at what this update actually brings to the table.

  

  Void Forge

  On patch day, before you dive into any other new content, your absolute first step should be completing Void Forge questline located in Voidstorm. This system is designed to raise your item level as swiftly as possible.

  Nebulous Voidcores

  After finishing Void Forge questline, you will receive Nebulous Voidcores. This is a brand-new version of an extra loot mechanic.

  When you complete endgame activities such as Mythic+ dungeons, Bountiful Delves, or Prey Hunts, you may consume one Voidcore to obtain an additional piece of loot from that specific run.

  More importantly, each time you use a Voidcore to acquire an item, that item is temporarily removed from the activity's loot pool for that difficulty. Over time, this means the pool gradually shrinks until you are nearly guaranteed to target the exact piece of gear you want.

  If you use a Voidcore after finishing a Mythic Keystone +10 dungeon, the reward will scale according to your Great Vault item level, which means you also stand a chance to receive Mythic Track gear from it.

  You can trade WoW Midnight gold, sidelight Marl, and Veteran Dawncrests for Nebulous Voidcores, but the number of cores you can obtain and use each week is capped. So do not waste them carelessly.

  It is strongly advised not to use them on Hero Track gear; whenever possible, reserve those opportunities for Mythic Track loot.

  Ascendant Voidcore

  The second part of this system is Ascendant Voidcore, which allows players to upgrade a Hero Track item that has already reached its cap further into Mythic Track. This applies equally to weapons and trinkets, giving top-tier gear even more room to grow.

  Gear Acquisition

  In Patch 12.0.5, Mythic+ dungeons currently yield significantly more Crests than raids. Players have discovered that even if the sole goal is to farm Crests for upgrading raid gear, the most efficient method is simply to run Mythic+.

  Furthermore, Void Forge provides two bonus loot rolls per week; using one in a raid consumes two rolls, whereas using one in a Mythic+ dungeon consumes only a single roll. This means Mythic+ players have three chances each week to obtain Mythic-level items, while Heroic raiders only get two.

  Although some best-in-slot trinkets and weapons remain exclusive to raid drops, when it comes to overall character item level progression, players who focus on Mythic+ have a clear advantage.

  Disrupt Ritual Sites

  

  First, make sure to pick up the introductory quest for the ritual sites in Silvermoon to kick off the whole process. After that, clear all the side quests along the way; their primary purpose is to help you unlock the various Affixes for Ritual Sites.

  When you first enter a Ritual Site location, you will begin with a lower difficulty challenge and no Affixes active. Completing and turning in those basic tasks unlocks Affixes and gradually advances you through the challenge tiers. The entire system rewards Field Accolades. You can use these tokens at the vendor to obtain caches containing Champion or Hero Track gear.

  The higher the challenge difficulty and the more Affixes you activate, the more Accolades you will earn from a single run. Therefore, the core strategy is to tackle the highest difficulty you can handle while activating as many Affixes as possible. Additionally, the random transmog caches from the vendor can also grant Tier 2 Recolored appearances.

  Void Assaults

  Void Assaults are essentially the open-world version of Ritual Sites, offering nearly identical rewards.

  Void Assaults spawn smaller events called Void Strikes in specific zones. These events can be completed solo and take about five minutes each.

  Once enough Void Strikes have been completed within a zone, a Void Incursion begins. This is a large-scale group event that requires server-wide player coordination to finish. Completing it yields substantially better rewards.

  To be honest, if your item level is already above 270 and you possess Heroic or Mythic Track gear, these activities will not contribute much to character power progression. However, they are an excellent option for gearing up alts. Farming them efficiently in a group provides decent experience and, upon reaching max level, lets you quickly exchange accumulated tokens for starter gear, preparing you for raids and Mythic dungeons.

  Abyssal Anglers

  Abyssal Anglers is a purely recreational activity with no impact on character combat power. It primarily rewards transmog appearances, housing decorations, and a currency used for crafting epic-quality profession tools.

