Inside Azeroth: January 2018

January 1st by Blizzard Entertainment

Azeroth’s citizens have survived to fight another day. While the odors of Fel still waft through the air, things seem to be looking up–if the sight of Argus above Azeroth means anything.

There’s more to be done, however, and it’s time once more to take stock in your life on Azeroth and set forth a few resolutions. Will you vow to gain more Achievements? Take your Mythic Keystone difficulty to new heights? Will you fish all the fish of Azeroth? Or, will you simply vow to be a better citizen of the world with good will in your heart for all—except for the opposite faction of course.

After you’ve looked at what’s ahead this month, share your WoW resolution for the year ahead with us in the comments below.

It may be a new year, but the fight against the Burning Legion continues on Argus and in the raid dungeon–Antorus, the Burning Throne.
