    I don't think they would change the name due to a show with the same title.
    You mean Necromancy. Decay is elemental magic.

    And for the shoulders yeah, strange ... Maybe it'll be surprisingly added next week
    I wish…
    Though chances are the shoulders were cut for… reasons.

    I was hoping that they were going to be something like a heritage set at least but it isn’t looking like it

    Over the shoulder cloaks never existed in WoW outside specific NPCs and concept art.
    Someone made a mockup of an over the shoulder cloak before BfA released, but it was never official.

    Heritage set seems more likely to come in 10.1 or whenever we inevitably go back to the Dracthyr Starting area.

    Nor can they, due to the way the system works. It works on the NPCs because the cloak is part of their model.

    I dunno, it probably could work. But you wouldnt get a lot of intricate cloaks, that's for sure. The stretched textures would make anything but monochromatic colors look awful.
    I imagine the reason we don't have ones though is more to do with the idea working better if the shoulder mog and cloak mog is one and the same, not just two pieces cheated to look like they fit together.

    Coats or longer pieces of gear wrapping around the upper legs seemed impossible until BfA after all. And now we see them everywhere.

    Modern gear supports physics so it could be possible to make an over the shoulder cloak.

    How murderous would that be to FPS when 20 MFs in the raid run around with one would be an another story.

    Although maybe? I mean, I'm pessimistic as fuck and feel a bit jaded from this insane PR spectacle. But, I feel like there has to be something positive in the intro section? IDK, probably just cope.

    The Marketing Team is doing their job flawlessly and the execution is incredible so far.

    I no longer reply to quotations beyond if you're asking a genuine question or have a non-confrontational stance.

    u arnt wrong but blizzard has been notorious for trying to make sure people dont get confused of the dumbest little things. Its just weird timing that they decide all of a sudden to change the name from arcane to order magic

    So, in case anyone didn't know this, you can make evokers on PTR now. Dunno if a bug and I know its only a couple more days, but in case you wanna check it out a couple days early, it's there.

    So.. why is the arcane spec still called arcane then? Why is arcane blast still called arcane blast etc?

    There goes the logic

    It's also possible that order magic is simply "ordered arcane", which would actually make sense as it would re-retcon arcane which was originally chaotic and volatile in origin, hence Netherstorm in TBC.

    It's funny that people complain about the new writers "not respecting their origins" although we may have now 2 cases (the other being the Nathrezim) where they basically changed a retcon to be more in line with the original vision of it haha.

    Tbh, the whole "omg Blizzard renamed it because LoL owns the word Arcane and totally invented it lololol" level of logic is simply amusing. People have no idea about language and then proclaim their game 100% invented the term.

    People who tested event, do we know more or less how many invasion you must complete to obtain whole transmog set on single character?

    No, but they made everything account wide so you can easily start on your main/alt of choice and send stuff over once you got enough drops etc.

    I wonder as well whether it will be similar to previous invasion events where they start maybe once or twice a day, and then by the end are effectively constantly active.

    If it's indeed account wide, I guess I just use power of alt army and get it all over first weekend.

    So this is random gear drops + currency that is account wide like sandworn relics, right?

    Yep. And also each of the bosses dropes a core item that is also account wide that can be combined into a new heirloom trinket.

    Sure, i could absolutely just farm it will all my alts, but that's not really all that fun when you are constantly stressing about whether you have enough time.
    If i know it will be faster as time goes on then i can just do it at my own pace, and know that if I am behind then it's easier to grind it out closer to the 28th.
