This is the first time playing WoW that I feel like my main is a selection and not a definitive forced choice. I am super excited to start playing especially after this video giving me an really deep look into the changes coming.
Thank you for being through, every other video only covers what you get. I have just returned to wow after 4 years so lots of change but there is nothing to explain until you get there.
Thank you, once again, for another fantastic guide. One question: I am currently mapping out my chars to get all armour classes in each covenant. You mentioned in the video that the covenant trasnmog will only be available to the respective character? It would be great if you could maybe clarify, if I understood that correctly. Thx in advance! Stay safe.
Yea, not exactly respective character but any character that is part of that covenant, so if you have your main that is Venthyr and you unlocked the full transmog and your alt is also Venthyr, you can use it but if your alt is any other covenant can't. And vice versa. Cheers.
Thank you for making this video.. now the hard part is how to explain to my 10yro and 8yro kids.. they love WOW and somehow got to level 60 without my assistance (they played since 6 months ago)
Im a bit confused maybe someone can help me... if u can get 2 renown levels a week how does that take just 7-9 weeks shouldnt it be 20 weeks up to lvl 40 then? Thx for helping🙏🏻
Covenant Campaign chapters/quests also grant 1 renown, so there's weeks you get 3. There's 9 Chapter's so 9(*) renown you get on top. The weeks/renown estimation is pretty rough because some things are not perfectly clear like recently this week we though we would get the 2 Renown Weeklies but we just got one so yea. :)
So let me clarify this. Regarding the switching covernant, we can actually aim for right before weekly reset to do the 2 weeks chain and continue progressing where we were left off?
The quest is simply filled the bar in the zone of that covenant, so a dungeon in that zone counts and it will fill it pretty quick, cant remember exactly the numbers but that with a couple WQ's...rares... and you done. So it's a 1 to 2h job. If you do it before the reset, on reset day you will get part 2 of the quest. So you do it all over again and you back in the covenant. Keep in mind, going to a new Covenant you never been in, you just talk to the npcs and that's it.
Do we know how long covenants are going to take to get to 60? 2 weeks? 1 month? 3 months? 6 Months? I'm freaking out currently cause there's no real insight. Like i want to go Kyrian for my priest for Transmog/mounts but i need to go Venthyr for raiding for high end, but the cloth transmogs looks trash. Just don't want to be locked in for entire expac
If you leave a covenant you lose everything. so if your going to change for xmogs and mounts then do it at the end of the xpac after you're done raiding or maybe even do it in the next expansion when covenants dont matter any more except for xmogs.
I hated Shadowlands until I hit 60 and the Covenants came into the picture. I’m having fun with the whole Covenant feature + Dungeons/Gear/Professions.
I thought bfa was complex damn I was wrong it's so stupid to be honest doing so so many systems I'm so lost what anima is and what souls are and how to get them and at the end how to get the covenant basic set
"Its a pretty personal choice" Ahhh come on stop acting like it wont be cookiecutter which covenant you need to join for your class because of the Ability Synergy.
Of course, I meant personal as in, are you a player that follows what is best for your class or you don't care as much so you go for what you like. And your choice will derive from that. (what I believe most people do and will do, is of course the former)
:o I did say weekly is tied to player power, which requires Anima but Anima itself as a resource is simply war resources which isn't directly providing power.
@@SelwenG Im a big fan of yours to be honest. But it's like a loophole and a lot of youtubers are using to say its a much better system. But in reality it is not. Now you must do the one Renown weekly to keep up with player power and that one Renown weekly is to get 1500 anima. If you do a dungeon you get 35 anima, there are no major gains in anima in world so it ends up being a grind to get anima, to turn in for weekly to get renown up which is player power. All they did is put Anima behind another system, a system within a system. I really dont know how that is any better.
@@lazarus7860 yea that's fair, granted anima was more abundant in beta than it is currently since we had characters fully upgraded and callings gave nice amounts of anima which made it super easy to achieve the weekly. Definitely feels more grindy on live. However since you have a full week to get it done I don't feel its as bad as regular AP, part of it I feel is beign done in background but that's me not rushing it. All that said, I do completly get what you guys mean.
Ikr, blizzard going nuts on currencies. (With my accent and pronunciation cant differentiate the sound much, its probably something simple but takes me a while to train myself :P)
@@SelwenG yeh man i totally understand that. my comment was more in jest. but yeh it's almost like they want us to farm enema ie shit. Seems like an inside joke @ blizz.
the fact that u can´t swap covenants fast and easy is the worst dicission blizz could make... forces u into playing high level pve or pvp! u can´t do both! super stupid
@@marks2807 Blizzard does not get money for "getting on every day" they get money from subs! I just can not believe the mission table alone is going to keep anyone playing and paying a sub!
Everything is analytics with blizzard. They see what we engage with, and assume that is what we want rather then actually go on the forums. So if we do something everyday it will stay in the game. If no one used the mission tables then their analytics would tell them we don't like them.
This is the first time playing WoW that I feel like my main is a selection and not a definitive forced choice. I am super excited to start playing especially after this video giving me an really deep look into the changes coming.
One of the best guides I've seen. Thanks for sharing.
As someone that has been avoiding everything wow until recently this is very useful lmao thank you!
Super helpful video and in-depth, thank you brother!
Thank you for being through, every other video only covers what you get. I have just returned to wow after 4 years so lots of change but there is nothing to explain until you get there.
Do you feel the chill running up your spine?The intro is rolling
I give this a big thumbs up. Very comprehensive and helpful guide.
Thanks for making this clear and detailed video

