Blizzard has announced another round of dungeon adjustments for the War Within season 3. These changes go live on Tuesday, September 9 with the weekly reset across all regions. The focus this week is on Ara-Kara, City of Echoes and Halls of Atonement, with tweaks aimed at reducing mob density, adjusting cooldowns, and fine-tuning damage output.

  • Resonant Barrage initial cooldown increased
  • Resonant Barrage ability cooldown increased by 50%
  • Resonant Barrage periodic damage reduced by 12.5%

Engorged Crawler

  • Venomous Spit ability cooldown increased by 40%

Avanoxx

  • Starved Crawler health reduced by 20%
  • Gossamer Onslaught periodic damage reduced by 17%

Anub’zekt

  • Fixed an issue with Eye of the Swarm where the rim visual was larger than the actual safe zone

Halls of Atonement

  • Reduced the number of Depraved Obliterators and Depraved Collectors near each Shard of Halkias
  • Reduced creature density in the courtyard before Echelon
  • Enemy forces requirement reduced by 10%
  • Stoneborn Slasher enemy force value increased by 50%

These changes are designed to smooth out difficulty spikes and make pulls feel more manageable, especially in Mythic+. The adjustments to mob density in Halls of Atonement should make routes less punishing, while Ara-Kara’s tuning reduces damage pressure from several bosses and trash mobs.
