Patch 7.3.5 PTR - Build 25716

[Lahis]

Gonna be major pain in the ass to grind those extra concordance ranks if they don't increase AK level beyond 55 :P

Getting from Artifact level 75 to 101 (current cap) takes 917 times as much AP as does getting from level 1 to 75. Adding 50 more levels to that is just insanity :E

[Bronan]

Guess I'll level an alliance as soon as 7.3.5 drops, and enjoy the new leveling, since need a 110 anyway.

Just hope I don't need exalted Army of light/Argussian on it, because I have that like many times on Horde, but the 300% rep catchup BoA tokens don't work for Argus (tokens work, not the bonus from the book)

They never said you need exalted with Army of Light, that would be incredibly stupid as it would take a month+ or so of every day grind to get exalted with AoL, making unlocking them completely retarded in BFA when everyone has moved on from Legion. While at the same time, you can get exalted with Nightfallen in several days just from doing their quest chain and the order hall missions time gate.

They pretty much have to, cause otherwise it's just impossible.

Trait 101 (Concordance 50) takes 200.000.000.000.000 AP, that's 50.000 Big WQ 4B tokens for 1 trait. And that's not concordance 51+

Well, we don't know the exact requirements for Allied races, some rumors are out that some require rep, now if it's exalted or less is not known. Probably less for Argus races, as like I said , Nathrezim tome of +200% rep doesn't work for Argus. But it makes Nightfallen/Highmountain like only need 10 x 1500 tokens from Neutral (from order hall missions)

[MrExcelion]

"CHAR_CREATE_LEVEL_REQUIREMENT_ALLIED_RACE - You must have an existing character of at least level 110 on this realm to create an Allied Race character."

Why does it matter realm-wise?

[MakeMeLaugh]

CHAR_CREATE_LEVEL_REQUIREMENT_ALLIED_RACE - You must have an existing character of at least level 110 on this realm to create an Allied Race character.

This has to be a joke...

Why do you assume you're supposed to reach that cap? Always seemed to me like AP was something they wanted you to grind all throughout legion.

Whaaaat! I was counting on account wide unlock so I could start new races on a new realm as a 'fresh start' sense, don't do this to me Blizz! Why should it matter what realm I have a 110 on, if I've done the content and unlocked the races I want? :<

[DonSerrot]

CHAR_CREATE_LEVEL_REQUIREMENT_ALLIED_RACE (New) - You must have an existing character of at least level 110 on this realm to create an Allied Race character.

This... has got to be a placeholder or something. It kinda makes sense to have SOME level requirement since they start at lvl 20 and I'm sure they don't want people to just flood servers with allied races because they cut a little time off the leveling. I'd say require something like lvl 30 on the server or something in that range. If you REALLY want to play that allied race you can still grind it out but you have more incentive to play the character you already invested time into leveling.

I would go so far as saying level 20 as that's where the allied races start. 110 seems needlessly excessive as a restriction as you already need to have unlocked them which requires a high level character on whatever server. Adding a requirement for 110 on the realm you create on seems overkill.

Maybe BfA is just really, really long time from release and we need somethign to keep us busy? :P

A cynicist could say that this is ActiBlizz's ploy to sell realm transfers/character boosts (which is to 110 in Legion) when people want to roll new Allied characters.

"Don't have 110 on the realm you want to play in? You can always transfer one for $25 or boost a dummy for $60!"

[Caaethil]

Yeah but you literally can't get to that cap with current AK, so it makes little to no difference in terms of the longevity of AP.

EDIT: Also, please Blizz, don't make us need a 110 on every realm we want to roll an allied race on. It makes no sense. I want to grind out the heritage sets with my friends. We all play on different servers and we'd like to roll these characters on the same server.

I don't even mind that it seems we'll need a 110 on both factions to unlock all 6. Just don't lock anything to realms.

[Deleted]

Okay so they're basically sayin allied races come in 7.3.5!

Next question is: When does the flippin patch release?

[Dervrak]

God damn, why Blizzard is so annoying and restrictive.

Allied race creation disabled on fresh realms is absurd.

Time Sink.

Got to keep those subscriptions up during the content drought between now and BfA release somehow. We'll probably be lucky if they don't block heirloom armor and weapons from being used on allied races or remove the XP boost from heirlooms. They already removed Elixers of the Rapid Mind (300% XP Boost) and increased the experience needed per level.

[Dastreus]

Did they fix the authenticator not recognized bug, yet? I posted on the PTR forums awhile ago, so did a lot of others. We have physical copies, linked to acct (how do I check what it's linked to, btw), and yeah, we cannot access the 4 bag slots.

[Dartz1979]

hmmm not account wide... realm only eh ill have to start leveling my hordes to 110 i guess.

[Bormec]

Orgrimmar > Orgrimmar Embassy - Name changed from "Orgrimmar > Goblin Slums" to "Orgrimmar > Orgrimmar Embassy"

Clearly the Horde respects their new allies SO MUCH!

“Hey, Nightborne, we understand you come from an opulent, magic-infused wonderland that survived for over 10,000 years. Please enjoy your time in this place where the little green creatures used to defecate and blow things up.”

[huth]

3-5 ranks would have sufficed. Just one would have given them a few extra years. 50 gives them more time than the entirety of human history down to when we were still hanging from the trees without extra AK.

[Florida Man]

Wait a minute. So if I, as Alliance, have no Horde characters but I am exalted with Nightfallen on my Alliance character, I can't start a Nightborne asap because I still need a high level Horde character to do some gimmick scenario at 110 in order to unlock them for the account?!

WTF, BLIZZ?!

Are you being sarcastic? How the heck could you think otherwise? What sense would it make for your exalted alliance character to recruit the Nightborne for the horde?

Do the work and to earn your reward, it's an RPG for god's sake.

[Enrif]

Blackfathom Deeps - Name changed from "Blackfathom" to "Blackfathom Deeps". Description: "This ancient night elf temple has now been overrun by naga and satyr. Defeat them before untold evils below are awoken!"

uhm...the current Blackfathom Deeps are not Overrun by Naga or Satyr, they are full of twilight hammer cultists.
So...i guess a revamp and maybe a dungeon for BfA?

We know that from day one. Even without exalted. You'll still need to do the quest to unlock them on horde side... WTF did you expect ?
