All information about upcoming WoW expansion

All information about upcoming WoW expansion

At Blizzcon there was already awaited announcement of the upcoming World of Warcraft Addon Warlords of Draenor. We have all the important information for you.

Housing, sandbox PvP, companion and many other small changes. We'll give you a summary of the information sheet to World of Warcraft: Warlords of Draenor.

History

In Mists of Pandaria, players were able to rise and fall Garrosh Hellscream's experience as Warchief of the Horde. However, this is not really happy about his downfall and travels back using a powerful ally in time and tries to give a different twist to fate. He manages to make the Iron Horde, consisting of various clans that fall on Draenor and take from there to conquer. However, Garrosh will not return the honor to be the villain in Warlords of Draenor, it also marks only the quasi-history. players as you travel again through the Dark Portal and you have your future, and thus the existing world save. Your explored during the adventure, the emergence of the famous orc clans, learn the background of the Draenei and the Blood Elves too.

The new world of Draenor

With the renewed travel through the Dark Portal, the heroes of Azeroth to explore the new world of Draenor before it shattered and broken world, known from the addon "The Burning Crusade" was. At launch there will be seven zones for quests, including each one starting area for the Alliance and the Horde. Of course, each site again offer a lot of variety in the environment and details: From snow-capped, rugged mountains, the landscape turns into a dense forest, you are guided through a jungle! Enter decomposed by fire holes explored populated deserts and coastal areas.

Also known zones from The Burning Crusade to be found on Draenor, but you will never recognize at first glance, because they have been completely revised. So you can find for example the Shadowmoon again, but heavily wooded and less shattered than in the second WoW addon. Even the Black Temple will again have a meaning, but a very different than it was several years ago. As of last extension to keep the developers a lot of space in addition to the already existing areas of Warlords of Draenor open to coming there still islands with content furnish patches.

Housing in WoW garrisons

Now with the upcoming expansion Blizzard brings their own way of Housings in World of Warcraft. Players can build their own garrison and in each quest area of Draenor. There are various buildings can be built that give you different bonuses. You can access this also in part to professions on their do not actually have. ., For example if you have a mine in your garrison, it comes close, even without mining of ores when the buildings are completely removed, you can from various bonuses select, including, among other things, a kind soul gem: Once a day, you can look on the spot can revive and saves you the way to the cemetery. However, how these bonuses are also in raids is still unclear. Most likely, however, they are disabled in order not to influence the game mechanics too much. You can invite your group members in garrison, where they can interact with your buildings and NPCs. Oh, NPCs will also play an important role in Warlords of Draenor, because in your garrison can hire her companion, the lot of the Companions of Star Wars: The Old Republic remember. You can move around with them, they level up, new equip and send them on missions - as in SWTOR even if you are offline.

The e-peen must not be missing here and thanks to successes you can by special acts, among other monuments in your build garrison, with which you can then splurge a little in front of your friends.

Dungeons

For the leek extension, there will be seven groups dungeons, including four while you level and three exclusive to the maximum level. Of course there will continue to fashion the difficulty Normal, Heroic and Challenge. Also known dungeons of the vanilla time again accessible for players and developers revealed already that UBRS is one of the dungeons (here's a little thank you to the developers of me, for to classical times I had it next to SCHOLO and Dire Maul simply on most fun). Whether it's for very early as 15, as later for ten or as usual now for only five players, was not betrayed.

Raids

Warlords of Draenor starts with two raids, high foot and BlackRock Foundry. You must first defeat the six bosses from high foot to then gain access to the ten bosses in Blackrock Foundry. Moreover, there is a large and very sensible change to the basic structure of the Raids and blame are the Flex raids: You assume the role of the moment existing 10 and 25-Raids. These fall away, for it is now "only" the flex raids and your group can vary in the number of players between ten and 25 people. Then of course there is also the heroic mode in the Flex Raid and the difficulty should not be so loud developers softened now as in the flexible raid even in normal mode. There will also be the Looking for Raid tool for 25 people and there is a new mode to Azeroth: Mythic raids. However, up to now only known that you will need for 20 players. Of course, there will also be new world bosses.

Sandbox PvP

Blizzard calls it sandbox PvP and can of course many players take notice. An island is the name Ashran persistent PvP world in which players can take bases and in the battle continues day and night. Sounds a little like the WvWvW from Guild Wars 2 - we are curious. Much more detail, however, are sown incredibly rare, so we'll have to stay a little longer tense.

New level cap and dump Item

Of course you will not get around in the extension to the level up and how it was to be expected from the Heirloom weapons of Garrosh, the new maximum level is set to 100. However, developers will lower the inflationary Stats of the characters hard to squeeze the numbers of values ​​back into a clear framework. During an HC equippter tank in the current content now loosely abuts the million hit point brand, is this to be somewhat lowered and all existing items will be greatly reduced in value. That would also make sense because now the DDs are already partially loose at the limit 400k DPS in some fights and then would have to Warlords of Draenor in the tens of millions more move if the current trend would continue.

Boost your character

Blizzard probably the most clever move at the announcement: You will see a character, whether dusty several years or just created, lift directly at level 90 and then start directly with your friends in the new addon. Sure that they get some players back into the boat, which again have slowly interest again reinzuschauen, where the effort level but would clearly be too high.

Graphical makeover

And again, the graphic is drilled and decorated with more details: Already known are models of some new character classes that are clearly considerable than their predecessors. Hair and wiggle movements in the body are much more detailed. But I watch it for yourself:

Improved UI

As in Mists of Pandaria, the developers take successful mods as a template and then screw a little at the UI around. So you will not need Deadly Bossmods more and see all the relevant timers from home, get your bag slots easier ways to sort and so on, for example, on battlefields. In addition, the inventory is significantly tidier and there are, for example, an extra page for heirloom or fun items, as it is now already with mounts and pets, so you no longer have to carry around this in your inventory. Also quest items disappear from inventory and no longer clog the bags.

Conclusion:
Since Blizzard has really made ​​some thoughts as they consider new and old players back to the World of Warcraft. A kind of housing, companion, more comfort in the interface and above all always familiar with the contact from the good old days. Be it the return to Shadowmoon or the opportunity to visit UBRS again in the current content, certainly bring back some memories paused players who greatly facilitate the entry. Definitely sounds quite exciting and some features will surely change the gameplay. Though the two airports are playable at BlizzCon, sound the few details that have been trumpeted by the developers, but not really then, that a new version in the near future will appear. Even the videos of the individual areas not yet looked as if the work had already roughly final. There was also no time limited, when you want it to come to the launch or launch a beta. So the players will probably still have to deal with for a while Garrosh and his henchmen.
