Reset times by region
Retail weekly and daily clocks share the same UTC hour per region. Confirmed against Wowhead Today in WoW daily-reset timers after the August 25 US flip.
- US / Latin / Oceanic: weekly Tuesday 15:00 UTC; daily every day 15:00 UTC
- Europe: weekly Wednesday 04:00 UTC; daily every day 04:00 UTC
Next US flip: Tuesday, September 1, 15:00 UTC. EU joins this game week on Wednesday, August 26, 04:00 UTC. Maintenance can delay login a few minutes past the lockout flip — content timers still fire on the clock above.
This week in WoW (August 25 – September 1)
US game week: Tuesday August 25 → next flip September 1 (EU Wednesday August 26 → September 2). Headlines from Wowhead Today in WoW and mythicpl.us:
- Season 2 week two: Venomous Abyss, Mythic+ keys, PvP Season 2, Bountiful Delves
- Mythic+ (US): Voidbound (+5) + Tyrannical (+7); Fortified at +10; Guile at +12
- World boss (US): Predaxas on Wowhead Today in WoW — a second live tracker had not corroborated the name at scrape time
- Weekly events (Wowhead): Northrend Timewalking · Pet Battle Bonus Event · PvP Brawl: Cooking Impossible · Northrend Cup
Mythic+ affixes this week
Ladder is fixed: Lindormi's Guidance +2–5 (removed at +6) → rotating Bargain at +5 → Fortified or Tyrannical at +7 → both from +10 → Guile at +12. Season 2 dungeon pool: Altar of Fangs, Murder Row, Den of Nalorakk, The Blinding Vale, Voidscar Arena, Kings' Rest, Temple of Sethraliss, Ruby Life Pools.
- +5 (US): Xal'atath's Bargain: Voidbound
- +7 (US): Tyrannical
- +10: + Fortified
- +12: Xal'atath's Guile (−15s per death)
EU: Pulsar + Fortified on mythicpl.us until Wednesday August 26. Next US week on that board: Devour + Fortified. Wowhead still showed last week's Pulsar + Fortified at scrape time — confirm with your keystone tooltip.
Before-reset checklist
Do these before the Tuesday/Wednesday flip — vault credit you bank this week pays next Tuesday:
- Claim the Great Vault — Season 2 week-one payout first, then start this week's dungeon row (1 / 4 / 8 timed keys)
- Bank a keystone — Lindormi in Silvermoon hands out keys; never end a week at zero
- Raid lockouts — Venomous Abyss plus Tidebound Grotto lair count toward the raid row
- World boss — Predaxas on US if Wowhead is current; confirm the map marker
- Spend coffer keys on today's bountiful delves (Collegiate Calamity listed on Wowhead)
Weekly events & notes
Wowhead Today in WoW lists Northrend Timewalking Dungeon Event, Pet Battle Bonus Event, PvP Brawl: Cooking Impossible, and Northrend Cup as the headline weekly events. Darkmoon Faire is next listed for early September, not this week. Bountiful Delves show as active on that board.
EU still sits on last week's world boss Thorm'belan until Wednesday reset. mythicpl.us next-week affixes: Devour + Fortified. A second independent affix site (wowaffixes.info) was still dated to the August 19 EU week at scrape time — prefer the keystone tooltip if trackers disagree.
Skip the grind
Short on hours in Season 2 week two? Hand the vault keys, a Venomous Abyss lockout, or a timed +10 to an LFCarry Midnight Mythic+ or raid boost and log in to a finished Great Vault board before the September 1 US reset.
