Arthas will be the hero of the expansion, he’ll finally be redeemed when he goes HAM on the jailers ass, but his experience in the maw has changed xir, and xim shall rise as Arthania the MTF heir to the throne of Lordaron. Donning an Orc Lives Matter shirt shim will set in motion the key to restoring the shadowlands.
The worst part about this is how I can't tell anymore where the sarcasm ends. It very well could all be true.

This is why I like a >20 year old MMO, without updates.

It's just some shit they Xeroxed from other places and made to look good. Bram Stokerville being the most laughably unoriginal thing they've done, but at least it isn't as ridiculous as an enitre expac filled with Pandas and Chinese architecture.
Someone compared this expansion to EQs PoP and that made me realize that I get some serious Mistmoore vibes from the castle parts of Revendreth.

I personally... do not have fun in the Maw. Thankfully that part only lasted a short while and then you're on to Bastion. But in all reality, if you're already bored with playing it....

Found the Maw way more fun with a group. Eye of the Jailer gets crazy, though. Was able to do a round of dailies while finishing up the last storyline Maw quests. Some of the upgrades you can buy from the vendor/rep person in there look pretty crazy. Obviously will take time to get most, but I unlocked the teleporter spots. Curious to see how that makes it go today if I do stuff in there.

The maw would be fine if you could mount. Not sure the reasoning of disabling it . I guess to make it feel more "dangerous".

There are mobs that ride around on mounts that you can kill and activate the mount for yourself or like a minute or so. Does Druid travelform still work in there? Total bullshit if so.

Death Knights should be able to use their Acherus Deathcharger.

I dont know who needs to hear this, but it keeps coming up in chat. "You can use troops multiple times within the same mission."

"Bros.. the maw is SUPER dangerous"
"What makes it so dangerous?"
"You can't mount!"

With the launch of Shadowlands, great numbers of players have left Azeroth for the afterlife, dramatically increasing player populations on every realm. For a small number of realms, demand has been overwhelming, and we’ve been working around the clock to address issues on those realms and make the game available to the maximum number of players.
Today, we’ve enabled the Free Character Transfer service for players who have characters on high population realms that are experiencing consistent, extended queues. If this service is available on your realm, you’ll access it in the Services section of the Shop on your character selection screen for that realm.
Please note:

  • You cannot select a destination realm that also has a high population.
  • Realm to realm character transfers take time to complete, and the duration is higher when more players are using the service.
  • You cannot log in to your character until the migration has completed.
  • You cannot cancel a migration in progress.
  • Blizzard Customer Support cannot cancel a migration or speed up the migration process.
  • Character migrations are irreversible.
  • The free service may be disabled at any time, as necessary.
We strongly suggest that any players planning to use a Free Character Transfer do so as soon as possible.
Thank you very much!


Not sure how the fuck they are having issues with this since servers are meaningless at this point. They might as well just make 1 mega server with how retail works honestly. On the other side they should simply open this up to all and let people transfer all characters on their account for a limited time with a new expansion. I bet that simple gesture would allow more people to play with each other and probably earn them more money in the long run.

What Sanctum upgrades did you guys go first?

Any recommendations? I'm talking about any covenant, regardless of covenant. What upgrades should you prioritize?

Does teleports get you better rewards? Or does Anima Conductor mean better WQ rewards?

The Teleports upgrade says unique rewards (does that mean pets?? Does teleports help you do WQ's faster?) And Conductor says "improved rewards", which I am guessing means ilevel on WQs? Or does it just mean bigger anima for your effort?

Anyone prioritize mission table?

So just finished leveling my first alt to 60 - definitely do the story again until about 59.75 or something. Threads of fate is quite a bit slower, even powering through dungeons.
