Battle of Dazar’alor Raid Achievements and Off-Season Details

Crucible of the Storm raid achievements such as Ahead of the Curve and Cutting Edge will be obtainable throughout the off-season. You can continue to earn both of them right up until Azshara’s Eternal Palace opens.

Crucible of the Storms Cutting Edge will be unobtainable when Azshara’s Eternal Palace opens?

We’re already talking about Crucible of the Storms Cutting Edge removal, but Crucible of the Storms raid is not even out for TWO MONTHS, yet!

Is Crucible of Storms releasing with 8.1.5 or after?

Correct. Also, the current plan is for Crucible of Storms Normal/Heroic to open on April 16, 2019, and Mythic/Raid Finder to begin a week later on April 23. Battle of Dazar’alor is still quite new – a majority of organized raiders are working their way through their initial preferred difficulty, with higher difficulties to follow for many, and the final Raid Finder wing of Battle of Dazar’alor just opened this week. “So much death here, so much power.” --Xal’atath

I thought that Crucible of the Storm was meant to be a mid/late Season raid like Trial of Valor with its rewards still attainable within two tiers Emerald Nightmare and Nighthold…

Cutting Edge: Helya

This is madness! Alliance Crucible of the Storms Hall of Fame will be halfway when Eternal Palace begins…

If that’s how those mini raids will work going forward, with a short reward duration with extremely overturned bosses, I hope Crucible of the Storms is the last mini-raid we’ll ever see.
