How Do You Unlock Warfronts After Faction Change?
Direct Answer
After a faction change, you need to complete your new faction’s quests to arrive in Kul Tiras or Zandalar. This allows you to unlock the corresponding Warfront. The warfronts can then be accessed from the respective region’s capital cities: Orgrimmar (for Kul Tiras) or Boralus (for Zandalar).
Unlocking Warfronts
• Kul Tiras Warfront: Complete the introductory questline to Kul Tiras by speaking to Nathanos Blightcaller in Orgrimmar and picking up the quest Mission Statement.
• Zandalar Warfront: Complete the introductory questline to Zandalar by speaking to MOTHER in Boralus and picking up the quest The Eternal Battlefield.
Post-Faction Change Considerations
- Faction Specific Reputations: Some reputations will convert to their cross-faction equivalent if one exists. For reputations without a corresponding cross-faction reputation, they will reset back to Neutral.
- Reputation Lockouts: Reputations may lock out certain rewards or services, so it’s essential to check the specific requirements for each reputation.
Faction Change and Other Activities
- Faction Change Locks: Faction changes can sometimes result in a lock, which can take around an hour to resolve. Please check the Character Locked After Paid Service article for troubleshooting.
- In-Game Store and World of Warcraft Token: While a faction change can alter your in-game store currency and World of Warcraft Tokens, these will typically retain their value.
- Character Models and Accessories: Your character’s models and accessories may change following a faction change. The changes will typically match your new faction’s cosmetic standard.
Warfront Considerations
- Warfront Level Requirements: Warfronts require specific level requirements for both your character and your Warcraft.
- Weekly Lockouts: Each warfront has a weekly lockout, ensuring you cannot repeat the same content daily.
- Queue and Wait Times: Keep in mind that popular Warfronts may have increased queue times and wait durations.
Frequently Asked Questions
- Is there a specific Warfront I should focus on?: While there’s no definitive answer, we recommend completing the introductory questlines for both Kul Tiras and Zandalar. This will give you an understanding of the storylines and allow you to adapt to your new faction.
Conclusion
Unifying the Warfronts of Kul Tiras and Zandalar requires dedication, but the benefits of embracing your new faction’s call to arms are substantial. Remember to complete your respective faction’s introductory questline, and be patient if your character is locked temporarily following the change. When you’re ready, dive into the World of Warcraft Warfront experience and claim victory with your new faction.
