The War Within Mythic+ Season 2 Guide

The War Within Season 2 starts on March 4, 2025, in the Americas, and March 5, 2025, in Europe.

The second season of Mythic+ in The War Within expansion introduces many changes to improve the ecosystem.

• Mythic 0 dungeons award Champion-track gear from each boss, with a weekly instance lockout. The health and damage of enemies in those dungeons has increased to reflect the improved rewards.
• From Mythic 2 through 10, each new level will increase the health and damage of enemies by 7%, down from the previous 10%. Per-level scaling will remain at 10% for Mythic 11+.
• The Xal'atath's Bargain rotation affixes will move up from Mythic 2 to Mythic 4 to replace the Challenger's Peril affix at Mythic 7, with the other one continuing to take effect at Mythic 10.
• At Mythic 12, instead of an additional 10% increase to enemy health, Xal'atath's Gile will now include the increased timer penalty for deaths that was formerly part of Challenger's Peril, as a replacement for rotating Bargain affixes. While the mechanic could feel overly punishing for groups still learning and progressing towards gear rewards, a focus on clean execution remains appropriate for the upper echelons of the system, and removing the extra 10% stats should make the transition into prestige tiers of the system feel easier.
• The requirements to achieve some key reward tiers have been reduced. For instance, Hero-track gear is now available in end-of-run chests from Mythic 6 dungeons; Gilded crests are available from mythic 7 and up.
• The rating requirement for Keystone Legend changed from 2,850 to 3,000 in Season 2.
• Many tank busters have been removed.
• Cast times on critical enemy spells have been significantly increased.

The affix rotation remains unknown for now. This section will be updated when the new season starts.

The pool of dungeons in Season 2 includes the new Operation Floodgate dungeon located in the Ringing Deeps, the four remaining War Within dungeons, two Battle for Azeroth and one Shadowlands dungeon.

• Operation Floodgate;
• Cinderbrew Meadery;
• Darkflame Cleft;
• Priory of the Sacred Flame;
• The Rookery;
• The MOTHERLODE!! (Battle for Azeroth Dungeon);
• Theater of Pain (Shadowlands Dungeon);
• Operation: Mechagon - Workshop (Battle for Azeroth Dungeon).

To reach the dungeons faster, you can use the Timeways portal in Dornogal located at 53.46, 38.71, near Lindormi.

The table below covers all the changes to the Mythic+ rewards structure in Season 2.
