Looking at the catch-up gear coming to WoW in patch 9.1, how you’ll get it, and how you’ll update it. Korthian armaments will come from outdoor gameplay in Korthia in 9.1, and you can purchase a bind on account version for a random slot in exchange for 1000 Stygia per piece. Korthian gear starts at item level 200, and can be upgraded with the Archivists Codex faction and Cataloged Research all the way to a cap of 233, which is higher than the item level of the normal Sanctum of Domination raid. Upgrading a full set of Korthian 9.1 catchup gear will take a lot of gameplay and Cataloged Research (which is also used for buying sockets and conduit item level upgrades) so it’s not going to outpace raid gear right away. World of Warcraft Shadowlands patch 9.1 does not have a release date yet but is estimated to come out this summer.

best loot for m+ should come from m+
Really blizzard? You expect people to farm for random loot boxes with maybe a piece of gear in them they need? Fuck off. This expansion is a joke.
Cool guess I'll wait til the next catch up gear and hope that one has no fucking RNG
I really can't stand all of this crap. I just want to play the game.
Lol no point to even do m+. M15 gets 210 woth great vault 226….
Cool, I didn't have to play to keep up
sounds like an inclusive and flexible system to me!
It's really shitty that the token gives you a random item. So if you want to gear out an alt with that, you will probably need to spend like 4 times the stygia you would need for specific tokens. Really annoying
Oh i like this
Unrelated to this video, but as a content creator, how do you feel about YouTube adding an option to clip videos? I feel like I definitely would not want anyone and everyone to be able to take snippets of my videos and possibly reupload them without permission or oversight.
so grind Stygia. copy that
Thank you Hazel!
Who could have predicted that rng would be such a thing again? 😛
Thank you for your videos just love it
I am so tried of farming.
What appearance does this catch-up gear use? I don't really need it on my main but if it has a cool look i might buy it
Thanks hazel, vey comprehensive. It's great that they added another option for people to gear up with. And such an involved one at that. Seems like even if you don't do M+ or raiding, you can sink your teeth into this and be happy with the outcome (hopefully).
I hate the maw and torghast, equally.
As an extremely casual player with very limited play time I'm stoked that there's a track to get a set of decent ilvl gear from strictly solo play.
Me salivating because i just came back to WoW and am only ilvl 198 lmao
It sounds like some of these new additions are once again designed to just waste our time unnecessarily. The BoA token just turns into ANY random gear? The new currency isn't looted you have to convert a drop into it? You have to go INTO Torghast to get the BoA soul ash token?
Yeah none of it is gamebreaking but it's getting to be real annoying
Thank you for this! Very informative!
Thank you for infornation
I have a feeling of a same thing when i start to grind Nazjatar&Mechagon (pearls and spare parts stuffs) .
That would be my luck, alt forever getting bracers
sorry, when you say endgame are you just referring to max level? or is this the actual final patch for shadowlands?
Any idea when 9.1 coming
Thanks for the video, beautiful girl
wow dropped the ball on weapons and armor in this game hence why no one wants to play this damn game now , not everyone wants to run with a group lets face it the game sucks now way too damn much rep grind and it took wayyyyyyy too damn long just to fly not worth wasting your time on
Started shadowlands 5 days ago but this kills my motivation instantly
Of course you have to actually farm stygia, which no one actually wants to do.
Man at the moment I'm so deep in Final Fantasy XIV that I feel like WoW has nothing exciting for me except the story. Avoiding spoilers like the plague just so I have something to come back for in 9.1
So…. Those with those random armaments we'll probably be facing the "I have better/same gear for that slot already" problem. Sounds like a waste of currency.
Okay, so. Summarising / getting it clear in my head: Stygia on mains will get you some 200 peices for alts. But it's not efficent to fully gear an alt with it.
I think this is good: I can spend excess stygia, but I'm don't feel pressured to farm on my main to play an alt.
(This was often a problem in previous iterations, I want to play alts to keep things fresh, but often it was too efficient to gear an alt by farming on your main.)
The rest of the peices will just drop from doing stuff in Korthia.
And for the characters you know you won't mythic plus / raid with, you can focus on unlocking and buying upgrades for that gear.
On characters that will do that, you wont have to grind as much, and can save your research for sockets and other small upgrades.
Yo dog, we heard you hate the maw. So made 9.1 all about the maw.
To be honest, to get alts to 200ilvl I rather keep doing campaign, then upgrade all that gear to 197. I HATE the maw and refuse to get Stygia
Question: Hi Hazel, Thank you for this. This sounds great for solo, time-constrained players like me. Only having several hours a week, when trying to do outdoor catch up like covenant callings. Can this activity be stacked up with Korthia outdoor content?
0:56 They increased covenant levels?! Yeah… no.
Systemlands sucks
Awesome news Hazel.. Hazel for Prime Minister of Canada..
Wow cool! I can't wait to waste a currency I spend all day farming to get an rng piece of loot for a slot I don't need. Thanks Blizzard!
Great, blizzard make the new gear BoA then stabs the player in the back by making it random what piece you get, here's to spending 1000's and 1000's to get a full set for just your main let alone all your alts. FFS blizzard just make them slot specific and put weapon and shield/ off hand items there too. At least in bfa I could grind weapons and specific armor pieces if the daily quests were lucky.
This system sounds terrible. Stop with the RNG and the locking of rewards behind renown level.
