Broken Shore is reminiscent of Tanaan Jungleand Timeless Isle, but its content is unlockedmore gradually. The zone also contains the Tomb of Sargeras raid and theCathedral of Eternal Night dungeon.

After speaking to Archmage Khadgar at Krasus Landing in Dalaran, you willbegin a scenario that serves as a prelude to the Armies of Legionfall and the BrokenShore. Once the scenario is completed, you will unlock Broken Shore World Questsand gain initial reputation with the Armies of Legionfall.

With Patch 7.2, Nethershards (the currency of the Legionpre-patch) are making a comeback. They are used to purchase variousitems fromthe the faction's quartermaster.

Nethershards can be earned mostly from Broken Shoreworld quests, invasions, the Sentinax, or looted from rare elitesand containers on the Broken Shore.

Deliverance Point will be your main foothold, where you will contribute Legionfall War Supplies (obtained mainly from Broken Shore World Questsand rare Elites) by batches of 100 in order to construct structures that grant various perks(including activating new content).Contributions are a cross-faction, region-wide effort.

As you can see, there are 3 buildings (Mage Tower, Command Center, andNether Disruptor). Each building has a permanent perk (i.e., a perk that is enabled for everyone)and a secondary random perk that changes every time the building is rebuilt. Inorder to benefit from the perks, players need to speak with Commander Chambersevery time a building is rebuilt.

Once a building is completed, the Legion will periodically attack it,eventually destroying it. Perks are disabled when the buildings are destroyed.There is a 1-day cooldown period before a destroyed building can be rebuilt.

The Deliverance Point building accumulation rate has been increased for all regions.The intended result is for buildings to complete at approximately the same rateas they did before Patch 7.3.(Source).
