The Instance: World of Warcraft Podcast
The Instance: Welcome back, Champion

But down below it says your war band has already done this one.

And the idea is, well, wait, if I was only doing it for Transmog, that's already done. If I'm doing it for rep reasons, that's done. Like, I don't need to do it. And so I won't, or I will because it's fun, or some other reason that you wanted to do it or whatever. But giving me that choice, I mean, that's a small thing, but I really like that. Like, I should be way more excited about it.

Yeah, that's the thing. People who don't do alts, this is a huge gesture. This is saying to you, hey, try some new stuff. And that's really what pushed me to get the lock ready to hurry up and get some of these other characters because I think I am going to be more involved that way.

Not just in like, well, one has professions and he's making bags for everybody or this guy's cooking for everybody or whatever. Those are all still key and important and whatever, but having it feel more like these characters who I inhabit when I'm playing them are all on the same goal sheet. that's meaningful, right?

And then we're sharing stuff like bank stuff and we're sharing rep grind doesn't feel as grindy when all your dudes have it, you know? And then Transmog alone is a massive thing for me. I love the Transmog system in this game. And now everybody gets everything.

I mean, not necessarily, can't necessarily wear everything from everyone, but I've got, if I find a piece of mail out somewhere and I wear plate, If I get it, it gets thrown into the bucket. And anytime I have a male wearing character that wants to go out there and change and have that look that I unlocked with a whole different character, they can. It's all in there. I love that.

Right. Yeah, I think it's a really smart thing to do. I think it's a long time coming. A lot of these features, I just sort of go, could have really used this one about 12 years back. Yeah, no kidding. But I can't get wound up in that or else there's a million things Blizzard should do and maybe they will eventually do. Like, I wouldn't be surprised if one day...

Stuff they've been asking for since vanilla suddenly shows up. That's just the way these projects go. If it's the right time, you do it. If it makes sense, you do it. You throw the resources behind it and you do it. And I'm excited for them to do it. What else is there to mention about that? Let's talk about the Earthen, the new race.

There's so many things. We're just going to touch on a few of these. But this is the new playable race with the War Within, the Earthen.
