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 and the challenging Scourge Invasions event. Guilds can then tackle the iconic Naxxramas raid starting February 6th, featuring a new "Empower" difficulty mode for seasoned players.
The Karazhan Crypts, a 5-player dungeon located beneath the Karazhan tower in Deadwind Pass, offers a new delve into familiar territory. Simultaneously, the Scourge Invasion unleashes undead hordes across Azeroth, presenting new quests and the opportunity to collect Necrotic Runes for unique consumables at Light's Hope Chapel.
Following the Ahn'qiraj raids of Phase 6, players will continue to encounter the mysterious Shadowy Figure, whose identity and role in Phase 7 remain a captivating enigma. The addition of new runes from Rune Brokers in major cities further enhances the gameplay experience.
Naxxramas, opening February 6th, presents a formidable challenge, especially with the new "Empower" difficulty. Conquering the four wings unlocks access to the Frostwyrm Lair and the final bosses, Sapphiron and Kel'thuzad.
While Season of Discovery ends, the future of World of Warcraft Classic remains bright, promising continued updates and challenges throughout 2025. The long-term vision for Seasonal realms is yet to be revealed by Blizzard.
