Battle for Azeroth - The Music of Warbringers

VG247 Interview with Gary Platner and Terran Gregory
VG247 did a Battle for Azeroth interview with Gary Platner and Terran Gregory.

• High end cinematics have limitations to how many characters can be created and the Battle for Azeroth cinematic was far more than the CGI team has created before.
• Terran Gregory was personal disappointed that gnomes didn't make it into the cinematic, but thinks that as they grow their capabilities they will be able to showcase many more Alliance and Horde races.
• The Legion epilogues were the "return to the shire" moments of an expansion that ended with a world shattering conclusion. They wanted to bring the story back to terrestrial Azeroth and foreshadow that something will go wrong.
• The story team always discusses how to service both factions and it ultimately comes down to telling a compelling and emotional story.
• You can't set out with a goal to make sure everyone enjoys the story in the same way. That is unattainable.
• The team admires the passion of the fanbase and knew that bringing the story back to a faction conflict was gonna see bold decisions not yet done in WoW.
• They knew that there would be strong reactions to the burning of Teldrassil, but it has exceeded expectations! Alex Afrasiabi was quoted as saying "all those feelings mean we’re doing our job as storytellers, and that the community cares about what we’re doing."
• This single moment got extremely passionate and Blizzard still needs to make sure they make sure their people are being treated with respect, but they admire the passion.
• They enjoy watching the reaction videos to the content, good or bad.
• Storytelling involves highs and lows. Old Soldier would not have had as much impact without the Sylvanas Warbringer short.
• The team still has a lot of work to do to improve the new player experience.
• If something doesn't work the team will come back and refine it.
• They plan to support the game for as long as the player base supports them.
• From today's perspective, the team does not see World of Warcraft coming to an end. The game is evergreen and constantly attended to.
• Gregory says that Alex Afrasiabi designed this expansion like it would be the last. He said not to hold back.
• The team is committed to keeping WoW powerful and relevant as long as they can.

XGN Interview with Gary Platner and Terron Gregory
XGN interviewed Gary Platner and Terron Gregory in Amsterdam!

• Boralus is the shining gem of the expansion in terms of art. The city reflects in the water and so it basically had to be signed twice.
• Terran is most proud of the Broken Shore cinematic.
• Terran is an Alliance Draenei Paladin player while Gary is a Horde Undead Warlock.
• Terran wants to be a gnome paladin.
• Not everyone on the team knows how Battle for Azeroth will end. They don't keep secrets; it's just only having time to give people the information to do their work.

PCWorld Interview with Dusty Nolting
PCworld interviewed Lead Character Artist Dusty Nolting on Battle for Azeroth's Heroes.[/b][/size]

• Dusty loves Saurfang and seems him as a very important character this expansion.
• Allied Races allow the team to take the traditional aspect of an existing race like orcs and draenei and play around with adding cool and new features such as tattoos and horns and such.
• The team comes up with a huge story and the expansions allow them to further this story. It is not necessarily episodic like a television series.
• Exploring the new cultures in Battle for Azeroth has been the most fulfilling part of creating Battle for Azeroth for Dusty.

How to Level Quicker in Battle for Azeroth
If you are a player who is interested mostly in max level content, there are ways of speeding up your leveling process.

Essential Items
Before the new expansion is released, there are a few items that you should stock up on.

• Potion of Prolonged Power: a nice stat increase that you should be using every time before combat, especially during the first few levels
• Defiled Augment Runes, or a Lightforged Augment Rune if you have the required reputation for it. These are a small stat increase, but as long as you always keep one active, they will help out a little.
• Flasks: main stat increase that you should always have active
• Food that increases your secondary stats. You can either stick with food that gives stats after eating, or craft some Sugar-Crusted Fish Feasts, which give Versatility instantly after sitting down to eat
• Drums of Fury: great for speeding up fights against named enemies
• Goblin Glider Kit: unless you’re a Demon Hunter, you should probably have a few of these to help you easily get to places from mountains.
• Reins of the Azure Water Strider: having a mount that can walk on water can be very beneficial at times

Legendaries
During your leveling process, legendaries will be available up to level 116, after which they just become items with high ilvl.
Depending on the class and specialization you play, you will want to have at least two gear sets saved, but there may be more.

