World Of Warcraft Kicks Off Phase 3 Of Its Dragonflight Alpha Test

World of Warcraft is now on Phase 3 of its ongoing Dragonflight alpha test with new content for tester to try out ahead of the expansion’s release.

The latest alpha phase opens another zone in the Dragon Isles called The Waking Shores, are untamed wildlands awash with elemental magic and the ancestral home of both the red and black dragonflights. The new zone will be where Horde and Alliance players will first land when they embark on their respective expeditions to the Dragon Isles.

Players will also get to explore the new Ruby Life Pools dungeon and will get to test out the newly-reworked Talent Trees for the Mage and Paladin, as well as the new Dragonriding Talent Tree. The Dragonriding Skill Track has also been unlocked and can be accessed via dragonriding trainer Lithragosa in Skytop Observatory. Progression points for the new skill track can be earned by collecting Dragon Glyphs that are scattered across the skies of The Waking Shores. Players will also be able to unlock various achievements by flying through the glyphs.

The latest alpha build also features improvements to leatherworking and jewelcrafting and makes the barber feature free forever, allowing you to get as many haircuts and change your hairstyle as many times as you want.

The cleaned-up Phase 3 alpha patch notes can be found on the World of Warcraft official forums.
