Umm.. why?
Well that's extremely stupid. I was planning on going Night Fae for the speed boost in clearing old content.
Honestly, would you rather they do this now or at the end of the expansion in patch 9.3?
What if I skipped BFA stuff including the Heart of Azeroth and wont be able to use any 'Powerful thing' to do old content? seems unfair to force me to do the BFA content to unlock essences as the HoA is almost useless without essences, especially if ur not decked up in azerite armor to make use of lvling the HoA since most old content runners will be sporting the gear they get from SL content.
So let me get this right. Blizzard knows everyone hates zone specific toys, so listening to feedback, they came to conclusion people would enjoy expansion zone specific core abilities lol. *golfclap*
Makes sense. Removed
Could you imagine if Blizzard said "you can't use essences in raids prior to 8.2" (BoD, Uldir, legacy raids)? That'd be dumb, right?
What Blizzard usually doing is beyond me. This expansion will be worse than bfa.
This is a very questionable change. Why? Just why?I don't do it, but the 15 year tradition of dueling in front of Orgrimar & Stormwind is dead now I guess.
I mean, we can't even /duel with the latest, or to say whole, character ability in Orgrimmar/Stormwind in this way. That's really insane.
please no
Sigh. It's like Blizzard have forgotten the fun aspect of gaming and just focus on the rules.
I thought the Delay was to FIX stuff, not ruin it more?Because this is a Extreme Nerf to transmog farmers.I can give you an example why, and why it's still needed.-----------------------I can solo Mythic NH up to Elisande on Retail.I tried to solo Mythic NH on a lvl 60 Hunter with ilvl 198 and couldn't get past Skorpyron.I couldn't get past Skorpyron because he's most likely overtuned.BUT...The Covenant Ability atleast helped me push some Damage.-----------------------And for you who says that it does " MAKE SENSE " Sorry to break it to you, but no it makes no sense whatsoever!.Sylvanas used her Maw-Covenant Ability against Varok Saurfang in the Mak'gora.Sylvanas beated Bolvar with the Covenant Ability which comes from the Maw.She had to use the Covenant Ability to break the Helmet, Giving us the Shadowlands Expansion.-----------------------" It would seem likely the intent is to simply split up power, as the Heart of Azeroth and its bonuses (Azerite, Essences) are useable in other content "If this is Blizzard's mindset, than they are just Stupid, because why would it matter if we could use the Heart of Azeroth + Covenant Abilities to farm Transmogs & Mounts?.By farming Transmog & Mounts wouldn't make your character stronger in Shadowlands.Let the player use both in OLDER CONTINENT as it does NOT DAMAGE SHADOWLANDS PROGRESSIONEither way, let's wrap it up!.This Change is completely Stupid and makes no sense, this is not a Fix.. it's a nerf
This should be something blizzard implements AFTER Shadowlands not now. Just like how artifacts or essences got disabled after their expansions
This is really really dumb. Makes absolutely no sense.
