F.A.Q.
Q: Will there be a Beta prior to launch?
A: No.
Q: What is the unlock cadence?
A: The unlock cadence is an expansion every 3 months.
Q: Could we change the expansion rollout to four months instead of three?
A: No.
Q: Will there be any itemization changes be made or will it be just like Varsoon?
A: Itemization is not being updated for Wuoshi with the exception of restricting some out-of-era items such as items from Darkpaw Dugout, the removal of Hunter’s Missions, and the removal of the Lore Token Merchant.
We will be adjusting the itemization with Siren's Grotto, Cobalt Scar and Sleeper's Tomb zones for Chains of Eternity Mid-content.
Q: Do we have unlocked or higher stat caps for things like DPS modifier?
A: There are no stat cap changes for Wuoshi.
Q: Will the zone reset perk work here so we can double up on loot chances?
A: The Champion’s Zone Lockout Reset perk item is available and functional on Timelocked Servers.
Q: Will we see any adjustments to Guild levels/perks?
A: There are no changes planned for Perks of Guild levels for Wuoshi.
Q: Will guild buffs be turned off?
A: The Guild buff ability does not grant any bonuses on Timelocked servers.
Q: Will all classes and races be out at the start?
A: All Classes and races that were available at the launch of Echoes of Faywder will be available. Aerakyn and the Freeblood will also be available at launch after purchase. Other classes will unlock with the corresponding expansions.
Q: When does Beastlord come out?
A: When Age of Discovery is unlocked.
Q: Will Vah Shir be available as well for premium races?
A: No.
Q: Will familiars have stats and be available on the server?
A: Familiars will not have stats but will be available as fluff pets.
Q: Will mounts have stats?
A: Yes. They have stats that scale to level, which means some mounts do not get stats at the max level of the server.
Q: Is there going to be any level locking?
A: There will not be any level locking on Wuoshi, but there are level caps, as dictated by the expansions as they unlock.
Q: Any plans to update AA's/abilities?
A: No.
Q: Will Timewarp be made mage only as it was originally spell double cast?
A: No.
Q: Will the server launch with the Echoes of Faydwer mid-content? Things like Unrest, Shard of Fear, Avatars, Echoes of Faydwer Hunters Missions?
A: Hunters Rewards are going away; past complaints on TLE servers have been that this content is too easy. It was decided that the Hunters rewards contribute to trivialization of content and are being removed for Wuoshi.
Mid Content will be the same as all previous mid-content; we won't be changing anything.
Q: Will Overseer quests be in?
A: Yes.
Q: Will Heritage Crates be available on Wuoshi?
A: Heritage Crates will not be available for purchase on TLE servers.
Q: Will the 500 DBC claim for 10 heritage boxes be gone? Will overseers daily heritage crate be gone? If so will either be replaced?
A: Heritage hunt and the DBC heritage box claims will not show up on TLEs. We are not replacing them.
Q: Is it possible to get double loot on this TLE if we are doing 3 month expansions?
A: Double Loot Weekends (Saturday from 12:01 a.m. through Sunday at 11:59 p.m. PT)
- All raid bosses will have their loot doubled.
- The final boss for any instanced dungeon will have their loot doubled.
- This does not apply to quest loot, or other loot not mentioned above.
Q: Is there any consideration for double loot or increased loot % for raid instances, or reducing lockout timers?
A: See above response.
Q: Is there any consideration for replacing hunters rewards with different items that do not trivialize content, such as providing raid gear as rewards instead, or some other fashion of engagement to keep folks logging in to run heroic content? (i.e. some other type of daily quest with relevant rewards?)
A: Hunters Missions have been removed from Wuoshi and there is no plan to replace them.
Q: Will Avatars be part of the release, and will they be instanced like they were on Varsoon?
A: There will be Avatars, but they will not be instanced; they will be Contested.
Q: How many Avatars are coming out? Are they not coming out in The Shadow Odyssey?
A: Only Echoes of Faydwer and Rise of Kunark Avatars will be available in their corresponding expansions.
Q: Will there be the original suburbs in Wuoshi even though it starts in Echoes of Faydwer?
A: It will be the same as it currently works on Varsoon.
Q: Will there be access to veteran awards in claim?
A: No, Veteran’s Rewards are not available on TLE or Origins Servers.
Q: On Varsoon and Kaladim, they had to do the Mark of Awakening to progress through Deathtoll. Can it be changed back to how it was originally, so you only need the Flame Shield from the Deathtoll access quest?
A: There are no plans to change this.
Q: Will content past Age of Discovery be considered "live content" and not receive updates?
A: Unless there are bugs that need to be addressed, then yes, it’s live content.
Q: Will crafting start at 70 along with adventure level?

A: The Lore Token Merchant Ronald Gleneed is no longer present on Timelocked servers.
Q: Will Berserkers receive a balance pass on Blood rage changing it to a .2-.5% Heal or will it upgrade with levels rather than staying at 40ish the entire time?
A: No plans for any individual class balance changes for the TLE. These affect everything that is live.
