TapferkeitspunkteRute des BernformensClick the cut to read the guide!Challenge Mode Overview

Challenge Modes are timed instance runs in which your gear is scaled down to ilvl 463. This ensures that running these instances will be challenging even in later tiers--you can't outgear it. In addition, the pulls are more complex than on Heroic mode, and mobs do much more damage.

There are three tiers of rewards: Gold, Silver, and Bronze, which are obtained based on how quickly you complete the zone. We've listed these rewards below, which include mounts, titles, teleports, and transmoggable armor with special effects.

Mechanisms have been added to prevent skipping trash, primarily a requirement that you kill a minimum number of trash mobs to complete the zone.

Challenge Modes are an efficient way to get Tapferkeitspunkte. There are daily challenge mode quests that reward between 60 and 80 Tapferkeitspunkte. This is on top of the additional amounts of Tapferkeitspunkte you get for completing a timed run: 5 Tapferkeitspunkte for Gold, 0 Tapferkeitspunkte for Silver, 5 Tapferkeitspunkte for Bronze.

RewardshereGold Reward: Transmog Gear

For completing Herausforderungsmeister: Gold, you'll get a full eight-piece set of epic transmoggable gear.

These armor sets have unique visual procs when casting certain spells--we've included links to Blizzard's videos documenting these effects.

This gear is initially mailed upon completion of the achievement--if you've lost it, you can buy it back from Herausforderer Soong or Herausforderer Wuli.

When getting the Gold achievement for completing a particular instance, you will get a teleport spell to that dungeon. All teleport spells are on a shared 8 hour cooldown and reset when a Challenge Mode has been successfully completed.

The teleport rewards are pretty convenient with Have Group Will Travel gone. Here's a list below:

Gearing Rules

Any item above ilvl 463 are scaled down to ilvl 463; items that are 463 or below are not affected or scaled up.

Any trinket of ilvl 463 or higher is a valid choice because of the wide selection of unique procs, so you have a wide array of trinkets to consider compared to armor.

For specs that use hit and/or expertise (all non-healing specs), if you were hit/expertise capped normally, you will remain hit/expertise capped in a Challenge Mode.

Tier set bonuses are not active, and neither are Sha-Touched Gems.

Stats from consumables, enchants, other gems, and profession bonuses are not reduced.

It is currently unknown how scaling effects on 5.2 legendary metagems will work.

Instance Rules

cannot be used in a Challenge Mode.

If you release, you get rezzed at the instance's entrance.

Unlike other dungeons, Challenge Modes can be reset as many times as you like (the group leader will have a special menu option that sends you back to the beginning, respawns the zone, and resets the timer). There is no hourly cap or daily lockout.

Bosses do not drop loot and gear does not take a durability loss.

You cannot swap party members without exiting and fully resetting the zone.

All class cooldowns longer than 3 minutes reset when you reset the zone, as well as item cooldowns like Geringer Unsichtbarkeitstrank and Unsichtbarkeitstrank.

You can respec/reglyph during the run, as long as you're out of combat.

Useful ItemsInvisibility

Unsichtbarkeitstrank:
Grants Invisibility for 18 seconds.

Puts all other potions on a 10 minute cooldown

Can only be used out of combat.

Any action ends the invisibility, so make sure to use speed boosts like Anstachelndes Gebrüll before activating your potion.

Usually used once per zone to skip the maximum allowed number of trash mobs.

If you have a Rogue, Verhüllender Nebel can be used instead, which doesn't put your other potions on a long cooldown.

Reagents: Geisterpilz, Sonnengras, Kristallphiole.

Geringer Unsichtbarkeitstrank

This is the cheaper version of Unsichtbarkeitstrank which is sometimes sufficient.

It is taught by Alchemy trainers at 165 skill.

Reagents: Blassblatt, Wildstahlblume, Kristallphiole

Unsichtbarkeitsfeld

"Permanently attaches thousands of tiny mirrors to your belt, allowing you to attempt to turn invisible while out of combat."

Lasts 15 seconds, on a 3 minute cooldown.

Requires 450 Engineering to use. Reagents are Bausatz des Tüftlers.

In past expansions, it appears there was a chance for the invisibility to break early. This seems to have been removed in MoP.

Consider having this on an extra belt and Nitrobooster on your main belt if an Engineer.

Stats

Trommeln der Vergessenen Könige:
Gives all members of the raid or group the Blessing of Forgotten Kings, increasing Strength, Agility, and Intellect by 4% for 30 min.

Useful if you don't have a Priest, Warlock, or Warrior.

Health/Mana

Erneuernder Bern:
Allows you to eat/drink twice as fast as regular food (the tooltip is incorrect).

Requires Honored with Die Klaxxi to purchase.

Will not break if you are pulled into combat.

Stuns you when you use it, so you will need to click off buff to stand up.

Not usable in combat.

Goldkarpfenbrühe

If you are doing practice runs and want cheap food, this restores the most mana without overriding your stat food buffs.

It is now sold by many vendors in Patch 5.1.

Movement

Goblingleiter:
Permanently attaches a specialized folding assembly to a cloak, allowing you to deploy a goblin glider and fall slowly for 30 sec.

On a 3 minute cooldown, with a two minute slowfall buff duration. Requires 500 Engineering to use.

Reagents: Bausatz des Tüftlers

Nitrobooster

Greatly increases run speed for 5 seconds. Your runspeed is increased to 250%, which stacks multiplicatively with other runspeed talents.

Trommeln des Tempos

Schematic trained by Engineers at 525. Materials are 2x Geistereisenbolzen and 2x Hochexplosives Schwarzpulver

This is also commonly found in Blingtron-4000-Geschenkpaket.

Fast volle Polyformsäurephiole

Does additional damage against Dunkelmeister Gandling with the buff Polyformsäure.

Can be obtained during a normal-mode run of Scholomance.

After killing Professor Snehp, all players can loot Leere Polyformsäurephiole and fill it with the acid potion on the table.

Schlachthorn

Lets you aggro everything in 40 yards easily, on a 2 minute cooldown.

This item is not a trinket--it does not need to be equipped to be used.

Drops from Schwarzhuf in Tal der Vier Winde.
