8.3 FULL STARTER GUIDE PART 2 – Vision Scenarios, Legendary Cloak, Currencies and Items

You will find Starter Guide Part 1 here.

In 8.3, there will be two different Vision Scenarios, which is a glimt of how the world would look like if N´Zoth would complete his task.

Vision of N´Zoth (scroll down for guide)
Horrific Vision (scroll down for guide)

You can only be inside a scenario for a certain time.

There is a Sanity bar once you enter a vision. This bar ticks until the bar is filled, and when filled 100% you will be tossed out of the scenario.

You can reduce the speed of the bar to finish by using certain items inside the scenario that you loot, but mainly from your legendary cloak and Titanic Research Archive.

Legendary Cloak

You get this cloak early in the 8.3 questline. Play the game, and you get it.

You start at 5% sanity reduction from all sources inside the scenario.

You can upgrade your cloak which will increase the % sanity reduction and also the ilvl of the cloak.

You upgrade it by finding pages in the Horrific Scenario of a volume compendium (starting at volume 1).

Once you have it you turn it in to Wrathion and he rewards you with a Corrupting Core.
This core upgrades your cloak.

It seems that it upgrades Sanity reduction every second upgrade and Corruption Resistance in between. The ilvl is increased by 2 every time.

Max level on cloak is 15.

Level	Gear ilvl	Corrupt Resistance	Sanity Reduction
At Start	470	5	5%
1^st upgrade	472	12	No change
2^nd upgrade	474	No change	10%
3^rd upgrade	476	20	No change
4th upgrade	478	No change	25%

Titanic Research Archive

This is a talent tree machine that MOTHER helps you construct.

With this, you can add points into different powers that keeps down your sanity.

You add points with the new currency “Corrupted Memento”.

Vision of N´Zoth

This is a smaller scenario that is in the same zone as the Assault.

There are two Assaults up every day, one in Uldum and one in Vale of Eternal Blossom.

One of these two Assaults will always be the Black Empire, where this vision scenario will be.

You will know which zone of Vale of Eternal Blossom and Uldum that has the Vision Scenario by checking the map. Look for the pillar with an eye.

Your task is to finish of the quest that you get outside the entrance to the vision and also kill as many mobs as you can inside the vision and loot them. You will need the currency.
