Mythic+ testing continues starting today! Blizzard have posted a new set of dungeons that will be available for testing, and it’s 8 of them! Two of them received tuning passes, with the Pit of Saron getting nerfs on Ick and Krick, and Maisara Caverns also getting its difficulty slightly toned down.
Greetings!
Midnight Season 1 dungeon testing continues on Tuesday, January 6 at 3:00 p.m. PST (6:00 p.m. EDT / 12:00 a.m. CEST) and runs until Monday, January 12 at 10:00 a.m. PST (1:00 p.m. EDT / 7:00 p.m. CEST). Please note that this schedule may be adjusted if we encounter any technical issues during testing.
During the test period you’ll be able to acquire and customize Mythic Keystones by talking to the Keystone Vendor in Stormwind, Orgrimmar and Silvermoon. The nearby Dungeon Teleports NPC will assist you with transportation.Throughout beta, all Midnight dungeons will be available for testing on Normal and Heroic difficulty. Seasonal dungeons will rotate with each new test period.
