Greetings Warmane community,
The second content phase of the realm has reached its conclusion, and the time has come for Onyxia to advance into its next thrilling chapter. The realm will transition into Tier 3 content on May 24, 2025 at 14:00 server time, introducing Black Temple and Battle for Mount Hyjal.
There will be no downtime, ensuring a seamless shift into this new phase.
The tier will be automatically unlocked, granting immediate access to both raids. This content period will span 2 months, giving players ample opportunity to face the challenges ahead and push deeper into endgame progression.
Sharpen your blades and steady your spells — the path into Shadowmoon Valley and the slopes of Mount Hyjal awaits. Onyxia continues its journey as Warmane’s premier progressive realm.

Battlegroup II Season Rewards
Onyxia
Gladiator PvP season is scheduled to end on May 28, 2025 at 22:00 server time. Arena points will be wiped, whilst honor points will remain.
Players will not be eligible for rewards IF: (team itself will remain intact as part of a rank slot)
- Personal rating is not within 150 of the Team Rating.
- You do not have at least 70% of the team's games played.
- Bans for extreme cases of MMR dropping.
- Removal of the team from the ladder and disbanding of the aforementioned team, thus meaning disqualification of receiving any seasonal rewards in case of extreme MMR dropping.
We would also like to remind the players that MMR dropping (especially below default rating) or any other form of abuse can lead to disbanding of the team. We will exempt this while done to restart team with a new partner(s) but extreme cases can still lead to team disbanding.
In order to promote activity in the 3v3 bracket and due to naturally low rating teams occupying top ten slots, players will only qualify for Gladiator titles if they're above 2 000 rating.
Suspicious activity, win trading and exploiting will result in account suspension and in extreme cases account termination.
Rewards can be found below:

Question, while honor points remain, will BG marks also remain? or be wiped?

So Rank 1 in Soloq gets Gladiator and therefore also Gladiator mount. What about the Supreme Titel in Soloq? Will they get the Gladiator Mount aswell? + the Top 1% of 30% of total players that have Solo Queue rating higher than 1600?
Would love to know. Thanks

Please also confirm if marks will be carried over to next season.

because you know... tbc is an expansion where is super biased to rogue-priest comps or any comp related to rogue? you honestly want to award people that plays meta comps and if you are not, simply you can't rank up into gladiator title?
and don't get me started with 3vs3 where rmp is the uncontested meta comp. ironically, tbc is the only expansion where 5vs5 is truly friendly to players and where also no matter comp you play, you can still rank up to gladiator and possibly rank 1.

Do we know if any of the attunement(s) for kara, ssc or tk will be removed?

What about BT and Hyjal loot for Blackrock players? Are we still on quests? Or we can already buy BIS gear with arena points / honor + rating? Since 2 months for season is not much if we need to push rating from start of the season then we cant really focus on questing.

Season 3 would last until September so you have 4 months. Zul Aman is more just a catch up raid and won't be replacing 25 mans so we will still be in T6 as well.

If it's not in the announcement then I highly doubt it. They wouldn't neglect to mention that as it's a major change. I would count on that happening in Sunwell phase.

When will the store be upgraded with T5 gear ?

Last couple times has been on the Thursday after raid release. So May 29th in this case. I wouldn't rely on that information being concrete at all, just mentioning how it went previously.

Is there a more detailed list of everything that comes with this patch? Like dunno Netherwing dailies, epic gems, mark of illidari flasks? :D
Would be much appreciated by those of us who dont play PTR

Back in the day that got removed in the WotLK prepatch (which was the same time we got the nerfed bosses, that we have now)
So if they do so, my guess would be in the last patch (Sunwell)

Since when does Warmane award Rank 1 titles in 2v2? If we're supposedly following the classic or old retail TBC format, then why there’s no Gladiator title for 2v2 players at all, also you're giving out a mount only to Rank 1?
If we’re claiming to follow a Blizzlike experience, then all Gladiator winners should be receiving the mount, not just the top Rank 1 team.
Also, what's going on with Solo Queue? Why isn’t there a Rank 1 title for that bracket? That’s a first for Warmane servers. In the past, Rank 1 was always recognized across all competitive brackets.
Can we get some clarity on the direction this is heading? Either go full Blizzlike or be transparent about the changes being made.
