As you have known, official site had merged three realms into one realm two weeks ago (June 6).

Light’s hope will launch new realm – Northdale this week (June 23). Official site is laying out plans for the timeline, and doing its utmost to ensure as smooth a launch as possible. Here mmogah.com will guide you to the new realm – Northdale’s timeline.

 

Progressive Realm

In sticking with a significant feature of previous realms. Northdale will have progressive itemization, quests, loot tables, dungeons and raids. That is, throughout the content lifecycle weapons, armor, trinkets, rings will undergo statistic and effect changes as they did in Vanilla. Similarly, as new items come out with varying patches, loot tables will be updated to include them. So a boss may not drop some items at the beginning, but they may gain new ones with each patch.
