Winners and losers of covenants

Not gimped gang represent. Still tossing around the idea of rolling WW in the back of my head. But seeing how they’re looking on beta I think it may just have to be an alt.

You haven’t addressed what I actually said once in your posts. You are creating an imaginary scenario in your own head and responding to it.

Also soulbinds and conduits are not revealed to the player within the game at any point before they make their decision but facts aren’t important to you only creating false narratives that make you feel good.

All I was addressing from the start was that you claimed choosing a covenant was random which it’s not.
Nothing else you added was relevent to disproving that point. There is enough information out there to make those decisions.

If you aren’t engaging the game in a manner where you don’t care about gaining that information then realistically you are not engaging in the game in a manner that the differences between covenants matter to any degree.

So again you would go on the information you have, abilities, aesthetics, mounts etc. :man_shrugging:

Can those choices be less or more informed? Yes. Still not random though.

Maldraxxis is the loser as far as DK goes. If I ever went to that covenant as a DK I would NEVER use it’s ability. Tentacle bone arm is a major nope for me.

Everyone are winners and losers
Every Covenant choice you gain some and lose some .

What matters personally is the gain worth the loss? if no then you should not be playing or picked the wrong covenant.

To be fair it looks giga fun in pvp. Yoink, yoink, yoink.

At least all warrior specs share a bis covenant. Too bad it’s either aredenwaeld or kyrian.

I got enough angelic, do goody, honor above all with the warrior class hall. If I wanted nature theme, I would have been a nelf or a druid.

I think he’s saying that whether a given covenant lines up with either your RP ideas or your gameplay ideas, both, or neither is random. Not that you’re randomly given one.

Fair enough I guess. Although I’d argue it’s more just out of our control as opposed to random.
All the abilities are thematically tied to the covenants at least reasonably, so it’s not like they just tossed a coin and assigned them or anything lol.

But yeah, I get where you are coming from. That’s possibly what they mean.

They’re gonna end up nerfing it I bet. Like 3 grabs max once enough people cry about it.

geesh people its only a game to get away from reality, just have fun that what thsi game is all about… that what im going to do no matter what , my undead destro warlock is going to tear up stuff and my eleshaman draeani will being going on adventrures in sl… this is the bubble gum expansion… this is one for fun… not competitive stuff has been removed… …so … good times ahead

Competitive stuff is fun for people, and they’re not huge fans of it being made much harder to excel at than it’s been for no reason.

im… " forced " to go night fae. its the best preforming ability that lowers my CD.
i will say this, all of them kinda sucks for my priest which is great. opens the choices.
mind games is pretty cool too.

Any suggestion for a mage?

I’m just going the aesthic route this expac tbh. Luckly most of the convs that I wanted are the go to for warlock, druid and rogue.

I’m maining disc, so most of the covenants should work so it comes down to tuning. If I want to go holy, I think its Necro lord or bust for unholy nova. They’re all pretty meh for shadow so I might go Necro because it’s ok for everything.
