WoW: A Beginner’s Guide To Mythic & Keystones

New players will get scared away whenever they hear anything about Mythic. And in this case, there is Mythic and a Plus at the end. This here little guide is to show that these dungeons are not so scary after all. Let’s get started.

A Beginner’s Guide To Mythic & Keystones – WoW

A lot of players assume that Mythics Plus is way out of their reach and think it is extraordinarily hard. Beginners try to stay far away from it for no good reason. There are a few reasons as to why you should definitely give Mythic Plus a try:

• It’s easy
• Level difference is just higher DMG and HP of the bosses making it very simple
• Natural progression from Mythic dungeons(not big difference than Heroic dungeons)
• Really good loot

You need to be at Level Cap to do any Mythic dungeons and you can join only by the LFG feature which puts you in a queue. You can play with friends to join easily or grab your own Mythic + Key and set up your own group.

To get a Mythic Plus Key you will need to complete your first Mythic dungeon of one expansion. Basically, the last boss of any dungeon will drop you the Keystone.

To start Mythic Plus you need to open your Dungeons and Raids and select the Premade Groups Tab. Here open Dungeons and here you can just type in Mythic and search away. You will select which dungeon your Key is for and make sure you have a Mythic + selected as a difficulty.

Once your group is formed, you’re going to travel to the Dungeon, and don’t forget to change your Dungeon Difficulty to Mythic + before you enter it. Once you enter, place your Key inside. Do not press Activate or Go before your party is ready!

The Difficulty increases naturally as the Key level increases. It goes all from an 8% increase to 26% on level 5 and so on, up to level 10 it’s gonna raise till +85% and on the maximum level 15 it will be +172%. The HP, Damage increases.

There are different Tiers for these dungeons:

• Tier 1 – Level 2 to 3
• Tier 2 – Level 4 to 6
• Tier 3 – Level 7 to 9
• Tier 4 – Level 10+

If you complete a dungeon very efficiently or with fewer deaths, your Keystone will level up and rank up a Tier:

• Beating the timer with 20% time left – 1 upgrade
• Beating the timer with 40% time left – 2 upgrades
• Beating the timer with 40% + time left – 3 upgrades

If you fail the timer but complete the dungeon, you’ll get -1 downgrade

For finding the weekly rotations on how to better prepare your dungeon party, you can check out MythicPL, they update the list frequently.

If you lose your Key, do not panic. Just go to Ta`hsup in Oribos. From here you can buy yourself another key that you can level up from the beginning. With this same vendor, you can downgrade your Key if dungeons start becoming very hard for you.
