So, i created a new character and get 70, but i cant get to the maw, when i jump the portal i get tp back to oribos, this only happens with this new character, will i have to do all the storyline?, also theres no other quests in oribos, zereth mortis portal doesnt show up too.

The only quests of Shadowlands that i have is bastion storyline.
I cant even click the maw map.

Have you done the campaign on another character in the past? There’s no way to skip it completely, but as long as you have done it once you can skip a lot.

The details depend on some things, but the general progression is:

  • Get to 60
  • Choose Threads of Fate
  • Pick a Covenant
  • Go to your covenant base and do the intro, taking any skips offered, eventually they send you back to Oribos to see Bolvar
  • Bolvar offers the Torghast intro and a skip if you have done it before

yea i did the campaign b4, after i choosed threads of fate, all the quests were gone, i cant even pick a covenant cause the npcs arent in oribos.

4

are you tracking low level quests?

5

Yea, “Insider Trading” its the only quest avaible in oribos.

6

have you been to talk to Fatescribe Roh-Tahl?

don’t look for a quest, just try talking to him

7

I did, nothing happens either xd.

8

did you ever find a resolution to this? i am driving myself mad with the same scenario.

9

I am in the same boat. I dont even need to get into the Maw but because I cant, I HAVE TO lol.

10

did you ever find a fix for this?

11

fix for this you found, had to say like yoda cause forums

I’m sure you’ve found a fix for this by now, but for the sake of others, here is how I fixed this on my Horde character:

  • Make sure you’re tracking low-level quests. This helps, but isn’t necessary.
  • Go to The Valley of Strength in Orgrimmar.
  • Just outside the Warchief’s building you will see Highlord Darion Morgraine
  • He should offer the quest Shadowlands: A Chilling Summons

Once you accept this, you can choose to take a skip to go to Oribos, after which you will get the Thread of Fate quest from Fatescribe Roh-Tahl and will be able to select either skipping the campaign or undertaking those quests.

I would assume there is a similar location to meet the Highlord in Stormwind for Alliance players, but I have not tested this.

Hope this helps the next person.

Hi ~Mackathra

If I don’t have any characters done in the shadowland campaign, can I still skip all story/champaign, and get to “The Maw” ?

As I recall, you get sent to the Maw as part of the first quests after choosing your covenant. There used to be a level requirement, but now that players can level through Shadowlands, I don’t know. But either way, “unlocking” the Maw is part of the covenant campaign and afaik, unavoidable the first time around.
