Ritual of Summoning will not work inside instances or Netherstorm

Im happy with most of the changes and progression of Beta so far.
But i dont understand this at all.
Simply a quality of life change?
It would change something frankly, for example WPvP or maybe tryhards go respecc during raid. But come on, thats nothing too bad to take it away from the majority who would enjoy it.
Netherstorm is clearly something for an extra solution no doubt.

Am i wrong and dont get the real purpose of it?

Tk dungeons without flying?
Some creazy skipps with use of soul ston and sumons?
Getting to instance with out haveing attunment ?
Summon to boss or dungeon after spell stealling some powerfull buff or enslave powerfull demon ?

Just some of my thoughts why

I don’t get it either. It prevents nothing. If respeccing for bosses will be useful, every speedrunner guild will have a squad of summoners behind the portal anyway. The delay is exactly one ritual of summoning cast.
Similarly, if you are in the market to get summoned to Botanica at lvl 68 or whatever, you already have money for flying on that alt, and you’ll just get boosted in whatever the second best choice is, probably some of the coilfang instances with all the yellow slaves and plenty of ledges.
All this does is removing a large QoL from “normal” players. It won’t even encourage WPvP, everyone will just dive into portals on epic mounts from week two anyway.
It’s like no keyring in classic in P1, just a small FU from Blizz.

What it does is require you to get a flying mount to complete the karazhan attunement.

I thought classic economy was so inflated everybody’s going into TBC with tens of thousands of gold, so I’m sure 1k for regular flying won’t be a problem. Lvling 60-70 will get you over 1k gold.

fair point

you can’t enter an instance without attunement, summoning will trigger the same thing entering does so you won’t be allowed in.

all buffs/whatever you can spellsteal are removed upoin entering an instance

It’s a meh for me, idc either way.
edit: actually i understand not allowing summons inside instances, but the netherstorm thing is stupid.

Netherstorm summoning is the bomb , they should stick with NOT allowing summoning to Netherstorm period ! , if u want to do Mech / both / arca then buy a flying and be 70 !

Couldn’t they just put a lvl 70 level requirement on the TK dungeons instead of this kinda stupid anti-qol change? Every 70 has the 1k gold for regular flying anyway.

Hey why not have portals in shattrat to all quest zones so you dont have to take the FP`s !!!.. or wait nah

Keep the no summons to Netherstorm , dont like it dont play it :wink:

Okay understood :clown_face:

Please google “non sequitur”.

I’m guessing it’s to prevent what happens in raids on private servers with using shaman alts to pre bloodlust on pull, then they immediately HS out and other raid members (presumably more shamans) accept raid summons seconds before pulling the boss. You this with good timing and you get like a 30second free bloodlust for the 20 players on the pull.

It’s a thing that takes place, this would break that gameplay.
