The Covenant system in Shadowlands is honestly pretty neat and I like all the different aesthetics. The issue for me so far is that the covenant abilities and skill trees can often be pretty busted on specific classes, which slowly pushes you to choose that one whether you want to or not.
After playing through all of the storylines, Venthyr was by far my favourite. Revendreth is pretty cool, the lore of it is nice and the campaign had some pretty good characters! So cause of that I decided to not look at any statistics and just choose it on my ret paladin.
The abilities were nothing special honestly, but I didn't think too much about it and went ahead to do my desired late game content - PvP. And oh boy, I can tell you it took me a couple of battlegrounds for me to start eyeballing what other ret paladins were capable of from the other covenants. Kyrian had busted burst damage, night fae had a lot more mobility which is amazing for ret paladins and necrolord has nifty additional DPS. Meanwhile, I was standing there to the side like some idiot trying to cast my 2 abilities with a cast time, only to be interrupted each time. It didn't feel great. I loved venthyr but I couldn't help but ask myself "What if...?".
So yea! That wasn't really too good in my opinion but it is what it is.
Also the faeries from Ardenweald are creepy as hell, whoever of you thinks they're cute or something - there's something wrong with you! I MEAN LOOK AT THEM WHAT EVEN IS THAT

What would your sinstone read?
Mine would probably be: "Actually likes garrisons".
You monster
Dispelled world buffs from people in classic outside raids
Mine would be "Bought store mounts with real money"
Ganked like 100 alliance players in STV classic,God i miss it
Buying boost gear and tell other's the game is so easy. oh ye Store mounts...
Yeah, when one of the Necrolord dailies involves playing fetch with a 3 headed snake tentacle dog, no other covenant can compare.
Flappy Kyrians?
Follow the path.
Necrolords have the best dalies imo
@@bonkyouded straight up. The kyrians jumping games all stuck, cause your fighting ping
I’ve done that one as a world quest like 6 times as Kyrian tho
That Lady Moonberry is scarier than entirety of the Emerald Nightmare.
Yup
Bet n'zoth would shit himself if he saw that
I don't get it why do people think she's creepy besides this video? :))
@@adelinawindrunner573 Some people on the forums think its her little voice, but I think a lot of it is just memes x)
I love my creepy faerie bff.
the fucking "hehe" from the rogue got me
I’ve watched that part about 20 times now 😂
Same! Actually there's a few videos on here that does the head tilt "heh/keke" noise that just kills me XD
*Ehe te nandayo*
I want this soundeffect so badly (without music in the background)
SAME! Lmao
The tauren Grab was on point. That kyrian graduated.
Lol that killed me lmao
Got that Red Bull for her wings
Kyrian Daily Quest Complete: Grab Maw Walker.
The Slap was for Extra Credit.
Press 6, Thanks xD
That Lady Moonberry face is the stuff of nightmares...
I shant be sleeping this evening, or any after :(
That... was the most terrifying thing I've seen in a wow machinima.
As a fae, I can relate :
*_" If this... is the afterlife... then I never want to live again! "_*
My poor muscles. Laughed way too hard. ^^
It made me uncomfortable cause she is an adorable character! LOL
I love how everyone accepts the necrolord are the happy place
ppl that dont care about the "meta"
@@MyViolador DK: (sweats nervously)
@@MyViolador it’s the meta for a few specs
You mean shaman class hall?
Abomination Limb
Let us be realistic. Most players would have a Sinstone so large we'd need to ask the nearest titan to carry it for us.
is it a sin that I kinda spread the blood plague back in vanilla without knowing what I did?
Does criticizing a healer count?
@@hiddenmaster6062 depends on if the healer really deserved it or not
Pvp whispering to player that they are so noobs that their mother is €#€@# and €#&_ more tilts. Yeah so loooong sins
Anima drought? *laughs at own sinstone* What anima drought?
I love that necrolord reference bc it's true. Everything looks like a waste land but most characters are so wholesome.
Yeah .. except when they kill off the biggest badass honorable dude off screen..
"have you been keeping up with your rituals?"
also... Plaguedaddy :3
@@tnecniw stop!
Necrolords are so polite, I love the greeting "You look oddly hale today!".
