In World of Warcraft’s upcoming Dragonflight Season 4, dungeons are getting a number of changes, with difficulty and rewards both getting reworked.
Heroic dungeons and Mythic dungeons don’t really keep player attention once the Mythic+ season begins. This has meant that Mythic+ felt like the ‘real’ season, with others only getting steady play when introduced. Additionally, Mythic+ has depends on a timer, so there is nothing for those skilled endgame players who want a strategic and methodical challenge without time pressure.
With the rework, Normal dungeons will remain as-is, but Heroic will be tuned up to “Mythic 0”, with rewards and difficulty raised to current Mythic (0). Current Mythic dungeons will get difficulty and rewards boosted up to about a +10 dungeon with affixes. This intends to turn Mythic into a mega-dungeon type experience.
here are more details in the announcement, including how these overhauls affect Crest and Flightstone rewards, as well as a chart and a rundown of how the overall rewards will shift.
