World of Warcraft: Dragonflight skips the grind for alt characters<\/div>\n

Playing World of Warcraft<\/em> gives a player lots of choices and quests, which in theory is fantastic. However, over the game’s many expansions, the formula occasionally fails to work out. Some prefer to concentrate on their main character, while keeping the rest of the content current. Other people prefer to keep a whole stable of characters they can play. Those players will likely be happy with the approach Blizzard is taking in the next expansion, Dragonflight<\/em>. <\/em> Almost all progress made on the Dragon Isles will be account-wide, according to game director Ion Hazzikostas. <\/p>\n

Hazzikostas and lead narrative Steve Danuser answered fan questions about the upcoming expansion in a Twitter space this Wednesday<\/a>. One of the earliest answers had to do with account-wide progress for systems like reputation, factions, and the upcoming dragonriding skill. Hazzikostas stated that “almost all” applies to alts on accounts, except for individual quest rewards or other items that are part of a character\u2019s journey. In addition, a few features will be jumping over from Shadowlands<\/em>. For example, once a character has completed the Dragon Isles’ narrative story, alts will choose whether they’d like to play through the same linear campaign, or skip straight to endgame activities to gain experience. <\/p>\n

This is intriguing news for those with lots of alts, because it means skipping a lot of the grinds that plagued the Shadowlands <\/em>expansion early on. Many players complained that they had to grind their Covenant, Covenant, Renown campaigns to obtain all the goodies. This system would allow players to give up on a character and try something new. Players can switch to try out the Dracthyr Evoker later in the expansion without penalty, or give a new class a spin on a whim. <\/p>\n

Dragonflight <\/em>currently does not have a release date. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
