There is literally 0 chance of Season 4 extending beyond the 23rd. Too much changes including class design. And I don’t think they’ve ended a season on a random day such as a Friday.
Also SL → DF Pre Patch was the same, season ended on pre-patch day.
But yeah, it is weird that they posted a “season end date soon”, 2 days later posted the confirmed pre-patch date, and still haven’t officially dated the end of season.
Just going to link my post with my thoughts on what they means about Season 4 ending.
But essentially, when the season “ends” the only thing likely going away are the competitive rewards such as the 0.1% M+ Title, AoTC and Cutting Edge. KSM and the portals, as well as the Awakened Hero title, and Wilderling Mount will likely still be obtainable until August 20th, the week TWW goes live.
They’d be fools to completely end the season and deactivate awakened a month before the expansion launch.
thank you for the reply but i don’t want a guess, i wanted an exact confirmation. (the same type of confirmation that we have always gotten weeks in advance of the season’s closing date)
I know the usual seasons do, because there’s another season they have starting.
That’s why I asked specifically about the end of Shadowlands Season 4, which is the only previous time we’ve had a season where a new raid is not added.
Which SL S4 ending was 1 month before DF launched and the only stuff that went away was the competitive rewards. All other rewards (Mount from Normal Fated Raids, Title from Heroic Fated Raids, Portals from Mythic Fated Raids, KSM, KSH and Dungeon Teleports didn’t stop until the week DF launched.
If you’re not going for the 0.1% title or pvp rewards, then you still have plenty of time, and more opportunities for the raids as they will all be awakened with PrePatch.
No, we also lose the ability to do the original versions of the bosses, which makes getting everyone their Fyrrak mounts (which CE guilds from season 3 are STILL working on) much more of a hassle.
It’s annoying to have gotten Cutting Edge in season 3, but because the seasons are so short, and you only get 2 mounts per week, to still not have the mount.
I just got mine last week, but we still have more people left to go.
They really need to tie the mount to the Cutting Edge achievement, like they do for M+ and AOTC and PvP rewards. CE raiding is the only part of the game that’s still “you did the content! - now farm up the reward for months”.
