I got bored and leveled a Blood Elf hunter over the last couple days.
I’m level 70, and decided to get the “Dark Ranger Attire” which requires “Return to Lorderon” on the character.
So I accessed Shadowlands, skipped the maw, and instead of asking me if I want to do the story or threads, I immediately was pushed into Story line.
How do I access “Thread of Fate” now?
You don’t. They removed it with Dragonflight.
Which is stupid because unless you’re doing Loremaster of Shadowlands, 99.9% of people will never quest in Ardenweald or Revendreth again, because by the time you reach Ardenweald, you level out of Chromie Time.
They need to make it so you can do any of the 4 zones questlines for leveling alts since they removed ToF.
I just want to do the “Return to Lorderon” questline, which means I have to have either been in Threads or do the Story line long enough for Calla to show up in Orbitos.
I’m sorry you have to suffer Shadowlands for that.
IMHO It was the worst XP, beating out BFA, Dreanor and Cata.
I love leveling in Cata. All the zones had great storylines. Some of them were even hilarious.
But I agree leveling in SL, WOD and BfA is the worst.
Cata leveling was fine, but the content was really hit or miss after.
Though, I honestly miss the sleek dungeons of Wrath, BC, and Panda.
I understand the RP and stuff in the new dungeons, but they’re too huge at times and get monotonous when you’re running them on Heroic/Mythic for gear grinds.
Strange - I recently decided to play an Evoker. I wanted to do BGs so I had to unlock Oribos.
I skipped the Maw, and when I zoned into Oribos, I got the threads of Fate prompt. And I chose it.
I didn’t think anything of it until I saw this thread. If it was removed why did I just pick it on my Evoker? Genuinely curious.
I wonder if it was because your Hunter was Max level? My Evoker was like lvl 62. Or did my Evoker just get lucky and get the choice from a bug?
only dracthyr can do threads of fate.
Ah that makes sense then.
Hm, I thought you could still get the skip option as long as the character was already at least level 60 when first going to Oribos.
It’s been awhile since I took a 60 character there, so something might have changed?
It’s been too long, but are you sure you need to do the questline on a hunter or just need a hunter to purchase the set?
You may be able to just run the quest on the toon that you’ve already taken through SL.
I leveled entirely in bastion when I was playing my paladin a few weeks ago. Kinda annoying but you can also level in chromie time to 60 in any expansion
no true i had a few toons that got the promt to skip last month
It’s not supposed to be available but it’s glitchy. Decided to run my warrior through some of the raid there but he’s never played in sl. Went to oribos and threads of fate came up and let me select it. I’ve seen others report the same. But if you didn’t get the option or doesn’t play through it originally you’ll have to do the whole story…
In my experience, you can choose Threads of Fate at level 60 as long as that character didn’t touch Shadowlands at all while leveling (and of course if you’ve unlocked ToF by completing the campaign once).
At 60, you just go to the NPC for the Maw skip and it brings you right to Oribos where you make your choice. Just did this on a level 60 Dark Iron Dwarf Hunter created a few days ago.
That’s not true because I did the maw skip on another hunter last week and it gave me the prompt. I think if you do the maw skip as a lvl 60+ then you can do threads since my characters that didn’t do have the option to do threads of fate.
You wait until lvl 60 and go talk to Darion in Org or Storm.
From there you get sent to Oribos and you can choose Fate as long as you have 1 that ran the campagins way before where Sl was young.
Just landed another alt at 60 yesterday into Threads.
it was removed. don’t even ask why it was removed, the devs don’t even know themselves.
I’m pretty sure it has to be done on a hunter to get the Dark Ranger set.
The upside of that is that the set looks kinda awful anyways. No clue why they decided to make it green instead of, y’know, dark.