  Simply head northeast of Zul'Aman to find the quest NPC and accept the introductory quest to unlock the diving system. The gameplay involves diving underwater and catching as many fish, finding as much treasure, and gathering as many resources as possible before your oxygen runs out. If you complete the associated achievements, you can obtain better diving gear to extend your time underwater, thereby improving your collection efficiency.

  Decor Duel

  Decor Duel is a 7v7 game of hide-and-seek from which you can earn transmog items, toys, and decorative rewards. While it is a limited-time event, the developers have confirmed that the repeatable decorative rewards will be made available through other means in the future.

  Transmogrification

  Beyond the new sheathed weapon stance adjustment, the transmog system has introduced more automation and context-sensitive features.

  The new outfit command added in Patch 12.0.5 allows players to bind transmog sets to macros, letting you swap entire outfits with a single keypress without opening the interface.

  Additionally, transmog sets can now be tied to weather and time conditions. You can configure different appearances to switch automatically between day and night, or even trigger specific cosmetic ensembles when it begins to rain or snow in-game.

  That covers most of what Patch 12.0.5 has to offer. If your goal is to strengthen your character, your best course of action is to prioritize completing Void Forge questline first.

• WoW Midnight weekly guide: Conquer Dungeon Event and unlock Darkmoon Faire Event rewards before time runs out

  The week is already halfway over, but the plethora of events in World of Warcraft this week continues unabated. With so many activities available, you might be overwhelmed. Let IGGM help you sort things out.

  This guide will primarily introduce you to the highly anticipated Midnight Dungeon Event and Darkmoon Faire Event, both of which are so exciting you won't want to miss them. The different challenges and amazing prizes will keep you entertained.

  We've included more details about WoW Midnight event and tips on how to effectively avoid traps, making us IGGM's top priority to be your helpful companion on your adventure. Feel free to read the following content.

  Midnight Dungeon Event

  Midnight Dungeon Event officially begins at 8:00 AM on April 7th and ends at the same time one week later, at 7:00 AM on April 14th. Seize the opportunity to acquire your Hero Gear. If you've been hoping for the 259 ilvl Hero Gear, then this week is not to be missed.

  During the event, your main objective is to defeat the final boss and claim the rewards. IGGM reminds you that you'll need to use all the different characters involved. It's worth mentioning that if you choose Normal, Eric, or Mythic zero difficulty for your dungeon quest, one member of your party will receive a piece of gear that falls from the sky.

  When the event begins, find Archmage Aethas Sunreaver in Silvermoon, successfully accept Emissary of War mission, and you can start your journey. Of course, you can also choose to enable it in Dungeon Journal.

  The weekly tasks will motivate you to complete the four Mythic Dungeons, setting high standards for you while often revealing the generous rewards for them. IGGM will reveal it in advance: Cache of Quel'Thalas Treasures, containing non-tier gear from Heroic Season 1 Raids.

  Continuing with the dungeon content, this week's dungeons also include some new content. LFR version of March on Quel'Danas is no longer restricted, and you can enter it once it's available. The story mode will also be available at the same time. This will speed up your completion of Midnight storyline. If you clear the game on your own, Frigid Hearthstone will be yours.

  Note that if you obtain Sign of the Warrior buff within a week and receive additional rewards from defeating the final bosses of Mythic, Heroic, and Normal dungeons, then Mythic+ Dungeons will no longer grant you any extra loot.

  If you just want to complete the game quickly, base Mythic Dungeons is recommended as your first choice. However, Mythic+ Dungeons will still not be removed from your quest progress. To be on the safe side, your best strategy is to take the treasure chest as soon as you finish stockpiling your warehouse each week.

  After successfully completing the tasks, you will receive gear from the different raids, and if you're lucky, a cash reward may also quietly appear. For example, extremely rare loot will drop in Voidspire Raid and March on Quel'Danas raid, making them well worth the effort. In terms of difficulty, it's a piece of cake for you.

