EVERYTHING Coming In Patch 12.0.7 - Easy Myth Gear & Crests, New Borrowed Power & Huge Gear Catch Up

[00:00] Hey folks, this is Khani. Patch 1207

[00:03] goes live on June 16th, and it's shaping

[00:05] up to be quite a large patch with a lot

[00:07] of content to look forward to. We have

[00:09] some new mini zones to explore with

[00:11] openw world difficulty options that let

[00:13] solo players obtain myth track gear.

[00:16] There are new ways to get your hands on

[00:18] myth crests without doing any group

[00:20] content. There's a brand new one boss

[00:22] raids that drops significantly higher

[00:24] item level loot. The Omnium Folio system

[00:27] will provide some large power boosts

[00:29] that will persist through the rest of

[00:30] the Midnight expansion, and we have a

[00:32] bunch of new story content to look

[00:34] forward to. The Turbulent Timewise event

[00:36] returns with all new rewards. There are

[00:38] various updates to the user interface.

[00:40] Some systems were made much more player

[00:42] friendly, and leveling your alts will be

[00:44] much faster when the patch goes live.

[00:47] This patch is jam-packed with new

[00:49] gameplay options and gear catch-ups. So,

[00:51] let's go over everything coming in patch

[00:53] 1207. Now, before we jump in, be sure to

[00:56] hit up that like button and subscribe so

[00:57] you never miss another video. First up,

[01:00] patch 1207 introduces or reintroduces

[01:04] two new minis for us to explore. We'll

[01:06] be venturing back to Val and Nigel, but

[01:09] this time we'll be spending a lot more

[01:10] time here completing quests and farming

[01:13] currencies. Almost every activity in

[01:15] these new zones will reward you with

[01:17] field accolades, including completing

[01:19] world quests, killing rares, and looting

[01:21] treasures. Each rare you kill also has a

[01:24] chance to drop warbound champion gear.

[01:26] So, if you have any alts that you still

[01:28] need to gear up, that might help out a

[01:29] bit there. Both zones also have a new

[01:32] world boss to take down, which can drop

[01:34] warbound champion gear on normal mode or

[01:36] heroic gear on heroic mode. Killing the

[01:39] world bosses also rewards you with a big

[01:41] chunk of field accolades. So, these

[01:43] zones will make it very easy to catch up

[01:45] on gear or get any of your alts up to

[01:47] speed ready for season two. There are

[01:50] also a whole bunch of cosmetic rewards

[01:51] to pick up, including new mounts, pets,

[01:54] and transmog, and plenty of achievements

[01:57] for you to complete. Now, all of these

[01:59] rewards are significantly increased if

[02:01] you enter the zones on heroic mode.

[02:04] Whenever you use a portal to the new

[02:05] zones, you'll get a delveike screen that

[02:07] lets you pick a difficulty. So, you can

[02:10] head in on normal mode or heroic mode.

[02:12] On heroic mode, you'll be earning far

[02:14] more field accolades from every source.

[02:16] rares can drop four of six champion gear

[02:19] instead of one of six, and the world

[02:21] bosses will drop warbound hero gear. So,

[02:23] it's definitely worth upping difficulty

[02:25] if you can handle the heroic mode. This

[02:28] is the first time that we've seen

[02:29] difficulty options for the open world

[02:31] outside of a remix event. So, I am very

[02:34] interested to see how the dev team

[02:36] expands upon this idea in the future.

[02:38] Maybe we'll eventually have difficulty

[02:40] options for every midnight zone like how

[02:43] Legion Remix worked. Or maybe difficulty

[02:45] options for the new zone coming in patch

[02:47] 12.1. But we'll just have to wait and

[02:50] see how this little experiment goes. I

[02:52] guess it's not just additional field

[02:55] accolade farming, though. In heroic

[02:57] mode, you can also pick up a quest that

[02:59] rewards you with a myth track piece of

[03:01] gear. You can choose between a cloak, a

[03:03] belt, or braces. The quest requires you

[03:06] to kill the new world bosses four times

[03:08] on heroic mode, which means it could

[03:10] take up to four weeks to finish this

[03:12] quest, but this is the only source of

[03:14] myth track gear available to solo

[03:16] content players. So, it's definitely

[03:18] worth completing. The weekly quest to

[03:20] take part in the new zones activities

[03:22] has better rewards on heroic mode 2,

[03:24] including some myth quests. So, that's

[03:27] another source of myth crests for solo

[03:29] content players. That doesn't mean that

[03:31] the extra field accolades will be

[03:33] useless, though. will have some new ways

[03:35] to spend this currency. In 1207, you'll

[03:38] now be able to buy hero gear boxes for

[03:40] specific gear slots. So, you can target

[03:42] helms, shoulders, cloaks, whatever item

[03:44] you actually still need. Those gear slot

[03:47] boxes will cost you a bit more, though.