• Combat Gear Set: this is what you will wear for most of your leveling process. Keep in mind that items such as Sephuz's Secret can be procced on cooldown while leveling, as long as you have an ability to do so.
• Speed Set: moving around faster saves a lot of time when leveling.
• Optional Defensive and AoE Set: if you feel like you might be a little undergeared, a defensive set to help you kill named enemies might be necessary. You can also make a gear set with AoE legendaries if want to group up more mobs.
• Level 116 and Above: because legendaries lose their special effect, at this point you will want to equip two legendaries with the most stats on them.

Artifact Weapon
Hold on to any high ilvl relics you might have, even if they have bad traits on them. The artifact traits and relics become inactive while leveling, so having your weapon be at its highest possible ilvl will be the only thing that matters.


War Mode
Unless you’re uncomfortable with PvP, you should definitely enable War Mode for the 10% experience bonus, and the access to 3 new talents. PvP talents can offer very nice offensive, as well as defensive options when leveling, which on certain classes will speed up this process significantly.


Add-Ons
There are a few Add-Ons which can help you out during leveling, especially when it comes to pathing, and efficiency. Azeroth Auto Pilot (from the creator of ConsLegion) will guide you through a predetermined questing path, and give you specific directions on exactly what you should be doing. It also has a few other features, such as automatically accepting and turning in quests, which saves time.
If you want to follow your own questing path, you should use Auto Quest Turn In.


Leveling Tips
Here are some suggestions to make the process as efficient as possible.

• The first expansion quest kicks off in Silithus, so you can wait at Magni for release. He will give you the Heart of Azeroth and your first Azerite Armor Piece.
• Level through your continent's 3 zones -
  
  • Suggested Alliance Order - Drustvar then Tiragarde Sound then Stormsong Valley
  • Suggested Horde Order - Zuldazar then Nazmir then Vol'dun
• Save your foothold War Campaign quests for after you complete a zone. Doing all 3 gives about one level. After your first zone is complete return to your capital hub to start the quest.
• Instead of vendoring quest rewards, take them to the scrapper after each zone. This will reward you with reagents and Expulsom (the new Blood of Sargeras).
• At 120 you will mainly gear up by queuing for normal dungeons (item level 310 gear) until you have a item level 305 and can gear for heroic dungeons (item level 325 gear).
• Make sure to do your 10 Regular Mythic Dungeons for the week. (Note that you can manually zone into heroic dungeons with a 5 man group under the required item level.)
• You need to have all reputations to friendly to unlock Battle for Azeroth world quests. Finish up any lingering quests until you make this requirement.
• Prioritize the Champions of Azeroth reputation as each rank gives you +15 item level to your Heart of Azeroth, as well as a 355 item level Azerite Armor piece at exalted. Purchase a Contract: Champions of Azeroth as soon as possible!
• You will want to work on getting 7th Legion / Honorbound reputations to revered for the War Campaign Completion and to unlock the Allied Races.

Patch 8.0.1 Recap
If you are just coming back, be sure to take a look at the Patch 8.0.1 recap for all of the system changes made to the game.



Class Guides
Icy Veins is ready to go with updated class guides!



New Continents
Battle for Azeroth introduces two new continents with 3 zones each to explore! Each faction levels in their respective zone and utilizes both continents for max level. Click the maps below for in depth previews!

• Kul Tiras (Alliance) - Tiragarde Sound, Drustvar, and Stormsong Valley
• Zandalar (Horde) - Zuldazar, Nazmir, and Vol'dun

Heart of Azeroth Necklace and Azerite Armor System
Battle for Azeroth has a new system of gear progression that involves the new Artifact necklace you receive right away, Heart of Azeroth, and Azerite Armor slots. Click below for a complete guide on how this new system works.



Island Expeditions
Battle for Azeroth brings a new Island Expeditions feature. Taking what the team liked from Mists of Pandaria's scenarios and stepping it up, these expeditions take a team of three players to uncharted islands across the Great sea in search of Azerite against advanced AI opponents.

• The first team to collect a certain amount of Azerite wins.
• Each island is randomly generated and so there is always something unique and new to find.
• The enemy AI does not behave like normal scripted creature AI. They will fight in a much more unpredictable way.
• Island Expeditions are role agnostic, meaning that they do not require a Tank, Healer and DPS in order to succeed.
• Difficulties include Normal, Heroic and Mythic.
• There is also a PvP mode where the enemy AI is replaced with 3 players of the opposite faction.

Warfronts
Warfronts are 20 man PvE large scale battles in which a team fights for control of a strategic point against the opposite faction AI.

