I have a question about returning to covenants. It says ...
By the Light I just realized. Every day I'll want to switch between each Covenant for the Korthia dailies so that I do each Covenant's dailies while I am on THAT Covenant for a chance at those stupid mogs.
If they really wanna make it work, add a possibility to manage soulbinds/counduits in Oribos.Optional:- move mission and covenant construction to Oribos as well.- make covenants spec specific- keep renown progression. There is no reason to reset if, even if you switch to a covenant for the first time after you hit 80 on another. The campaigns are ALMOST the same.
Is 40-80 renown fast and easy? Yes. Is it a bull$%^& grind for a bull@#$% reason? Yes.Followers start at level 0. Holy ^&*! that's bad.Blizzard learned nothing, as expected.
Is it so hard to make covenant swaps without any restrictions? Like all your anima, followers, conduits, etc are stay with you
And it makes plenty of sense to make players grindgrindgrind? For such company as Blizzard it's very easy to make covenant swaps with all the "biscuits" saved
So, what about conduits + conduit levels?Anima gathered in the pool?There's still loads of questions.Also, why only "Renown 40" ?
So if I leave my covenant, then return to it, do all my followers retain their exp? This still seems super grindy.
Unlocking free covenant swaps is really simple. All you need to do is to reach Renown 80 with a character to earn Renowned. Currently, earning this achievement on the PTR unlocks free covenant swap to all characters in your account. Battle.net or seperate wow license? For context i have 4 family accounts linked under a single email so if i get Renown 80 Achieve on one of the accounts will it affect/help the connected accounts. (WoW2/WoW3/WoW4) etc.
still easier to have mutliple toons of same class than swap covenants, they are doing this on purpose, they hate people who actually playing the game (m+, pvp, raid) and only catering towards collectors
I imagine you can take you anima with you in a swap with the new item that also allows you to send anima to alts - you just keep it for yourself albeit a bit clunky, but you're gonna want that reknown catchup item before a swap anyway right?
"FREE" covenant swapping will technically be a reality. The truth is that if you are someone who is waiting for this feature to drop so you can just swap covenants at will depending on what you are doing that moment for the covenant special abilities, you may be feeling "Wrongly led along". I read this post a couple times and the thing is it directly says YES you can change covenants for FREE! And if you go back to your old covenant everything "SHOULD" be as you left it. But here is where things get wonky pretty fast. Once you change to the new covenant you are set at the following: Many of the Shadowlands side-systems are bound to your Covenant. When you first join a covenant, you will face:Back to Renown 1Back to Chapter 1 of the 9.0 Covenant campaignCovenant buildings resetOnly the first Soulbind unlockedAll your deposited Reservoir Anima stays with your CovenantYou will have no Mission Table followersMy point is that even if you do take the level 40 renown token and level the new covenant up to 40. Only the first soulbind is open to you. If I am reading this correctly and going back to older guides for reference here. You still have to do the covenant quests to unlock the other two soulbinds. And that is where I am seeing a BIG problem here. And something that will blow up in their faces if this happens. People want the covenant swaps to be fluid because they want to try other covenants with their specs. Or swap them out for M+ stuff and back again for raid or PvP stuff. If your first soulbind is the only one that's open and you have to quest to unlock the other two. Then this is going to be a complete "S show". How are they not getting the the idea of what the community is asking of them lol? Like seriously this might be me misreading this and being totally off base. But yeah this will feel like a giant baiting scheme to people than a actually good change. We don't want more grind to go on top of the grind we already grinded on top of the grind we already did.
