World of Warcraft has unveiled the schedule for its expanded Turbulent Timeways event, offering seven consecutive weeks of Timewalking campaigns. From now until February 24th, players can journey through every Timewalking expansion, earning new rewards, abundant Timewarped Badges, and a powerful experience buff.
Initially launched in September 2023, the Turbulent Timeways event previously featured five weeks of Timewalking. Players could earn a stackable buff; completing four Timewalking dungeons granted Mastery of Timeways—a 20% experience boost. Completing this for all five weeks awarded the Master of the Turbulent Timeways achievement and the Sandy Shalewing pet.
This year's Turbulent Timeways event is even bigger. Over seven weeks, players will experience a different Timewalking campaign each week, starting with Mists of Pandaria on January 7th and culminating with Cataclysm the week of February 18th. Each week offers standard Timewalking quests, dungeons, raids, and the returning Mastery of Timeways buff.
Securing Mastery of Timeways for five out of these seven weeks grants the Mastery of the Turbulent Timeways 2 achievement and the coveted Timely Buzzbee mount. Each expansion's Timewalking vendor boasts new permanent items, including Season of Discovery transmogs at the Classic vendor. Additionally, the Sandy Shalewing pet is available for those who missed the previous event. The Cache of Nerubian Treasures, awarded for completing the weekly Timewalking dungeon quest, now provides Heroic gear during the Turbulent Timeways.
Following the recent 20th-anniversary event (which included 11 weeks of consecutive Timewalking), players will enjoy a total of 18 consecutive weeks of Timewalking between that event and the Turbulent Timeways.
The Turbulent Timeways' conclusion date offers clues to World of Warcraft's future plans. With the final Timewalking campaign ending February 24th, and considering Blizzard's typical eight-week release cadence and the holiday season, February 25th is the likely release date for World of Warcraft Patch 11.1, Undermined, ten weeks after Patch 11.0.7. Combined with the second run of Plunderstorm (January 14th-February 17th) and The War Within's upcoming major content update, World of Warcraft is starting 2025 with a packed schedule.
