WoW Cataclysm Classic: What We Know So Far About The Upcoming Changes In Phase 2? - New Raids, Mounts And More

Posted: Jul 25, 2024

Recently, the developers finally announced the release date of WoW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2 and some very interesting changes that will come with it.

Phase 2 will launch on July 30, 2024, and players will have the opportunity to tackle some familiar, troll-filled raids in a whole new way. Although the full details of Phase 2 update have not been announced so far, it is expected that players will not have to wait too long to challenge the powerful Troll hordes on Classic Era Server.

In this guide, we will talk about some of the new content that we know so far about what will be introduced in Phase 2. Without further ado, let’s get straight to it!

WoW Cataclysm Classic: What We Know So Far About The Upcoming Changes In Phase 2? - New Raids, Mounts And More

Troll Empires

Troll Empires are the oldest civilizations in Azeroth. They have long been divided, but Zandalari tribe has now decided to bring all Empires together.

In Rise of the Zandalari, we’ll learn more about the different Troll tribes and see what United Empires will eventually look like.

Reworked Troll-Themed Raids

As we learn more about the unity of Troll tribes, we’ve learned that they’ve reclaimed former Troll Strongholds: Zul’Gurub and Zul’aman.

As we all know, WoW Cataclysm Phase 1 introduced three familiar raids, and Phase 2 will bring similar content. Phase 2 will bring these two reworked Troll-themed raids to the open world in a way that players have never experienced before.

Now, they’ve received a new update, including improved bosses, loot, and mounts. If you want to have a better chance of winning all encounters and winning these loot, it’s crucial to invest more WoW Cataclysm Classic Gold in your character build to fully upgrade it.

In Phase 2 of WoW Cataclysm Classic, both Zul’Gurub and Zul’aman will become level 85 Heroic Dungeons that players can tackle. Arguably one of the most interesting 10-player raids in World of WarCraft history, Zul’aman was first introduced in Burning Crusade expansion and is the only way to unlock Amani War Bear Mount. Unfortunately, this feature is not available to players on Classic Era servers.

Zul’aman

But in Cataclysm Phase 2, Zul’aman will be brought back to life with new mechanics and plenty of challenges, giving players the following bosses to fight:

  • Akil’zon
  • Nalorakk
  • Jan’alai
  • Halazzi
  • Hex Lord Malacrass
  • Daakara

Zul’Gurub

Zul’Gurub was one of the earlier raids in World of WarCraft Vanilla, and it’s making a return in WoW Cataclysm Classic as a new addition to Phase 2. However, this Heroic Dungeon also won’t work the same way as players remember the original raid. In the new Heroic, players can fight the following bosses:

Required Bosses:

  • High Priest Venoxis
  • Broodlord Mandokir
  • High Priestess Kilnara
  • Zanzil
  • Jin’do the Godbreaker

Optional Bosses:

  • Gri’lek
  • Renataki
  • Hazza’rah
  • Wushoolay

One of the optional bosses can be summoned by players with a high enough Archaeology, a skill that was added in WoW Cataclysm Classic expansion. Additionally, after defeating the supreme boss, you’ll unlock a treasure map that you can take and unlock the powerful Account Bound Ring, which has a gem so big you can see it when you wear it!

Rare Mounts

Players can also unlock rare mounts in WoW Cataclysm Phase 2. Of course, this isn’t the original either, but the mounts available in Cataclysm’s Heroic Dungeon.

Epic mounts in Zul’Gurub include Swift Zulian Panther and Armored Razzashi Raptor. Amani War Bear Mount unlocks if you defeat the first four bosses of Zul’aman before time runs out.

Epic Drop Rate Increases

If you want to try out the content in WoW Cataclysm Classic Phase 2, you’ll need items at item level 346. You’ll find these two new Heroic Dungeons in a separate Heroic difficulty tier in Dungeon Finder, meaning they’re harder than the current Cataclysm Heroic Dungeons. Of course, with that comes better rewards, too, with item level 353 Epic drops in nearly every gear slot.

The big takeaway, though, is that previously harder-to-find gear slots like Bracers, Helmets, Shoulders, Gun, and Wands are also seeing their Epic drop rates increased. That’s pretty exciting!

Dungeon Finder Update

In addition, Cataclysm Phase 2 brings an update to the existing LFD or Dungeon Finder Tool called Call to Arms.

This update allows players to obtain Satchel of Exotic Mysteries while queuing for underrepresented roles in Dungeon Finder. When the system finds that a character is underrepresented in the queue, it will highlight that character with a Call to Arms icon in Dungeon Finder UI. To obtain these rewards, you must solo queue and must complete the dungeon by killing the ultimate boss.

While we don’t have any officially confirmed rewards yet, based on our experience with Phase 1, we’re guessing that when Rise of the Zandalari first launches, Satchel of Exotic Mysteries may include the following:

  • Gold
  • Rare Gems
  • Flasks/Potions
  • Non-Combat Pets
  • Mounts (Dungeon Drops Only)

Most of the time, Call to Arms will probably be for Tanks or Healers, but may occasionally supplement DPS players. This update is a great incentive for players willing to fill underrepresented roles and help shorten queue times for those who don’t.

That’s all we know about the new changes coming to Phase 2 of WoW Cataclysm. Get ready as soon as possible and let’s start a new adventure together!
