The Earthen Allied Race Intro Preview

Recommended Posts

Learn more about the Earthen Allied Race intro!

I played through the Earthen Allied Race intro on the Beta and wanted to share some highlights with you.

Your Earthen character starts at Level 10 in the Halls of Awakening. Essentially, your character wakes up from stasis and completes a few basic quests to get teleported to Stormwind and Orgrimmar. If you were hoping for an epic Demon Hunter-style intro, you might be a bit disappointed. This intro is brief, taking about four minutes to complete. However, its brevity can be a good thing, depending on your preference.

At the start, there's a cutscene, but in the Beta, it's currently just text.

The gist: Your character awakens from stasis before Dawn and Foreman Uzjax.

This is the area where you'll be completing the Earthen intro. It's called the Halls of Awakening.

For the first quest you must complete the first stage of the Awakening Protocol, by clicking on various machines in the room.

The Awakening Protocol consists of a Diagnostics Scan, Cognitive Scan, and Anomaly Scan.

When completing the Anomaly Scan, you'll learn that you're an anomaly machine causing the systems to overdrive.

You must click on the Inner Song Inner Song action button to break free from the chains.

Once you complete the first quest you will receive the Azerite Surge Azerite Surge racial and you'll get to another room where you must complete the Analyzing Sequence in the Analysis Interface.

There are three consoles that you must interact with and select whatever options you'd like. The dialogue options seemed pretty random.

Anyway, once you complete that, you'll reach another room where you have to spar 6 Awakened Earthen.

In the final room, you must defeat the Phalanx of Authorization.

When you hand it the quest, you will get the Awakened Tabard Awakened Tabard.

When you're done, you will use a portal to your faction city and end up at the embassy.

Here, you can talk to Chromie Time to pick your desired expansion for leveling. Dragonflight is the default leveling experience in The War Within.

Wow this is giga slim lol. I think the dark irons have more intro than this.

None of the other allied races have anything like this, they're just "alright, here's our history now go see Chromie in Orgrimmar or Stormwind". This is vastly different

I think you meant their recruitment scenario. All allied races have same short intros, they don't have actual starting zones with quests.

Maybe I'm thinking of that. I just remember doing quests and leaving Blackrock Depths and going back a few times.

I seem to recall the Lightforged Draenei go through an exploratory series including some fight scenes and rescuing someone from their misadventure.  Though it might address what they'd been through before they were Infused Into Lightforged status, it's still interesting.

Whan an "allied race" (sic.  should be "unlocked race", only half of them would be Alliance) gets made as a death knight, you get an even shorter intro sequence as you're uplifted out of Death by the Four Horsemen and the contemporary Lich King.

You're thinking the recruitment scenario, yeah most allied races have one but none of them have a starting experience like what was shown here.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
