Raider.IO Update - August 2024, with big news!
🕑 Added 2024-08-10 04:12:25 +0000 UTCHello Patrons! We hope you’re all staying cool this month (or warm, for you Southern Hemisphere friends). A new World of Warcraft expansion is just around the corner, and there's tons of stuff happening all around the Community, but we wanted to take a quick moment to bring you some key updates from our side of things.
Including the launch of our NEW Official Raider.IO Merch Shop! That's right, you can now get your hands on the ever-popular RUN KEYS shirt, or choose from a wide variety of Raider.IO designs and apparel options.
To celebrate the launch of the Raider.IO Merch Shop -- and to celebrate you, our Patrons -- we're doing a giveaway! Three lucky Illustrious Patrons will be chosen at random to each win a free Raider.IO T-Shirt. We'll be doing the draw on August 21st, so you still have time to become an Illustrious Patron if you want to enter.
We also have another T-Shirt giveaway going on the Merch Shop itself, open to everyone. So increase your chances of winning some sweet new Raider.IO Merch by heading over there and clicking the link at the top to enter.
With the big news out of the way, it's quite a month for World of Warcraft, so let's dive right in!
END OF EXPANSION TO-DO LIST
Are you ready to wish Dragonflight a fond farewell? Wrap up your to-do list with this handy pre-patch guide from Blizzard. The Season 4 titles may be officially locked in, but our Weekly Routes series will guide you through those last few dungeons for your Keystone Master achievement, or you may want to push for your final IO goals of the expansion with Play Like the Pros.
If you're looking for a good way to catch-up on leveling and gearing characters to prepare for The War Within, the Radiant Echoes Pre-Patch Event is on now until August 26th. It's a fantastic way to quickly level (we went from 50-70 in a couple hours!), and get catch-up gear while you're at it. Learn more about the event here.

We’re closing out Dragonflight with a bang! Break the Meta: The Final push is live NOW, featuring some never-before-seen rules and a fabulous set of new faces on the caster desk! Don’t miss our explosive goodbye to Dragonflight Season 4 – check out the event hub for all the details. It’s not too late to register and get those keys in for some pretty cool prizes!
