With Dragonflight pre-patch Phase 2 launching on live servers today, we prepared a guide with all the new content that becomes available. Check it out!
Required XP Per Level Changes
Even with Winds of Wisdom gone, you can quickly level your characters. Blizzard has significantly reduced the XP required per level in Phase 2 of the pre-patch.
Currently, on live servers, you need 4,742,270 XP to reach Level 60. However, after the nerf, you will only require 2,086,405 XP, which means 57% less XP will be needed to hit the maximum level starting November 15. The most significant nerf (70-73%) was made in the 49-60 level range. Leveling is still fast, even without the +50% XP buff.

Dragonflight Pre-Patch Event
Primal Storms are starting today.
Periodically, up to four locations in Azeroth will be under attack by Primalist forces — Badlands, Northern Barrens, Tirisfal Glades, and Un’Goro Crater.
Your job is to repel the invading elementals for loot and a currency that can be turned in for item level 252 catch-up gear.
The pre-patch event quest can be started by characters level 10 and above. You will receive a bronze drake mount to help you finish the quest in Stormwind and Orgrimmar.
An invasion consists of two stages.
Stage 1: Defeat creatures in active primal storm locations until the Elemental Protection bar reaches 0. The invasion boss is invulnerable at this stage.
Stage 2: Defeat the invasion boss.
You can earn a pet, a toy, a Feat of Strength achievement, a 20-slot reagent bag, and an Heirloom Trinket from the event.
Playable Dracthyr Evokers
Early access to Dracthyr Evokers starts today for those who pre-ordered the Dragonflight expansion.
Dracthyr Evoker starts at Level 58 in the Forbidden Reach.
Upon completing the intro questline, Dracthyr Evokers will be at Level 60 (the current max level).
We have a gearing guide available for Evokers and returning players available here.
For more details about Dracthyr Evokers, check out our comprehensive guide posted earlier today.
Uldaman: Legacy of Tyr Dungeon
Players can queue up for Uldaman: Legacy of Tyr Dungeon at Level 60 during the pre-patch event for Item level 278 loot. Do not forget to pick up the associated quest from Khadgar for item level 278 weapons.
Chromie Time Changes
You can now select any expansion to reach Level 60 in Chromie Time, including Shadowlands.
