SHADOWLANDS HYPE!

Sylvanas fans vindicated once again

Best expansion ever

Vindicated by having her be the main villain?

[Oisin]

Maybe that was just the 8.4 trailer

[Malorne the White Stag]

Ow 2 incoming!

[jdbond]

Look at the pre order. Shadowlands has ZERO features. ZERO!

Sigh...you people...Sigh

[gcsmith]

seriously, looks like 20 minutes over time. I expect they saved a lot of things for the "what next panel"

[NotTrihard]

maybe level wasn't in trailer not to confuse people with squish? Guess we'll find out at 2:30

There's a 120 boost on the website

[Feali]

Boost to 120 is really weird though. Unless it's a red herring

[Hugnomo]

Guys I have a question. Is the wow panel free or VT only?

[Adoxe]

They didn't mention quite a few things in the trailer, I expect it all to be in the following panels (Wowhead confirmed level squish already). Didn't expect a Class so I'm not disappointed about it. Really happy that the leaks were real, not happy that Sylvanas won the fight. But oh well, looking forward it it nonetheless.

[Sharby]

The only thing similar is the helm get a grip lol

Idc about the comparison I'm talking about how yet again the armor sets are going to be terrible.


Tier sets died for this garbage its so embarrassing.

[Chickat]

Maybe they will announce a world revamp too in the whats next panel and thats why theres only 3 zones? Maybe this expansion is coming out in Spring, and is only going to last 18 months instead with 2 tiers. We shall see. Need more info.

[Augusta138]

So this merchandise poster?

Now i see why there are only 300 available, because they expect they wont sell.
60 dollars for a picture that reminds you of Bolvar / The Lich King being defeated so easily....

overall, kudos to all people thinking it was going to be Shadowlands, am i hyped? no not at all.
Will i be after the panel? time will tell coz i will for sure watch it.

Although overall it is a disappointment tho.

Diablo 4 looks great tho.

From the webpage:

BRAVE THE BEYOND
The veil between life and death is no more.
With a single act of destruction, Sylvanas Windrunner has ripped open the way to the afterlife. Azeroth’s staunchest defenders have been dragged into all-consuming darkness. An ancient force of death threatens to break its bonds and unravel reality.

Hidden realms of wonder and horror await any who would pass to the other side. The Shadowlands is home to an entire realm of the departed; it is a world between worlds whose delicate balance preserves life and death itself.

As one of Azeroth’s greatest champions, you have been granted the power to cross over in body and soul. Now you must investigate a conspiracy to unmake the cosmos, and help Warcraft legends journey back... or fulfill their ultimate destiny.

[Oswen]

Eh no new races or classes, just leveling and a new take on reputations.
Gives me flashbacks of WoD, not feeling optimist about this.

Bolvar turned out to be a useless character and Sylvanas has now attained Ultra Instict and soloed the entire Icecrown.
Not a good take on the characters in my opinion.

Blizzard seems really keen to leave the MMO crown to FFXIV, ESO or whatever, it feels like they aren't even trying.

[Aseph]

Choose Your Covenant:Align yourself with one of the Shadowlands’ four Covenants—otherworldly shepherds of the dead, each with their own ambitions, motives, and incredible powers to claim as your own.

Storm the Eternal Prison:Test your limits as you ascend Torghast, Tower of the Damned, a highly replayable ever-changing dungeon in the dark heart of the Maw, where the vilest souls are locked away forever.

Both of these sound like cool ideas but without any other info, I am underwhelmed as far as xpac announcements go

[Yarathir]

Three editions lmao.

I'm digging that mount and the whole look.

Also "new feature: Covenant Soulbinds"? Curious.

[Destinas]

No level squish, or it wouldn't be a 120 boost with extra editions?

There is a level squish.

https://www.wowhead.com/news=295961/...ed-shadowlands

Every Level Is Meaningful: Shadowlands will introduce a new leveling system, meant to provide a meaningful sense of advancement with every level achieved. Current max-level characters will begin Shadowlands at level 50 and work toward the new level cap of 60.

[Makorus]

Well, technically it would be called a 120 Boost, because you get the Boost when you preorder, and the Level Squish wont happen until Prepatch, so its confusing to call it a 60 Boost or whatever.
