World of Warcraft players now get the chance to test their mettle against the most devoted champions of Queen Azshara as the new Eternal Palace raid is now accessible. The raid has players battle eight bosses. A minimum of level 120 is required with the raid finder minimum item level set at 380.
The raid comes in multiple difficulties with the raid unlock schedule being:
- July 9 – Normal and Heroic Difficulties
- July 16 – Mythic and Raid Finder Wing 1 (Abyssal Commander Sivara, Blackwater Behemoth, Radiance of Azshara)
- July 30 – Raid Finder Wing 2 (Lady Ashvane, Orgozoa, The Queen’s Court)
- August 13 – Raid Finder Wing 3 (Za’qul, Queen Azshara)
The eight bosses players need to defeat are:
- Abyssal Commander Sivara
- A master of both martial and magical arts, Abyssal Commander Sivara has ruthlessly led Azshara’s vanguard to countless victories.
- Blackwater Behemoth
- Summoned from depths unknown, the Blackwater Behemoth lurks in an abyss so dark that not even the naga dare to venture into it. Only Azshara is capable of taming the beast, and she has trained it to faithfully guard her treasures.
- Radiance of Azshara
- Using her handmaiden as a willing sacrifice, Azshara has forged into being an elemental of storm and arcana. Powered by the soul of the devoted vassal, the resulting monstrosity is the avatar of Azshara’s radiance.
- Lady Ashvane
- Priscilla Ashvane’s relentless pursuit of power has ultimately led her to the Eternal Palace and into a dark pact with Queen Azshara. But what Ashvane receives in return for her loyalty may be more than she bargained for.
- Orgozoa
- Orgozoa tends to Azshara’s hatchery, preparing for the day her incubating horrors are unleashed upon Azeroth.
- The Queen’s Court
- For ten thousand years, the Queen’s Court has never failed to enforce the word of Azshara. Now, the queen’s most powerful servants stand ready to fulfill her final decree.
- Za’qul, Harbinger of Ny’alotha
- The harbinger for the end of days, Za’qul shreds the last vestiges of sanity from a world in chaos, laying the foundations for Azeroth’s new master.
- Queen Azshara
- Queen of the Naga, Empress of Nazjatar, and one of the most powerful entities Azeroth has ever known, Azshara has plotted and schemed for millennia in preparation for this fateful moment. Now, with all the pieces in place, the time has finally come to reveal her endgame.
