    Well, rather there are rewards, technically more than there was from the BfA one but there still isnt really a commemorative one that is easy to display like the mount from BfA or title from WoD.
    then what are the rewards? like unique mogs?

    i ask because my pc broke and im using like a old as fuck notebook, i can barely do something in a city, so im not sure if i will be able to get those things if they are only available on pre-patch

    I don't get it. This isn't what people were "whining" about. It solved no problems, and added a brand new one. What was the point again?

    Frankly, there is no correlation, and as such I don't think they are related. Blizzard removed them for a different reason. Why that is I can't say, but if they made it so you can't use the ability outside of Shadowlands to appease players who wanted to make it so they didn't have to pick a specific covenant for min-maxing (which they still 100% have to do), I don't know what to say. Blizzard makes stupid decisions, but they aren't this stupid, surely.

    Can we use covenants abilities in RBG (etc) then ? If no, that's a great thing for example. Bad for soloing old BfA content maybe but who cares, we won't have legacy mode

    A "unique" mog, most of the pieces are already available but I believe the Helm, Shoulder and Belt is unobtainable any other way. There is also the pet, though that one will most likely be sellable on the AH. And again, the 34 slot bag, which I believe is one of only 2 you can have on a single character as of this moment.

    is that black warfront set the horde have? i though those things would be selling as token, thats bananas, in fact i only need the helm shoulder to complete that one.

    weird that we will not get another pre-patch mount

    It's the same color as the PvP gladiator set, not the aspirant set. Not sure which one that was for Horde.

    There are 3 tints of the Warfront armor, further there are 3 ranks for each. There is one tint from the Warfronts, one is the Gladiator and Elite Gladiator set, and the last one is the Aspirant set.
    All the ranks are available from the Warfront tint, only 2 from the Gladiator sets and only 1 from the Aspirant version.

    The armor we get in the pre-patch is the final version of the Gladiator set.

    Ahh yes, Rasmongold, my favorite influencer. Or maybe it was ReachGaming, Rowelliee or Rellular.

    Yes it looks like anything effectively current content like rbg and battle grounds you can use them in but old content you can't but essences will still work in old content apparently so maybe a new way of keeping the "borrowed" power stuff still useful when doing content where it was introduced?

    I dunno, maybe he wasnt talking about an influencer afterall, maybe it was the Rlayerbase that wanted it.


    On a more serious note though, I do wonder whetehr Blizzard intends to make expansion specific power work like this going forward. If we assume this change makes it so you cannot use it in instanced PvP then I think it would work as both a narrative tool and a way to maybe balance PvP better seeing as numerical tuning hardly matters there.

    It is definitely a bit of a blow to have to go without what might be a core ability for the entire expansion, especially when Classes are still carrying the taint of post-WoD class design, but it will be interesting to see how it pans out.

    That could be it. Though I feel this would be a case where Blizzard is definitely playing a bit too fast and loose with the internal rules. Either they should make it so it only works on Shadowlands content specifically, that being zones, dungeons and raids. Or they should just allow it to work everywhere. Muddling the waters with PvP is both a hit to realism (no matter how thin it already is) and also missing a golden opportunity to make PvP balancing more streamlined and easier to manage.

    And there we have the release date.

    It won’t be long until the journey into the Shadowland begins. To help you prepare, select character services are available for 30% below their normal price from now through November 15, 2020.
    17th/18th.

  19. #63879
    So they bought themselves 2-3 weeks? Not sure if that is enough to fix all the questing bugs, they certainly didn't seem to have gotten on top of many of the WQ bugs this week
    You are welcome, Metzen. I hope you won't fuck up my underground expansion idea.
