Zaralek Caverns Completely Abandoned

I hope the dreamsurges are extended to forbidden reach and zaralek. Get people a reason to go there even in 10.1.7 and throughout the rest of the expansion.

Also blizz needs to be more stringent on creating way way fewer shards in these zones to increase social critical mass.

Oceanic is what keeps ally stuff alive at night for NA.

I still don’t get what I’m supposed to be doing in Zarelek. Do they really want us to just wander around looking for rares, and do sidequests for these obnoxious mole people they just made up? Whats the main questline down therre?

My only question is why are there so many damn different shards for a zone that has like less than 5 people in it at any given time.

this zone does not need such heavy handed phasing, it just makes it feel even more abandoned.

Also, please up the drop rate on the green BOP Surveyors gear. Trying to farm that gear for Xmog is insanity. I have gotten only one piece from my last 30+ kills.

If you’re struggling to find reasons past renown 20, then yeah that’s warranted. But before then even though the rep has no power gains to the degree we’ve been acclimated with legion thru SL, like why not do it. I’ve been late to the patch and am sitting at 17 renown for effort that has been like a fifth or less effort of what I have done in any rep, years prior.

Not sure how this addresses my question. I left WoW in late legion and came back for DF. I don’t get where the fun comes in from Zaralek, or what the main goal is, but I’m sure I’m just missing something.

If it’s not fun don’t do it. That’s pretty much the focus of anything. It’s just with zaralek once they changed rares they really ruined any incentive to do content in the zone besides the weekly stuff.

But as for why people would find it fun, it would primarily be for competionism reasons or hunt mog/mounts.

So, it’s a zone for hunting down rares?

It was until blizz changed the focus. Then it became a do “zaqali world boss/hope group does max researchers under fire for best bag once a week on probably main only” zone.

According to Blizz, no this was not the primary function of the zone. But they failed to tell us what is and left us hanging.

Ok, so can someone tell me what the intent of this zone is , then??? XD

Nope because not even blizz told us when they said “Oh we’re changing it because we dont want you to do that.” :dracthyr_hehe_animated:

Can I see a link? I believe you, but surely they can’t be that incompetent, right? Like, at some point they must have had a basic description of what Zaralek is and what its gameplay purpose is.

Right?

Someone posted it earlier in the thread let me snag the actual link.

But yeah… not a peep on them about the primary objective of the caverns even after I raised a stink about the fact they did NOT increase the drop rates to compensate for the change. Sure they increased Karokta … but they didn’t change anything else.

Edit: That thread can be found here

Legion had that in an addon. It was great until blizzard intentionally fixed it and broke the addon from autoqueing into groups.

We have dead zones because blizz has ruined stuff like that in the past honestly.

Yea it shows blizzard doesn’t really care about world content honestly.

Sounds nice to me. But it’s weird how largely ignored Zaralek Caverns is. I preferred ZM personally, Pocopoc being able to be powered up to eventually solo rares was pretty good.

So far Shadowlands had better world content then in DF, I also dislike the very strong rares that require groups to complete, no one does those.
