The Problem:
I’m writing to express my frustration with the current state of the Timeless Isles. Specifically, the requirement to possess a Timeless Cloak to enter Ordon Sanctuary is a significant barrier for many players, hindering their ability to complete achievements, defeat world bosses, and fully experience this unique zone.
The Impact:
Achievement Inaccessibility: Many achievements within the Timeless Isles are tied to Ordon Sanctuary. These achievements are now permanently locked out for players who never obtained a Timeless Cloak, creating a frustrating sense of incompleteness.
World Boss Difficulty: The Sha of Anger, a challenging and rewarding world boss, is inaccessible to players without a Timeless Cloak. This limits player engagement and prevents them from experiencing a core aspect of the Timeless Isles.
Legacy Content Frustration: While the Timeless Isles are considered “legacy content,” the Cloak requirement feels arbitrary and outdated. It creates an unnecessary obstacle for players who are simply trying to explore and experience older content.
Proposed Solutions:
Achievement Legacy: Move all achievements tied to Ordon Sanctuary to the “Legacy” category, allowing players to earn them regardless of their Timeless Cloak status.
Remove Cloak Requirement: Simply remove the Timeless Cloak requirement for entry to Ordon Sanctuary. This would open up the zone to all players and allow them to enjoy its content.
Reintroduce Cloak Acquisition: If removing the requirement is not feasible, consider reintroducing a limited-time method for obtaining the Timeless Cloak. This could be a special event or a vendor that sells the Cloak for a significant amount of gold or other in-game currency.
Conclusion:
The Timeless Cloak requirement for Ordon Sanctuary is an outdated and unnecessary restriction that hinders player enjoyment and creates an artificial barrier to a significant portion of the Timeless Isles. I urge Blizzard to consider these proposed solutions to make this unique zone more accessible and enjoyable for all players.
