Onyxia: Journey Through the Dark Portal!

[RayWinter]

I would like to thank the staff and devs for their patience with the community and for this information, TBC HYPE!

[egn4040]

pretty sure x3

[Dince]

What about racial change? Are we going to be able to change our race with coins?

[kingkush]

Oooh yeah!

[Awidiusw]

pretty sure x3

Well, Warmane's TBC in 2017, it was 5x rates on experience, so I hope they will keep the rates the same.

Unfortunately, no clarifications regarding any of the open questions like:

Heck, the announcement doesn't even state if we get bloodelves and draenei accessible during pre-patch or not.
It was always communicated to be Original TBC and not the classic remake. Hence, people would assume that it will NOT include the new races til Outlands access.

Further points missing include:
- vanilla raids change back to 40 players on PTR
- tinnitus from drums
- professions (engi helmets, jewelcrafter meta caster meta gems, etc.) phase alignment
- much more

WTF just a week from opening dark portal and first raids?!?
Postpone it to be atleast 2-3 weeks from opening dark portal so players can prepare with pre bis, profs, etc...

[veshextra]

honor resets etc.?

If it would mimic original TBC wouldnt we get T5 on launch alongside T4? Since we only get T4 we can assume it is going to be a more TBC Classic content patch approach.

From this post we could also make the guess of not getting goggles or spell hit gems on launch, however nothing is set in stone I guess.

when will faction change be available?

Week is fine. On TBC classic they were open from day 1 and you dont need pre bis to clear them. On world first mag/gruul clear most people were wearing naxx gear and some were not even level 70 and they did it on first attempt.

You do realise we had the same thing with MC after Onyxia launched, we had 1 week to prepare.

The day after the release of Path of Exile 2, is the most horrible noobish choice WM could ever make to maximize player base.

A lot of people interested in both will try POE2 one day earlier than TBC and completely disregard TBC if the POE2 game hype kicks in.

That was a terrible terrible choice, one day EARLIER than POE2 would be a way smarter move.

The day after the release of Path of Exile 2

Its not release, only early access.
