First and foremost, you probably want to know if Dragonriding is available on the Zaralek Cavern map. Yes, it is, and the Embers of Neltharion update also adds six (6) new Glyphs alongside two new Dragonriding traits.<\/p>\n

Below, you can check out the full map for the Zaralek Cavern zone, complete with four main points of interest, including the Aberrus (The Shadowed Crucible) raid<\/a> filled with eight powerful bosses to overcome once it releases.<\/p>\n

The map will, of course, be absolutely filled to the bring with content, including sidequests and the main storyline quests of Embers of Neltharion. While the Zaralek Cavern zone is filled with dangers, the heroes of Azeroth will also meet new allies, which you can learn about more in the next section of this guide.<\/p>\n

New WoW Dragonflight Allies (Factions) in Zaralek Cavern<\/h2>\n

As you venture deeper into the Zaralek Cavern zone, you will come across two new factions that you can befriend and build Renown with for a host of rewards. There are the Drogbar and Niffen allies, and you can learn a bit more about them below, with official descriptions of these new factions in World of Warcraft, as per a Preview post by Blizzard<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The familiar faces of the Drogbar can be found in Glimmerogg. They now have their own culture and embrace some unique interests—lifting heavy things and snail racing. Players can participate in their own race by nudging along a crystal-shelled gastropod named Brulee to gain the Zoom! Achievement and get their own snail pet. Watch out for the slime trail.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

WoW Niffen Faction:<\/h3>\n

These busy molefolk might not see much with their inferior eyesight, but with their distinct nose, their sense of smell is mighty. The entrepreneurial and friendly Niffen make their home in Loamm and they’re always willing to barter and trade with outsiders who pay them a visit. Players can unlock their Renown tracks for rewards once they complete the first chapter of the Embers of Neltharion campaign.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

You can start exploring the massive map of the Zaralek Cavern zone in WoW Dragonflight once the Embers of Neltharion update (10.1) releases on 2 May 2023. Remember, the Aberrus raid opens up one week later, with LFR to follow relatively quickly after that. <\/p>\n
