The 6 new races from WoW: Battle for Azeroth each receive a very special equipment set: Heritage Armor.
The next expansion for World of Warcraft, Battle for Azeroth, has been in development for some time. At BlizzCon 2017, there was plenty of information about the next chapter of Azeroth. One of the biggest changes will be the implementation of six new races. Three for the Horde (Highmountain Tauren, Nightborne, Zandalari Trolls) and three for the Alliance (Void Elves, Lightforged Draenei, Dark Iron Dwarves).
These “allied races” must first be unlocked by playing through the story with a main character so that players can subsequently create characters of that species.
Heritage Armor is a special leveling incentive
As a special incentive for leveling such a character, there is an exclusive, cosmetic armor set. This Heritage Armor is a special set of equipment that reflects the traditions of these races. For the Nightborne, these are the typical blue-purple armors with feathers, while the Zandalari have armor pieces that strongly resemble those of the Inca or Maya.
But how do you get this Heritage Armor?
To unlock the Heritage Armor, you must level a character of the allied races from level 20 (the starting level) to 110.
At BlizzCon, it sounded like you would have to manually level the character for this – a simple race change or character boost would be excluded.
However, the equipment can only be transmogged by the corresponding characters. So you cannot dress a dwarf in the armor of a Void Elf. Only a Void Elf can wear the armor of the Void Elves.
Are you excited about the allied races and the Heritage Armor? Or is this topic completely uninteresting to you?
What do you think about the possible content separation between Horde and Alliance?
