World of Warcraft's Extended Timewalking Extravaganza: Seven Weeks of Turbulent Timeways!
World of Warcraft players are in for a treat! The Turbulent Timeways event is back, and this time it's even bigger. Running for seven consecutive weeks until February 24th, this event offers a non-stop Timewalking experience across various expansions. Players can earn a wealth of rewards, including a substantial experience boost, numerous Timewarped Badges, and a chance to snag the coveted Timely Buzzbee mount.
This expanded event builds upon the success of the September 2023 iteration, which featured five weeks of Timewalking. The core gameplay remains the same: complete Timewalking dungeons to earn the stackable Mastery of Timeways buff, providing a 20% experience bonus.
The extended Timewalking schedule is as follows:
- January 7-13: Mists of Pandaria
- January 14-20: Warlords of Draenor
- January 21-27: Legion
- January 28-February 3: Classic
- February 4-10: The Burning Crusade
- February 11-17: Wrath of the Lich King
- February 18-24: Cataclysm
Rewards and Achievements:
Completing the Mastery of Timeways buff for five out of the seven weeks unlocks the "Mastery of the Turbulent Timeways 2" achievement, rewarding players with the adorable Timely Buzzbee mount. Timewalking vendors across all expansions feature new permanent items, including Season of Discovery transmogs at the Classic vendor. Additionally, the Sandy Shalewing pet, previously available only during the initial Turbulent Timeways event, is making a return. Furthermore, the weekly Timewalking dungeon quest now rewards Heroic gear throughout the event's duration.
Looking Ahead:
The conclusion of the Turbulent Timeways event on February 24th offers a significant clue about upcoming World of Warcraft content. Considering Blizzard's typical release schedule and the holiday season, February 25th is strongly speculated as the launch date for Patch 11.1, "Undermined." This aligns with a ten-week gap following Patch 11.0.7. With the Turbulent Timeways, the second run of Plunderstorm (January 14th – February 17th), and the imminent major content update for The War Within, World of Warcraft is poised for an action-packed start to 2025. Prepare for an exhilarating ride!
