Überraschenderweise spielten die für die Entwicklung von Battle for Azeroth verantwortlichen Mitarbeiter von Blizzard Entertainment im Verlauf der vergangenen Nacht den brandneuen Build 26610 auf die Testserver der geschlossenen Beta dieser kommenden Erweiterung auf, der trotz seiner geringen Größe aber dennoch einige äußerst interessante Neuerungen mit sich brachte. Den Berichten der Data Miner zufolge beinhaltete diese neue Spielversion von Battle for Azeroth nämlich den Ablauf des Szenarios rund um die Freischaltung der Mag’har, eine Reihe von neuen Erfolgen, hochauflösende Modelle für die Erdelementare des Spiels und neue Modelle für Uther Lichtbringer und Rhonin. Weitere Details zu den Inhalten von Build 26610 findet ihr bei Interesse in der folgenden Übersicht. Die Freischaltung der Mag’har: Nachdem der letzte Build für die Beta von Battle for Azeroth bereits die Dialoge für die Freischaltung der Mag’har als spielbares Volk der Horde beinhaltete, folgten mit dem neuen Build 26610 nun auch noch die einzelnen Schritte für das Szenario rund um diese Rasse. Der in diesen Schritten erwähnte Exarch Orelis erinnert bisher noch sehr stark an die lichtgeschmiedeten Draenei. Tyranny of the Light NEW Stage 1: Travel to Beastwatch Go to the aid of Beastwatch! It is the site of an impending assault by the Lightbound. NEW Stage 2: The Lightbound Defend Beastwatch against the Lightbound assault. NEW Stage 3: Evermorn Hold Track down Exarch Orelis in Evermorn Hold. NEW Stage 4: Exarch Orelis Defeat the Lightbound Exarch. NEW Stage 5: Report to the Warchief Return to Grommash Hellscream at Hellsreach Citadel. NEW Stage 6: Defense at Brimstone Tower Use the turret at the top of Brimstone Tower to defend the Mag’har. NEW Stage 7: Narrow Escape Escape Gorgrond through the Rift to Azeroth. Neue Modelle: Zur Überraschung dieser Community beinhaltete dieser neue Build neben neuen hochauflösenden Modellen für Erdelementare auch noch ein neues Modell für Uther Lichtbringer und Rhonin mit sich. Das neue Modell für Uther passt sehr gut zu dem optischen Update für das Grabmal dieses Charakters und könnte auf neue Inhalte (Rückblenden) rund um diesen Charakter hindeuten. Die Belohnung für den Erfolg “Glory of the Wartorn Hero“: Wer es in Battle for Azeroth schafft alle Erfolge in den mythischen Dungeon dieser Erweiterung abzuschließen und den dafür gewährten Erfolg “Glory of the Wartorn Hero” zu erlangen, der wird scheinbar mit einem Obsidian Krolusk als Reittier belohnt.