@@SelwenG Thank you so much for clarifying! Well, that totally takes the pressure from me and my OCD. :-) Enjoy the launch!
Great guide. Good job. Thank you.
I hope Shadowlands is worth the time, good luck y'all.
Thank you
Its been good so far just hit level 58
How Long does it take to get campain armor ????? A week ? I grind alot
Remember when WOW had no battle pass? Those were the days

@@SelwenG ok thank u 👌 still a long time for my transmog 😭😂 but blizzard seems to know how to keep subs for a long time ... haha
Awesome video! Manythanks!
Nice video thank you for the info! I think that this google doc is no longer being updated tho, unlucky
So let me clarify this.
Regarding the switching covernant, we can actually aim for right before weekly reset to do the 2 weeks chain and continue progressing where we were left off?
Does anybody have information of how long would it take to complete 1 week round of that chain?
The quest is simply filled the bar in the zone of that covenant, so a dungeon in that zone counts and it will fill it pretty quick, cant remember exactly the numbers but that with a couple WQ's...rares... and you done. So it's a 1 to 2h job.

@@SelwenG That's very informative, tks a lot
How do you do mission table stuff on your phone?
Wow companion app
Really was a great and informative video, truly - ignore all the negative comments :)
it doesn't matter which covenant you choose, pick whatever you like.

May I have your elvui settings? I rly like it
There you go, if there's issues Ill have a video soon on how to setup. drive.google.com/file/d/1QdEvI32IQJbE6FP1lZws1AM27PBN0bFA/view?usp=sharing
Do you mean I have to finish the bfa campaign before I can choose a covenant in shadowlands? Or will there be a shadowland campaign?
Shadowlands leveling campaign story quests.
I hated Shadowlands until I hit 60 and the Covenants came into the picture. I’m having fun with the whole Covenant feature + Dungeons/Gear/Professions.
your voice is so soothing!
You said there would be a link for the BiS covenant list but I can't find it
My bad, it's up right now.
Do covenant abilities work in pvp?
Yep
Is that UI available as a pack?
It's all Elvui.
P.s.
Love your videos! :)
hum... so 3/4 special buildings are just cosmetic but Fae gives crafting materials...?
Fairy advantage!
Maybe they added/or will to the other ones, but since I did them only fae gave them.

Man anyway we can get your ui profile
I thought bfa was complex damn I was wrong it's so stupid to be honest doing so so many systems I'm so lost what anima is and what souls are and how to get them and at the end how to get the covenant basic set

Ahhh come on stop acting like it wont be cookiecutter which covenant you need to join for your class because of the Ability Synergy.
Of course, I meant personal as in, are you a player that follows what is best for your class or you don't care as much so you go for what you like. And your choice will derive from that.
(what I believe most people do and will do, is of course the former)
all i hear is grind grind grind timegte timegate timegate
Wow, there is a lot going on.
when you say anima, sounds like you say enema
Anima takes a long time to get and it is tied to player power because it takes anima for renown weekly quest, Selwen why did you lie there?
:o I did say weekly is tied to player power, which requires Anima but Anima itself as a resource is simply war resources which isn't directly providing power.

A nima
not Enema
Enema is a rectum cleanse lol

wrong. Anima upgrades sanctum gear

Why does Blizzard add a new mission table in every exp? It is way too simple and stupid! Like a Tamagotchi, you are forced to pet every day!
Because people get on everyday to do it.