  If you want to avoid wasting too much energy on complex tasks, get your desired loot quickly and directly, and aren't entirely satisfied with the items presented to you, buy WoW Midnight Gold from IGGM.com to obtain more high-quality and rare items. Plus, a 5%-8% discount is already prepared for you.

  Darkmoon Faire Event

  Don't miss another event this week: Darkmoon Faire Event. Upon arrival on the island, a series of different activities have been waiting for you; let's complete them one by one with great enthusiasm. You'll get Massive Buffs you deserve. You'll be rewarded with Massive Buffs. Take action to boost your Reputation and Experience gains. Massive Buffs will increase both by 10%.

  However, IGGM reminds you that this is unrelated to Reputations from Midnight. So, even if you put in consistent effort to increase Reputation from the start, you might still not get what you deserve. Don't be discouraged; Don't be discouraged, don't miss out on the 10% bonus.

  In addition to participating in the main storyline events, there are even more rewards waiting for you to trigger. Defeating Death Metal Knights or rare Witches on the island will reward you with cool items, such as Maces.

  For skin options, there are various Cosmetic Head Armors available. If you still feel something is missing, head over to the vendor section, where you'll find Scarlet outfits that might interest you. Feel free to shop to your heart's content. The island's scenery, culture, and a high degree of freedom of movement are all worth enjoying.

  With the detailed explanation above, we believe you now have a clear plan for this week's activities and your own personalized strategy. This guide is dedicated to helping you bravely engage in various activities, and we will accompany you throughout your WoW Midnight journey.

• WoW Midnight Season 1 Voidspire Raid is fully open! How to get Gear and Tier Set Tokens before the next update?

  If you are the type of player who prefers to wait until a dungeon or raid is fully released before diving in, then now is the perfect time to experience the raids of WoW Midnight Season 1!

  This is because, among the season's three raids, Dreamrift opened on March 17th; March on Quel'Danas is scheduled for April 7th; while Voidspire was released in segments on March 17th, 24th, and 31st.

  In other words, you can now play through the entirety of both Dreamrift and Voidspire. If you progress quickly enough, you'll be perfectly poised to jump into March on Quel'Danas when it launches just one week from now!

  With that in mind, this guide focuses on Voidspire raid, a challenge you can tackle immediately, offering a wealth of content to explore. If you're interested, be sure to read through to the very end!

  

  Voidspire raid overview

  This raid is located within Voidstorm zone and requires your character to reach Level 90 before you can enter. Throughout the challenge, you will encounter six bosses. The available difficulty options for the raid include Raid Finder, Normal, Heroic, Story Mode, and Mythic.

  Not all difficulty levels and raid sections were released simultaneously, they were rolled out in phases throughout the month of March:

  • March 17: Raid Finder Wing 1, Normal, Heroic
  • March 24: Raid Finder Wing 2, Story Mode, Mythic
  • March 31: Raid Finder Wing 3

  However, since it is now April, you are free to attempt any difficulty level that your capabilities allow. Furthermore, aside from the level requirement, there are no other prerequisites for entering this raid; simply travel to /way 2405 45.5 64.4 to find the entrance.

  Defeating any boss within the raid awards WoW Midnight gold as a baseline reward; however, the quality of other loot drops, such as gear, will vary depending on the difficulty level of the boss defeated.

  Tier 1 Boss: Imperator Averzian

  The six bosses in Voidspire raid can be broadly categorized into four tiers based on their difficulty, with higher tiers yielding items of a higher item level.

  Among these, Imperator Averzian is the sole boss in Tier 1. At the start of the encounter, he utilizes an ability called Shadow's Advance to gradually encroach upon and claim areas of the battlefield.

  If a section of the arena falls under Void Claimed status as a result, it becomes permanently lost and cannot be reclaimed.

  Building upon this, if the boss successfully captures three adjacent zones in succession, he will proceed to cast March of the Endless. Furthermore, Dark Tears will manifest above the captured zones, from which the boss's minions will pour forth.

