This covenant is pure hype. Our boy Kel’thuzad is hanging out here as well… really hope we don’t kill him and we just help him find his cats lost throughout the realm or something.
Can still keep the uniqueness of being part of the Covenant if you make the abom a regular mount, just have it be a Covenant specific mount - only usable while you’re part of the Covenant and greys out if you’re not.
So just to be clear: how will Bliz keep the Necrolord Covenant from crashing, when all the cool kids will want to be Necrolords?
And what kind of self-respecting Forsaken wants to play as a nephalim?
Aren’t the Necrolords the only Covenant with a new “profession,” of corpse-manufacturing?
In all seriousness, won’t it be fairly obvious that there will be class and race-specific preference for each Covenant? I don’t see a ton of undead running to the Kyrian, or non-elven, non-druid Night Fae…but I could be wrong.
Also, can the back piece please be fixed? It’s really awkward looking…a giant piece of metal just floating on our back? Just make the back piece so it comes out of the shoulder blades of the wearer.
Nathanos: So… it was an Abomination…? Sylvanas: IN A HAT!!
Well that settles it. -sends Lacryma off to Mal’draxxus-
My only other question is this. Which of the Covenants will deal with the Loa / Bwonsamdi the most? Ardenweald I assume? I’m rather curious as I would love to put one of my Trolls there if I can.
I would like to be. However, this current, terrible, implementation of covenants means I am forced to choose between fun gameplay or fun aesthetic/lore. Covenants shouldn’t affect gameplay in any way.
100% unforced error. Shadowlands has a lot of really cool stuff that looks like it’s going to be ruined by association with horrible systems at launch. Unless something changes, people are better off waiting until 9.2 when they slap on whatever last minute fix they had to come up with in order to preserve developer egos.
