WoW The War Within: First Look at the New Nerub'ar Palace Raid

With the upcoming expansion comes a brand new raid, centered around the Nerubian civilization as players will have to enter a terrifying and deadly palace filled with ancient Nerubians. The Nerub'ar Palace raid will be accessible to players once they reach level 80 so be prepared to dive deep into the sanctum of the arachnid race and defeat elite guards and menacing bosses.

With that being said, we will go through everything we know so far about the new The War Within Raid and what players can expect as Blizzard has set high expectations for the newest expansion. Hopefully, they will be able to deliver as many players have been complaining regarding the lack of epic battles and conflicts that would tear up the very fabric of Azeroth and the outside worlds. 

WoW Nerub'ar Palace Raid Bosses and Map

There will be 8 succinct bosses in the new raid as we do not know the entirety of what we can expect in terms of mechanics and gameplay, but since the Nerubian theme is the centerpiece of the raid, we can expect fights involving webs, poison or dealing with swarms of Nerubian warriors. Here is the list of the bosses you will encounter:

1. Ulgrax the Devourer
2. The Bloodbound Horror
3. Sikran, Captain of the Sureki
4. Rasha'nan
5. Eggtender Ovi'nax
6. Nexus-Princess Ky'veza
7. The Silken Court
8. Queen Ansurek

Wowhead was also able to datamine a map of the raid, allowing players to get an early glimpse as to what to expect.
