World of Warcraft’s upcoming raid, Amirdrassil: The Dream’s Hope, begins PTR testing soon with players getting a chance to try out the first couple of bosses on Heroic difficulty, but it will be a while before players get a chance to earn loot from them on live servers.
While the raid isn’t out yet, information on the PTR can help us learn more about what to expect in the coming weeks and months. Additionally, Blizzard’s posts to their official forums give us an idea of exactly what the plan is for testing these bosses ahead of their official release later this fall.
