Tiny goblin may be back in SL. Disc in SL is making me itch a little.
You go into a horrific vision. The room with wrathion where you normally buff up there are 5 statue/obelisk structures circled around the room. Those things have masks hanging on them. Just click on one, you get a dialog box to put on mask of the ____. It will put a debuff on you. Mouseover the debuff to see the effect.
Only if I play MooDruid SpacePaladin.
Masks basically make the vision a mage tower challenge from Legion. Every mask puts debuffs on you and adds mechanics to the bosses. A 5 mask pretty much feels like a mage tower challenge, theyâre honestly pretty fun.
Seeing the expansion end is near, thereâs not much point doing them unless you want the mounts & cosmetics. I only just got back to the game myself and started doing them just for those.
As for the prepatch, itâs supposed to be scourge like because thereâs no lich king anymore to control the dead so itâs going to be heavily centered in northrend so thatâs gonna be HYPE.
Did something happen to my boy Bolvar?
shadowlands cinematic should show you what happened to the boi
Well damn, I didnât know you could get mounts from them there things. I just got my legendary cloak like last week. Really really struggling to do anything though honestly.
I saidâŚ
Stop trying to solve it!
He may or may not be getting a visit from Sylvanas soonâ˘.
Hot take: a lot of hate on that cinematic but I loved it.
I really enjoyed it and it definitely got me hyped for SL.
I think youâre in the majority tbh ahaha. Cinematic was awesome.
The content in Shadowlands is proving to be good, much better than islands and warfronts. Plus a nice PVP system, old honor back too apparently.
The only worry is the cov switching, other than that looking hype.
Thatâs thought provoking.
Blizzard can make a hell of a cinematic
When it first dropped there was a bit of fuss on how blizz made LK so weak and her so strong.
Yea and playing multiple specs on the same class like paladin. One cov is better than the other. Then your soulbinds are going to be messed up as well unless they make them spec specific unlike azerite traits. Instead of having 3 ret soulbinds for m+, pvp, and raids, I will have one ret, one holy, and one prot. They could easily make them spec specific and in one of those interviews last week they touched on it but wasnât very clear.
Also alting but bfa has seasoned me to only ever play 2 mains max so Iâm not as concerned about it now.
(Sits here in his two toons at max level only one of which got played with any regularity)
I said a while ago if they released a Wrath server youâd never see me in retail ever again so Iâm cautiously optimistic about shadowlands being fun
Really itâs 1 main and 1 alt. The alt was the main but I somewhat got him completed with all bis stats and 475 item level so I donât do the chores on him. Now itâs catching the new main up with the alt.
The mega 8.3 grind loop is just not fun. Itâs not that you can complete it rather quickly. Itâs just not fun anymore.
Yeah a lot of dumb hate on sylv⌠I didnât love it but it was definitely decent. I liked some more of the other ones more.
Also something about conduits being consumed? So we will have to regrind them? Not a fan of that⌠Might be when we want to spec swap only but still not cool.
Theyâve got a few months to listen to the feedback and make that change. Theyâve listened to all other feedback, so I donât get why they wouldnât do it for this one, pretty much the only thing that people are complaining about.
As for alts, theyâve already got catch up mechanics in place at launch, so itâs going to be alt friendly with the new mechanics theyâre adding.
Legacy servers are a real joke in the end tbh, everyone said the same thing about Classic but Classic died within a couple of months, and now everyoneâs turning eyes to Shadowlands. Whilst WOTLK was great and all, itâs just not going to evolve and the challenge isnât there. Beating a childrenâs game isnât fun when itâs so easy, and thatâs what legacy servers turn into after a while ie naked onyxia runs lol.
At the very least Shadowlands is starting with very well received base content, and decent systems minus a certain part of covs, outside that covs are pretty cool especially how covs all get a few of their own cool things.
On a general note for everyone, if you play retail for purely PVP then youâll probably find less enjoyment than everyone who plays for PVE & PVP.
Though right now PVP looks like itâs just gonna be a wod system rehash but instead of one conquest capped gear, youâll be able to upgrade 4 times throughout the season to keep it in line with PVE gear rises.
But itâs the flippinâ Lich King. Sylvanas took him down like he was a toddler!
And Iâm one of them - really tired of the invincible Sylvanas. Get rid of that banshee already and I hope Greymane is the one to do it or if they really want to humiliate her, let Anduin do it. 
It would make sense for them to but people stressed this for bfa and look what they decided⌠ramping gold cost to change.
Yea them announcing the catchup gave me hope. Itâs not really the catching up that concerns me though as much as the weekly maintenance. Itâs hard to gauge it because the maintenance right now is just not fun and not engaging. Maybe the maw and torghast will be. Time will tell.
This 100000%
I hate to say it but the days of just logging in to do bgs and 2s for cap and logging out are basically over with. The quicker I moved into m+ the quicker my enjoyment levels came back to the game and my sub lasted longer that a month or two at a time. Itâs just a different game now.
Anduinâs too busy crying in the corner.
Maybe Iâll actually get into PvE again. Itâs been a while.
