what class is be suited suited to communicating with Azeroth herself?

[Hiricine]

Hunters-- Azeroth is a hunter weapon

[Hugnomo]

I'd say either druids or shaman, but druids are more likely. The chronicles vol1 presents the hypothesis that the Dream was not created by Freya, but was instead manipulated by her as a way to connect to the world-soul, as in, the Dream is the world-soul's dreams, and that is why the Old Gods created the Emerald Nightmare - as a way to corrupt the world soul and create the dark titan they long for. So druids' actions in the Dream are a way to keep the world soul in a healthy state.

Shaman, on the other hand, use the element of Spirit, the fifth element, to commune with the other elements. And our world soul consumed much of this element on azeroth. Monks also use this same element.

[stomination]

Warlocks because they own another planet they can use as a translator, sure half of it's missing and it probably doesn't have a titan soul, but still!

Might as well use the BC planet!

[Lastlivingsoul]

that's really just a representation. that's not meant to be 100% accurate in that azeroth is the center of physical reality. it's just part of the universe, the one part we're familiar with.

azeroth's power is spirit. it's the most powerful of the elements and exists within all life. that's why azeroth is so strong, the planet was rich in spirit and she absorbed nearly all of it in her conception.

and yeah, i'd say druid would be the closest maybe.

Yes in Chronicle it does say she began with a high concentration of Spirit energy. That may have also been what attracted so many Old Gods to her. However she has had prolonged exposure to the Old Gods before the Titans finally found her. She has heard the darkness long enough to recognize its voice. She may have been a being of mostly spirit once but now she is something else.

(puts tinfoil hat on tighter)

It could be that the Old God's forsaw the Titans coming. They knew that one Nacent Titan would not be enough to end the eternal conflict with shadow alone. But ... if they could draw the attention of as many superior beings to heal and imbue the wounded planet with their power it would be stronger than them all combined in the end. The Titan's Arcane might, the strength of the Druid's Wild Gods, The Legion's Corruption, The Light of Elune and the Darkness of the Frozen Throne all flowing though Azeroth. The one thing these beings would not be able to heal is the Super Titans mind. So in the end that is what they(Yogg and the gang) ended up fighting for control of.

Azeroth may not have started out as a Nexus point for all realities of magic but thanks to constant intervention and multiple cataclysm she may be the Frankenstien's Monster of the Universe or the One true power that can act as Arbiter between the light and the Darkness. So in the end it is who SHE chooses to talk to. (If she is really the one doing the talking ...)

[Thalassian Bob]

If Azeroth's really a titan, a mage would probably be best suited to it.

[Grimfrost]

Shamans for sure, Druids for a little bit, maybe only the strongest druids as we do control nature and we are in touch with the wild gods but shamans are in connection with all the elements

[Hctaz]

I don't think it's a class thing but rather a race thing. It'll probably be a dwarf thing. Dwarves and gnomes evolved from titan creations.

[MikeBogina]

not a class, but I would imagine any Titanforged race would have a better chance of communing with her. Sargeras and Magni both being in the Titan family are the only ones to make contact(though Y'shaarj did... penetrate her)

Human, Orcs, Dwarves... gnomes im not too sure cause they were machines originally.

And a couple of non playable races.

[Deleted]

Magni Bronzebeard.

Except that he has been talking to N'Zoth .

N'Zoth talks to Magni about the world pillars.
Magni transfer the ideas to us.
We gather the pillars and unlock N'Zoth's prison.

Talking to the world-soul is best left to druids. (Otherwise she would not have transformed trolls into elfs who then became druids; the elfs would have become Shamans)

Well I think the dwarves would be the only race to be naturally able to. Orcs didn't come from Azeroth and they wouldn't be made with this in mind. The Dwarves came from the Earthen which were creatures that essentially communicated with the earth. The reason why Magni was able to communicate with Azeroth at all was because of his race's ancient ritual to commune with the world. Most other titanforged were metal or mechanical. Vrykul I think were both stone and metal but they weren't designed with earthly powers in mind. They, along with the Mogu, were designed to be warriors. I don't think they would have the capability for this sort of communication.

Well considering Orcs are now a Titan race, who are more efficient with communing with the "earth" than any other race, i'd say they outright beat the Dwarves who weren't shamans until recently.

With the other races, you'll never know till they try the same Titan Ritual, but as long as their ancestry is made from the earth, just like the Dwarves, should be the same.

[sheggaro]

Shamans, because the Titan is the elemental lord of spirit.

[FelPlague]

Considering the only mortal who managed to communicate with Azeroth is Magni, who is a warrior (mountain king, precisely) I would say that this feat has nothing to do with class or magical attunement. Maybe it was the race that is the factor, doubt it has anything to do with class/skill)

it was because they did a ritual that ment to have him talk to the elements to know what was wrong (incoming cataclysm) and he ended up becoming part of the planet

[Deleted]

Magni used a shamanic ritual to turn to diamond, becoming one with the land and going from King of Dwarves to King of Diamonds. Shaman commune with the world itself, not just the elementals, but the spirit of the world. There literally is no doubt about it, it's shaman. Druids commune with the wilds, with life, and the life of the world is also the world itself, but it's not Azeroth, but rather what makes Azeroth what it is, the Emerald Dream was either created or moulded by Freya either out of nothing or from the world-soul's own dream, Blizz left both possibilities open until they themselves can make a decision or they already have and they just want to see which one we prefer.

So, on a fully conscious level, Shaman are the VERY BEST suited to commune with the world-soul, dwarves possibly having a slight advantage as they are the descendants of titan creations. On a subconscious level, it's basically anyone who can walk the Emerald Dream which includes y'know... All night elves, all druids and some others.

Only the druids can navigate through the Emerald Dream in lore because they are trained to do so. Shamans commune with spirits which are numerous. Azeroth is not an elemental spirit. She is a titan. She was just so powerful that she absorbed spirit element almost completely.

It's also confirmed that the ED is connected to the world soul because the nightmare is the way to corrupt the world soul.

[Razion]

The branch of magics that are closest to the Titans as shown in chronicle are Earth, Arcane, and Order. Seeing as Arcane is the blood of the world, it stands to reason that you could extend that channel into the mind to commune with it. So I would say Arcane Mages, probably.

[Kokolums]

Warriors because while everyone is trying totalk to her, theyd just grab all the aggro and Azeroth would focus on them.

[Caerule]

If Azeroth were more awake, Shamans and Mages would definitely be the right way to go. If she'd be able to shape herself and freely wield her energies, those than can interact with her body, or understand her energy, would naturally have the best shot of setting up communication.

For now we're dealing with a dreaming infant however. The Druid that connects to the dreaming world should have the best chance.

Magni's process is unique, as it was a ritual to create a Speaker, and seemed to have invoked the energies of creation to reshape him in body and mind, connecting him to Azeroth. This sort of ascension would no doubt require powerful magic and elemental control. Maybe a combination of Shamans and Mages working together could come close to it? However, that is just speculation on my part.

If she is awake then anyone would be able to speak to her because titans should be capable of understanding mortal languages quickly or telepathy.
