GAME

Participating in every one of the Covenants and learning the meaning behind them can prepare you for the huge decision to make when you"ve reached your max level. At that point you"ll have the option to choose an Covenant to join. This will offer you specific WoTLK Gold cosmetic options for how you appear, as well as special abilities specific to your class, that are only available to the Covenant.

The choice to join the Covenant offers an end-of-game story campaign specific to that group, which provides a reason to make different choices using other characters.

"While we don"t offer specifically, new player races, we are looking at the possibility of joining your Covenant for one of their major systemsthat has a direct impact on race as well as classes," Cash said. "When you"re going through the Shadowlands in the same way, as John mentioned on this huge narrative adventure, you"ll be exposed to all of them and having the opportunity to play with their toys to say, hey, when you join us, you"re going to get the following and this as opposed to this and this and that kind of thing, and so on. When you finally reached that point where you can choose it"s important to have players with a thorough understanding of, especially from a gameplay perspective, what they"ll get. Also, once they"re there, players will unlock all sorts of cosmetic upgrades, armor sets and mounts, and all these things. Between those two things, you end up having some sort of secondary identity. Of course, you"re a warrior in the main, but perhaps you"re a Tauren warrior, or whatever it might be However, you"re also likely to have the identity in Shadowlands as Kyrian. Kyrian or whatever you choose."

Apart from the Covenant that you"ll get in Shadowlands You"ll also come across the Soulbind system that"s been introduced in Shadowlands. According to the way Cash explained from a practical standpoint Soulbinds work like artifacts. You can use one at a single time to gain specific abilities. But Soulbinds aren"t just for gear. They are tied to characters that encountered in Shadowlands.

"As you become a member of an Covenant, you"re going to meet certain people within that covenant who you"ll assist in a way," he said. "Maybe you can save them from danger, or they are able to save you from great danger, or you end up sharing a bond, or connection. They will, at some point inevitably provide to take part in this ritual for you. This is an activity that every soul race in the Shadowlands are involved in, a process known as Soulbinding. It"s a kind of exactly as it sounds, this link, this powerful kind of ephemeral bond between two souls. When you are in a soul bind with someone in the WoTLK Classic Gold and you gain certain powers and they gain some of yours."