[03:49] They're currently slated for 750 field

[03:52] accolades, which does make them quite

[03:54] pricey. The increased field accolade

[03:56] rewards from the new zones, especially

[03:58] on heroic world tier, should more than

[04:00] make up for that increase, though. You

[04:02] can also buy warbound champion gear for

[04:05] specific gear slots as well. So, not

[04:07] only can you target specific items here,

[04:09] but you can then send those boxes to

[04:11] your alts to help them gear up much

[04:13] faster. Those boxes will cost you 100

[04:15] field accolades each. We'll also have

[04:18] some new ways to spend dark particles.

[04:20] The cosmetic vendor has some bulging

[04:22] bags that you can purchase that contain

[04:24] specific transmogs that have been quite

[04:27] annoying to pick up so far. So you can

[04:29] target Twilight bags, Naga bags, Ammani

[04:32] bags, and Elven bags to try and narrow

[04:34] down your options to earn the transmogs

[04:36] that you're most interested in.

[04:38] Curiously, there are some similar

[04:40] transmog focused bulging bags available

[04:43] from vendors in the new zones that offer

[04:45] up ethereal and winter themed transmog

[04:47] options, but those ones will cost 250

[04:51] field accolades each, making them

[04:53] significantly more expensive when

[04:54] compared to the dark particle boxes.

[04:57] Still, if you want to hunt down some

[04:58] specific transmog unlocks, these bags

[05:00] give you a way to target things more

[05:02] specifically. So, if you're interested

[05:04] in any of these new bags or boxes, I

[05:07] would hold on to your field accolades

[05:08] and dark particles until the patch goes

[05:11] live. Patch 1207 also introduces the

[05:14] Omnium Folio feature. This is a new

[05:17] talent tree style system that unlocks

[05:19] after a short story quest. Upon

[05:21] completion, you'll unlock the Omnium

[05:23] Folio and earn your first talent point.

[05:26] You get to choose between two different

[05:28] core rune powers. Void touched orbs

[05:30] gives you an extra boost of damage or

[05:31] healing every 10 seconds, so that seems

[05:34] more consistent. And then unleashed fire

[05:36] is just a chance to deal extra damage or

[05:38] healing. So that seems more RNG based.

[05:41] It looks like we'll earn a new point

[05:43] every week, which lets you progress

[05:45] through the tree. After four weeks, we

[05:47] should have the whole thing unlocked. If

[05:49] you're curious what some of the other

[05:50] powers in this tree can do, the second

[05:52] row provides you with some extra healing

[05:54] and defensive options. The third row

[05:56] gives you some extra healing or damage

[05:58] overtime effects when your core rune

[06:00] procs. The fourth row gives you some

[06:02] secondary stats whenever your core rune

[06:04] activates. And then the last row

[06:06] improves your core rune effect, the

[06:08] overtime effects or gives your runes a

[06:10] damage accumulation effect. So, as the

[06:13] weeks go by, you'll be able to unlock

[06:15] new powers that provide passive bonuses

[06:17] to your damage and healing. And while

[06:19] they may not be the most exciting thing

[06:21] in the world, those passive increases

[06:23] should help you achieve any end of

[06:25] season goals you may be struggling with.

[06:27] Now, what's really interesting about

[06:29] this feature is that unlike previous 7

[06:32] patch power boosts like the Cersei

[06:33] Cirlet Ring and the Titan belt, this one

[06:36] is going to stick around for much

[06:37] longer. In the preview blue post for

[06:40] this specific feature, the dev team

[06:42] notes that these rune powers will be

[06:44] available to players throughout the rest

[06:45] of the Midnight expansion. So, this

[06:48] isn't a quick power spike to finish up

[06:50] season 1 before it gets deactivated.

[06:52] These runes will provide some passive

[06:54] bonuses for the rest of the expansion,

[06:56] which means we might also see some new

[06:58] options added in future patches to keep

[07:00] things interesting. Either way, the

[07:02] Omnium Folio will definitely be at the

[07:05] top of every player's to-do list when

[07:07] this patch goes live. It's not just gear

[07:10] catch-ups and passive bonuses in this

[07:12] patch. Will also have a brand new raid

[07:14] to plunder with some of the best rewards

[07:17] available in the season. Sporefall is a

[07:19] new one boss raid in Harendar. And if

[07:21] you can overcome the challenges of Rott

[07:23] Meer, you can walk away with up to item

[07:26] level 298 gear. That's the same item

[07:29] level as fully upgraded Myth Track gear

[07:31] with an ascendant void core boost. So,

[07:33] you actually can't get most of these

[07:35] gear slots at this high of an item level

[07:38] outside of this raid, making it some of

[07:40] the best gear available for the rest of

[07:42] the season. Of course, every other

[07:44] difficulty will have a high item level

[07:46] when compared to similar difficulty or

[07:48] gear track rewards. So, it is still

[07:50] worth doing even if you aren't heading

[07:52] into mythic mode. This new raid is also

[07:55] the first time we'll have a flexible

[07:57] mythic difficulty. So you can take 15 to

[07:59] 25 players into mythic and the fight

[08:02] will adapt to your player count just

[08:04] like normal and heroic do. It will be

[08:06] interesting to see if this leads to more

[08:08] mythic kills overall and it should make

[08:10] pugging the boss a bit easier as well.

