Like contributing to buildings or killing elite monsters, something that you would have achieved over a longer period of time.<\/li>\n<li>Everyone you see flying at the moment has faced the outside world challenges of Legion and thus earned the ability to fly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Invasions<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>There are no plans to shut down the invasions anytime soon.<\/li>\n<li>Had the invasion success been necessary for the flight ability, it would have been rather annoying. Nobody wants to get up at 3 a.m. for an invasion.<\/li>\n<li>Time wandering wouldn&#039;t be fun anymore if it were permanently available.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Broken shoreline buildings<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Contrary to the expectations of the team, the contributions have not decreased so far.<\/li>\n<li>Should this change, the team will adjust the raw materials required.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Time gating<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>This is necessary to be able to tell a compelling story that drives the Alliance and Horde together towards the finale.<\/li>\n<li>Unlocking the Sargeras Crypt with the release of 7.2 would have made no sense as world history was not yet ready.<\/li>\n<li>The team admits that they didn&#039;t plan the release of the individual stories and gameplay elements as well as they would have liked. This should work better in the future.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>World of Warcraft Patch 7.2 Content size<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>In terms of added quests, creatures, text and other things, 7.2 was a very big patch.<\/li>\n<li>More language lines have been added for 7.2 than any previous extension.<\/li>\n<li>The development team asks at this point what the players would like to see more, for example whether small content such as the island of thunder story questline is sufficient?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Sargeras test tomb<\/h3>\n<p>There will be more tests for LFR, Heroic and Mythic in the coming weeks<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Class mounts<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>As soon as you have completed the Legionfall campaigns, you switch your class mount Friday<\/p>\n<h3>Cross-realm zones<\/h3>\n<p>The team is aware of the lag and latency problems and they want to fix them. With the start of Legion, a new &quot;sharding&quot; technology was installed, which is why the start went so smoothly.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Heirloom upgrades<\/strong> are planned for patch 7.2.5.<\/p>\n<h3>Legendary item upgrades<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>With the release of the crypt, the item level will be increased by 30 for everything.<\/li>\n<li>New legendary items will drop at level 970 and can be improved via quest.<\/li>\n<li>Legendary upgrade items will drop immediately without having to accept a quest beforehand.<\/li>\n<li>The upgrade item will increase the item from 910 to 970.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Black Temple Timewalking<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>This is linked to the Burning Crusade Timewalking Event.<\/li>\n<li>The team would like to have a timewalking raid for each event<\/li>\n<li>Which raid would you like to see in the respective expansions?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Horde story<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Now that Vol&#039;jin is dead, what update do you want?<\/li>\n<li>Stories are told as it makes sense in the world of World of Warcraft.<\/li>\n<li>The team found the time fit to complete this episode of Allianz history.<\/li>\n<li>There is no need to be symmetrical and no story will be told that doesn&#039;t fit.<\/li>\n<li>The Horde had an extra cutscene at the beginning of the Broken Shore.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Weapons illusions<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>One will not be able to apply illusions to the artifact weapons.<\/li>\n<li>For artistic reasons, this decision was made very early on<\/li>\n<li>Visual effects have to be attached to certain points on a weapon and would therefore severely limit the possibilities of design.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you want to see the full video on Twitch, you can find it on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/videos\/138463238\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">official World of Warcraft Channel.<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the Q&amp;A livestream, World of Warcraft developer Ion Hazzikosta answered a lot of questions and revealed a lot of information about patch 7.2.
