Blizzard is considering adding a story mode system to World of Warcraft very similar to Final Fantasy‘s Duty System, with the main aim to make WoW’s older raids easier to solo. The plans come as The War Within gets its own “story” playlists.
The upcoming story mode in The War Within is a first for Blizzard. It will let player defeat the last boss of the raids solo, so players can still experience the whole storyline without forming a raid group or, as a last resort, pugging the raid. And, as reported by VG247, the developers hope that if there’s enough interest and feedback on this feature in The War Within, they can implement something similar to WoW‘s older raids too.