  Compounding the challenge, as the battle progresses, the rifts will gradually expand, and the enemies summoned from them will become increasingly formidable.

  Consequently, the key to defeating this boss lies in maintaining strict control over him right from the very start of the encounter.

  If you opt for a higher raid difficulty setting, certain abilities, including those of Averzian and other bosses, will gain additional effects or become significantly more potent; therefore, you must choose your difficulty level with extreme caution.

  Tier 2 Bosses: Vorasius and Fallen-King Salhadaar

  Vorasius

  This boss's primary method of attack involves utilizing his massive arms to cast Smashing Frenzy, thereby generating Void Crystal barriers across the battlefield.

  Subsequently, he casts Aftershock, dealing damage to the player party in the form of outward-expanding ripple waves.

  If you are struck by Smashing Frenzy, you will be afflicted with Smashed debuff. Conversely, if no players are struck, the entire raid group will suffer massive damage.

  Fallen-King Salhadaar

  Once the battle begins, several mechanical devices will appear within the arena; the boss can draw energy charges from these devices. When his energy reaches 100 points, Vorasius will begin casting Cosmic Unraveling.

  During this phase, the mechanical devices will continuously generate Orbs of Concentrated Void; Salhadaar will periodically draw these orbs toward himself and cast Reckless Infusion.

  If you destroy these orbs prematurely, doing so will inflict Galactic Miasma debuff upon all players. Furthermore, while Cosmic Unraveling is active, Uncontainable Cosmos contained within the boss will erupt, unleashing Cosmic Barrage.

  Tier 3 Bosses: Vaelgor & Ezzorak and Lightblinded Vanguard

  Vaelgor & Ezzorak

  This encounter effectively features two co-bosses, a brother and sister duo. Initially, they will alternate between aerial and ground combat, swapping positions by casting Midnight Flames; ultimately, they will join forces on the ground to launch a combined, all-out assault.

  Notably, during this battle, you will be aided by Lightbound Vanguard as allies; they are capable of providing a Radiant Barrier, serving as a protective sanctuary, to nearby players.

  If a player makes direct contact with an enemy during combat, they will be afflicted with Gloomtouched. Additionally, enemies will utilize Nullbeam to create a Nullzone and establish a link with a player; if you stretch this link too far, it will trigger a Nullsnap or Nullzone Implosion.

  Lightblinded Vanguard

  This encounter consists of a combination of multiple mini-bosses: Lightblood, Bellamy, and Senn, all of whom are members of Lightblinded Vanguard.

  At the start of the battle, each boss begins with full energy and grants a buff to their two allies:

  • Lightblood: While at full health, Lightblood activates Aura of Wrath, increasing Holy damage dealt by all allies within a 40-yard radius by 100%, while simultaneously inflicting 20 damage per second to any players standing within that area.
  • Senn: If you attack any other enemy while under the effects of Aura of Peace, you will be afflicted with a Pacify effect.
  • Bellamy: After you are struck by Divine Toll, Bellamy applies a lingering Silence effect to you.

  Tier 4 Boss: Crown of the Cosmos

  In this ultimate boss encounter within Voidspire raid, the true adversary you face is Alleria Windrunner.

  She launches periodic attacks, utilizing Void-based effects and Silverstrike Arrow to strike indiscriminately at both allies and enemies alike.

  During this phase, Undying Sentinels will appear on the battlefield to engage and contain the boss; however, once all the sentinels have been eliminated, the boss will lunge onto the platform and create a Rift Simulacrum.

  This simulacrum will utilize Call of the Void and Ranger General's Mark to attack you and your party. You can destroy the simulacrum, but doing so will trigger the boss to unleash an even more intense barrage of void attacks.

  Available rewards

  Based on the boss tier and raid difficulty, the item levels for both fixed rewards and random drops you can obtain are as follows:

  Tier 1 Boss:

  • LFR: 233
  • Normal: 246
  • Heroic: 259
  • Mythic: 272
  • Crest Dropped: Veteran Dawncrest
