World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade Classic has a new update that brings the Zul’Aman raid. Patch 2.5.4 also introduces new accessibility options and bug fixes.
Zul’Aman is a 10-man raid located in the Ghostlands where you will face the devious warlord Zul’jin and his cohorts. There’s a timer that starts ticking whenever you enter the instance. This timer is significant because the first four bosses in this zone each have a hostage that you need to rescue. When it runs out, all of the remaining hostages will be killed. But rescuing a hostage will give you extra time, in addition to a chest that contains some extra loot. Be sure to bring all of the hostages to safety to get an Amani War Bear epic mount.
Aside from the Zul’aman raid, Patch 2.5.4 also introduces new accessibility options, including Text-to-Speech and Voice Chat Transcription. You can learn more about them here.
