Lost Edicts of the Watcher: OBTAINED!



So... I switched realms from Sylvanas to Defias Brotherhood because my friend Bega plays there. Because I already played a paladin, although at a lower level, on Sylvanas I decided to use Character Boost on that class and just went along...

So far, I am playing Protection / Retribution, depending on the situation at hand, ignoring Holy as much as I could because I was never much of a healer. My last healing encounter was with a Resto Shaman during WotLK expansion...

So... Today I logged into the game deciding to continue last week's action, push forward and complete as much of the World Quests as possible because [World Quest Bonus Event] had started on 5th. Headed to Faronaar in Aszuna... After completing the World Quest [Not On My Watch], I went on to complete [WANTED: Inquisitor Tivos] and I just went around, killing everything in my way, killed Tivos and just when I was about to get to the portal and get back on the ground, an [Eredar Navigator] appeared and aggroed me. Killed him and... There it was...



I could not believe it as it was not expected and I didn't even know what was the criteria for obtaining it. So far, requirement for all Hidden Appearances was Artifact Knowledge LVL5 and after looting it, I went to WoWhead to check if someone has posted any info about how he Appearance was obtained. Strolling through the comments I found a passage of text written by the WoWhead user Confonix.

This post is no longer relevant, but I'm leaving it here cause I put in some serious work trying to figure this out... only to find out it was really a random drop that was gated behind level 5 Artifact Research... sooo much wasted time...
As WoWhead user Natrina noted that this is a skin of Reinhardt's Rocket Hammer from Overwatch.


Another interesting thing (noted by Reddit user Mastrcapn) is that, when you use [Divine Shield] with this Appearance, your "bubble" gets an upgrade...


While searching various forums about other Hidden Appearances, I found a thread about Corrupted Ashbringer on MMO-Champion forums and checked [Heart of Corruption] comments on WoWhead so, I guess that's gonna be the next one I am gonna be chasing.

Cheers and happy hunting your own Hidden Appearances!

Legacy of the Void

Yeah, I know. It's been a while since we wrote anything. Redub is being lazy as always and he still didn't write some things he promised he would and I am tied up with work. Not that I didn't become lazy as of late but, meh... We are preparing to do a Podcast of sorts. I know we are still small fishes in a big pond but we are gonna get together and share our thoughts about the upcoming expansion and it's features so, anyone interested in our thoughts will have something to listen.

Blizzard announced November 10, 2015 as the release date for the final expansion of their StarCraft II, Legacy of the Void and released a cinematic trailer for it.


As it was expected, MMO-Champion poll showed that many people are planning to re-roll as Demon Hunters when Legion gets released. Along with that, Demon Hunter class art was released.



Patch 6.2.2 was released and, if you completed all required achievements, you can fly in Draenor. Mercenary Mode was, also, released in this patch.

Battle.net Mobile Authenticator got graphical updates so, fire up your mobile devices and update it.

Mount awarded to people who buy "Collector's Edition" of the Legion will receive [Illidari Felstalker] mount and it looks awesome.
