Season one’s Mythic+ rotation only includes four new dungeons, while the other four return from WoW’s previous expansions. For the full list of new dungeons added in The War Within, keep reading.
Level-up dungeons
The Rookery
The Rookery is a three-boss dungeon on the Isle of Dorn, the expansion’s first zone. You’ll find the dungeon inside the Earthen racial capital of Dornogal. It has three bosses: Kyrioss, Stormguard Gorren, and the Voidstone Monstrosity.
The Stonevault
The Stonevault is a level-up dungeon in The War Within’s Ringing Deeps zone. There are four bosses: E.D.N.A., Skarmorak, the Forge Speakers, and High Speaker Eirich.
Priory of the Sacred Flame
The Priory of Sacred Flame is another level-up dungeon, located in Harrowfall. Sister Etna Blayze calls upon players to investigate the secrets of the inner sanctum. There are three bosses: Captain Dailcry, Baron Braunpyke, and Prioress Murrpay.
City of Threads
The City of Threads is the Nerubian capital city in Azj-Kahet. It features four bosses: Orator Krix’vizik, Fangs of the Queen, The Coaglamation, and Izo, the Grand Splicer.
Max-level dungeons
Cinderbrew Meadery
The Cinderbrew Meadery is a max-level dungeon added in The War Within. You find it in the east of the Isle of Dorn, near the Meadyard. There are four bosses: Brew Master Aldryr, I’pa, Benk Buzzbee, and Goldie Baronbottom.
Darkflame Cleft
Darkflame Cleft is a four-boss dungeon in the Ringing Deeps. It was once a prosperous mine but now lies abandoned and infested with Kobolds. There are four bosses: Ol’ Waxbeard, Blazikon, The Candle King, and The Darkness.
The Dawnbreaker
The Dawnbreaker is a max-level dungeon you find in Tenir’s Ascent in the Hallowfall zone. It has three bosses: Speaker Shadowcrown, Anub’ikkaj, and Rasha’nan.
Ara-Kara, City of Echoes
Ara-Kara, City of Echoes was called the Old City earlier in development. It features three bosses, Avanoxx, Anub’Zekt, and Ki’katal the Harvester. By the sounds of things, it could be a Nerubian-themed dungeon like Ahn’Kahet in Wrath of the Lich King.
All new raids in WoW The War Within
Nerub’ar Palace
WoW’s new expansion launches with a single raid: Nerub’ar Palace. It’s in Azj’Kahet and has eight bosses. If previous expansions are anything to go by, The War Within will add two more raids over the expansion’s life cycle with an average of eight bosses each.
Here are all eight bosses in Nerub’ar Palace:
- Ulgrax the Devourer
- The Bloodbound Horror
- Sikran
- Rasha’nan
- Eggtender Ovi’nax
- Nexus-Princess Ky’veza
