What’s New in WoW 11.1.7
WoW Patch 11.1.7 introduces new additions and challenges to keep endgame content fresh. Prepare to see enhanced Delves, new questlines, and more. Here is what’s new this week in The War Within.
New 11.1.7 Story Campaign and Lorewalking Questlines
The storyline for The War Within continues with the new questline – Rise of the Red Dawn, which takes place primarily in the Arathi Highlands. There are some extra rewards tied to completing this storyline as well, so make sure to complete it even if you are not interested in the storyline itself.
| 11.1.7 Campaign Rewards | |
|---|---|
| Alliance | Stromgarde Tabard and the title “of Stromgarde” |
| Horde | Hammerfall Tabard and the title “of Hammerfall” |
| Everyone | Lamplighter’s Pauldrons cosmetic |
There is more content for players who enjoy the story of WoW. Alongside this campaign, patch 11.1.7 also adds three storylines from Lorewalker Cho. These storylines will help new players to catch up with the story, and for veterans to refresh their knowledge.
These storylines are available to all characters starting from level 10, making them perfect for both new and returning players.
Delve Updates in 11.1.7
Six Delves across Khaz Algar now feature tougher, overcharged versions in 11.1.7. Each day, two Delves will include a special affix for added challenge, with scaling rewards. There are also new achievements, a toy, and a mount tied to the overcharged delves.

New UI and Accessibility Features
Two new accessibility features are available with the start of 11.1.7: Assisted Highlight and a Single Button Assistant.
Assisted Highlight shows your next recommended ability based on your current situation and resources, while Single-Button Assistant allows you to cast the suggested ability by pressing just one button.
Single-Button Assistant introduces a slight cooldown penalty to the rotation. This way players still need to learn how to play their class to stay efficient and competitive.
Both tools aim to make the game more accessible and can be enabled under Gameplay Enhancements in the options menu.
