Shadowlands covenant question for alt

[Cannontusk-thrall]

Ok im just lvling through with an alt and its soooo boring i just want to complete it and choose a covenant for the title.

I notice i lvl really fast doing dungeons if i get to lvl 60 can i choose a covenant then? Ive already completed the story mode on another character and have a renown to 80 so this guy im lvling has the instant 60 renown sitting in the bag waiting to use.

Since i already started questing here is that option gone? Or can i just pick up a covenant once i hit 60 no matter how i got there? Everything online is telling me if its a fresh 60 u can just pick threads of fate but this guy already started the campaign.

This is correct. If you’ve already started it, you’re poo out of luck, unfortunately.

Now… a few people have reported being able to pick Threads when they hit 60 even though they had started the campaign, but this doesn’t seem reliable.

Well i guess i have nothing to lose for trying then ill continue dungeons in between quests and rush to 60 to see whatll happen. If it doesnt work ill just wait in remix ending and do it on that mage instead

Edited: Blizzard broke it. Disregard everything I type in this thread.

I remember the NPC telling me I can do Threads of Fate at anytime; just can’t go back once I’ve chosen it. Changed in Dragonflight.

So, now you can let us know how it works out when you traverse this bold new world.

I wonder if you abandon all SL quests prior to 60, if that makes it pop?

Idk. I haven’t touched SL on a fresh toon since… SL

@Seilloah-zuljin

Edit: confirmed- you can do threads of fate anytime after doing the intro to the maw quest chain.

That article is old and things were changed when SL was added to Chromie Time.

[Seilloah-zuljin]

Ah. Unconfirmed then. Reedit to reflect this new information.

Shadowlands broken? …this is my shocked face.

[Sendryn-sentinels]

Many of us here have been testing it since the beginning of DF. Let me see if I can find Kneeshooter’s thread on it.

Edit: here’s Knee’s thread where we were gathering all of the information on how it “works” now after SL being added to Chromie Time.

Shadowlands and Threads of Fate

There is sometimes a bit of confusion about Shadowlands for those wanting to do it for things like mogs, pets, mounts, etc. I’ve tested it out and want to clarify one point. Assuming you have done Shadowlands before, if you create a NEW character and level it to 70 without touching Shadowlands, you can then go speak to Darion Morgraine in your capital city, choose to skip the whole Maw sequence and be taken directly to Oribos. You will then meet the NPC who will offer you the option to do Thr…

Shadowlands broken?

Yes and no?

When the DF prepatch hit, they removed threads of fate after you started the campaign.
Prior, you could at any point go to the npc and activate threads.

After or before u start the campaign for leveling? Cause i know for sure u cant level wirh threads of fate anymore. Just unsure if i can start it once i hit 60 if i already in the campaign.

After. In SL, you could activate threads of fate at anytime.

Yea currently you can’t activate threads of fate if you already started the campaign.

It could potentially pop when you hit 60, but I wouldn’t count on it sadly.

[Seilloah-zuljin]

Lame.

My bad.

I was operating off of outdated information. I know better; shame on me.

[Quivermethis-rexxar]

And don’t let it happen again!

But no really blizz should update their information so it’s not so confusing (or revert the change since it was silly to begin with)