[08:13] As an extra incentive to get folks into

[08:15] the new raid, we'll have a special quest

[08:17] to take down Rott Meer on any difficulty

[08:19] that rewards you with a nebulous void

[08:21] core bonus roll. So you can pick up an

[08:23] extra bonus roll if there are still some

[08:25] items that you need to roll on. Now solo

[08:28] content players will have some more

[08:29] updates to look forward to as well.

[08:31] Starting with a new difficulty for

[08:32] ritual sites. Tier six will offer

[08:35] greater challenges and even better

[08:36] rewards, including five myth crests at

[08:39] the end of every run. You can still

[08:41] complete as many ritual sites as often

[08:43] as you want. So this provides you with

[08:45] an infinitely farmable source of myth

[08:48] crests. This is the first time solo

[08:50] content players have access to farmable

[08:53] myth crests, which will let you upgrade

[08:55] your spark crafted gear much faster than

[08:57] before. Every 80 crests you can earn can

[08:59] be turned into another piece of 285

[09:01] crafted gear. With the current spark

[09:04] count at around 14, that means you can

[09:06] make seven pieces of gear, which is

[09:08] almost half of your gear slots. You can

[09:10] also boost the item level of a crafted

[09:12] weapon using the ascendant void cores,

[09:14] so easily farmable myth crests open up a

[09:17] lot of very easy gear upgrades. This may

[09:20] be the highest item levels that solo

[09:23] content players have ever been able to

[09:24] obtain in any season so far, which will

[09:27] make the transition into season 2 quite

[09:30] interesting. You'll still be earning

[09:32] hero crests, which can help fuel gear

[09:34] upgrades or can be traded up to myth

[09:36] crests eventually, and field accolades

[09:38] to buy specific pieces of gear to fill

[09:40] in your gear slots. If you need another

[09:42] reason to take on this new difficulty,

[09:44] there's also a quest that rewards you

[09:45] with a nebulous voyor bonus role for

[09:48] completing tier six ritual sites. We

[09:51] also have quite a lot of story content

[09:53] in this patch, including the start of a

[09:55] new main story campaign that sets the

[09:57] stage for patch 12.1. With the initial

[10:00] threat of the void well quelled for now,

[10:02] the Harendar invite members of the

[10:04] various factions of midnight to a

[10:05] special ceremony. But during the

[10:07] ceremony, the history of the Ammani

[10:09] trolls is brought into question, and the

[10:12] real history of the Ammani might not

[10:14] quite line up with their own teachings.

[10:16] You'll join Zuljan as they try to

[10:18] uncover the mysteries of the past and

[10:20] the dangers lurking just beyond the

[10:22] coasts of Zoran. We'll also have some

[10:25] new lawalking adventures to work through

[10:27] that focus on the lower and key events

[10:29] surrounding them. You'll get to learn

[10:31] about some of the most iconic lower in

[10:33] troll history and how they shaped the

[10:35] different troll tribes. With the next

[10:37] patch most likely being very troll

[10:38] ccentric, this new law walking story is

[10:41] a great chance to brush up on your troll

[10:43] lore to get the most out of the new

[10:44] story content coming our way. As an

[10:47] extra bonus, the law walking screen has

[10:48] had a facelift and it looks much better

[10:50] overall, which is always nice to see.

[10:54] The turbulent timeways event will be

[10:56] returning, giving us backto-back time

[10:57] walking for 6 weeks if the PTR calendar

[11:00] holds accurate. That does mean we might

[11:02] not see every available expansion this

[11:04] time around, but we will see the

[11:06] addition of dragonfly dungeons and

[11:08] rewards, including new mounts, transmog

[11:11] sets, toys, pets, and reputation

[11:13] commendations for the dragonfly renowned

[11:15] factions. So, if you never got around to

[11:17] finishing those off, that should be much

[11:20] easier with the dragonfly time walking

[11:22] vendor goodies. You can also pick up any

[11:24] of the previous turbulent timeways event

[11:26] mounts that you may have missed, like

[11:27] the Timely Busby or Chronoc Corsair. The

[11:30] turbulent time wise event is also still

[11:32] a great time to level up any alts you

[11:34] haven't gotten around to yet, thanks to

[11:36] the stacking experience buff that caps

[11:38] out at 30% bonus experience gains. As

[11:41] you complete time walking dungeons, you

[11:43] can also work towards the master of the

[11:45] turbulent time waste 5 achievement,

[11:47] which requires you to obtain the mastery

[11:49] of time waste buff for four weeks of the

[11:51] event, which is one less week than it

[11:54] used to be. To get that buff, you just

[11:55] need to run a few timeing dungeons each

[11:58] week, which is super easy to complete.

