Patch 10.1.5 brought Time Rifts and 10.1.7 brought Dreamsurges to Dragonflight. I meant to talk about them a little so here we are, a season late.

Time Rifts

Time Rifts gave us some interesting lore tidbits around what if scenarios without really delving into time travel shenanigans. I thought it was fun addition and recommend seeing each of the different time rifts.

These are the timelines you visit:

• Azmourne – the Scourge rule Azeroth
• A.Z.E.R.O.T.H. – King Mechagon has taken over Azeroth and defeated organic life
• Azmerloth – everyone is Murlocs
• Azewrath – the Burning Legion won the War of the Ancients
• Azq’roth – the Black Empire rules Azeroth
• Warlands – the Horde and Alliance never worked together and continue to fight
• Ulderoth – the Titans rule Azeroth

Azmerloth might be favorite! During the time rift, you visit Mrrglblight (Dragonblight) during what was the Dragon Soul raid in our universe. Varian Wryngrrlgulgll and Thrallgrulgulgul lead their forces against Deathwingurlugull. If you keep doing the time rift quests, you’ll even meet Alulgultasza de Urgl-Blalul <Queen of the… Murloc… Dragons?>

Here’s the Gill’dan battle pet. Even Gul’dan was a murloc in this timeline!

Poor Bolvar.

In Azmourne, you might come across the Scourge version of yourself.

In the Warlands, the Horde and Alliance continue fighting aerial battles.

This is the Gold-Toed Albatross, one of the mounts you can earn. I farmed the time rifts until I could purchase everything – a variety of mounts, pets, transmog sets, weapons, etc. It was also a useful source of items to put through the catalyst for LFR gear; I like to use world content to collect LFR appearances on classes I don’t play seriously.

Dreamsurges

Dreamsurges were a lot more boring in my opinion with a lot less rewards, but I still did them to buy all the rewards.

This is the Duskwing Ohuna mount.

This mount is actually pretty cool looking – the Renewed Magmammoth. I enjoy all the mammoths this expansion!

Barter Boulders

Lastly, I thought I’d mention that I finished the Barter Boulder grind with the Loamm Niffen!

The final item I needed was the nifty Ponzo’s Scheming Topper. Will I use it much? Probably not. But I have it!
