Everything You Want to Know
About WARLORDS OF DRAENOR
Hello, fellow WoW
players, enthusiasts, and gamers who are contemplating re-subscribing. Bchace here!
I know, it’s been a week or so since my last post. However, I’d like to commit
to a follow-up article on a similar topic that you most certainly will be interested in, World of Warcraft’s upcoming
5th expansion, Warlords of Draenor. This article will cover everything you could possibly want to
know about WoD!
“But, Bchace, I’m still on the fence about re-subscribing! I don’t like
this, and this, and this… and CATA sucked, and Mists of Pandaria wasn’t much
better! PANDAS, man! PANDAS!”
I’ve heard that, and I entirely
understand. Blizzard has wronged you in the past, just as much as they’ve
wronged me, a faithful World of Warcraft player of 7+ years. I understand your
apprehension, HOWEVER, please take the time to reconsider playing, as Blizzard is taking us back, to a time where
WoW was the single greatest MMO on the market, to the era of the Old Horde, and
to3 the home world of the Orcs- Draenor.
“It is the era of an Old
Horde, forged with steel rather than fel blood. A union of great orc clans, the
Iron Horde, tramples the planet Draenor beneath terrifying war machines.
Azeroth falls next. Worlds uncounted will follow.
You must mount a
desperate charge on Draenor – savage home of orcs and adopted bastion of stoic
draenei – at this pivotal moment. Your allies are legends from across time;
your fortress a foothold in an alien land. Lead the armies of one world against
another…before the future itself is unmade.”
NEW CHARACTER MODELS
In Warlords of
Draenor, the original 8 character models are being overhauled, along with the 2
Burning Crusade races, the Blood Elves and the Draenei. These new models will
support a high resolution of detail, updated animations, and new visuals that
better reflect their characteristics. Here is an image of the new Orc model,
one of the earliest released by Blizzard…
INSTA-90
“Wait, you can
instantly level a character to 90?!”
^
The above statement is 100% true (I’ve already used mine on an Undead Warrior).
A level 90 character boost is another feature that is FREE to all who
pre-purchase Warlords of Draenor. The boost is entirely optional; you do not have to use the boost if you don’t
want to. The character you so choose as your champion will be boosted to level
90, with item level 483 gear (greens), 280% flight speed, a small amount of
gold, and provisions. Not too shabby, huh? But, wait, there’s more. If you use
your boost on a character level 60 or higher, your chosen professions,
including First Aid, will be maxed out at level 600, and you will also be given
a second set of gear, strictly for PvP.
GARRISONS
-Garrisons are a customizable fortress where you, the player, have the
ability to make it your own with specialized structures, such as farms,
stables, armories, workshops, and more! Unlock new quests, establish trade
routes, and even earn gear and new pets to support your character.
ZONES
The
current zones are as follows…
Tanaan Jungle
Gorgrond
Talador
Spires of Arak
Frostfire Ridge
Shadowmoon Valley
And a World PvP Zone (TBD)
(In-game Screenshots to be released in the next article)
I’ll be releasing more
info soon in the next section of this article. Alpha footage is being released as I am editing and finishing up this article. Dungeon details, Raid details, new NPC models, and weapon images. If you can’t wait, and want more
information RIGHT NOW, check out these links below!
Game on, guys!
