After a long wait, WoW players can finally access the Arsenal again. There are also a few new features.
With the launch of the “Legion” expansion, Blizzard began radically redesigning the website for World of Warcraft. Once the basic framework was established – including news, forums, and account management – it became clear that many features were still not implemented. After almost half a year, Blizzard has finally reactivated the Arsenal and updated it to the latest standards.
The Arsenal lists all characters from World of Warcraft, as long as they have been active at least once in the last few months and have reached level 10. In addition to the character’s current equipment, many other pieces of information can also be obtained there. What achievements has a player already completed, and when did they earn them? Which mounts are in their collection? Which raid bosses have they defeated, and at what difficulty level?
Especially raid guilds looking to recruit new players can quickly get an overview of a player’s “career” and current status.
However, there is also criticism of the Arsenal. Many players complain in the comments that there is no way to view the chosen PvP talents of a character, making it harder to understand the strategies of rivals and idols.
Some other players are dissatisfied that they cannot disable the Arsenal for their characters. They do not want others to see when they completed certain achievements and at what times they played, and they refer to this as the “glass player” phenomenon.
Do you use the Arsenal, or was it one of the features you didn’t really miss?
With Vol’jin, by the way, there is still more to come – his legacy has more space for story.
