There’s this other post that covers alternate ways of handling the covenants and switching:
The biggest thing that bugs me is that Blizzard is the one that reaps the benefits of what the “cost” of switching covenants is.
They get either gold (like switching azerite traits) or time.
But the players that stay “loyal” don’t actually get anything, especially in terms of gameplay.
I’d rather forego benefits that players loyal to their covenants would receive - than to pay Blizzard something that only objectively benefits them.
But you know - they were happy to pull $500k from the Blizzcon esports prize pool on the basis of vague wording, so I’m not surprised.
I’m just surprised that so many people defend the system that still only benefits the company - rather than the player.
