i feel like renown wasnt an issue ... the issue was with covenants as a whole and them being 4 separate things which all had different things to obtain and do ... this was a major issue i hope is not repeated
I hope they make things like renown and reputation account-wide. That would fix the issue with alts and always having to catch up on these systems. Once you have earned it on one character it's unlocked and useable by all characters on your account, like how transmog, mounts and pets, or unlocking flying works. Having these systems and new things they add tied to your account as a whole instead of per character would make the whole experience more enjoyable.
I'm so excited for another grind timegated. What a moment to feel alive.This is trully blizzlike. Expect the worst and never get disappointed.
There it is!
"&*!@#s are us" should be their new name. Please god no!
Lol it could be account wide, not time gated, not tied to player power and be cosmetic only and players will still complain it exists.
If this is just reputations all over, im fine with that, we had that before, it was just tied to each zoneso this sounds like its just rep enhanced with better rewardsworld quests and level that bar
I hope it goes better this time because I main a Survival Hunter so, the Necrolords wouldn't be a good fit for me. So, I don't know when or if I'm ever going to get rewards from that covenant.
Well at least Blizzard is being truthful that they intend to time gate progress again. So the question is are they going to deliver content or use the system as an excuse to deliver less value to the players like they did in Shadowlands? Be fore you go and criticize my reply I want you to look each BFA patch and compare it to each Shadowlands patch and honestly ask yourself if they Blizzard delivered at least comparable content value for your money.
Renown was a garbage system, it still is a garbage system, and no matter how "Catch-uppy" you make it, it will continue to be a bad idea. Take lessons from those who came before you and just go back to Reputation grinds, but make them account wide. It really is that simple.
This is fine.
this is literally just a rep system with a catchup mechanic not tied to player power, this is sick. the rep system in antiquated, i'm glad renown is staying around
This is good. New things that have been improved slowly over a whole expansion, should be iterated on. I think renown in itself was nice. The issue arrived when conduits/soulbinds were tied to it and swapping covenants was not really feasible. The problem with renown was the system it was tied to, not renown itself.
hold on to your hats because if there's renown then there will be time gating renown level increases.. gg Blizzard
Inb4, "REEEE worst idea ever".We're not talking player power, we're not talking abilities. We're just talking Renown as a concept, with no guarantee of the same pacing or amounts. And frankly, after sitting through the people initially saying "Isn't this just Borrowed Power flavored Reputation?" at the start of Shadowlands, who would've thought, that they keep the Renown level system for Reputations, especially after people seemed very very annoyed with general "reputation everything" in SL too.
