History

End of the days

It is one of the infinite number of possible outcomes. This time portal shows the bleak future of Azeroth should its defenders fail in their efforts to stop Deathwing. In this stark future, Nozdormu has discovered an anomaly that prohibits access to both the past and the Dragon Soul: a powerful timeless creature, living alone amid time-distorted echoes of the past.

In order for Nozdormu to grant you the ability to travel back in time, to a point where Malfurion Stormrage kept the Dragon Soul hidden from all those who sought its power, you will first have to step into a distant and desolate future to discover the anomaly. that blocks the past. You will find yourself in a very different Dragonblight, stripped of its snowy landscape, and in which little more than the ruins of those glorious dragon shrines of another time remain. The Temple of the Dragon's Rest itself is nothing more than a memento of Deathwing's madness, what remains of its scorched remains is nailed atop the structure.

Before facing the creature that interrupts Nozdormu's access to the past, you will have to fight two of the following four seemingly familiar leaders, chosen at random each time you participate in End of Days.

Dungeon guide passages

Echo of SylvanasA deranged fragment of the Forsaken leader, Sylvanas Windrunner, has emerged from shattered time portals and is cloistered in the Ruby Dragonshrine, waiting impatiently. He has lost everything and is unable to find peace, this tormented echo is willing to unleash his dark fury against all life still present in these wastelands and misplaced in time.

Echo of Tyrande: A former leader of the night elves and high priestesses of Elune, this time-warped shard of Tyrande Whisperwind now roams the wastes of Azeroth's desolate future. Wrapped in a perpetual midnight, she is lacking but has lost sight of the comforting Light of Elune.

Echo of Jaina: Jaina Proudmoore's tormented fragment is split and imbued with the shattered remains of her staff. To restore balance in the portals of time, it is necessary to defeat this echo. But the devastating magical power that the proud leader of Theramore possesses remains almost unscathed on her time spectrum. In this Azeroth of the future, it is only divided and lurking ...

Baine's Echo:Enraged at his failure to protect the world, and more importantly, the Horde, this time-warped shadow of Baine Bloodhoof remains in the ruins of the Obsidian Dragonshrine. While still as powerful as the Great Tauren Chieftain of the present, in this shattered future Azeroth this guilt-driven echo is little more than the jarring host of inexhaustible malice and anger.

These long-deceased heroes are but echoes of their former glory, further deranged by the corrupting force of time. His presence here is a great mystery, even to Nozdormu. When these shadows have been sent to eternal rest, the maniacal figure blocking Nozdormu's vision will reveal himself in the Bronze Dragonshrine. None of the Aspect dragons could have predicted which entity would have such a power to disrupt the Vision of the Timeless… the ability to create a new and infinite Flight. To give the protectors of Azeroth a chance to avoid the potential outcome you are witnessing, you will have to destroy the mysterious dragon known as Murozond.

Bosses of the End of Days / End of Times dungeon

Among an infinite number of possible outcomes, this time portal describes the bleak future of Azeroth in the event that Deathwing is not defeated. Nozdormu identifies at that moment a powerful anomaly that prevents access to the past and, therefore, any hope of recovering the Demon Soul. It appears to be a powerful creature from another age that dwells in solitude among the echoes of the past distorted in time.

The dungeon has three bosses, the first two appear randomly from these four:

Strategy

{tab = Spanish}

This is a guide to End Times, a 5 person dungeon opened in the PTR of patch 4.3. Please note that the material in this guide is from the first stage of the PTR and the dungeon may receive changes in the future.

End of Times is located in Caverns of Time, and represents a rather macabre alternate reality in which Deathwing did not stop at destroying Azeroth. This dungeon has a total of 3 encounters - the first two are randomly selected from a group of four possible, the last will always be Murozond in the Bronze Dragon Shrine.

Let's review the four changing encounters.

