Ashran Changes: Patch 6.1

Ashran Changes in Patch 6.1

Want Conquest points? Farm Events

1.) There is now a ten minute delay between battles after Grand Marshal Tremblade or High Warlord Volrath has been defeated (down from 30 minutes).

2.) Grand Marshal Tremblade and High Warlord Volrath no longer award Conquest Points when defeated.

3.) Ashran's queuing system received substantial changes to reduce wait times.

4.) Event objectives now award 100 Conquest Points (down from 125).

5.) Rare creatures and NPCs now drop 40-50 Artifact Fragments (down from 60-80).

6.) Guards in Ring of Conquest now drop 6-8 Artifact Fragments (down from 8-11).

7.) Ashmaul Pearls and Ghost Truffles have been removed. Players can now buy potions from Crafticus Mindbender (Alliance) and Dazzerian (Horde) for 10 Artifact Fragments each.

8.) Kowalski's Music Box now has a 15-minute cooldown (down from 1 hour).

9.) Scroll of Mass Invisibility, Scroll of Replenishment, and Scroll of Town Portal has been removed.

10.) Wand of Death, Wand of Mana Stealing, and Wand of Neutralization has been removed.

Current Bug: At the moment players cannot be invited to a raid via chat. It is a bug which was confirmed via Twitter by a developer. However, fixing this bug will require a realm restart.

Personally I'm not sure where the direction of this battleground is going. I can see that the new changes will throw both factions into more contact and off the main road. However by reducing Ashran to 100 Conquest Points per event it has become a very inefficient way to earn Conquest Points  This may push PVP players to do more Arenas/RBGs but if that's the case then what purpose does Ashran truly serve?
