How Does Mythic Lockout Work?
Mythic difficulty in World of Warcraft has a unique lockout system compared to other raiding difficulties. In Mythic difficulty, players are bound to a raid ID. This means that if you join a Mythic raid and defeat a boss, you will be locked to that specific Mythic raid ID. You will not be able to join any other group with a different Mythic raid ID.
This lockout system ensures that players cannot repeatedly farm the same Mythic raid for loot. Once you have completed a Mythic raid and received loot, you will need to wait until the lockout resets to participate in the raid again.
This lockout system applies to all Mythic raids, regardless of the number of players in the group. Whether it is a 10-man or 25-man raid, the lockout works the same way. Once you have completed a Mythic raid, you will be locked to that raid ID.
Now, let’s explore some frequently asked questions about Mythic lockouts:
1. Can you join another group if you have completed part of a Mythic raid?
No, once you have joined a Mythic raid and completed a boss, you are bound to that specific raid ID. You cannot join any group with a different raid ID.
2. How do mythic dungeon lockouts work?
Mythic+ dungeons have a different lockout system compared to Mythic raids. You can complete as many Mythic+ dungeons as you want, as long as at least one player in your party has a Mythic Keystone. All completed Mythic+ dungeon runs will award loot depending on the level of the dungeon and whether or not you beat the timer.
3. Is there a lockout for Mythic dungeons?
Yes, Mythic dungeons have a weekly lockout. This means that you can only complete a Mythic dungeon once per week for loot.
4. How do M0 lockouts work?
M0 dungeons have a weekly lockout. This means that you can only complete a specific M0 dungeon once per week for loot. However, you can target the same dungeon and run it as many times as you want throughout the week in Mythic+.
5. How do you check Mythic lockouts in WoW?
To check what lockouts your character is currently saved to, press the O key, select the Raid tab, and click on Raid Info in the upper right corner. This will show you a list of current raid lockouts for your character.
6. Can I join another Mythic lockout?
No, the Mythic lockout system still works the same way. Once you have joined a Mythic raid and defeated a boss, you are locked to that raid ID. You cannot join another group for different bosses or continue with a different lockout.
7. Can you do NAXX 10 and 25 in the same week?
Yes, you can do both the NAXX 10 and 25-man raids in the same week. NAXX 10 and 25 do not share a lockout. You can run both raids every week and have a chance to get loot from both.
8. How does Mythic lockout work for Dragonflight?
Mythic difficulty lockout works the same way for Dragonflight as it does for other raids. Once you have joined a Mythic raid and defeated a boss, you will be bound to that specific Mythic raid ID. You cannot join any other group with a different raid ID.
9. Do Mythic dungeons reset daily?
No, Mythic dungeons have a weekly lockout, not a daily reset. This means that you can only complete a specific Mythic dungeon once per week for loot.
10. Can you get loot from Mythic Plus multiple times?
No, you cannot get loot from Mythic Plus dungeons multiple times in the same week. Mythic Plus dungeons have the same lockout system as Mythic dungeons. You can only receive loot once per week from completing a Mythic Plus dungeon.
These frequently asked questions should provide you with a better understanding of how Mythic lockouts work in World of Warcraft. Whether it is for Mythic raids or dungeons, the lockout system ensures that players have a limited number of attempts each week to earn loot. Pay attention to the lockout timers and plan your raiding schedule accordingly. Happy raiding!
