September 15, 2023 3 minutes

Greetings, adventurers! WowCarry here, bringing you the latest scoop on the Season 3 dungeon pool in World of Warcraft. After the recent influx of information about patch 10.2, we decided to take a closer look at the dungeons that will be available during the upcoming season. Join us as we delve into each dungeon and discuss the first thoughts that crossed our minds upon learning about the dungeon pool.

The Dungeon Rotation

Let's start by taking a look at the dungeon rotation for Season 3:

  1. Dawn of the Infinites: Galakrond's Fall - This dungeon has a 39-minute timer and is sure to put your skills to the test.
  2. Dawn of the Infinites: Murozond's Rise - With another 39-minute timer, this dungeon offers a thrilling adventure against the forces of darkness.
  3. Darkheart Thicket (Legion) - A 30-minute timer adds an element of urgency to this challenging dungeon.
  4. Black Rook Hold (Legion) - Prepare yourself for a 39-minute journey through this castle of ancient secrets.
  5. Waycrest Manor (Battle for Azeroth) - This haunting manor will test your mettle in a 39-minute race against time.
  6. Atal'Dazar (Battle for Azeroth) - With a 30-minute timer, this dungeon will take you deep into the heart of ancient troll civilization.
  7. Everbloom (Warlords of Draenor) - Explore the vibrant and dangerous flora of Everbloom within a 35-minute timeframe.
  8. Throne of the Tides (Cataclysm) - Dive into the depths of Vashj'ir and confront the challenges of this underwater dungeon in just 30 minutes.

Our experts, Dratnos and Tettles, expressed their surprise at the absence of more Dragonflight dungeons in the list. This leads them to speculate whether an all-Dragonflight season 4 or 5 is on the horizon. The excitement for future seasons is palpable.

The Challenges Ahead

As our seasoned adventurers analyzed each dungeon, they couldn't help but raise concerns about certain aspects:

  • Darkheart Thicket: A Familiar Scent

Tettles, in particular, worries that Darkheart Thicket may become the Underrot/Court of Stars/Shadowmoon Burial Grounds of this season. The dungeon's notorious one-shot bosses have already been nerfed during the dungeon's appearance in Legion timewalking.

  • Black Rook Hold and Waycrest Manor: Sanguine Struggles

Both Black Rook Hold and Waycrest Manor have earned reputations as challenging Sanguine dungeons. Even with the diluted power of the Legion Sanguine, Black Rook Hold proved to be an arduous trial. Our experts anticipate an even greater challenge in Season 3.

  • Atal'Dazar: A Favorite with Flaws

Atal'Dazar was a beloved dungeon in Battle for Azeroth, but it wasn't without its share of difficulties. Several problematic enemies often required specific strategies to overcome. Dratnos and Tettles anticipate updates to mitigate these challenges, making the dungeon more accessible for all adventurers.

  • Everbloom and Throne of the Tides: Testing Our Memory

Both Everbloom and Throne of the Tides have aged like fine wine, their specifics fading from memory. Throne of the Tides, in particular, never existed as a Challenge Mode dungeon, so it holds promise for a fresh and exciting experience. We eagerly await the updated versions of these two classic dungeons.

Conclusion

As Season 3 of World of Warcraft approaches, players can look forward to a diverse set of dungeons spanning multiple expansions. With two new entries, Dawn of the Infinites: Galakrond's Fall and Dawn of the Infinites: Murozond's Rise, the anticipation is high. Experts Dratnos and Tettles have also weighed in, speculating about the potential focus on Dragonflight dungeons in future seasons.

Concerns have been raised about the challenges in certain dungeons, such as the one-shot bosses in Darkheart Thicket and the Sanguine mechanics in Black Rook Hold and Waycrest Manor. Additionally, Atal'Dazar is seen as a dungeon with potential improvements needed, while Everbloom and Throne of the Tides offer a nostalgic experience with updated mechanics.

Overall, Season 3 promises to bring excitement, challenges, and new dynamics to the dungeon-crawling experience. Get ready for an engaging season with the help of the WowCarry team, whether you're a seasoned or new player looking to complete Mythic+.
