New Regions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nOne of the main things that have been added to World of Warcraft following the latest Shadowlands expansion are the entirely new regions, as well as the new world. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This new world is known as the Shadowlands itself, which is also the name of the expansion itself. The Shadowlands is a place where the departed are sent to after their mortal life has ended. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Depending on exactly how a specific mortal lives their life, they are sent to one of the many different regions that are featured in the Shadowlands. There is a total of 5 said regions, and all 5 are also accessible for players. These 5 regions are the new regions that have been introduced to the game with the latest expansion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every single one of the regions has a little story to it. The names of these new regions are, The Maw, Bastion, Ardenweald, Revendreth, and lastly, Maldraxxus. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Bastion is the region where mortals are given the highest duty that they can possibly be given, which is to carry souls of the deceased to the shadowlands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Maw on the other hand is the most disturbing of the 5 new regions, where the worst of the worst mortal spirits are sent to suffer for eternity. It is also said that one of the strongest beings in all of WoW is chained deep inside of The Maw, and the entire universe would be destroyed if said being was released. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Like this, every single region has a little bit of an interesting story behind it which can be further explored by doing specific quests for each region and paying some extra attention to your surroundings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Changes to Levelling<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nThe levelling system in the game has also been altered, and many would argue that this alteration was for the better. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These changes are meant to make the mechanic feel much better than it was, and to serve as a means of preparing the newer adventurers for all that they are set to face in the new expansion. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each increase in level also provides a much more meaningful increase in power as well as more progress. Players will have to level up all the way to 50 before they can finally make their way to the Shadowlands, but the new changes to the leveling system make much less of a grind than it sounds like. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The level cap has been changed as well, allowing level 50 players to now reach 60.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
4. New Gameplay Features and Modes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nOne of the most important changes made to the game is obviously the set of additions that have been introduced with World of Warcraft Shadowlands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main new feature and probably the best one that comes to mind are the Covenants. The Covenants are basically a feature like factions which has been seen in many games before this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
You choose one of four new Covenants that have been added to the game, and you get special bonuses by doing so. Every single one has unique pros and cons, meaning that you should choose carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is also the Torghast, which is an entirely new mode that players can spend an endless amount of time on. That\u2019s because the Torghast is an infinitely long dungeon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This new mode plays a lot like dungeon crawler games. It goes on forever and you can approach it on your own or in a group with all of your friends that also play WoW. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Depending on how far off you make it into the Torghast, you\u2019ll get amazing awards that will greatly help you on your journey as you delve deeper into the Shadowlands.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
