The sections below cover the dungeon event, reputation bonus, and Ulduar raid rewards in detail.
The Wrath of the Lich King Timewalking event brought back six classic Northrend dungeons scaled to the current expansion's level range: Azjol-Nerub, Gundrak, Halls of Lightning, The Forge of Souls, The Nexus, and Utgarde Keep.
During the event, Archivist Frithrun — located in Dornogal, the previous expansion's capital — offered the main weekly quest via the Adventure Journal. The objective was to complete five WotLK Timewalking dungeons. Completing them awarded the Cache of Nerubian Treasures, which contained one piece of Normal-difficulty gear from the previous expansion’s primary raid, providing a useful catch-up option for players who had not cleared it that week. Players who want a carried run through these dungeons in a future recurrence can book a WotLK Timewalking carry.
Beyond dungeon loot, participants earned the Sign of the Scourge buff for the event's duration, granting a 50% bonus to reputation gains from quests and creature kills associated with all WotLK-era factions. The event was one of the fastest ways to complete outstanding WotLK reputation grinds from earlier expansions alongside current-content play.
Each Timewalking dungeon run also awarded Timewarped Badges, spendable at Auzin in Northrend's Dalaran for transmog, pets, and other WotLK-era collectibles.
✏️ Tip: Players who already had the previous expansion’s primary raid loot locked for the week still benefited from the event via the reputation boost and the Ulduar Timewalking raid, which offered a separate gear cache on a different lockout.The Ulduar Timewalking raid offered the event's most valuable rewards. To access it, players ventured to Dalaran in the Crystalsong Forest and spoke with Vormu at coordinates 50.6, 46.4 to accept the quest Disturbance Detected: Ulduar. The objective was to form a raid group, enter Ulduar, and defeat Yogg-Saron to obtain a Titan Prison Fragment.
Completing the quest rewarded the Cache of Timewarped Treasures. The cache was the source of both the gear reward and the rare mount drops — the mounts did not drop directly from Yogg-Saron's loot table, but from the quest reward bag itself.
| Reward | Details |
|---|---|
| Cache of Timewarped Treasures | 610 ilvl Hero 1/6 piece of gear |
| Rare Mount Drops | Invincible's Reins, Mimiron's Head |
| Base Loot | 597 ilvl Champion 1/8 gear |
Both Invincible's Reins and Mimiron's Head are among the rarest mount drops in WoW, with notoriously low drop rates in their original contexts. The Ulduar Timewalking cache represented one of the few recurring weekly opportunities to attempt both in a single run. Players who wanted additional attempts at these mounts could run the Ulduar Timewalking raid on multiple characters for separate Cache of Timewarped Treasures rolls each week. Players targeting these mounts in a future recurrence of the event can browse our mount farm runs for dedicated Ulduar Timewalking carries.
Six classic Northrend dungeons were included: Azjol-Nerub, Gundrak, Halls of Lightning, The Forge of Souls, The Nexus, and Utgarde Keep. All were scaled to the current expansion's level range with updated loot tables reflecting current-tier item levels.
Completing five WotLK Timewalking dungeons awarded the Cache of Nerubian Treasures, which contained one piece of Normal-difficulty gear from the previous expansion’s primary raid. The quest was picked up from Archivist Frithrun in Dornogal via the Adventure Journal.
Players accepted the quest Disturbance Detected: Ulduar from Vormu in Dalaran (Crystalsong Forest, 50.6, 46.4), formed a raid group, defeated Yogg-Saron inside Ulduar, and received a Titan Prison Fragment to complete the quest. The reward was the Cache of Timewarped Treasures, containing 610 ilvl Hero 1/6 gear and a chance at rare mount drops.
Yes. Invincible's Reins had a chance to drop from the Cache of Timewarped Treasures — the quest reward bag from completing Disturbance Detected: Ulduar — not from Yogg-Saron's direct loot table. Mimiron's Head was also available from the same source.
The Sign of the Scourge buff granted a 50% bonus to reputation gains from quests and creature kills linked to all WotLK-era factions. This applied throughout the event week, making it an efficient time to finish any outstanding WotLK reputation requirements.
Timewarped Badges earned during the event were spent at Auzin in Northrend's Dalaran. The vendor offered WotLK-themed transmog, pets, and other collectibles in exchange for badges accumulated across dungeon and raid runs.
