Guides

World of Warcraft: The War Within enters its second season on March 4, and there is quite a bit you can do as patch 11.1 goes live a week before.

With World of Warcraft (WoW): The War Within (TWW) now in a new patch, 11.1.0, there is quite a lot of brand-new features which will become available. However, much of this will only become available on March 4, when Season 2 goes live. That said, there remains a lot to do in this week, and we have a fair amount summarized below.

Getting Undermine(d) in Patch 11.1

Undermine, the new zone with the Goblin Trade Empire within continues the story of Xal’atath. But this also means that venturing into the new zone will require players to have completed the TWW leveling campaign, which can be seen in the image below:

With a week until the new season kicks off after the patch release, you will be able to run through everything if you have not done so already.

On release, chapters 1 to 4 of the new story will be available, while chapters 5 and 6 will come when Season 2 launches – meaning that you can spend the week catching up on the story and diving into the new parts in Undermine – including the new D.R.I.V.E mount system.

Learning your class

Patch 11.1 has an actual truckload ofclass changescoming to the game, with some specializations receiving complete overhauls. With that said, using the first week to get used to every change is always a great idea. With none of the new dungeons out until Season 2 begins, the week of little to do can give you a chance to look through the changes and maybe pick up a new class.

The final push before Season 2

There are a lot of things from Season 1 that will remain during the first week of Patch 11.1 and only disappear when Season 2 releases on March 4. Below is a list of some of these, which could fill your time or help you gear up before the new season.

While this is often considered a “dead week” within the WoW community, it does give those who have not played for some time a good way to catch up on everything that has happened along the way.
