Instead of a set questline, you will wander in the different zones in the order of your choice, and will have to complete a quest in each one by doing various activities: World Quests, dungeons, killing rares etc You will be able to select your covenant right away, meaning you'll have its abilities, and that you'll be able to start earning reputation, anima and renown earlier. Just remember that once you're in, you cannot go out ! On the other hand you can opt in Threads of fate at any point during your regular leveling. If you do so, you won't be able to "come back" on that decision, and will have to stick to it until you reach level 60, as it will automatically completes the storyline for you. Then, on any other character that reaches Oribos after the introduction questline in the Maw you will be offered the choice to either level up from 50 to 60 normally (run the questline in order, and at the end pick your covenant) or you can chose Threads of Fate: To unlock this, you will need to have one character on your account that has unlocked World Quests. Now onto Threads of Fate ! This new system implemented in Shadowlands goes in pair with the whole "leveling rework" that has happened, meant to make the leveling experience smoother and nicer overall.
Our developpers are now working on the next chapters, and you can expect a release every few weeks. Keep in mind that some are longer than others, resulting in variations of release delay. It's important for us to keep the equity between covenants by enabling chapters accross all 4 of them at the same time. NB: To unlock this chapter you need to finish the first 2, and to be renown 5. On top of that, we've also enabled the 3rd Covenant campaign chapter on all 4 covenants ! This one is pretty important as completing it will allow you to bind your soul to another NPC, granting you another soulbind tree with new perks ! On top of that each Covenant will have its load of additional rewards, which you can read about here: here (you can then read about each covenant specifically to see all chapter-related rewards) Though thanks to the Renown catchup mechanic we implemented recently you shouldn't find it tedious to get back on track. We're still in 9.0 behavior though, meaning progress isn't shared among covenants: if you join a new one, you will have to start as if it were your first covenant on this character. All of the progress you've made on past covenants will be kept, meaning that if you ever feel like rejoigning a past one, you will be able to resume where you left of (that includes Renown, Anima, Campaign chapters and followers). Simply head to the covenant's representative on Oribos and talk to him to instantly enter this new family. Of course, this isn't supposed to be the case and you can now freely change your mind without even needing to wait, as we removed the 1 week sentence that was here on retail. Let's start by the later: as you now know, chosing your covenant is a pretty important decision in Shadowlands considering everything that it implies, and up until today this choice was set in stone. Two things most of you have been requesting have just been enabled on Oribos today Thursday January 27th: Threads of Fate & Covenant Swap !
