7.2.5 Legendary Item Upgrade Clarification

Recommended Posts

21777-silence-penalty-coming-to-wow.jpg

Build 24218 added new emissary caches, so it's safe to assume that you shouldn't be stockpiling 7.2 caches in false hope of seeing 7.2.5 Legendary items drop from them after the patch's live.

Here's a list of all caches that will drop new 7.2.5 Legendary items. 7.2.5 Legendary items will start dropping at item level 940 on patch day and only new caches earned after the Tomb opens have the chance to reward an item level 970 Legendary.

Old caches have different IDs and loot options, e.g. Valarjar StrongboxValarjar Strongbox vs Valarjar StrongboxValarjar Strongbox.

After the Tomb's live and you own at least one Legendary item, you will find a new quest in Dalaran to get Stabilized Titan EssenceStabilized Titan Essence and upgrade existing Legendary items from 940 to 970. 

The quest involves collecting 50 Writhing EssenceWrithing Essences that will likely drop from

  • Tomb of Sargeras Raid Bosses
  • Weekly Mythic Keystone Cache
  • Emissary Bags
  • PvP Weekly Quests

7.2.5 Legendary items won't drop from Relinquished tokens.

They've done a very good job, imo, of keeping older content at least somewhat relevant.

Agree. I finally have concordance and planned on taking it easy, when it comes to world quests, but am going to have to complete emissaries to get my legos upgraded now. Same old grindstone.

You don't get something for nothing in the real world, why should you in Azeroth. If you have that much of an issue with it, don't do it!

It's okay that we have to do something 4 it. Otherwise there would be an ilvl-boost instantly, this would not be incentive at all.

I don't mind having to upgrade one or two. But I have 14 across my characters at the moment, 10 on the main two characters I play, all to be upgraded... since they upped the drop rate of legends, it's kind of made it an issue... and devaluing them further in my eyes

Surely you don't have to upgrade every legendary immediately? As far as I'm aware, almost every spec has BiS legendaries, so you can always focus on them first?

Even with different legendaries being used for different fights, you'll still likely use 1 constantly and swap another. It's also forcing you to make choices based on what you feel will perform best etc.

Given "Legionfall RecompenseLegionfall Recompense // Legionfall ChestLegionfall Chest" are on the list for legos I hope they are on the list for the upgrade questline so  I plan on having 1500 Legionfall War Supplies 'stashed' ready for the quest.

1000 in bags, and 500 in a completed mission on the soon to be finished CC (US).

Those + hopefully the M+ cache which I'll open after getting the quest should get me damn close to 50 on day 1.

You're far better prepared than I am :p

Good luck with opening everything!

      We've all seen the giant Hallowfall crystal and just how great it looks, but as it turns out, the light emanating from it actually changes in a sort of strange day/night cycle, and we get a really awesome transition into Void light animation! 
      First off we can see a snippet of the change in Blizzard's official short preview of the zone:
      And then there's this extended look at the switch, showcasing just how impressive the animations are, by PreachGaming's Chunkeyninja:
      And here's a slightly better look at the Void to Light transition, courtesy of Kexman:
      The exact timing on the cycle isn't 100% clear, but MrGM noted how it works on the Alpha right now, with a 3 hour cycle, as the Void part remains active for 30 minutes:

      Hopefully we'll also get some lore to go with the transition, as the light into void thing is pretty thematically interesting, as well as being really visually impressive.
