The more I read about this, the further my heart sinks when everything goes back to the godawful expansion that's Shadowlands. Just no.
So no more Paragon caches?
All I see with this change is me porting to Orgrimmar again and again just to repair. Because the renown system won't give repair cost discount. Sucks to be a poor casual who can't get gold anymore from farming old dungeons or selling a few fish or pots on the AH. Anyone remember the good old days where honored gave max and only repair discount? *Sigh*
So, basically reputation levels no longer have fancy names and are more granular.Exciting.
tbh i'm not in favor of defavor of account wide. If it's like the renom on S1 on shadowlands, what we need is (maybe) time gated renom farm on main, and catchup DIRECTLY for alts, not on the next patch. It ensure renom increase faster on rerolls, like we have now on SL, and it's pretty fine, because every activity catch up very fast. Just, don't timegate on alts , only the first character if you want to do that.Also prepare skips on questlines for rerolls now, not after doing 50th the maw questline...
Not a fan of the different max reknown points but I suppose this lets them increase the max points over time with subsequent patches of DF.
So its Covenants without player power and all the hoop jumping for anyone who actually enjoys the rewards. If this is not some how eleviated with a buff to Renown gain on alts its gonna turn alot of people off. I think SWOTR gave you benefits for playing alts if Blizz did that and implemented a buff to renown gain per alt at max renown would go a long way. They won't though since they seldom make adjustments to make the players life easier.
