The Ebon Blade's new Four Horsemen (massive spoilers)

[Deleted]

Tirion confirmed as a Horseman?

Jeez man, this exp is going to get real crazy

It's interesting that, according to the scenario titles, to get to tirion and raise him, we're going to beat down liadrin.

Not sure what to think about giving these mounts to NPC's in lore, even if they are the four hoursemen^^

But... they're my mounts, are they taking them from me?

Missed oppurtunity imo

[Romanthony]

With the Allaince broken shore Event being released now I can kind of see why Tirion Fordring might become the forth horseman now when he screams "The light will protect me" only to be zapped and burned alive, before having his life drained away, could make him feel like the light abandoned him or the likes

[Therougetitan]

Rein is the singular from word of the word Reins, so we're likely getting enough reins for all 4 in that mission: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/rein

Blizzard has always used reins for singular mounts though

That scene really got me. His voice actor was on point and that screaming. ; /

Doesn't the Ashbringer intro quest confirm that he actually survived this and is quite fond of the light itself?

Mount lore is so amazing! It's awesome Blizzard recognizes mounts as actual respectable pieces of lore even if players can ride them. I've always dreamed of Blizzard adding NPC awareness to player mounts like how the Kirin Tor in Dalaran acknowledge exalted players. You could fly past an NPC on a cloud serpent and they'd say something like "wow I've never seen that before!"

Paladins are gonna go apeshit over Tirion. We should really get to assault Acherus. We know exactly who wins in a fight between the LK and the Ashbringer

We're going to invade Acherus and purge Bovlar back into a Paladin.

[theun]

So the Death Knights will in fact storm the Paladin's chapel, fight their way through (and possibly killing other Paladins), beating down Liadrin and then snatch Tirion's body whilst it's basically still warm and they've not even finished mourning his death, and then insultingly leaving a simple note saying "Sorry, will return the body later" (Ok, I made the last bit up)
Wonder how awkward it would be later if a Horde DK does quests that has Liadrin present after this.

Which sounds quite weird.. She's after his corpse or something?

Any word on how he dies? How couldn't have the light empower him? I mean the Light did so at the Icecrown Citadel where the light doesn't exist almost

He dies in the broken shore chain for ashbringer, hes an old guy and he just gives out after being tortured by a demon.

[Vishy]

Btw is the DK hero essentially not just the Bolvar's champion but also his heir?

Pretty much.

Well... she could have been there to evade the holy ground to be attacked by the legion

Crap... Damm.. Can't wait to see that.

All this artifacts are making me doubt on which class I take into the exp

Well some artifact quests are quite nice, Destruction Warlocks work for Gul'dan, Paladins go after Balnazaar and Ashbringer, Death Knights get to deal with Arthas and so on. Some are pretty bland though, like Shadow Priest is 0 interest.

And some reuse the areas other artifacts use, which I find very annoying and a lack of imagination on blizzards side.

[Darth-Piekus]

Excuse me Gaidax but I love the Shadowpriest one. We basically imbue a powerful weapon with the powers of the Old Gods because in the end the Old Gods are the Legion's worst nightmare.
