Karazhan will be the central axis in the history of the Legion, being an extremely important place. Karazhan will be a fairly long dungeon of 5 people, with a total of 9 boss encounters (the Opera encounter is counted as one as well). The old Karazhan raid will remain active, they have no plans to erase that piece of Lore. There will be a small event between the launch of the initial two raids, Emerald Nightmare and Nighthold, which concludes with the story of Stormheim, so there are no loose ends. This will contain outdoor content, which is intended to promote and create more content. The following points will be prioritized in its development:
- There was a period when Blizzard focused on getting expansions too fast, sacrificing things they shouldn't, so this mistake will never be made again.
- The top priority going forward is a constant stream of content.
- They will make sure there is content in the game while you work on the expansion.
- The raid tiers should last around 4 to 5 months.
- They promise not to stop releasing content and avoid a drought like in Wod.
