March on Quel'Danas: nerf and change history
The timeline separates the release schedule, bug fixes, flex scaling, and intentional difficulty changes. Undocumented pre/post numbers are not filled with guesswork.
| Date | Documented change | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| 3/31/2026 | Normal, Heroic and Mythic unlocked. | Raid Finder and Story Mode opened on April 7, 2026. |
| 4/13/2026 | Belo'ren's Mythic stage 2 health was reduced by 10%, Ashen's Benediction was halved, and the frequency of Guardian's Edict was reduced. | The long end phase and stacking pressure of the first Boss was eased. |
| 4/29/2026 | Midnight Falls' Eclipsed scaling, Starsplinter pace, and Overkill Current damage were reduced. | The lethality of small groups and Heroic progression decreased. |
In retail raids, the latest Blizzard hotfix and the game's Adventure Journal are the primary source of truth for the numbers.
