For aesthetic/playstyle purposes, which of the four is your favorite (numbers aside despite what replies this will likely get :stuck_out_tongue: )

Aesthetic: Kyrian

Gameplay: Venthyr

2

Night Fae because principle.

Kyrian. My other options are edgy teens and a bunch of smelly hippies.

My plan is to use Venthyr for the [Door of Shadows] to get in funky places until flying then switch to a more AOE based one once we start pushing higher keys later in the xpack, whichever build people think is best by that time

I’m excited to see vampires teleporting around everywhere.

It seems like Door of Shadows works like a warrior’s Heroic Leap. If so, I am definitely putting a character or two in the Venthyr Covenant. I love Heroic Leap.

I think Wild Spirits and Stampede both being on a 2 min CD will make for some crazy high AoE damage. Might be fun in M+.

Still undecided. Too many decisions to make :worried:

Kyrian xmog looks 11/10 though, amazing.

I’m praying and hoping Maldraxxus stays as a viable option and does not get nerfed.

Right now our necrolord ability is in a good spot but I do not know how good everything else is in the package…

I really hope is viable 'cuz I want to go there… if not then I will just pick whatever sims better and cry about it in my bed at night…

I still wish Covenants were only Aesthetics with no gameplay attached Q_Q

For aesthetics, I like Bastion better as a zone, but I don’t particularly like any of the transmogs, so I’ll probably keep using the same one I already have.

Playstyle there isn’t really much. Venthyr has the best and worst at the same time, since the teleport is cool but the RNG of Flayed Shot is annoying. The rest are all pretty meh.

I haven’t tested the covenant weekly events, but Necrolord seems like the most interesting to me. The Night Fae looks so-so. Kyrian and Venthyr look boring.

Night fae all the way.
Because of looks and the video resonated the most with me. The covenant ability looks fun and is cool.

I’m sure Maldraxxus will still be viable. Even with a slight nerf to bring it’s damage down it will still perform nicely, and the bonus focus is always welcomed.

I was more hoping they’d buff the others to match Maldraxxus lol, but I don’t think that’ll happen.

I want to pick Venthyr because that mail transmog is the best I’ve ever seen in this game!

However, I strongly prefer Death Chakram over Flayed Shot.
Further, as the most mobile class BM hunters probably benefit from Door of Shadows less than anybody else when considering it’s mobility, and when considering skips I have Shadowmeld, camouflage and feign death so I’m already good there.
while Fleshcraft is always useful.

I’m considering going Necrolord for the expansion, and switching to Venthyr at the end of the expansion for the transmog. But, covenants keep getting revised so we shall see.

Honestly won’t really know until I play/test them but right now I am leaning toward Venthyr or Maldraxxus, perhaps a bit more on the Maldraxxus side though free Kill shots do sound nice.

14

I have enough number of high-leveled alts that I’ll be able to get the 4 armor type mogs from all 4 covenants.

That being said, I’m taking Kyrian on Watermist. It just… fit Watermist (at least, how I’ve imagined her character since Vanilla. I don’t roleplay, but I’ve always had a hazy idea of the backgrounds and characteristics of my toons).

I’m leaning towards Venthyr on my Alliance Hunter, but I’m not 100% decided there yet.

15

I’m either between Venthir or Necro Lords.

They both sound nice on paper, the extra focus from Necro sounds like it will be the go too for me but dat free kill shot from flayed shot sounds extra zesty so I’ma have to play around and see.

16

I have such a good Ardenweald transmog, but Kyrian res arrow is too good for PvP. /wrists I wish the cosmetics were separate from the covenant abilities.

17

Kyrian hands down, not only do I think their transmog is nice, but both resonating arrow and the steward enhance my pvp gameplay.

18

Vamps and Zombies.

19

I am not sure between Necro and Night fae.

I want a covenant that could be good all around …I won’t raid (I only will do looking for raid) I will do pug M+, I will solo questing, Wpvp (I run WM on) and will do random BGs.

Any suggestions

This. I was a Nelf. Before any data I was going Fae. As a Tauran with data. I’m still going Fae.
