Nachdem die sechste Phase der Saison der Entdeckung bereits einige Wochen lang auf dem PTR von WoW Classic verfügbar war, enthüllten die Entwickler gestern Abend nun auch endlich den offiziellen Starttermin für diese neuen Inhalte. Der gestern erfolgten Ankündigung zufolge wird die Phase 6 von SoD offiziell am 21. November 2024 auf den klassischen Spielservern von WoW beginnen. Da Blizzard auch dieses Mal wieder einen globalen Release für die Phase anstrebt, erhalten Spieler in Deutschland ab 21:00 Uhr den Zugang zu der Phase.
Am 21. November werden die Kriegsanstrengungen für Ahn’Qiraj beginnen und bis zum 29. November aktiv sein. Am 04. Dezember werden dann die Streitkräfte der Anubisath und der Quraji aus AQ hervorbrechen und am 06. Dezember schalten die Entwickler den Tempel von Ahn’Qiraj (20 Spieler+) und die Ruinen von Ahn’Qiraj (10 Spieler+) als Schlachtzüge frei. Zusätzlich dazu sind ab diesem Datum auch noch die Drachen des Alptraums als Weltbosse aktiv, die von Spielern ebenfalls eine eigene Instanz erhalten haben. Die Instanzeingänge befinden sich dort, wo normalerweise die Drachen spawnen würden.
Der vielleicht wichtigste Termin aus Phase 6 ist allerdings der noch früher liegende 12. November. An diesem Tag werden die Entwickler nämlich die Questreihe rund um das Szepter der Sandstürme in der Saison der Entdeckung freischalten. Diese enorm umfangreiche Questreihe erlaubt es Spielern die Tore von Ahn’Qiraj zu öffnen und das eigentliche Event abzuschließen. Wer diese Aufgabe zwischen dem 04. und 06. Dezember um 21:00 Uhr beendet, der erhält die extrem begehrte Schwarze Qirajipanzerdrohne als Reittier.
Rally Your Forces for Season of Discovery Phase 6 on November 21
Face your fears when you gather your allies to confront the Old God, C’thun in Ahn’Qiraj and the Dragons of Nightmare in the Nightmare Grove, plus more in Season of Discovery Phase 6.
Before you go charging into Ahn’Qiraj, you’ll need to begin your journey with the „Scepter of the Shifting Sands“ questline which begins ahead of the phase on November 12 with regional resets.
Here’s what you can look forward to in the weeks to come:
- November 12: Scepter of the Shifting Sands questline opens with regional resets.
- November 21: Ahn’Qiraj War Effort begins at 1:00 pm PST globally.
- November 29: The War Effort ends.
- December 4: The war heralding the arrival of Anubisath and the qiraji warriors begins.
- December 6: Temple of Ahn’Qiraj, Ruins of Ahn’Qiraj, and Nightmare Grove Open.
Bang a Gong!
Players can begin a quest series to create the Scepter of the Sands, which will enable them to ultimately ring the gong on the realm they are on. Players who complete the quest between 1:00 pm PST on December 4 and 1:00 pm PST on December 6 will receive the Black Qiraji Resonating Crystal, which will summon a ridable Qiraji battle tank that can be used in the outdoor world as well as within the Temple of Ahn’Qiraj.
Join the War Effort
Supply the war effort against the sinister forces of Ahn’Qiraj. Both Horde and the Alliance can bring a steady stream of supplies to the Valley of Spirits in Orgrimmar or to the Military Ward in Ironforge to turn-in for Ahn’Qiraj War Effort Supplies containing useful items and Alliance Commendation Signets or Horde Commendation Signets, which can be used to gain reputation with your faction.
While many of the necessary supplies can be obtained as loot drops or purchased from the Auction House, having a profession that helps you acquire these supplies will also come in handy. Here is a list of items you’ll need to set your sights on collecting.
Players can continue to contribute materials to gain Commendation Signets even after the War Effort ends.
Pushing Back the Enemy
Join the battle to push back the Anubisath and Qiraji warriors, which can be found in the Barrens and Thousand Needles (for lower-level players) and Silithus, Tanaris, and Feralas (for higher-level players). Defending against these incursions will give players a chance to earn gold, experience, and reputation with the Brood of Nozdormu, along with a higher chance for rare drops.
Opening of the Gates
Players will need to decide how far they want to push their luck to earn the greatest reward with a new system. After each boss, they’ll need to make a choice between cashing in their rewards or enabling more challenging mechanics and trying for better loot. You’ll need to balance the risk and the reward against each other as too many deaths in the raid could mean your team earns nothing at all.
Ruins of Ahn’Qiraj
The Ruins of Ahn’Qiraj is an outdoor 10+ player raid dungeon located in Silithus, and players can traverse much of it while mounted.

Temple of Ahn’Qiraj
Dark whispers ride on the winds of Silithus desert. An old god stirs in his wretched lair, and the entire world shall soon be the target of his wrath. After thousands of years of slumber, the Old God, C’Thun has awakened and is quickly regenerating his power. Once he has reached full potential nothing will be able to stop him. The dragons that so humbly sacrificed themselves long ago to imprison C’Thun are weakened or enslaved in the temple, so the charge of protecting the land falls to other heroes.
Heroes must enter Temple of Ahn’Qiraj, challenge C’Thun’s most wicked servants, and slay a god. The road will not be easy, and it is wrought with peril at every turn. Will the heroes turn back now or face C’Thun in his mighty lair and put an end to him once and for all?
