Which Shadowlands covenant should you choose based on the World of Warcraft Shadowlands Lore? WoW Shadowlands lore is deeply tied into the Shadowlands Covenant system but with WoW Slands so close to release, which WoW Covenant is the best?

Dude ty so much! Been craving a vid on this topic
Isn't everyone going to choose based on best simmed DPS?
Will you be covering the latest Steve Danuser interview here?
I feel like I want to choose based on lore , cos personally for me being a death Knight it would be really weird for me to choose bastion ☺️☺️ plus I'm really hoping I can join Sylvanus again in what ever she is planning.
Is video dark for everyone or is it just me, great video btw
Imagine my surprise and excitement when I see a new Accolonn video posted only 3 minutes before I got on YT for the day!
As a Sylvanas Loyalist, I am waiting for the Jailer covenant. The other 4 are all a bunch of lunatics anyway.
EDIT:
You forgot to mention an extremely important thing ( the most important of all actually ). You can soulshape into an UNICORN as a Night Fae! I don't see the competition to that…
Necrolords =Necromongers
I don't know if Revendreth would be libertarian. Yes, your own freedom is important to libertarianism, but so is respecting other's freedoms. Hurting others to benefit yourself is not libertarian.
Your room is getting darker and darker mate. Soon your videos will be just a black screen at this rate
Steph you gotta adjust the lighting my guy. This was a super awesome vid though. I gotta give it up to ya! A+
@accolonn – Please get a better light source. We can hardly see ya.

If you would love to live in north korea, then Bastion is for you.
I really liked the video, finally something that is not DPS led, but mainly because I personally will also go after the story etc., even if I currently have a favorite that does not match the latest class guides, I will be surprised.
Thanks for the video and your great work, you really stand out from all the other screamers out there and even though we don't always agree, I really like your content. Thumbs up.
This is exactly why you have alts in WoW, so you can get the whole story instead of just parts of it. At least that's what I'm planning on doing.
It looks like i'm gonna be stuck working for those damned winged smurfs. Sadly the Kyrian covenant offers the best powers for the classes i play. Story wise i like the necrolords and maldraxxus campaign the best out of everything i have seen. All the other covenants and zones can piss right off lol
Bastion – shady cops maintaining order in a rough precinct
Maldraxxus – soldiers discovering war has followed them home
Ardenweald – hungry hungry hippies have run out of munchies
Revendreth – he who controls the spi…anima controls the univ…er…Shadowlands
Is it too cliche to note that all of them have skeletons in their closets?
Be interesting if we ultimately end up having to right each of their paths as part of the continued ascension of the players and NPCs to eventually becoming the balancing force for cosmological forces that otherwise don't care about the individual fates of mortals. Would be a nice template for how players might serve as a balance to a particular pairing of cosmological forces.
The players becoming the bridge for all these various forces are required to work through should they desire to act in reality.
I'm new to listening to you Mr. Accalon. 1 do you have Facebook? 2 do you do videos of lore from the Wow books?
Thanks so much for the info! Super excited for SL and exploring the covenants!
my dude you don't know what libertarian is. Stop using the American definitions for your political blah blah.
I'm pretty high – but I like to imagine Maldraxxus is carved from the corpse of a First One and his flesh constantly births the bone and flesh golems.
I'm more interested in the lore and aesthetic of how a Covenant fits the theme of the classes I play, than what they have to offer in terms of power, because I don't play hardcore anymore. I main a Warlock, and I'm torn between Venthyr and Necrolords. I love the whole Undead/Scourge theme of Maldraxxus, but I also love the Gothic castles and architecture of Revendreth.
The covenants story is interesting. They are an awesome implementation to the game… but their class abilities and their limitation are a major threat to the game. Still can't wait for the launch day though!
As a Havoc DH I should either go to Kyrians (for Mythic) or Venthyr (for raids). Screw Bastion… I still have to chose between Venthyr and Necrolords.
At the time I Watched this it was three Days away.
Let me tell you something. I quit the game in legion when a Dk would one-shot me with his artifact weapon, and when a DH could solo a mythic keystone. Came back for Bfa, I quit the game when I saw that you can get one-shot by corruption in pvp or kill urself accidentally while trying to up a fckn keystone, when the heart of azeroth is actually an overpower piece of shit that gives you a player ability to one-shot someone. Now in prepatch, Btw what a nasty prepatch, rushed and just not well designed for a pay to play game. And I will tell you this, covenants, are the same cancer that's plaguing every game that has an unbalanceable system. I don't wanna go into an arena, and have a Dk use door of shadows to kill me anyway besides all the slows and stuns he has. I don't wanna be kicked out of a keystone because I'm running necrolords instead of kirian as a healer. I don't wanna be tied to a fckng system that basicly sets who I am as a player regardless of my skill or my playstyle. And this time will be the last time I quit this game if I ever see a motherfucker tell me "Discipline priest necrolords? Sorry bro, not optimal, out." "Discipline with necrolords Río score 15 times? U just got carried. Out." I'm sorry, I just don't wanna get blasted by a fckng paladin with a kirian ability that instakils me with my CDs on. Lore is irrelevant, players are irrelevant. The story is the main character, you are all secondary. It has been like this since Legion. You are all simping for Sylvanas. This might just be another feminist atemtp to dominate male spaces. Sylvanas is the spotlight of the expansion and we are nothing. She clearly said it back then. There is a fckng reason why devs leave Blizzard. And to be honest I sometimes wish I never played wow, I miss Wotkl so fxkng much, playing with my friends and enjoying wiping, and exploring, and everything else. Those memories is the only reason I am going to TRY shadowlands. Anyway its just my personal view of the reality I think a vast majority are in.
I plan on having at least one character go through each one, of course, my only question is "What is the best order from start to finish, Lore wise, in which to do them to get the whole story (as it will be at launch)?
Sadly i had to go with my mains in Covenant waht makes no sens for the story bec its BIS for PVE / PVP D:
Regarding the NIght Fae: Service/self sacrifice and individuality are not mutually exclusive. It seems to mean the main difference philosophically is that the Night Fae and the Kyrians is that the former make the choice to serve while the Kyrians do so by their nature/calling/etc, not by their own choice. A lot of us who believe in service and in helping others are also strongly individualistic and supportive of the individual.
Ardenweald is my main's choice, then Maldraxxus for my hunter, Revendreth for my shadow priest
So in Ardenweald, I’m curious why the Eternal One is named the Winter Queen. I wonder if later it’ll be explained. I lean toward trying out Maldraxxus.
i want to join the jailer, i too do not want to be the plaything of cosmic beings lol.
Missed the past few sunday's w/ u guys, but this video was really awesome. Top tier content that has helped me make my choice! you rock!
