Blizzard has officially released the World of Warcraft Nostalgic Server Exploration Season P2 Blue Sticker Announcement. In the announcement, in addition to introducing the new group book, dungeons, runes, PVP, and class updates, the topic of "banning G groups" was particularly emphasized.
The blue sticker statesBlizzard is experimenting with a new policy that will no longer allow GDKP (Group G) to operate during Season of Discovery. While we understand that the Gold Troop has its benefits for players looking for easy access to gear, but we also recognize concerns about the possible erosion of traditional guilds and social structures, and these are important parts of exploring the spirit of the seasons. Due to the experimental nature of the Season of Exploration, we hope that this type of trading will not appear in the game mode. With the opening of the P2 phase on February 9, we will be restricting such activities.
This wave of sudden operation, everyone was stunnedBut the sudden cancellation of the G group can really make the Warcraft ecology better?It's hard to say.
Similar to the Dark Abyss in P1, Nomorigen is a 10-player team quest with 6 bosses, with an additional boss. The first five bosses have been redesigned, and this dungeon will also introduce a new world buff.
A variety of new items and rewards will be available in the dungeon, as well as more Epic quality rewards from others**. New class sets will be available for players, and quests and rewards will be adjusted for level 40 players. In addition, players can participate in new class quest chains and earn new materials that can be used to craft more powerful items.
In order to balance the experience of core players and casual players, the new group book will be launched as soon as the P2 phase opens. However, after the start of the P2 phase, the first two cooldowns of the new group will be updated every 7 days, and then changed to 3 days. Leading players have immediate access to Nomorigen as soon as they reach level 40 to minimize the number of cooldowns missed by players with slower upgrades.
New loot aspect
Blizzard has made some homages to the main items that originally existed in this dungeon, such as the "Auto Crowd Striker" that will allow players to use it over and over again. Please note that all items shown below are still under adjustment and may not reflect final statistics.
In terms of suits
To help players acquire other pieces that are difficult to collect, "Armor Parts Exchange" will be dropped, allowing players to use to pick up other missing set pieces. For example, if you can't find your boots all the time, you can use the "Boot Part Exchange" to purchase them from NPCs.
New Career Skill Book
It will be used as a drop item in the 5-player book, does not occupy a rune slot, and helps solve some class class problems, such as the short duration of the paladin's blessed aura, the shaman's totem control, etc.
PvP rewards
If you want to buy new rewards with tokens, you look for merchants outside the Gulabash Arena. Players will be able to earn new class-specific item rewards.
Mounts
Players can also earn two new mounts by participating in the event, and these level 40 mounts have new skins. In addition, there are new quests to help earn prestige in the Arathi Basin.
New professional skills
Players will discover about twenty new recipes across all non-gathering classes, including recipes for alchemy, enchantment, engineering, and leathermaking, tailoring, and blacksmithing. The class cap for the second phase is 225. As with the first phase, players will be able to unlock these recipes by completing an epic quest chain, but without spoilers!
Catch-up mechanics
In order to provide an XP buff for players between levels 1 and 25, Blizzard will provide a 50% XP buff. The experience buff from the Dark Abyss is still 3 days, and players above level 39 will not be able to use the world buff. More on the adjustment of the missing goods will be shared later, but the experience gained from them at the time of delivery will increase significantly.