Echo of Jaina will welcome you to the Azure Dragonshrine. In this vision you have to collect the 16 green fragments scattered around the place, then Jaina will show up in the blue circle near the entrance. Minion Priests will generate wells of light that must be destroyed, which heal in enormous quantities. Other than that, it is advisable to kill the minions near Jaina's location, the others can be avoided if you have a good group.

Jaina is a fairly easy opponent - every now and then she will move around and launch a blast of ice that will require healing, but none of these abilities require special measures. However, there are two things to keep in mind. Frost Blades, which are very easy to see and avoid. If you are in that position it will paralyze you for 5 seconds, so you have to avoid. His most devastating ability is Bengal, which is a fireball that shoots at a random location. Once this is done one of the group has to go and stay in that location until it detonates.

If there is no one in the Flare, it will detonate in 10 seconds, explode on its own and do a lot of area damage to all party members. Assign someone who can go to the location of the Flare. Damage in the tank is very low in this encounter.

Echo of Baine will welcome you to the Obsidian Dragonshrine. The minions in this dungeon are pretty devastating, but easy to dodge. It is not necessary to kill any group of minions, but if you decide to do it, the tank will catch all the dragons and you will have to dispel all the magical debuffs. Many of the magics can be interrupted, but I haven't been able to look closely enough at what the abilities do in detail.

Baine will be on one of the four platforms in the lava. Before starting, divide the group in two, the ranged dps and the heal on one platform, the melees and the tank on the Baine platform. Keep Baine from touching the lava as little as possible because he gains a temporary buff. Melees also get a buff if they touch lava, so it tanks near it and they would have to go in and out.

From time to time, Baine will throw a totem at a random group member, if you are hit by the totem it will throw you off the platform, you have to quickly return to the totem, pick it up and throw it at Baine before it disappears, it will take away the 10 % of your health and will stun you for several seconds and take double damage.

If you don't kill him fast enough, Baine can jump onto a platform and pulverize it, damaging everyone on the platform and destroying it. If that happens, group members are to go to the tank platform and continue as usual. It's worth spreading yourself across multiple platforms in case this happens.

Echo of Tyrande will welcome you to the Emerald Dragonshrine. As you enter this area, you will see many night sabers and a source of light. You have to get to the light source, if a saber is chasing you, get to the source and kill it there. Once the source is gone, move on to the next one (make sure no group member is left behind) and then repeat the process. After five sources, Tyrande appears.

This is a very simple encounter. Basically, you have to prevent Tyrande from reaching you. His basic attacks, Lunar Bolt and Stardust are unavoidable. He will start by pulling Moonpick, which starts at his spawn point and goes straight out. If it hits you, it will stun you for 5 seconds and deal damage.

Her Elune's Piercing Gaze ability should be avoided, they are small balls of white light that move in circular motion. If it hits you, it deals significant damage and silences for 5 seconds. They are like the Alysrazor cyclones, except they are less deadly.

When she's at 30% health, Tyrande will launch Tears of Elune, which are blue missiles falling from the sky. Put the camera up and the zoom makes it easier to avoid them. They don't do much damage, so if they hit you it's not the end of the world.

At 80% and 55% health, Tyrande gains the Guide of the Moon buff for 50% spell casting speed. This should not be a problem.

Echo of Sylvanas will welcome you to the Ruby Dragonshrine. I did not notice anything particularly difficult, the groups of minions lead directly to her. You can overlook the vultures on the right.

Sylvanas is also pretty straightforward. Keep your ranged limbs out of combat, so never more than one person will be hit by the infected arrows. Contaminated arrows form a purple line on the ground and deal damage, as well as any traps inside, so it barely pops out and hits you.

She also has two AoE abilities, Unholy Shot and Black Arrow, which will be thrown at a random party member and everyone close to her, making it an even better idea to be at maximum distance from her. Both deal 50.000 damage to the target and all members within 10 yards.

