Blizzard is getting ready to deploy the 5.2 patch for its MMO World of Warcraft, and the company is offering a detailed schedule for players, allowing them to prepare their gaming time for the next few weeks.

Raid Finder wings and difficulties will not be launched at the same time.

The schedule currently is:

March 6 – Normal Throne of Thunder March 13 – Heroic Throne of Thunder and LFR Wing 1 - Last Stand of the Zandalari March 20 – LFR Wing 2 - Forgotten Depths April 3 – LFR Wing 3 - Halls of Flesh-Shaping April 17 – LFR Wing 4 - Pinnacle of Storms

The team states, “To access the new Raid Finder wings you will need a minimum average item level (ilevel) of 480.”

Patch 5.2: The Thunder King for World of Warcraft also introduces more items, new areas and one entire battle with a boss level character.
