Shadowlands: Eine Übersicht zu den Blutigen Tiefen

Der vor einigen Tagen auf die Testserver der geschlossenen Alpha von Shadowlands aufgespielte Build 34902 hat unter anderem den neuen Dungeon die Blutigen Tiefen in dieser Testphase freigeschaltet und es allen daran interessierten Testern ermöglicht einen Blick auf das Innere dieser Instanz zu werfen. Bei diesem Dungeon handelt es sich um die zweite für 5 Spieler ausgelegte Instanz in der Zone Revendreth, die nach dem Release des Addons höchstwahrscheinlich auf Helden der Stufe 60 ausgelegt sein wird. Wer diesen instanzierten Ort besucht, der trifft an dieser Stelle auf vier weitere neue Encounter, deren Optik und Mechaniken alle auf den Themen von Revendreth und der Anima-Knappheit basieren. Am Ende wartet dann die unter anderem aus der Geschichte der Zone bekannte Generalin Kaal auf die Spieler.

Wer jetzt gerne mehr über die Blutigen Tiefen und die dort vorhandenen vier verschiedenen Bosse erfahren möchte, der findet folgend ein Vorschauvideo mit einem Rundgang durch diese Instanz und eine kurze Übersicht zu den Mechaniken der einzelnen Encounter.
