First off, I wanted to state that I just completed the entirety of the Balance of Power questline on all 12 classes within the past couple weeks and months. I understand completely how painful the questline is. There is no reason to not make this more alt-friendly.
Let’s first review the requirements for Balance of Power, that have to be completed on EVERY class.
- Unlock all Legion artifact weapons
- Complete the Tear of Elune questline in Val’Sharah and return it to Dalaran
- Complete the Light’s Heart intro questline (including the Exodar scenario)
- Complete the entire Order Hall Class Campaign
- Complete the Azurewing storyline in Azsuna
- Complete the Suramar storyline up to the unlock of Withered Training
- Complete the Suramar Moon Guard Side Quest
- Honored with the Court of Farondis
- Revered with The Nightfallen
- Revered with the Valajar
- 30 Bloods of Sargeras
- 2-3 runs of Emerald Nightmare
- 2-3 runs of Nighthold
- 8 Legion dungeons
- Farming 100+ Legion demons
Once you finally complete all of these requirements on an alt, you can unlock the legion artifact balance of power appearances for that class. This questline will take you 2-3 weeks, at a minimum, not even considering the time it will take to complete the initial requirements.
Consider the recent 9.1.5 change to legion class mounts
Players now only need to complete the achievement Breaching the Tomb on one character per account to begin the Legion class mount quests on the Broken Shore. Each character must still complete their class hall campaign, complete quests, and recruit their final order hall champion.
I see no reason that the Balance of Power questline can receive similar treatment.
Players now only need to complete the achievement Balance of Power on one character per account to unlock the Balance of Power appearances for all classes.
