On top of that, we've also enabled the 3rd Covenant campaign chapter on all 4 covenants ! This one is pretty important as completing it will allow you to bind your soul to another NPC, granting you another soulbind tree with new perks ! On top of that each Covenant will have its load of additional rewards, which you can read about here: here (you can then read about each covenant specifically to see all chapter-related rewards) Though thanks to the Renown catchup mechanic we implemented recently you shouldn't find it tedious to get back on track. We're still in 9.0 behavior though, meaning progress isn't shared among covenants: if you join a new one, you will have to start as if it were your first covenant on this character. All of the progress you've made on past covenants will be kept, meaning that if you ever feel like rejoigning a past one, you will be able to resume where you left of (that includes Renown, Anima, Campaign chapters and followers). Simply head to the covenant's representative on Oribos and talk to him to instantly enter this new family. Of course, this isn't supposed to be the case and you can now freely change your mind without even needing to wait, as we removed the 1 week sentence that was here on retail. Let's start by the later: as you now know, chosing your covenant is a pretty important decision in Shadowlands considering everything that it implies, and up until today this choice was set in stone. Two things most of you have been requesting have just been enabled on Oribos today Thursday January 27th: Threads of Fate & Covenant Swap ! We hope that this new addition will have the positive impact we want, and we'll keep an eye out to see if everything goes according to plan ! We'd understand if some of you felt like this isn't something needed, but try to see it that way: this doesn't revoke any rights (if you want to keep your guild all-horde you can), it only adds new opportunities ! A new player asking questions in world chat will have more people available to help him, and you will find groups faster for any non-PvP activity. Since they will be able to join hands in several activities now, it didn't make much sense to keep them separated.
World Channels will be fused so Horde and Alliance players can now talk together. You can still obviously chose to enter mercenary mode if needed ! PvP still remains Horde vs Alliance as the system doesn't easily allow for a change. You can now group in raids and dungeons with people from both factions, meaning it will be easier and faster to gather the needed amount of characters ! This also applies to LFG filtering. That doesn't mean you have to invite everyone, but at least now you can ! Guilds can now contain players from both factions.
That way we get the best of 2 worlds: reducing the faction balancing problems and staying blizzlike ! Ever since Battle for Azeroth some of you have been voicing their concern about faction balancing, and the fact that as an Alliance player it was quite difficult to find progress guilds or people to group with.įor 9.2.5 Blizzard announced that they would finally enable cross-faction despite the war between Horde and Alliance being a central element in WoW's lore: this is something we've done on all of our older expansions here at Firestorm for quite a while, and we thus figured we could anticipate a bit and enable it on Oribos on Monday February 21st.
