Massive changes that players since long wished for are coming to players' Covenant system WoTLK Gold, which includes the widely disdainful Conduit Energy system. Blizzard is removing Conduit Energy completely, writing in a post on the forum that the system did not run as smoothly as the game's creator would have hoped.
"We should have taken note of community feedback and taken a new direction a year ago," the post reads. "A majority of players largely avoid the system and do not feel aroused by it while the minority who want to take part in different content types competitively feel constrained by it. This all adds up to a negative experience. Conduit Energy isn't really making the game better in any way that is noticeable We're therefore removing the system completely."

This change is especially significant in that Blizzard at the beginning of Shadowlands made a huge deal of how significant the player's decision to choose a Covenant would be, even going into the extreme of punishing players who choose to swap to a different Covenant. With patch 9.1.5 players will be able to change their Covenants to the heart in no way whatsoever, allowing for more exploring different Covenants without feeling bound to a certain path.
All of this will be coming together with a range of other changes, including the introduction of brand new character creation options ahead of time legendary item recycling, Legion timewalking, streamlined unlock requirements for a lot of these games' Allied Races, and more.
