PvP players receive a special incentive in WoW: Battle for Azeroth. Regular loot chests that you have to fight for!
With the upcoming expansion World of Warcraft: Battle for Azeroth, a lot will change in Azeroth. One of the biggest changes is the War Mode, where players can choose in advance whether they want to land only with other PvP players in a phase. Those who decide to do so can also fight for completely new rewards. Flying ships regularly drop loot chests!
Drop brings personal loot. These “Air Drops” appear in all new areas and are announced by a flying ship in the sky. Once the drop has been made, players from both Horde and Alliance can try to claim the chest for their faction. This takes time and allows the opposing faction to intervene and stop it. Once a faction has secured victory, all members of the faction can loot the chest for a few moments and will be rewarded with a personal equipment item.
Chests as the “new” Gurubashi Arena. The system is modeled after the Gurubashi Arena in the Stranglethorn Vale. There, a chest also appears at regular intervals, which present players can fight over. However, only one person receives the appropriate reward from the chest.
In general, the chests offer a good reason for mass battles that will attract all players. This momentarily dissolves the normal “Open World” PvP action and bundles it into a central point.
The War Mode of Battle for Azeroth has even more changes in store. A bounty will be placed on particularly evil players.
What do you think of these Air Drops? A cool opportunity for further PvP incentives? Or does it just distort the open-world PvP experience?
We have listed everything else that changes with Battle for Azeroth in detail in this post.
