Here’s the full story of the No Limits questline, from its setup at the Temporal Conflux to Eternus’s reconciliation with the Bronze Dragonflight.
Starting the No Limits Questline
Patch 10.1.7 "Fury Incarnate" arrived on September 5, 2023, and brought a new story thread to Thaldraszus. To pick up the No Limits quest, players headed to the Temporal Conflux area in southern Thaldraszus, where Chromie and Nozdormu were waiting near a bonfire. No prerequisite dungeon run was required. The Dawn of the Infinite megadungeon chain that appeared in early guides as a potential gate was removed by a hotfix on September 8, 2023, three days after the patch launched.
The seven quests in the chain ran in sequence:
- No Limits
- What Makes an Infinite
- Not Today, Fate
- Violence Will Solve It
- Butterfly Effects
- The Fate We Make
- Infinity and Beyond
Each step advanced the conversation between Chromie, Nozdormu, and Eternus, an Infinite dragon estranged from the Bronze Dragonflight after a personal tragedy. The arc explored whether Eternus could return to a path the Bronze Dragonflight could accept, and whether Nozdormu was willing to offer that opportunity.
Meeting Eternus and Her Grief
Chromie's theory going in: there was a chance to bring at least one Infinite dragon to their side before another confrontation with Murozond — the Infinite Aspect revealed in the Dragon Soul raid as Nozdormu's own corrupted future self. The meeting with Eternus made clear immediately that the animosity between the Infinite and Bronze Dragonflights ran deep.
Eternus's reason for embracing the Infinite ethos was not ideology but grief: her sister, Moraidormi, had died at the hands of Vexemia — a dragon who had been Moraidormi's closest friend before the Black Dragonflight's corruption claimed her. Eternus had sought to change that outcome and had been denied. That denial, she believed, exposed the Bronze Dragonflight's willingness to sacrifice individuals for the sake of the "immutable timeline."
✏️ Lore context: Murozond is Nozdormu's alternate-timeline self — the version of the Aspect of Time who embraced the Infinite Dragonflight's timeline-corrupting ethos. He was defeated in the End Time dungeon during Cataclysm, but his influence on the Infinite Dragonflight persisted into the Dragonflight era.
Into the Time Rift: Moraidormi's Sacrifice
Curious about Eternus's perspective, Nozdormu and the player agreed to accompany her through a Time Rift to witness the events surrounding Moraidormi's death. The Rift took them to the Timeless Tunnel in Tanaris, where Moraidormi made her last stand against Vexemia, who had been sent by the Black Dragonflight to destroy the bronze clutch sheltering in the tunnel's depths.
Players attempted to intervene across multiple iterations of the rift. In every version, Moraidormi died. The outcome was fixed.
📌 Story design note: The repeated-rift-failure mechanic echoed the established Dragonflight theme of "witnessing but not changing" fixed points in time — the same principle used in the Dawn of the Infinite megadungeon. Moraidormi's death was not a failure to intervene; it was her active choice.
The critical revelation came when Nozdormu identified what Moraidormi had actually done: she had positioned herself to absorb Vexemia's fatal strike because it let a young clutch of bronze whelps and dragon eggs escape into the tunnels behind her. The sacrifice was voluntary, and it had purpose. Moraidormi had not been denied a rescue. She had refused one to save the next generation of the Bronze Dragonflight.
Lessons Learned and the Path Forward
Back in Thaldraszus, Nozdormu reflected on Moraidormi's choice. He acknowledged that some moments were worth changing for compassion's sake, but also that Moraidormi's choice had been exactly that: a choice made with full knowledge of what it would cost. Eternus had spent years interpreting her sister's death as proof that the Bronze Dragonflight valued the timeline more than its members. Seeing the full picture through the rift forced her to reconsider.
Nozdormu and Eternus reached an agreement: they would work together to bring other Infinite dragons away from Murozond's influence. Chromie expressed trust in the player for helping broker that understanding. The final quest, Infinity and Beyond, resolved the chain and unlocked the next chapter in the Reforging Tyr's Guard storyline — the other major 10.1.7 story thread running in parallel.
Questline Rewards
Completing the No Limits chain awarded:
- Ensemble: Temporal Burdens — a Bronze Dragonflight-themed transmog set
- Drake's Shadowflame Crest Fragment
- 15 Flightstones
- 5 Drake's Dreaming Crests and Awakened Crests
The final quest Infinity and Beyond also flagged accounts for the next step in Reforging Tyr's Guard Part 3, continuing the Dragonflight questline that concluded later in Patch 10.2 with the restoration of Keeper Tyr and the Tyr's Guard.
Frequently Asked Questions
What patch was the No Limits questline added in?
Patch 10.1.7 "Fury Incarnate," which went live on September 5, 2023. The questline was part of the patch's two major story threads alongside the Shandris Feathermoon campaign chain and the continuing Reforging Tyr's Guard arc.
Who is Eternus in World of Warcraft?
Eternus is an Infinite dragon who joined the Infinite Dragonflight after her sister Moraidormi's death at the hands of Vexemia, a friend corrupted by the Black Dragonflight. In the No Limits questline, Chromie arranged a meeting that led Eternus to witness the full truth of Moraidormi's sacrifice, ultimately bringing her toward cooperation with Nozdormu and the Bronze Dragonflight.
Who killed Moraidormi?
Vexemia — a dragon who had been Moraidormi's close friend before the Black Dragonflight's corruption turned her against the Bronze Dragonflight. The questline's Time Rift replayed the moment of Moraidormi's death in the Timeless Tunnel in Tanaris across multiple iterations, with the full context only becoming clear after repeated viewings.
What is Murozond's connection to this questline?
Murozond is the corrupted future version of Nozdormu — the Infinite Aspect who leads the Infinite Dragonflight. The No Limits questline explicitly framed the alliance with Eternus as a step toward managing Murozond's influence on the remaining Infinite dragons, setting up future beats in the Dragonflight narrative.
Was the Dawn of the Infinite megadungeon required to start No Limits?
Not after September 8, 2023. At launch, some guides listed the Dawn of the Infinite chain as a potential prerequisite. Blizzard removed that gate in a hotfix three days after Patch 10.1.7 went live. No dungeon run was required to start the No Limits questline from that point forward.
What transmog did the No Limits questline reward?
Ensemble: Temporal Burdens, a Bronze Dragonflight-themed transmog set. The chain also rewarded Drake's Shadowflame Crest Fragments, 15 Flightstones, and Dreaming and Awakened Crests, plus unlocked the next chapter of the Reforging Tyr's Guard questline running parallel in Patch 10.1.7.