The key to this encounter is in The Call to the Highborne, where Sylvanas will ascend into the sky and attract all members to her. A group of ghouls spawns in a circle around her and they begin to advance towards her. When the ghouls catch up with her, she sacrifices them dealing damage to all (300k), within 10 yards. Moving through the ghoul ring also deals high damage, so the goal is to mark a ghoul and have everyone kill it, so they have a gap to exit the ghoul ring.

Once outside the ring, wait behind the ghouls until she sacrifices them, then quickly separate because she will continue with the infected Arrows. Resume combat normally until she is finished (she should not make more than two Stunned calls before dying).

Lastly, Murozond He awaits you at the Bronze Dragon Shrine. He is his last rival. Take out both groups of minions and Murozond will be available. The tank enters from the front, away from the rest of the members, as it has a flame breath. The melees always from the back or the side. The melees have to be near the hourglass in the center of the room and click on it around 80, 65, 50, 35 and 15% health (this rewinds time and restores all ability cooldowns of your party, as well as mana and health), which makes this fight a breeze. In addition, you will be next to Nozdormu that benefits group members with the Bronze Flight boon, greatly increases attack, haste and movement speed.

Murozond drops distortion bombs at random party members, just get out of them when you are the target and enjoy the encounter, it's fun.

This concludes the "End of Days." Hope you enjoyed the guide.

{tab = English} This is a walkthrough to End Time, the first newly released 5-man instance on the 4.3 PTR. Do note that all this footage is taken in the first stages of the PTR and the dungeon might receive significant changes in the future.

End Time is located in the Caverns of Time, and depicts a pretty macabre alternate reality in which Deathwing was not stopped from destroying Azeroth. This instance features a total of 3 encounters - the first two are randomly selected from a pool of 4 possible scenarios, the last encounter will always be Murozond in the Bronze Dragonshrine.

Let's go over the 4 changing scenarios. Echo of Jaina will greet you in the in the Azure Dragonshrine. In this vision you have to collect all 16 green fragments strewn about the place, after which Jaina will show up in the blue circle near the entrance. The priests in the trash packs will spawn little lightwells that need to be killed, as they do massive amounts of healing. Other than that, it's advisable to kill the trash packs near Jaina's spawn point, others can be avoided if your party is sneaky enough.

Jaina is a fairly easy opponent - she'll occasionally blink around and shower your party with frostbolts that require some healing, but neither of these abilities require special action. However, there's two things you need to watch out for: Frost Blades, which are very obvious and easily avoided. Standing in one of those will stun you for 5 seconds, so don't stand in them. Her most devastating ability is Flarecore, which is a little earthy-looking fireball she'll throw at a random location. Once she does this, someone needs to run to the Flarecore and stand in it to detonate it.

If no one detonates the Flarecore within 10 seconds, it'll explode on its own and deal massive AoE damage to every party member. Long story short, assign someone to stand in the Flarecores as they pop up. She also has a Pyroblast, but tank damage seems very low in this encounter as it currently is.

Echo of Baine will greet you in the Obsidian Dragonshrine. The trash in this part of the instance is currently pretty devastating but can easily be dodged. Yes, you don't have to kill a single trash pack. If you decide to do so anyway, have your tank point the dragons away from the rest of your party and dispel every magic debuff. A lot of the nasties are probably interruptable, but I didn't get a good enough look at their abilities in detail.

Baine himself will stand on one of 4 platforms in the lava. Before engaging him, you want to spread your ranged party members out over at least two of the platforms with the tank and melee on Baine's own platform. If possible, avoid dragging Baine into lava, as he gains a temporary buff whenever he touches it. Your party's melee also get a buff when touching the lava, so tanking him near it and having them dip in and out of it might be worth it.

Occasionally, Baine will throw a totem at a random party member - getting hit by a totem will throw that person off the platform, but they should quickly get back to the totem, pick it up and throw it back at Baine. Throwing his totem back at Baine before it disappears will take off 10% of his health, stun him for several seconds and also make him take double damage.