God dammit i lost it way too hard at "Maw walker grabbing practice" :D :D :D
Indeed. You -know- that's why some folk picked that covenant, just to get slap-choked like that tauren.
hahahahah 100% agreed
with my main being a female draenei, i never suffer from such humilian
@@bonefetcherbrimley7740 that covenant would anyone simpian
*proceeds to punch dummy neck*
Sinstone: "YOU NINJALOOTED HAND OF JUSTICE??? AS A PRIEST????"
Because inner fire!
EVERY LOOT IS PRIEST LOOT, EVEN THO, WE CAN'T USE IT, IT'S OURS.
But you're not hunters :'C
This has legitimately happened to me. Though, the priest claims they hit need by accident.
and then I DE'ed it infront of him
the worgen killed me, that little "hehe" is the exact troll laughter that is somehow considered a personality these days
Special place in hell for people like that
Ehe te nandayo!!!
HehE
Bwahahahahahahaha!
I thought that was hilarious, especially since my main was a rogue.
When the rotting zombie skeleton realm turns out to be the most cheerful and happy. Necrolord Gang represent
Nurgle is pleased by this
*Has five SL characters, all at 60.*
*4 DKs, 1 Shaman*
*All are Necrolords*
Represent
@@Handles-Suck-UA-cam who makes 4 dk's
@@dragonmaster1808 I made 37 to farm the Death Metal Knight for the Necromedes transmog.
100% worth it.
I was expecting for Worgen to be Goldshire RP server veteran, but this stuff works too.
No no, he has to belong with the Venthyr. Those people you are talking about go straight to the maw, no exceptions.
I never believed the tales of GS RP until I checked it for myself. That was gahd awful
@@randerson4124 Best stay away from that horrid place, friend.
I feel a sinstone used on a Goldshire RPer would just explode from being unable to handle the endless list of horrors it would be cursed to attempt recording.
*It worgs, too. :P
"Sylvanas is temporary but Bastion is eternal"
Oh I saw what you did there
I didn't get that one. Care to explain?
@@mst4705 what i think it means as the Bastion look like angel and angels are eternal
he literally used the word 'forever' and not 'eternal' though.. kids these days.
@@mst4705 is a meme format: "Don't Look at Her, boobs are temporary, the Horde is eternal"
@@DeathmentalPvP It's the same thing, I just made it like that to make the reference easier, Oh elders
that Dredger was not prepared... for the Sins of a wow-player.
.. hehe!
"Maw walker grabbing practice" LMAO
Necrolords is absolutely correct, they're the most wholesome skeleton army the afterlife has ever seen.
Also, fun fact: tier 4 abomination stitching lets you summon Twigin and for two minutes you get an infinite-use super jump and goblin glider with the option to land at a point of your choosing. And it works in all zones.
Yeah, Necrolords get bargain bin flight before 9.1!
9.2* watch Blizz milk this out.
@@Oh-Ben we were already told it would be 9.1 and only require renown this time, it's the whole reason they didn't bring back the flight whistle
BUTTONS
@@AdamG3691 i guess it need cap renown?
@@Svanberg123 MRRAAAAZzz
The lore when the Tauren gets chocked is so good and it’s the same Tauren that’s gets chocked in the shadowlands launch experience
I can't wait for the next Expansion when everyone is alive again und we just see that Tauren doing some Asphyxiation with his Pants down. Hanging from the Ceiling just so he can get back to Bastion. But ending up in Revendreth and complaining about the Torture being to easy on him.
"O..OK! So, should I just climb on your back or- GAHURK!!"
@@alexander1055
Redeemed Denathrius: repent your sins, you will be forgiven.
Tauren: hnngggh harder daddy...
Denathrius: ...what. the. fuck.
@@AdamG3691 have you listened to him in raid? He'd clearly welcome that kind of interaction.
@@AdamG3691 Tauren: "...you call this choking? I've met GNOMES with more grip strength then you!"
That is completely accurate, everyone complaining except Necros. They just petting puppies.
For real, Necrolord is the best!
And kitties! Check out the slime cat achievement, it's super cute.
the kyrian part... i felt that
Those are some damn fine Thighs.
...I like it
Also they fly a lot in skirts...
The coomer covenant
@@darkarcheos very SHORT skirts for some
That Kyrian part.
Yes.
Bastion is a place of the best looking girls in whole game.
