Forge your Classless Champion

Choose any combination of skills, spells, and talents

Use the Hero Architect to mix and match what you want from any class in the game. Combine archetypes and create a Hero as unique as you. Wear any gear, wield any weapon, and realize any legend: whether you want to be an icy axe wielding Paladin, or a shadowy, plague-bearing Druid, you can play anything you can imagine.

Build as you Level

Every level grants you access to more spells and skills. Adventure through Azeroth and forge your legacy!

Mystic Enchantments

Empower your gear with Mystic Enchantments: mysterious runes that enhance your spells and skills. Strengthen the abilities you love, or unlock entire new archetypes like Arcane Gunner or Flaming Cat Form.

Play your Way

Dungeons, Raids, Battlegrounds, and Arenas for every skill level: whether you want normal or Mythic+ dungeons, Flex or Ascended Raids, there’s a playstyle for everyone.

Different Styles, Same Realm

Swap between PvE and PvP mode whenever you want, all on the same realm. Group with people in different modes at any time and tackle Azeroth’s dangers together.

Forge new Friendships

Thousands of active players and cross-faction grouping means you can always find new friends and adventure together!

High Risk PvP

Enter High Risk PvP: an instanced version of the Open World where you can find raid loot on monsters! But be careful: dying in PvP combat means losing a piece of your equipped gear. 

Challenge yourself in PvE against the strongest bosses of Azeroth!

Rise through the ranks.

Dive into Dungeons and Raids at the difficulty that’s right for you. Ascend through the ranks to reach the pinnacle of challenge! No matter what your skill level, Heroes looking to PvE can find the difficulty that’s right for them: those seeking a true test of skill can dive into custom Classic Mythic+ dungeons and Ascended difficulty raids to face custom mechanics and new dangers.

Seasonal Realms offer a unique twist for Heroes looking for something new. Get all your skills randomly with Wildcard Mode, or draft one skill each level with Draft Mode.

Mystic Enchantments

Mystic Enchantments attach to gear, and can dynamically change the way you play. Use them to empower your favorite spells, and use Legendary Enchantments to unlock incredible cross-class playstyles like holy inquisitors, stealthy rangers, and shadow mages.
