World of Warcraft Classic's Season of Discovery concludes with its seventh and final phase, launching January 28th. This major update introduces the Karazhan Crypts dungeon, a challenging 5-player instance located beneath the iconic Karazhan tower. Simultaneously, the Scourge Invasions event unleashes waves of undead across Azeroth, offering new quests and rewards at Light's Hope Chapel. Players can collect Necrotic Runes to purchase potent consumables.
A week later, on February 6th, guilds will face the formidable Naxxramas raid. This legendary raid, previously seen in Wrath of the Lich King, returns with a new "Empower" difficulty setting for seasoned veterans seeking an even greater challenge. Conquering Naxxramas' four wings unlocks access to the Frostwyrm Lair and its final bosses, Sapphiron and Kel'thuzad. New runes will also become available from Rune Brokers across Azeroth.
The Shadowy Figure, a mysterious NPC from Phase 6, remains an enigma, with its role in Phase 7 yet to be revealed. While Season of Discovery ends, the future of World of Warcraft Classic's seasonal realms remains exciting and full of potential. Blizzard has yet to announce their plans beyond Phase 7.
Key Features of Phase 7:
- January 28th: Karazhan Crypts dungeon and Scourge Invasions event launch.
- February 6th: Naxxramas raid opens, featuring a new "Empower" difficulty.
- New Runes: Available from Rune Brokers throughout Azeroth.
