The new content in the game at this point is tuned for you to have your cloak; it's the best back in the game.

It's upgradable.

It has some nice abilities.

The cloak is required for the Carapace of N'Zoth fight in the raid, Ny'alotha, the Waking City, in fact you even can't queue for LFR without it.

The cloak allows you to take advantage of Corrupted Gear - more on that in a minute.

Upgrading the Legendary Cloak...

Accept a quest from Wrathion's to look for items in a Horrific Vision.

Purchase a Ricettacolo delle Visioni Orripilanti from Wrathion for or from MOTHER for . You may also receive a Ricettacolo delle Visioni Orripilanti as a quest reward from a Visions of N'Zoth Assault.

Use the Ricettacolo delle Visioni Orripilanti to enter and complete a Horrific Vision.

Turn in your quest to Wrathion. He will reward you with an item that will upgrade your cloak. Depending on how many times you have done this, it will be a Nucleo Corrompente, a Nucleo Orripilante, or a Nucleo Nato dal Vuoto.

Right-click the item in your bag and apply it to the cloak.

Access the Titanic Research Archive and spend Ricordi Corrotti to gain more abilities to make your next Horrific Vision easier.

Rinse. Repeat.

Each Horrific Vision has five areas each with an end boss.

The Horrific Vision is complete when you kill the end boss in the first section - yes, it ends when you kill the first boss last. And you thought insanity was just for your character.

When you are in a Horrific Vision, you will need to manage your sanity - it will be represented by a bar on your UI.

If you die (or if all party members die if you are in a group), the Horrific Vision ends.

If you run out of sanity (again, or all party members), the Horrific Vision ends.

Getting Your Gear Dirty: The Corruption System

Each piece of gear that drops in patch 8.3 content has a chance to be Corrupted.

Each piece of Corrupted gear has a number indicating the amount of corruption that you will incur should you equip this item.

Each piece of Corrupted gear has a positive ability that you will gain should you equip it.

The more powerful the positive ability, the more corruption it will cost.

You will incur negative effects based on your level of corruption.

Your Legendary Cloak and some Essences give you Corruption Resistance.

The Real Cost of Corruption

Once you have Corrupted gear equipped, you will see this creepy N'Zoth eye on your Gear Panel. Hover over it to see your Corruption details.
Equipped Corrupted gear glows purple when the information panel is open.
This is a summary of your equipped Corruption.
Base Corruption: This is the total Corruption of the gear that you have equipped.
Corruption Resistance: This is the Corruption Resistance provided by your cloak and/or Essences.
Total Corruption: This is your total effective Corruption, ie. Base Corruption minus Corruption Resistance.
Corruption Effects: These are the negative effects that you can incur from Corruption along with the amount of Corruption needed to activate them. Those that are not active are greyed out. These penalties are activated based on your Total Corruption.

Commento di Broadcast3rGreat stuff for returning players, thumbs up!Commento di Schnieder6So if we're behind on rank 15 and not earning Malefic Cores for the +3 resistance every week, we'll just be behind? No catch up there?Commento di CambrianLegionSo if we're behind on rank 15 and not earning Malefic Cores for the +3 resistance every week, we'll just be behind?

No catch up there?Commento di MonkofEdenI have found that at around rank 8-10 of the cloak (where you need to get 4 separate things in the quest) it actually takes multiple runs to do one quest. Wasn’t the stated intention that it only should take one? Technically it is possible, but it is nigh impossible at the corruption resistance the cape has to do all 4 zones. Do you think they will nerf these middle quests?Commento di SarthoriusCores do raise the item level I believe.Commento di jenraiI have found that at around rank 8-10 of the cloak (where you need to get 4 separate things in the quest) it actually takes multiple runs to do one quest.

I think its really dependant on things like utilizing the potions to your advantage, as well as K'bab usage while doing them on cloth classes with a low cape level. I've managed full clears on my Disc priest since rank 7, but my warlock friend had much more trouble doing the same runs as I was.Commento di Rhapthornyou simply cant catch up if you dont play the game everyday or from the start of each season at least.

the game model now that even PVE has seasons like it is esports, forces you to play everyday to be competitive for even the basic high-end activities.

You simply need to have no life to enjoy the game now, cause to do the things you enjoy, for examble m+, you must first do all the daily stuffs that takes much time sometimes.

Also if you have alts you want to play, good luck with thatCommento di KoboldiusThats exactly why i'm not playing at the moment. I stopped playing in january and just recently skyped with my friends regarding mythic+, because that is the main reason I play WoW. They are currently doing +20 / +21 mythic+ and asked me If I wanted to tank again for them. Currently a friend that always healed for us is tanking and often they have to rely on one random player. So I asked them what I had to do to quickly help them and after talking about the legendary cloak, the catch up systems and this guide on wowhead I just said to myself: no thanks, not worth the hassle.

Dont get me wrong. I dont want to get a free legendary cloak or other free stuff. I want to earn my gear, azerite traits and essences by doing mythic+ but having to have the ability that the cloak provides in the first place to push higher keys is just terrible design. I could understand it for the last boss in a raid to avoid a specific boss mechanic (like Nefarian and the Onyxia cloak in early days) but for mythic+? Just let me log in start with +10s and let me push further and further to get to +20 and even higher.

Instead I will wait until Shadowlands. The only thing I will do before ist buying the AH-Mount for 5 million gold because thats what I forgot before my subscription ended. More time for other hobbies. But on the other hand very sad because I just want to have fun with my friends and help them in mythic+.
