Well well as we all know today is a special day for Eternal-WoW, the new event system is now being implemented, and yes... we weren't joking "Chuck Norris" did round-house the trinkets. Guess he didn't like the idea of him being a raid boss...

Anyways, we all know there has been a bit of confusion and misunderstanding about which trinket(s) specific players will be receiving, but this post should clarify everything.

Remember to delete your cache before entering into Redemption and Eternal.

If you obtained the trinkets from using shards of Eternal Victory

• Your previous "Essence" trinkets will be remain as " Essence of the 'x' ", but with reduced stats. The stats have been reduced by half and the threat generation/reduction has been removed.

If you obtained the trinkets from the 2010 Halloween Event

• Your previous "Essence" trinkets will be changed to " Core of the 'x' ". The trinkets are similar to the reduced Essence trinkets but are approximately 12% greater in stats; compared to the essence trinkets.
  
• If you somehow still have the Essence of Soul and the previous Essence of Spectre, a quest can be found on the vendor, where you will be able to exchange your 2010 trinkets for one of the new "Core" trinkets. This quest will be open on the 15th or 16th for those who still have the 2010 trinkets.

If you had donated for the trinket

• Donors will have the option to have their 35 VIP points reaquired to use on other items , or to receive 40 of the new currency points.
  
• They will need to provide the proof (easily found on the transaction log for VIP), or they can keep the current trinket. If the trinket was transferred through an item transfer you will need to provide the information on which character the trinket was obtained on and who it was moved to. Please make a ticket requesting for a Senior GM or Admin, however due to the limited amount of staff who are able to rectify this issue compared to the amount of players this process may take several hours.
  
• To make this go all smooth as possible please using the following example ticket if this situation does apply to you. Please only make one ticket per an account as we will rectify all trinkets for said account at the same time.
  
  Hello.
  
  I have donated for the previous event trinkets. I would like to require my VIP/40 new currency tokens. The trinket was obtained on (Insert your character name here). (State other pending issue with the trinkets such as an item transfer if applicable).
  
  My account name is _________
  

As all of this is being rectified please be patient, as we do have a limited amount of staff who are capable to do this. It may take sometime, but everything will be taken care of.

So how does the new currency work?

Well it has been stated that the event will no longer be using the Eternal Shards of victory. You eternal shards of victory will be removed and an emblem of eternal victory onto your character. The new currency can be found in your currency tab similar to Emblem of Frost and others. (Yay for 1 free bag slot!). As you complete the dailies, weeklies and attend GM events you will earn currency to obtain items from the vendor.

25-man ICC Gunship loot is 100 Emblems of Eternal Victory
10-man ICC Gunship loot is 80 Emblems Eternal Victory

We hope you all are able to enjoy the new system, as this brings a new a interesting style of play to both Redemption and Eternal.

Never Stop Playing!

Thanks for these changes though

[alanmza01]

[Zorras]

Justice, I have the Essence of Spectre 2010 version, What about if i do not want to change it for the newer version?

[Kymandu]

It will magically disintegrate in your bags.

Damn... Then I will have to change it.
Understood, sir.

[funkmode2]

thx justice

Since you added custom quests givers to get gear, add one to get shadowmourne reward. Cant you do the same with dreamwalker? add an npc that gives loot when you'd killed the boss?

[Snip3d2]

After testing out the new event system, me and my whole guild and more then half the people in world chat came to a conclusion that these are not worth doing. Huge waste of time for so little emblems. I hope you guys polish this system.

[Andrewortola]

Well checking the new updates:

Emblems quaremaster prices have being change:
Ametrine, Dreastone and eye of zull use to cost 10 EoH same as 10 EoT , now cost 15EoT
Cardinal, Kings and Majestic used to cost 20EoH, now cost 15EoT

Will be cool keep the older prices.

About the quest:
Ok its cool to make players do more instances but...
Come on kill illidan? for 2 EoH? are u serios?
kill all horde bosses like they spawm all day... by EoH and some honor plus 99 horde kills... really what u thinking...
The axe quest its ok, simple and soloable
and the Upgrade keep and pinacle are aceptable

But have u think about non lvl 80 players? i mean lower players than lvl50? they cant kill a guard at ogrimar or sw.

about vendor prices... are very expensive. i mean lets say i do for a month all the imposible quest will be like 6 at day.. if im very lucky to do all the quest. means in a month i will do 180 EoH if i play all days and do the quest all days during 30 days... just 2 get 1 or max 2 prize for the vendor... this very very lame.