[12:00] That achievement rewards you with the

[12:01] spawner via an mount, which is very cool

[12:04] indeed, and not just cuz it's covered in

[12:06] icicles. So, there are some unique

[12:08] rewards on offer this time around.

[12:10] During the event, the weekly time

[12:12] walking quests will reward heroic gear

[12:14] caches instead of champion gear caches,

[12:17] which will give you one last chance to

[12:18] get some very easy heroic gear for all

[12:21] of your characters, which will make

[12:22] gearing up your alts much faster as

[12:24] well.

[12:25] It's not just the turbulent time weights

[12:27] event that will speed up leveling. This

[12:29] patch also makes some significant

[12:31] adjustments to the experience rewards

[12:33] from one time or weekly quests. Delve

[12:36] first time completion quests now reward

[12:38] over 140,000 experience each, almost

[12:42] double what they used to reward. So that

[12:44] will help you shave off an extra level

[12:46] if you complete them all before you hit

[12:47] level 90. Weekly event quests from the

[12:50] major renowned factions now reward over

[12:52] a 100,000 experience each. And this

[12:54] includes the leveling weekly quest in

[12:56] Silver Moon. Prey hunts now also reward

[12:58] over a 100,000 experience while leveling

[13:01] up. So they're actually worth

[13:02] considering now. And the experience

[13:04] rewarded from dungeon quests has been

[13:06] massively increased, too. So, all in

[13:08] all, if you are doing any of these

[13:10] activities while leveling up, you should

[13:12] level significantly faster in patch

[13:14] 1207, and the bonus experience bust from

[13:17] the turbulent timeways event will just

[13:19] speed things up further. There are also

[13:22] a few housing updates to look forward

[13:23] to. Lighting will now be available

[13:25] outdoors, so you can add lights to your

[13:27] exterior plot to brighten things up a

[13:29] bit. And then the exterior decor limits

[13:32] for houses level 5 to seven have been

[13:34] raised up to 300 and 350. So you'll have

[13:37] some extra budget to add in some lights

[13:39] even if you've maxed out your exterior

[13:41] limit before the patch goes live.

[13:43] There's also a bunch of new common decor

[13:45] available from the neighborhood vendors.

[13:48] We also have a handful of important UI

[13:50] updates coming with this patch. Most

[13:52] notably for the personal resource

[13:54] display. You'll be able to change the

[13:56] overall size, width, and height of the

[13:58] health and power bars. the padding

[14:00] between the bars, opacity, and

[14:02] visibility. The health and power bars

[14:04] can be hidden individually. You can

[14:05] tinker about with the class resource

[14:07] bar. There are new options to show class

[14:09] colors or bar text. And the personal

[14:11] resource display has been updated with

[14:14] some new art. So, you might be able to

[14:16] play around with the default personal

[14:17] resource display and make something that

[14:20] suits your needs. And then there's a

[14:22] huge quality of life change coming for

[14:25] the abundance world event. You can now

[14:27] spend multiple shards of Dund done at

[14:29] once, which multiplies your rewards by

[14:31] how many shards you use at a time. So

[14:33] you don't have to do eight runs per week

[14:35] per character anymore. You can get all

[14:37] of your rewards from your weekly eight

[14:39] shards with just one run, which will

[14:41] speed up your alloyed abundance farming

[14:43] quite significantly. This is an amazing

[14:46] change, though I do think it could have

[14:48] been added in much sooner, and arguably

[14:50] should have been the way the system

[14:52] worked from day one. But I guess it's

[14:54] still better late than never. and

[14:56] farming for your epic profession tools

[14:58] should be much much easier with this

[15:00] change in place. But that's everything

[15:02] coming in patch 1207 on June 16th. So

[15:06] that's it for this video. As you can

[15:08] see, it's a pretty beefy patch with a

[15:10] whole suite of changes from new content,

[15:12] plenty of catch-up opportunities, and

[15:14] some quality of life updates to boot.

[15:17] What do you think of the new content

[15:18] coming our way? And what are you most

[15:20] looking forward to? Leave all your

[15:22] thoughts in the comments section below.