• Stromgarde in Arathi Highlands is the first Warfront.
• Each faction will periodically take control of Arathi Highlands by doing a Warfront.
• The faction who doesn't control Arathi Highlands contributes resources to open up the ability to get it back.
• Having control of Arathi Highlands gives you access to rares and a world boss.
• Gear is a reward for completing a Warfront.

Arathi Highlands Visual Updates
Arathi Highlands has received some major upgrades for level 120 characters who unlock Warfronts during the war campaign.



Battle for Azeroth Dungeons
Each faction has 4 leveling dungeons. All dungeons open up to both factions at level cap. Keep in mind that Kings' Rest and Siege of Boralus will only be available as Mythic dungeons, unlocked as you work through your war campaign.



Mythic Plus Changes and Additions
Blizzard has continued to build upon the Mythic Plus system for Battle for Azeroth, adding in some changes!

• You can no longer swap gear while in a Mythic Plus dungeon.
• Mythic Plus will now have seasons much like PvP. This includes seasonal achievements such as Battle for Azeroth Keystone Conqueror: Season One and Battle for Azeroth Keystone Master: Season One.
• These seasons will also feature seasonal affixes. Season One will have Infested.
• Tyrannical and Fortified are now Keystone Level 2 affixes, meaning every Mythic Plus dungeon will contain one or the other.
• Your weekly Mythic + chest can now contain up to 3 pieces of gear.

Allied Races

• Dark Iron Dwarves are available to unlock for Alliance at launch.
• Mag'har Orcs are available to unlock for Horde at launch.
• Kul Tiran Humans will be available for the Alliance to unlock at a later date.
• Zandalari Trolls will be available for the Horde to unlock at a later date.

Battle for Azeroth PvP Changes
Several new additions to PvP are now live!

• Doing PvP activities rewards you with Conquest Points again! You will receive a piece of gear when you reach the cap for the week.
• War Mode Bounties introduced in the pre-expansion patch continue in the new continents.
• War Mode Air Drops introduced in the pre-expansion continue in the new continents.
• The Dueler's Guild is a new location in the faction hubs that lets you queue up to fight other players one on one in a style similar to Brawler's Guild.
• New Arenas
  
  • Hook Point (Kul Tiras)
  • Magumbala (Zandalar)

Battle for Azeroth World Bosses
Battle for Azeroth has 3 new world bosses on each continent and 2 faction specific ones in Arathi Highlands for a total of 8 new bosses. Each one has a world quest associated with them and operate much like in Legion. The faction who controls Arathi Highlands has access to their boss during that time.



Battle for Azeroth Reputation Guides
Battle for Azeroth will feature a variety of new reputations to grind to exalted. Click below to learn more about each of them and what they have to offer. Especially important is the Champions of Azeroth faction, as they provide a boost to your Heart of Azeroth as you earn more reputation.



Additional Enemy Territory Flight Path Camps
As you progress through your War campaign you will set up foothold bases in each zone of the enemy continent. Initially, these are your only base of operations and flight paths in the continent, but gaining reputation with the 7th Legion/Honorbound will allow you to purchase Scouting Reports in order to unlock more flight path camps throughout the continent. Upon purchasing one of these reports you must complete a mission at the mission table to receive the quest to head to the location on the map and unlock the flight path.

Alliance Flight Path Scouting Reports

• Honored (50 War Resources to purchase)
  
  • Scouting Report: Grimwatt's Crash

Battle for Azeroth has continued the world quest system and there is a multitude of new quests and emissaries. To unlock world quests you must reach Level 120 and complete the quest Uniting Kul Tiras (A) or Uniting Zandalar (H). This means that you must also have completed the War Campaign quests up this point, which involves doing all three war campaign foothold quests in the zones on the opposite continent.

• Emissaries can reward Azerite Armor Caches.
• Each faction will have World Quests on both continents at max level.
• World Quests are a good source of Azerite.
• World Quests can also give bonus reputation as a reward.

Battle for Azeroth Professions
As with any expansion, Battle for Azeroth offers a variety of new recipes and items to craft or gather. Click below to find out just what is being added for each profession!

• Kul Tiran and Zandalari Professions are now available to learn and level!
• Each profession is separated into expansions and leveled separately from one another.
• Each expansion has its own leveling path for items from that expansion, similar to the Mists of Pandaria cooking.
• You can choose to go back and level older expansion crafting, or you can simply level the current expansion.
• This allows you to craft items with current expansion materials without needing older expansion materials to level.
• You can still go back and level older expansion crafting skills as well.
