wow You Can Wear Two Legendaries At Once in Patch 9.2

[Staff 1,489]

We'll be able to equip two legendaries simultaneously in Patch 9.2.

When Shadowlands launched, Blizzard didn't rule out the possibility of allowing players to wear more legendaries later on in the expansion.

In an interview with BBS, the developers confirmed we'll be able to wear two legendaries at the same time in Eternity's End (Patch 9.2), but with certain restrictions. 

The first legendary must be a Covenant Legendary Power, and the second one different power of your choice.

Oh wow 2 Legendarinos

Hiding the fact that covenants suck behind a "look how many players are using covenant legendaries, its a great feature" fix for the stock market, I see.

Well, wearing two legendaries - that makes Sense from a reusable code perspective, Legion could do that when one had advanced the Class Hall Research far enough, so it's just a special affix and a flag somewhere.

Which leads to /facepalm for the next part - IF they declare that the first one has to be in a special type, THEN they're gonna have to CHANGE that code instead of effectively reuse.

Whether it can be efficiently reused is a problem for devs who are still there.   I am concerned that some elements are getting love or no-love based on whether the only dev who knows a given blob of code is interested in making a thing related to it, really happen.

Also I bust my hours-in-game for Rep to get a legendary as it is.

Covenant-only... which means, say, NF Havoc will be stuck with a subpar AoE leggo, all while Venthyr boomkins will run around with Hysteria and can pick another one to suit the content.

Okay, I do understand some combos were to be retardedly powerful, but this doesn't look like a way to balance it.

so one good leggo and one crappy lego ?

We have no idea what the profession changes are for 9.2, nor what tuning is going to be done to the existing legendary powers, or if any new legendary powers are being added, and if so whether they are shared or covenant based. So boohooing is a bit inane at this point, at least until the first patch notes drop.

This still won't save Shadowlands as one of the worst xpacs...

Nah, I think they can make it like the legendary trinket from Argus raid, so still some reusable old code. 😄

The xpac was both a victim of circumstance and circumspect behavior...that we all knew had been happening all along in every workplace. Did ya enjoy "Madmen"? Yeah...that kind of behavior is the pit in the center of this bitter fruit.

 

The idea that people haven't seen harassment in their own workplace or even heard their grandmother/mom/sister/aunt/wife...and the entire LGBQT community speak on this seems weird to me. 

 

And oh yeah, there was this heightened need for our video games to save us from the ennui of lockdowns and fear during the worst of the pandemic. The game simply didn't live up to our expectations...and need for safety and diversion.  Yeah, Shadowlands was the worst. In game friends passed away to Covid and for other reasons, like not being able to access needed care due to ICUs collapsing under pressure. The worst part of the xpac was dealing with the reality of our lives, losses, and stress during a GD pandemic. Terrible memories attached to a terrible time. Yes, I want to move on. 

 

I'm ready for this xpac to be done and to move on and make new memories. We can best respect those we lost by forging a fun, new beginning just like they would have wanted us to do.
