Expansion: WoW Classic

Season of Discovery has brought a surprising amount of reasons to be underwater. Bosses like Baron Aquanis in Blackfathom Deeps can force you underwater if you are unlucky enough to end up in a whirlpool, Runes like Hunters Sniper Training require you to fight underwater, and even crafting Void-Touched gear asks you to be underwater for extended periods.

With a lowered max level, we have limited access to the best tools, but a select few Classes have access to their unique methods of water breathing. Unfortunately, for most players, your best solution will just be an Elixir of Water Breathing.

In later Phases, there are a handful of more accessible tools coming to help you breathe underwater, and future Runes are likely to ask you to do some very particular things to discover.

I love MMOs of all shades, especially the nitty gritty numbers parts of them. You might recognize me from the Shadow Priest discord, otherwise I play a little bit of everything, especially games with support roles available.
