Meet Dottie, the adorable baby alpaca. When you adopt her in-game or in plushie form, you’ll be helping Make-A-Wish® and WE charities aid children in need.
When you purchase the in-game pet by December 31, 2019* in the Blizzard Shop or the in-game shop, we’ll donate 100% of the purchase price** to be shared equally with Make-A-Wish® and WE.
Dottie is ready to leave Vol’dun and bound happily alongside you, exploring new frontiers. You may find yourself humming songs about her before long!
You can also purchase Dottie in a loveable plushie form on the Blizzard Gear Store, and every purchase made by December 31, 2019 will also help support Make-A-Wish and WE.

Raid Testing Schedule - December 6th - December 9th

On Friday, December 6th, we will be continuing our raid tests in Ny’alotha, the Waking City. Following the scheduled mythic testing on Friday, the first wing of Looking for Raid will be available for testing.
Friday, December 6th
Dark Inquisitor - Mythic Ny’alotha, the Waking City
13:00 PST (16:00 EST, 22:00 CET)
Ra-den - Mythic Ny’alotha, the Waking City
14:00 PST (17:00 EST, 23:00 CET)
Vision of Destiny - Looking for Raid Ny’alotha, the Waking City
15:00 PST (18:00 EST, 00:00 CET)
As always, this testing schedule is very fluid and subject to the realities of a test environment. We might have to change the time of a testing session, change the bosses being tested, or cancel a test entirely, due to bugs, server hardware issues, etc. Keep an eye on this forum for the latest information, and thank you in advance for testing and providing feedback.
Q: How do I get into the raid zone?
A: In Zuldazar, Boralus, Dalaran, Orgrimmar, or Stormwind, you may speak to Nexus-Lord Donjon Rade III in order to teleport into the raid zone while it is open for testing. (The option to teleport into a zone will not be available when the zone is not open for testing.)
Q: What character should I use to test the raid?
A: Whichever you prefer. We will be scaling players’ effective level to 120 for raid testing, and their item level to an appropriate threshold for the encounter(s) being tested.
Q: How long does testing last?
A: The primary purpose of testing is to give us the information we need to balance the encounters, evaluate how mechanics are playing out in practice, and identify bugs. Once we’re satisfied that we’ve received that information for a given boss, we’ll be shutting down testing. Usually this takes anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours, but there are no guarantees.