If you don't kill him quickly enough, Baine might jump onto a platform and pulverize it, which deals some damage to everyone on the platform and completely destroys it. If that happens, the party members on the destroyed platform should seek refuge on the tank platform and continue the fight as normal. It's worth spreading out over multiple platforms so less people have to move should this happen.

Echo of Tyrande will greet you in the Emerald Dragonshrine. Once you enter this area, you'll see a bunch of Nightsabers and a fountain of light. Drag any nightsabers that appear into the fountain of light and kill them there. Once the fountain disappears, move on to the next one (be sure that no party member gets left behind) and then repeat the process. After 5 fountains of light and many Nightsabers, Tyrande will spawn.

This is a very straightforward encounter. Basically, you want to avoid standing in anything Tyrande throws at you. Her basic attacks, Moonbolt and Stardust are unavoidable, but everything else is. She'll start out by throwing out Moonlances, which start out at her spawn point and travel outwards in a straight line. Standing in one will stun a player for 5 seconds and inflict some damage.

Her next avoidable ability is Eyes of the Goddess, little white balls of light that travel in a circular motion around the area. Standing in one will inflict significant damage and silence a player for 5 seconds. Think cyclones on Alysrazor, except less deadly.

When she's at 30% health, Tyrande will summon down Tears of Elune, which are blue missiles dropping out of the sky. Angling your camera upwards and zooming out should allow you to dodge most if not all of them. They don't deal much damage anyway though, so getting hit by them isn't the end of the world.

At 80% health and 55% health, Tyrande gains a stacking casting speed buff, for a combined total of 50% increased casting speed. This shouldn't be an issue, though. Damage is still low provided your party members don't stand in everything they possibly can.

Echo of Sylvanas will greet you in the Ruby Dragonshrine. I didn't notice anything particularly challenging about the trash leading up to her, so just kill the packs. You can ignore the vultures to the right.

Sylvanas is also fairly straightforward. Have your ranged members spread out at the beginning of the fight, so it's never more than one person that gets hit by Blighted Arrows. Blighted Arrows form a purple line on the ground and will deal damage as well as snare anyone within it, so just get out if she happens to cast it on you.

She also has two AoE abilities called Unholy Shot and Black Arrow which she'll use on a random party member and everyone nearby, which makes it an even better idea to stay spread out. Both of these will inflict 50000 damage to the target and everyone within 10 yards.

The key mechanic of this encounter is The Calling of the Highborne, where Sylvanas will ascend towards the sky and pull every party member towards her. A bunch of ghouls will spawn in a circle around her and start moving towards her. When the ghouls reach her, she'll sacrifice them which deals 300k damage to everyone within 10 yards. Moving through the ring of ghouls also inflicts massive damage, so the objective here is to mark ONE ghoul and have everyone kill it, which leaves a hole in the ring of ghouls that your party can escape through.

Once out of the ring, wait behind the missing ghoul until Sacrifice is cast, then spread out quickly as she'll follow it up with Blighted Arrows. Resume the fight as per normal until she's dead - she should not cast more than 2 Calling of the Highbornes before she dies.

Lastly, Murozond will await you in the Bronze Dragonshrine. He's your final opponent. Take out both trash packs and Murozond will become available. Have your tank face him away from the rest of your party, as he has a Flame Breath. Melee can safely stand as his back or his side. Have one party member stand near the hourglass in the middle of the area and have him click it around 80, 65, 50, 35 and 15% health - this will rewind time and reset all of your party's ability cooldowns as well as restore mana and health, which makes this fight incredibly easy. Also, Nozdormu will stand by and buff your party with Blessing of the Bronze Dragonflight, greatly increasing attack, casting and movement speed.

Murozond will throw Distortion Bombs at random party members, just get out of these when they're on you and enjoy this fun fight!

That concludes the "End Time" instance. I hope you enjoyed this walkthrough! {/ tabs}