I lost it at the "if this is the afterlife I never want to live again" - probably not exact but gd I was laughing so hard
That kyrian bit awoke something in me.
That you like buff women?
@@UnknownPersononGoogle Correct
Just 2 months until RE8 is out. Guess Kyrian will hold me over till then. Originally wasnt interested in them
"ehe." that part got me
We have a double layer of gold here
And this confirm that the Necrolords are the best no matter what Icy Veins can tell you.
Went Necrolord as a warrior. No regrets.
they are the coolest though imo. kyrian is just a mix of christian, norse and greek myth and venthyr are just the 10000th itteration of transylvanian vampires. night fae is just every fantasy forest trope melded into one. necrolords actually seems to have some character
I, a PvP frost Mage-Necrolord have no regrets! Screw meta!
As a Dk its the best covenant
i think this video forgot to mention the necrowaifus with metal bikini
“Sylvanas is temporary, bastion is forever” 😂😂😂😂
Can't wait to get the flying mount where it's just a kyrian holding you by the neck
Sinstone: the main reason I raided after the introduction of transmog was so I could get better gear to solo old raids for xmog.
Wait this is a sin oh god this is what I do
LUL my reason was purely to get the limited mounts, once I get them I leave the guild
The only reason to play the game is xmog.
that's not a sin, its DUTY!
Necrolord was spot on. They objectively have the best mount in the game. It's nuts.
"Sylvanas is temporary. Bastion is forever."
2:15 Yes. This is the correct response.
Anduin:HOW ABOUT NO
@@yanastase we all know Anduin is married to Wrathion
My character's sinstone would read:
"Pretended to be a hero of Azeroth but in fact, didn't even care about Azeroth, just in for the epic loots."
I don't know how you do it, but every little subject you cover is just so freaking spot-on it binds my soul, if you know what I mean. :D Your content is such a treasure, dude.
Also, thanks for that Lady Moonberry nightmare I'll have tonight.
Any time!
@@CaptainGrim You need to make that a wallpaper. Screenshotting from the video does not do it justice.
Dam maybe i should have picked kyrian. Getting choked by a kyrian is my dream
weird
I dont even play wow and im fucking sign for the Kyrian. God bless those angels.
Yeah they should have given a litle bit more attention to the grabing animation instead of inserting the "fall" animation there.
@@MolotovKiller xD
BY THE POPE THEY’RE THICC AND HOLY! DEUS VULT!
You are amazing, the pacing and timing of the animations along with delivery and cuts. This channel is pure gold.
I really appreciate it, thank you :)
Ah yes Kyrian, land of the thiccc
Kreygasm
The Tauren really enjoyed the last video it seems...
that 1:26 worgen laugh made me scream lmao
I'm a Warlock, bringer of destruction, consumer of life, user of Fel Magic aaaaaaaaaand I'm night fae....
yeee i escaped that fate with demo lock. necrolords for the win
What size are you in Butterfly Wings? :D
@@sindrimyr5351 OMG can i make my own demonology warlock into a nerolord is it better than fae or bastion? Although i wanted him venthyr :/
@@eastbow6053 venthyr i have to admit is very bad for demo, at least in my opinion. Necrolord got great synergy with demonology, decimating bolt is great and allows you to make some really strong demonbolt builds. as far as i have seen it is the best option for demo lock
@@sindrimyr5351 there are crazy PVP builds I’ve been messing around with that make demo bolt hit for 15’+ crits back to back
2:49 so that's the the most horrific thing in a wow machinama I've ever seen, I love it and well done but I'm pretty sure I'l be seeing it in my nightmares.
That was hilarious, the venthyr one and the kyrian one was the best ones, I loved how the kyrian was a sequel to the maw walker grabbing, it got even funnier than the previous vid
yeap, as a Paldin. 100% agree. I love my thicc-thigh covenant.
3:25 I find that gesture of appreciation so cute lol
The necrolord one is something I felt too.
Most badass covenant in game and speciality is dressing up dolls. Abomination dolls to be fair.
Also grabbing maw walker practice is so true
"Maw Walker grabbing practice" lmao
So we all agree that Bastion is the 'Death by Choky-choke' Convent?
In more ways than one if you catch my drift *wink - wink*
Convent?
