About Phase 3.5
Phase 4 adds Zul'Aman, a faster-paced 10-player raid designed for a single evening of content. The timed run mechanic creates exciting speedrun challenges as groups race to save NPC hostages before they're sacrificed.
Successfully completing the timed run rewards the Amani War Bear, one of TBC's most prestigious status symbols. The challenging timer encourages optimized group compositions and efficient play.
New Badge of Justice gear provides catch-up opportunities for players gearing alts or joining late in the expansion.
