Two days ago, the second PvP season ended in WoW: Burning Crusade Classic, and now everyone is looking to Blizzard with the hope of news about the third phase. And the developers fulfilled this hope last night! Still in January 2022, we may take on the bosses in the Black Temple and the Battle for Hyjal. But the update has even more to offer.
Patch "The Black Temple
As early as next week, starting on January 17, 2022, the new patch for TBC Classic called "The Black Temple" is supposed to hit the live servers. At this point, however, probably only two of the new features will actually be available to us:
Incubus as a companion for warlocks.
Warlocks will be able to embark on a new quest to learn how to summon an alternate succubus companion - the incubus.
A new PvP season begins
- At the start of this new PvP season, Arena Season 3 equipment will become available from Arena vendors in Shattrath and Nagrand.
- Arena Season 2 equipment will be available for less at Area 52 vendors and will no longer require an Arena rating to purchase.
- Arena Season 1 gear can be purchased from Honor Merchants in the Hall of Legends in Orgrimmar and the Hall of Champions in Stormwind.
