Hello, Patrons! We hope you’ve been enjoying The War Within as much as we have…but we have to admit, we’re anxiously awaiting the return of our bread and butter: endgame content! Thankfully, the wait is almost over, and we’re excited to remind you about all the fun info and tools we offer for you Mythic+ pushers, Raiders, and Esports enthusiasts!
Last week we unveiled a brand new Perk for all of our Illustrious Patrons - Animated Banners for your Character Profile pages! That's right, you can customize your Character pages even futher with eye-catching animation. We've taken our exclusive class-inspired Banners and added animation. Become an Illustrious Patron and make your Character Profile page stand out amongst the rest!
To access the brand-new Animated Banners, navigate to your Settings and click on an individual Character. Make sure you have "Use Animated Banner" toggled on, and you can then preview them before you make your selection. Banners with the play icon have animation support.




While you're battling the forces of Nerub-ar Palace, don’t forget to grab the RaiderIO client! Why, you might ask?
Faster, more frequent updates both for your client and for your RaiderIO page.
A full list of your characters in a single click, including item level, raid and dungeon progress, and Mythic+ score.
A personal journal of your recent WoW group activity, so you can quickly grab the name of that delightful druid you met in The Stonevault last week.
Live Tracking! Our client powers our entire Live Tracking system, enabling you to access Auto Route Creator, the Mythic+ Replay System, Stream Widgets, and more.
RaiderIO data right at your fingertips in-game, with tooltips providing Mythic+ score, best dungeon runs, raid progress, and guild recruitment status.
All the Warcraft, all the time! The desktop app also supports Cataclysm Classic and Classic Era characters.

Now that heroic week has finally arrived, be sure you’re ahead of the curve with our Stream Widgets. Whether you want to show off your shiny new gear or your guild’s gear composition, share your guild’s progress on each boss, or track boss health per pull, we’ve got a widget for that. Keep your viewers in the know - get those easy-to-use widgets set up today, before raid hype overtakes you!
As much as we love the return of heroic week, you know we’re eagerly awaiting next week and THE RACE TO WORLD FIRST! Don’t forget - RaiderIO is THE place to find 24/7 RWF coverage. What can you find on our Nerub-ar Palace RWF page?
A detailed and interactive RWF Analyzer, with options to compare guilds or track an individual guild’s boss health, gear, or roster changes.
Both world and region leaderboards.
Breaking RWF news with progress and kill updates, boss summaries, detailed analyses, player perspectives, and the ever-popular Team Liquid daily menu, all posted in real time by the RIO LIVE Coverage team.
Daily RWF recap videos tracking the previous day’s must-have news (and memes!).
Discord Alerts so you'll know precisely when a World First (or Region or Realm first!) kill happens, and by whom.

Last, but certainly not least, keep an eye on our shiny revamped Blizzard Tournaments page, the Official home of ALL World of Warcraft Esports!
Soon, you’ll be able to browse the Warcraft Esports Hall of Fame and revisit all the previous esports winners. We’re proud to announce that this tournaments page is the new home for ALL WoW Esports events!
Registration is now open for the upcoming seasons of the Arena World Championship and the Mythic Dungeon International, so get your squads together and join up!

Here’s to another expansion, Patrons! We can’t wait to show you what we have in store for The War Within.
-Aspyr, Ulsoga, and the Raider.IO Team!
(Psst, remember to rep us with our ever-popular apparel, now available in our fancy new merch shop!)
