WoW: New Ve'nari resource in patch 9.1 - Stygia is not worth hoarding

November 15, 2021

The wowhead team interviewed Principal Game Designer Jeremy Feasel and Technical Director Frank Kowalkowski of WoW during BlizzConline. From these interviews we gained a lot of new information about the future of WoW Shadowlands. We've summarized the most important statements for you below. For the full interview visit wowhead.com.

• 9.1 PTR starts shortly after release of patch 9.0.5 Patch 9.0.5 will be released in March
• No tier sets in 9.1 raid, but still planned for Shadowlands
• No plans for second portable Legendary but some plans for Legendary system
• No concrete plans to fix faction imbalance
• No further character customization planned for Shadowlands
• Korthia gets Pact assaults similar to Legion assaults
• Ve'nari gets a new resource that we use to buy items from her - Stygia is a Season 1 resource that you can spend without concern
• Ve'nari sells new media, more gadgets for the maw & more for the new resource
• Possible Ve'nari catch-up system planned
• Riding in the maw even without special maw mounts, but no flying
• On Korthia we learn who the first true ones are
• Pact changes will be easier and even more encouraged in patch 9.1
• Pact stories will overlap more, so that the Venthyr, for example, can also see what's going on with the Kyrians.
• The midway dungeon will get a hard mode
• Even though the M+ achievement for Valor upgrades is account-wide, it's not sure yet if Twinks will be able to just upgrade items or if they'll have to complete the +5, +10, and +15 achievements first as well.
• In the future, there will be more incentives to play Mythic-Plus beyond level 15.
• More medium slots will be added to the Soul Covenant talent tree.
• There will be a new type of Medium
