It starts with the early access slot (22nd) and ends at the end of the global launch slot with the beginning of the season one slot, so from 22nd to sep. 10th. I meant exactly that picture.
But as I said, I would’ve also read out of it, that it is available during EA and GL, otherwise they should’ve cut the first half.
It appears that way. I thought I had completed that questline myself, but nothing happened. That’s fine by me. I accidentally stumbled across it in the first place and have very little intention of rolling a toon right now.
Yeah, that one hit right in the feels.
I liked this one of earthen that I saw some time ago on the earthen thread in this forum
I paid extra yet the cool content is still time locked. Bad review on Blizzard now I will bomb their reputation.
The requisite achievement is this one:
And that fourth storyline chapter will become available on September 4 in this region.
You mean the 4th part of “The War Within campaign”? Because “Merrix and Steelvein” is already in the game:

I have to say it is very disappointing, that we won’t be able to unlock the new race in week one. I hope with it we’ll really be able to unlock them then. So we have at least some chance to level and equip them for Season 1.
This was promised in EA. There is no power behind it. Lots of people were looking forward to earthern and they are time gating it. Slap in the face for the people who bough early access. Dont really see how they can do that legally?
just scorpion kicked myself in the back of the skull
wdym 4th of september i want to be a rock guy
Really not happy with the extra wait. The infographic said it’d be at launch when we’d be able to get Earthen. Can we NOT timegate this any longer? Just turn it on already so I can get the thing I’ve been most excited for this expansion. ;-;
Thanks for that info, but what can you tell us about advertisement where in your launch road map you clearly stated and said that we will be able to unlock it during early access and now it’s on sep 4th ? I guess you cant say anything about it right ?
Edit: It’s good to know that I got screwed over by some empty promise (again), never gonna pre-order the best edition ever again … don’t wanna get disappointed again …
The Earthen should be available at launch. All advertisement regarding the game states at launch and does not give us a time stamp of September 4th, a full week after launch. That might land Blizzard in a bit of legal hot water, as they’ve sold us a product and then changed the conditions of the sale after the release of the product.
This really sucks.
In fact, to paraphrase the store page EXACTLY:
Available at launch²
Earn the trust of the Earthen and unlock an all-new playable Allied Race. Explore Delves, new bite-sized world instances you can tackle alone or with up to four friends, plus an NPC companion. Grow in strength as you level to 80 and earn new skills with Hero Talent trees, share progress across your family of characters with the Warbands system, and take to the skies with Skyriding, now available for hundreds of existing mounts!
So… Why has the date now been changed, Blizzard?
I was literally sitting here waiting to create a Pally Earthen as my main, while listening to a streamer in the background and all of a sudden I hear “Earthen aren’t available until September 3rd”…
Same. So sick of it
BIG L Blizzard. Getting used to those now…
yuup not to mention that for people who have been planing to main an earthen, they will have to level while everyone else is already grinding gear as if the end game isn’t a race already -_- big L, seriously, BIGGEST for me in a long while.
Same I have been waiting to reroll an Earthen Mage, I thought we could do it in EA so I bought that, nope, I thought we could do it at launch so I got everything else done ready and spammed the quest at launch…still nope, now being told it’s NEXT wednesday, the 4th…what the actual f, will that even be correct, because the blue post says thats chapter 4, will 5 be then too or will that be in november? Or maybe you’d like us to wait until the next expansion?
Well, that’s a disappointment. Not having access to the entire questline during early access was understandable, but this is another 8-9 days, huh? Are you trying to anger people just for the fun of it, or trying to scare people who are worried they’ll fall behind into buying race change services? I guess I’ll just keep playing random alts and working on professions, but I was looking forward to making the character I intend to main during this expansion tonight. Meh.
