Deathwing

[Vanyshh]

As in aspects other than his toenails? Do you mean perhaps toes and feet? Please elaborate, I do not understand.

Thank you!

trolololololol?

if not he means the dragon aspects you know Deathwing is the Black Aspect, Alexstraza is the Red, Malygos was the blue, Ysera is green, and Nozdormu is bronze.

he is bout the size of a very large football field in length, and bout 1000 feet in wingspan
he is probably roughly the same size as alexstrazas dragon form or slightly bigger, to give you a comparison

Larger, easily. And if by "very large football field" you mean "more than three times as long as a football field," then yes.

They have a picture of Alexstraza and Deathwing and Alex is definately bigger than him. :P

You're being confused by angles and lighting. Plus, artistic renderings like that are not very good metrics to go by. If anything that suggests they're roughly the same size, but comparing in-game models (Alexstrasza at the Wrathgate with Deathwing at Hyjal, or any of his zone strafing events), the size comparison leaves no question to whether Deathwing is larger or not.

In comparison you're about the size of his eye

[Aktavite]

How the hell we going to kill that guy when we can only attack his toe nails Its like a mouse looking up at the elephant and shouting "I'm gonna knack you in"

Perhaps we'll have a new piece of anatomy to talk about? Like your Achilles heel we'll have the Deathwing webbing. A small piece of skin between the toes, that led to the untimely demise of the Aspect of Death.



edit: better clarification of body parts....

Can't go by in-game sizes either...some models change size (ie: lich king) though-out the game. They just use whatever size is most appropriate for the area most of the time.

We shall climb in a cut and kill him from the inside out!!!!!! oh god please do this. Maybe even some stupid deathwing fight in his brain. He could just be the raid, once your inside him with several bosses he has eaten

you know what they say about dragons and humans with big chins..

[rockallnite]

529.78 feet long.
348.111, repeating of course, feet high.
1000.01 foot wingspan. It's over 1000.

[Thewiz]

How are we supposed to fight something like that? Some weird ass mechanic or will we fight him in his human form for most of the fight? Anyone has a view on this matter?

Another vehicle-fight probably

[Charblaze]

I could actually see something like this happening

hahaha, it makes no sense though, there is virtually no empty space inside the body of a creature, except the lungs...
I could see something like 5 raid members on alexstrasza, 5 on her other red dragonflight friends, etc.. and Melee dps get to jump on his back as we are flying through the air in a thunderstorm. WOULD BE EPIC.

In lore the size of deadwind pass, but due to game mechanics blizzard says he'll be smaller :-(

[druidicitus]

I think he'll be as big as 20 school busses.

[Deleted]

If there's anything movies like Godzilla have shown us, it's that big scary monsters can easily change size at will. He'll probably be a good sport and tune down to a more manageable tanking size.

Off topic: I'd like to have a deathwing mount.

*noob lands his drake in the field* *you land your gigantic deathwing mount next to noob* "ohai there"

[Dread Pirate Roberts]

Wow those r some great pics!!

[Vook]

He'll be that big, yet we'll still be able to tank him with our tiny shields and armor.

That is, unless it's going to be another dragon-vehicle fight like Malygos.
