Dragonflight Season 4 on the PTR: New Dungeon Rotation & Awakened Raids

dragonflight season 4 ptr

Dragonflight Season 4 arrived on the PTR today, as promised. The patch contains a new rotation of dungeons, raids, and PvP for the home stretch of the expansion.

The new rotation of dungeons for Mythic+ will bring back all of the Dragonflight dungeons with the exception of Dawn of the Infinite. All of these dungeons were previously included in the Mythic+ rotations for Season 1 or 2. Dawn of the Infinite is getting a new “Hard Mode” that offers better rewards for additional challenge, without including it in the Mythic+ rotation.

Season 4 will also feature a rotation of raids, similar to the Fated Raids we saw in Shadowlands. This time they’ve been given the name “Awakened.” Awakened raids will offer several new rewards, and you’ll be able to unlock a portal to each of the raids by completing it on Mythic difficulty.

And of course, there will also be a new season of PvP with new titles and achievements to earn.

Arm yourself; Dragonflight Season 4 is available on the PTR.

Powerful rewards await in Season 4 to deliver the best of what the Dragonflight expansion offers. Jump into the new Mythic+ dungeon rotation, rally your forces for new challenges in raids, prepare for the new PvP season, and ready yourselves for The War Within.


IMPROVED DUNGEON PROGRESSION AND NEW ROTATIONS

Return to all eight Dragonflight dungeons for a refined and rewarding progression curve for Heroic, Mythic, and Mythic+ with better pacing and meaningful rewards.

  • Algeth’ar Academy
  • Brackenhide Hollow
  • Halls of Infusion
  • Neltharus
  • Ruby Life Pools
  • The Azure Vault
  • The Nokhud Offensive
  • Uldaman: Legacy of Tyr

The baseline Dawn of the Infinite will be more challenging and rewarding; however, it will not be included in the bi-weekly rotation. Additional details on the variety of adjustments to dungeons and their progression can be found in our previously published article.


POWERFUL NEW REWARDS

Earn fresh rewards through PvE and PvP content, purchase them with a new currency—Antique Bronze Bullion, or through the new gear upgrade track—Awakened.

Complete all three Awakened Dragonflight raids on Normal difficulty to receive the Voyaging Wildering dynamic flying mount. Earn the new achievement title, The Awakened, for completing the Dragonriding Awakened raids on Heroic difficulty. Dedicated defenders can obtain the new Keystone Master mount, Infinite Armoredon, once the Dragonflight Keystone Master: Season 4 achievement is attained.

Also, those who complete the Dragonflight Awakened raids on Mythic difficulty are rewarded with Path Portals to the three raids:

All three raids will also drop a new tier token to exchange for new tier pieces with the appearance and bonus combination that players voted for.

Legendary items will drop as usual from raids, but players who have previously obtained them can purchase a Scale of Awakening to upgrade their items to the Season 4 ilvls (base is 502 and can be upgraded further through Crests and Flightstones).


A NEW PVP SEASON

Season 4 arrives with PvP rankings reset, new gear sets, mounts, titles, and more! Earn the Vicious Dreamtalon (Horde or Alliance version) for Rated Arena and Rated Battleground, and the Draconic Gladiator’s Drake for earning the Gladiator: Dragonflight Season 4 achievement.

The following titles and achievement rewards can be attained during Dragonflight Season 4:

  • The Draconic
    • Dragonflight Keystone Conqueror: Season 4 – Attain a Mythic+ Rating of 1500 during Dragonflight Season 4.
  • The Draconic Hero
