Each level band will have a dedicated raid, called a “level-up” raid, designed to be the pinnacle activity. For the level 25-40 band, the level-up raid is Gnomeregan. Following in the footsteps of Blackfathom Deeps being re-made into a raid for the level 1-25 band, Gnomeregan has been worked its encounters and environment to challenge level 40 players. There will also be a profession quest line tied to the raid that opens up new recipes for the non-gathering professions.
We’re also getting more runes to discover and play with. Right now, each class has 12 runes total across their Gloves, Legs, and Chest items, and it looks like we might be getting runes for Belts, Boots or Bracers in Phase 2. The WoW Classic team was quick to point out that just because these runes were pulled from the Phase 2 PTR build, doesn’t mean they’re all coming in Phase 2 and could come later. There’s also a new PVP event in Stranglethorn Vale called the Blood Moon that turns the entire zone into a PVP free-for-all for 30 minutes. Learning from the issues in Ashenvale during Phase 1, the Classic team designed this event to happen every 3 hours to occur more consistently for players to join in.
As players move beyond level 25, some things may work differently in Phase 2 than they did Phase 1, though these changes are largely meant to help players move along into new areas and discover the new content.
