Guide: Borrowed Power and Sanity Boosts in Revisited Horrific Visions
Revisited Horrific Visions brings back an upgraded version of the Titanic Research system from Battle for Azeroth, split into two key upgrade systems: the Hourglass of Horrific Visions and Tributes. These systems are designed to help players power up, survive, and thrive while navigating the challenging Horrific Visions.
Hourglass of Horrific Visions
TheHourglass of Horrific Visionsis an upgrade tree aimed at empowering players to better handle the challenges of Revisited Horrific Visions. It functions as a streamlined version of the old Titanic Research tree, focusing on survival and Sanity management.
How to Upgrade the Hourglass
To upgrade the Hourglass, you'll need a new currency called Echo of N'Zoth, which can be obtained by trading Displaced Corrupted MementoswithAugermuin Dornogal. However, note that upgrades are time-gated, and you'll only be able to acquire a limited number of Echoes per week. It will take at least three weeks to fully upgrade your tree.
