Battlegrounds
With the new expansion, World of Warcraft 2016, Blizzard has announced new features and changes to the battlegrounds. Starting July 2 and lasting for six days, same-faction battlegrounds will be available. Teams playing in the same-faction battlegrounds will be paired together, and those in the opposing faction’s base will wear tabards and masks. While many players will be happy to see new features, others may not be as happy.
Players who have not reached the level 110 of their characters are automatically awarded with a Crate of Battlefield Goods. Depending on the score of opposing teams, the crate can contain armor, weapons, and relics. Another way to increase the amount of items in the crate is to disrupt the opposing team’s operations. This will allow your faction to continue to replenish their stores.
Dungeons
One of the best things about World of Warcraft 2016 is that Blizzard has finally implemented cooperative content! This is the first time that this has ever happened with the World of Warcraft game series. Previously, players would have to wait for an appropriate tank or healer to join the party. Now, players can team up instantly. However, there are still two problems with that. Let’s take a closer look at the new system.
Abyssal Maw: This was the most awaited dungeon for World of Warcraft, but unfortunately, it wasn’t finished on time. Blizzard designer Greg Street explained that the team simply didn’t have the time to finish it. The cancellation of Abyssal Maw is disappointing for players, but at the same time, the dungeon would have been similar to Ruby Sanctum in Wrath of the Lich King. Players would have gotten quick rewards and recycled content.
Quests
World of Warcraft is famous for its poop quests, so this year’s expansion will feature some new ones. You can even get rewards from plants. The quest is called ‘Plants vs. Zombies,’ and it will have you stopping zombie waves using your botanical wonders. The quest is located beneath Dalaran Crater in the Hillsbrad Foothills, and it gets more difficult as you progress.
The quests in World of Warcraft 2016 are divided into two categories: single-step quests, and follow-up quests. For example, if you have completed a world quest and got an epic dragon, you’ll be rewarded with a gold dragon. World player versus player objectives are marked with crossed swords icons. There are also free-for-all quest areas, where players can complete as many as they want.
Expansion packs
The World of Warcraft 2016 expansion packs added new classes and world-wide locations. Those who want to level up their characters will find new classes such as Blood Elves and Draenei. The PvP system was revamped with new deathmatch battles, which allowed teams of five players to take on each other. This expansion brought new features to the game that have made it more interesting than ever. You can play as one of these classes, or as several as you’d like.
Added content: The expansion packs for the World of Warcraft have many new things to offer. For instance, Warlords of Draenor adds an alternate universe theme to the game. While the previous expansion, Cataclysm, was too radical for many players, this expansion pack has a lot to offer. It features a completely revamped continent, ten new dungeons, 3500 new quests, a fire-breathing dragon, and more.
Races
The World of Warcraft 2016 races are based on the Anglo-Saxon medieval mythology and draw heavily on this conflict between ‘West’ and ‘the other’. Although there are differences between the races, they are usually considered separate subraces. In the U.S., 16 percent of players chose the Blood Elf race, while the same amount of players chose the Gnome race. Interestingly, each of the nine other races saw a one percent difference.
With the latest expansion, World of Warcraft will offer a variety of new races to choose from. As of this writing, there are currently 14 playable races. Each of these is divided into two groups based on continents. In the U.S., the largest number of players are human. In the EU, however, the top three are the Blood Elves, Gnomes, and Orcs. The world-famous Blood Elves were recently added to the game, and are set to join the Alliance in World of Warcraft 2016.
Level cap
When you hit level cap, game play transitions from the ‘leveling’ phase to the ‘end-game’ phase. The end-game represents the culmination of your leveling process, and offers deeper challenges for your character. The majority of your gameplay prior to the level cap revolved around gaining new skills and experience. The end-game marks a polished ‘final destination’ for you. Once you reach level 80, you can focus on advancing in the game, or you can simply keep playing.
In the latest expansion, Warlords of Draenor, the Level Cap was increased to 100, adding new animations and facial expressions. Level cap in the game has never been higher. The new version also adds a raid difficulty and allows you to customize your garrison. This way, players can have the best experience and build the best character possible. And with the Warlords of Draenor, you can finally unlock the “Everquest” experience and become the best player in the game.
