Faceless Masks are an important part of WoW’s Revisited Horrific Visions system. These offer additional challenges, and also are involved in unlocking other masks, as well as several of the mounts found in this WoW update. Faceless Masks are, in essence, the end-game of this system. The original Battle for Azeroth system featured five masks, and while all of those came back, there are three new ones added with update 11.1.5.

There’s no defined order to unlocking the Faceless Masks in WoW’s Revisited Horrific Visions system, either. They all have very specific challenges to overcome, that reward these to you as the player.
All Faceless Masks in WoW Revisited Horrific Visions and how to unlock them
In order for Faceless Masks to be used in a Revisited Horrific Visions run in WoW, at least one party member must have already unlocked it.

If you equip all eight Faceless Masks, each enemy has 200% extra Health/Damage and you obtain +140% extra Corrupted Mementos.

The Faceless Masks all vary in intensity too, depending on how you play the game, and whether or not you have access to things such as healing/tanking cooldowns. A good example is the Faceless Mask of Vengeance, which bolsters nearby enemies when one dies, granting other nearby enemies +15% damage for 20 seconds — and this stacks.
Some masks can feel insurmountable, until you learn to manage your sanity, for example, Faceless Mask of the Long Night, which reduces Maximum Sanity by 50%, and Faceless Mask of the Daredevil, which makes all Sanity damage caused by creatures to increase by 400%. Others, like the new Faceless Mask of the Multitudes, are just horrifying. It more than doubles the amount of enemies, and throws in new, powerful enemies to deal with.

You can visit the Revisited Horrific Visions in WoW by heading to Dornogal, south of the Coreway Tunnel (34.60, 68.45). All you have to do is complete the opening questline, found in this area, interact with the Portal to Horrific Visions, and queue up for the challenge that’s available in the current week.
This will take you to the room where you can check on Tribute Progress, how many Maks you wish to use, or change Soridormi’s specialization, since she can send an NPC Construct to help you get through these challenges. Speak to the Image of Wrathion when you’re ready to start.
