Conspiracy theory - Covenant Lock BS was always planned to be changed in 1.5 to pretend that they are giving us content so they can stall for time.

They absolutely never wanted people to to progress quickly even after their first max lvl, and its visible in every aspect of this game. Pretending it is alt friendly. Now they get to pretend to sell use the play through of the other order halls.Same with leveling in Tor. If it happens it was avoided not because "endgame content" but because it's something they just wanted us to be able to start farming later.As far as I have seen. There is nothing worth subbing for 1.5
