TBD.

Tuning is nowhere near done, and there’s nothing really stopping Blizzard from buffing Soul Rot by like a bajillion % and making it the best next beta update.

If I understand the gameplay in Shadowlands, what happens is that we level up through all the zones and you get to try out the different Covenants and then when you find the one that works best for your character and spec, you pick that when you reach 60.

I think I have that right. So by the time you get to 60 (and you have to do each Covenant zone, you cant skip any your first run through) you should have a pretty good idea of which one works best for you.

The best currently, though subject to change, is Kyrian.

The Necrolords covenant was the best, because of Drain Soul spam, which is no longer a thing.