You guys either have to siginificantly increase the rate of respawn of city bosses or change the system because waiting 2 hours for a boss respawn means only a few people will get the dailys done....

[itzdevin]

pretty good stuff. wish there were a few more pve daillies but either way we are able to get event stuff at a more consistent rate. So I heard that the maze was going to be open daily, is this true?

[gabriel1644]

INCREASE THE RESPAWN RATE!!

[JusticeX19A]

We need to polish a few things and all the issues are being looked into.

[matthias1020]

What changes are being made to the vote system? I don't see anything different yet.....

[amusedwicc]

Alright, time to get writing~

/cracks knuckles

I had been looking forward to some of the changes that were advertised, and looking forward to seeing how these would be enabled. But I do have to say, I have a few bones to pick. The first, would be, the on-use procs of Essence of the Enchanter and Essence of the Immortal.

I will use my shadow priest as an example, Pylae has a haste rating of: 1212 in DPS Gear, that is a haste rating of 36.96%. This is self buffed, not in a raid, not in a party, and not near anyone that could give me any sort of haste buff. This is without my Black Magic enchant proccing (an extra 250 haste.)

I also have the Essence of the Enchanter trinket on her.
The on-use proc is now 464 haste with a 2 minute cooldown.

Lets see what 464 haste will do to me~

1676 haste rating, or 51.11% haste. This puts me over the GCD cap, which is ~50% iirc. This is, again, without Black Magic proccing,and without anyone who has talents/buffs to haste. Black Magic gives 250 haste, Wrath of Air is an additional 5%, and I am not even going to go into swift retribution and other talents/buffs. (If I popped Essence while the enchant procced that would be 1926 haste. I cannot be bothered to figure out what the % would be. 5% of 1926 is 2022.3... with wrath of air... See where I'm going with this?)

Honestly, 464 spell power would have been better all around than 464 spell haste. (And it may prove that 464 haste may need to be nerfed in and of itself.)

Now the Tank Trinket...
[complain]
I loved that there was an on-use dodge buff on this sucker. I could shake pesky stuff like Frostbite and Mortal wound when a boss got lucky. An armor one that requires I get hit 5 times for it to be useful to me might as well be useless. (I don't care what people tell me, I'm stacking avoidance!) Blah, I say! Blah!

Point of that wall of text: I really wish the use-procs has been left alone! You guys had said you were halving what was already on the trinkets, not changing them! [/complain]

One thing about these currencies...

It doesn't seem like they were converted fairly, and a lot of people are feeling sort of cheated.

In a GM-hosted event, in the past, we got x3 Shard of Eternal Victory. (Unless a maze or un'goro, where we got 6.) The best items on the vender were x40 Shard of Eternal Victory. Now Justice tells us the GM events will give us 1 additional emblem of eternal victory, unless it is the maze. (Which will give us 2.) That would imply that the conversion rate from Shards to Emblems would be 1:3. (They were converted 1:1.)

As if to add insult to injury, most items are now more expensive.

Eternal Jeeves, for example, had been 20 Shards of Eternal Victory. It is now 75 Emblems of Eternal Victory. At a 1:3 conversion rate it should have been 60 EoEV. If you would like to add in the apparent ease/availability of there now being 2 dailies and 2 weeklies available to do, that would realistically increase the price. (Which was done...)

I know life isn't fair, but really? You had to be damn lucky to catch an event before this new system. (Which I like, it just needs... a lot of tweaking.) And it feels like we were cheated. I know several people who, had been assured, that they would be able to get the items they had planned on getting before the update with the shards/currency that was coming.

Maybe, it would be worth considering fixing the ratio before it becomes a bigger mess to sort out?

I had more to say but it seems like that's being fixed/adjusted already.

Hmm, are the nerfs of the trinkets itself already made? I just logged on my Warrior and it still had exactly the same Trinket (100 sta + 206 resil) as before, and in the shop it's the same. There are indeed the changes in the shop for the Emblem of Heroism, Thor flying above you, etc. But the trinkets are still the same (And yes, I deleted my Cache..)

Another note: The Emblems of Heroism are still in your bag, instead of the currency tab.
