WoW Blog: Timewalking: The Arcatraz

Timewalking

In World of Warcraft Patch 6.2, we're introducing a new series of seven different weekend events, and two of the seven weekends will make Timewalking Dungeons available to characters at level 71 and higher for Outland dungeons or 81 and higher for Northrend dungeons. When you Timewalk these dungeons, you'll find that your character's power and gear has been scaled down to a fraction of what they normally are, and you may have never ventured into some (or all) of them, so it's a good idea to prepare yourself now.

Outland: The Arcatraz

The mighty Tempest Keep was created by the enigmatic naaru: sentient beings of pure energy and the sworn enemies of the Burning Legion. In addition to serving as a base of operations for the naaru, the structure itself possesses the technology to teleport through alternate dimensions, traveling from one location to another in the blink of an eye.

With Outland serving as the strategic battlefront in the ongoing Burning Crusade, the naaru recently used Tempest Keep to reach the shattered land. However, when the naaru set out from their stronghold, Prince Kael'thas and his blood elves quickly raided the dimensional fortress and assumed control over its satellite structures. Now, guided by some unknown purpose, Kael'thas manipulates the keep's otherworldly technologies, using them to harness the chaotic energies of the Netherstorm itself.

Tips

• Zereketh is known for summoning void zones. Run out of them immediately!
• Zereketh's Seed of Corruption causes his victim to explode with damage. It's best to stand apart when you're the seedy one.
• Dalliah's Whirlwind should be avoided by all but the stoutest of tanks.
• Her Gift of the Doomsayer channels healing to you if you have it. Healers beware!
• Stay out of Soccothrates' fel fire.
• The one and only Millhouse Manastorm assists you in your battle with Harbinger Skyriss and his many "friends". Keep Millhouse alive.

Achievements and Reputation

If you've not gotten them before, completing this dungeon will award The Arcatraz and Heroic: The Arcatraz , the latter of which is required for Outland Dungeon Hero.

Killing enemies in this dungeon increases your standing with The Sha'tar. For a full breakdown of what you can do with Sha'tar reputation, check out Wowhead and Wowpedia.

Get in there and Fight!

Timewalking dungeons are coming to WoW with Patch 6.2: Fury of Hellfire. Keep an eye out for the weekend-only quest "A Burning Path Through Time (Warlords of Draenor))", which rewards a Seal of Inevitable Fate when you complete five Burning Crusade Timewalking dungeons.
