PATCH 5.4 IS COMING

Posted 4 hours ago
 
Dear Helios Champions, dear Mists of Pandaria
 
For years you have asked.
For months we have worked in silence.
For countless nights we have refined, rewritten and retested.
 
And now… the time has finally come.
 
📅 April 1st – yes, April Fools’ Day 📅
No tricks. No bait. No illusions.
 
On April 1st, World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria on Helios advances to Patch 5.4 and with it, the full release of:
 
⚔️ Siege of Orgrimmar
The most ambitious and complex raid ever developed on TwinStar.
 
🏆 What Awaits You
 
Siege of Orgrimmar is a 14-boss epic spread across massive wings and multiple environments, beginning in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms and culminating in the depths of Orgrimmar itself.
Among the legendary encounters:
  • Siegecrafter Blackfuse – The mechanical mastermind of the True Horde
  • Paragons of the Klaxxi – Nine mantid champions, each with distinct abilities
  • Garrosh Hellscream – A multi-phase climactic battle featuring the True Horde’s warchief
It was considered in 2013 one of the most mechanically demanding raids ever created and we have rebuilt it with the same ambition.
 
🌴 Timeless Isle
 
Timeless Isle is a dynamic endgame zone built around exploration, rare encounters, and catch-up progression. This endgame zone includes:
  • Timeless Armor token system (ilvl 496 catch-up gear)
  • Burden of Eternity upgrades (ilvl 535)
  • The four Celestial world bosses – Chi-Ji, Niuzao, Xuen, Yu’lon
  • And separately – Ordos, the Fire-God of the Yaungol
🌐 Other Changes
 
Patch 5.4 does not only bring a new raid and a zone — it transforms the world:
  • Vale of Eternal Blossoms is corrupted by Heart of Y’Shaarj.
  • Kor’kron forces tighten their grip over Orgrimmar.
  • The final stage of Wrathion’s legendary quest line is unlocked.
💬 Why April 1st?
 
Because we know many of you will read this twice.
And we love that.
But this is not a joke.
This is the moment many of you have waited for – some of you for years.
 
🔧 What’s Next?
 
As the date approaches, we will release detailed information regarding:
  • Raid opening schedule & unlock system
  • Possible difficulty reductions or tuning phases
  • Progression pacing
  • Additional surprise features (yes… we are keeping some things under the hood 👀)
We are beyond excited to finally share this milestone with you.
 
📅 Make space in your calendar.
Call your guild.
repare your raid teams.
Invite everyone who ever wanted to experience MoP progression at its peak.
 
The Siege begins.
