    We already know all of the dungeons tho. Would be cool if blizz added an unexpected extra, but thats a pretty big deviation from the standard 1 level up & 1 max level dungeon in each zone theyve been doing for a couple xpacs now.

    In that case, Dalaran delve? Dalaran is pretty small compared to modern dungeons, so maybe Dalaran can just be part of that dungeon, like the Everbloom. Are delves just MoP scenarios? The world may never know.

    Haha ¡ Good one ¡

    If Delves are just that I will be very angry.

    Hope that we get much more info about them today ¡¡ I think that Delves could be a big hit ¡¡

    But yes, a pre-patch Delve would be very welcomed indeed. In Dalaran or in any other place. I just want to try the system.
    Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.

    We do know.

    Delves are outdoor dungeons you organically walk into, but more floor-based.

    Delves are part of the game world and you just step inside to do the delve with zoning technology. They have nothing to do with Dalaran.
    I no longer reply to quotations beyond if you're asking a genuine question or have a non-confrontational stance.

    Nihil.

    Last time I checked Dalaran was part of the game world.

    I don't think it's impractical for a delve to involve a magic portal, and if not they're really limiting the potential of delve content. We do know that even though they're "outdoor content" they're also instanced for groups.

    "zoning technology" are just instances with a hidden load screen.

    I mean, it doesn't matter, we literally know all the Delves.

    Hot take: The stuff that I assume is Isle of Dorn in those looks bland AF. Mostly gray rock with a little bit of green in the grass and trees. And the new hub city feels like Valdrakken in that its big towering gray structures again. The other zones look dope tho.

    Granted it also looks the most unfinished of the zones from the leak.

    They also said that wasn't the full list of delves. Only a preview selection.

    Also, if they start using the word Mycomancer when Fungalmancer is already an established term for mushroom magic I will spit.

    Yeah, I did notice the similarity to Valdrakken. Intentional because titans, but still.

    I do like the big holes you can jump into.

    Delves are going to be super lame, like torghast without powers. For solo content only hard boss fights like mage tower works. Clearing trash corridors solo is boring as heck. The only way it could work is in a class-less plunderstorm style action-combat mode where all the abilities are skillshots.

    Don't forget its also an escort mission....oh dear god

    For reals, I'd have to see them in action to decide. It being both a minigame with multiple difficulty levels & having it scale for 1 to 5 people means the difficulty curve is going to be wild to balance.

    Yeah wish they'd gotten creative and had Isle of Dorn be rich in some new kind of rock or something that would give them an excuse to make the earthen/dwarf architecture out of something other than normal looking stone. Imagine if all the Isle of Dorn buildings were like an amber color or a deep blue or something. Could tie it in with professions similar to saronite in wrath.

    Clearly a placeholder for something but one of the pictures shows several male Tauren (in their underwear) A-posing in a forest with a few of the Xuen statues with them. Wonder what that will result in eventually.

    They said there will be 13 delves. this image has 12. The last one was supposed to be something secret or spoilery to mention yet.