@@vincenzomusella3029 At this point, it is not an Convenant anymore ;)
The Tauren wanted snu-snu
The secret to not getting choked is to be a Darkspear Troll so they grab your face instead.
Sinstone: Spams RP speech on Ability macros. "FOR THE FROZEN THRONE" "YOUR MIND IS FEEBLE" yada yada
Awww but I love doing that on big cooldowns
1:25
The best "eh-he" I've ever seen
"FRIENDS NEED TO STICK TOGETHER!"
Hahaha flytrap is the Best, IT DOESNT HAVE FALL DAMAGE
This part with Lady Moonberry was
PERFECT XD
That Lady Moonberry was actually terrifying. I can't stop thinking about it.
help
Jokes on you im into that shit
The little chuckle from the worgen got me so hard
2:49 ... Thank you for that, I won't sleep for a week.
And I'll have nightmares about it during the day
@@warandos836 So... Daymares?
Step on me Tall Kyrian Lady! LOL Great video as always bro!!!
The most grimdark edge covenant is also the most wholesome
You have given me a new perpective for Bastion...
...and inspiration for a new fanfic!
This is one of my top favorite Saturday morning cartoons.
The facial animations are top notch! Every video you make gets just better!
Now I really want The Adventures of Palm Tree Head and Fly Trap to happen
i love the quote "sylvanas is temporary, bastion is forever."
2:49 Alright I've had enough
as priceless as ever........... im so happy to see it this time so sooon.
LOOOOL the construct acting like a dog almost was GOLD 😂😂😂
You've gotten so much better at making these so quickly, it's insane!
Also that fairy is absolutely horrifying jesus christ
Damn man, you had me laughing in stitches again. Keep up the awesome work!
I'm happy to hear that! Cheers :)
2:48 that is the scariest fucking thing I have ever seen in my entire life.
Did anyone notice that the sylvanas loyalists armor changed into the Bastion set at 02:06?
Necrolord is my favourite. That cute abomination
These videos always bring me to tears they are so hilarious! Thanks for another fantastic video Grim!
My pleasure! Thanks for the support :)
Awesome work Grim! That Nightfae Fairy is spot on, and I love the Kyrian throat grabbing dummies Hahaha
This is the best animated one to date. Very well done
You're really nailing those intense scenes that are way darker than the rest. Love those videos every time I see it
Kyrian slam-choking got me dying this video and the one before it lol
2:00 is that ghoul attack sound from WC 3?
it is indeed.
you have some good ears xD
Oh my good lord. Your videos are frickin' awesome!
The one that really got me was when the worgan did that little giggle about the ganking low levels with war mode lol
1:46
He rememberd all those S&M plays
2:21
AGAIN)))))))))) THAT'S GENIOUS THAT YOU HAVE MENTIONED IT!) Thank you for your videos!)
Another absolute MASTERPIECE
I am so glad you started doing machinimas. we all are!
These are so funny great stuff man i had a blast watching a lot of em
A year and a half later, this is still the best thing about Shadowlands.
The worgen laugh at the end of the venthyr made me cry laughing...
Dude I'm a fan, this is godlike content, thank you so much for doing this. Can't wait to watch everything
You never fail to bring me tears of laughter... It's just so perfect! :D Love it...
The choice was never mine to make. May wowhead guide us
I can’t describe how much I look forward to these vids... the kyrian editing was amazing btw incredible job well done
The best thing I've seen for a long, long while - hilarous! 🥰😂
I got way too damn excited seeing a new vid. Well done Capt Grim, another masterpiece XD
So accurate that people lookup which covenant is best for their class vs blizz idea that we ever are going to choose differently
This editing and animation takes machinima to a whole other level.. 😂
This guy never disappoints. Awesome work again. 👍
Top quality content as usual grim ❤ great work :D
Tauren - "If this is the after life, then I never want to live again!...."
Gets strangled XD
i see a Grim video, i stop everything and go watch it
As always, pure gold! I love it!
Woo new Captain Grim! Always makes my day!
They're creepy and they're kooky
Mysterious and spooky
They're all together ooky
The Necrolords covenant
"So, why did you join the Kyrian?"
"THICC Squats"
The puppetry on this machinima is hilarious!
The Worgan snikering and the tuaran throat grab....pissed myself!!! Great Videos...... plez more....lol
