Battle for Azeroth Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Drekmar]

Or that plotline never happened and we're back to BFA.

Theres AU draenor, therefore AU azeroth exists in that AU timeline.

Sure, but it's never mentioned or implied to be connected to Draenor, so it doesn't matter.

[SunspotAnims]

There's a couple of models from Wowhead that I haven't seen here yet.

Armored Kul Tiran:



Lady Ashvane:

Looks like wowhead dug up a Gorgrong instance map that basically confirms Draenor Orcs means AU Draenor, not Mag'har.

It didnt get connected becuase of Garrosh and his interference, it's still there with Medivh and his Sargy soul.

Tl;dr shitty writing when it comes to AU, hopefully the orcs will be Mag'hars and not AU orcs. One can hope that blizzard doesn't fuck with AU again and picks OL instead.

What do you mean? It's not shitty writing because it doesn't matter. Orcs are not connected to Azeroth until Medivh helps them get there. They aren't prophecised to go there or anything.

[Caerule]

I do have to admit that that void guy's color pattern resembles the Infinite Dragonflight a lot. More clues..

Zul looks epic. And yes, his posture isn't Zandalari. But as he looks grey and has giant tusks, I think we can assume he's supposed to be old, and have a bent back as a result.

Maybe Hellscream loyalists. I would like to see them marching, holding Garrosh reliquary like some Bretonnia pilgrim. Living only to spread teachings of their deceased master. Zealot mercenaries more or less. Zealot mercenaries who understand benefits of mortification of the flesh, self flagellation and such noble actions. Their home would be heart of the battle itself.

[Alanar]

So, whos King Dazar?
He looks interesting.

New mount :Tomb Stalker
The favored companion of Zandalari Kings, these fierce beasts are mummified and buried with their masters, so they may carry them through the afterlife.

Which means that AU Medivh never got killed and he has Sargeras inside him.

First Zandalari king, Zul is trying to raise him in the Atal'Dazar dungeon

Necromancy or Bwsonbi or whatever related stuff?

[Jastall]

I'm wondering how that hat stays on. Rastakhan I can barely buy, since he has straight posture and if he doesn't turn his head too quickly the hat probably would stay on. But Zul looks like he would fall on his face due to that hat.

It's better not to question the physics of equipment in Warcraft, else you start wondering why everyone straps massive shoulder armor on or how they swing around weapons heavier than themselves.

Lady Ashvane:

For some reason I feel like this confirms that Kul'tiran humans aren't going to be the allied races, but thin humans are

[Drekmar]

Neither, just a puppet to replace Rastakhan.

Now I know whyu they added undead texture for that BFA Collectors edition mount. Lol Blizzard

[Chickat]

Zul is a prick. Badass, but prick nonetheless.

Why do custom NPC models confirm they aren't gonig to be allied races even though a reliable leaker already confirmed they will be?

[Hitei]

One would assume that the seed of Sargeras would have been rendered inert when the main body was jailed.

Which main body, considering he doesn't origin in twisting nether then he was 'born' in every timeline separately.

His prediction abilities are top notch. Really likeable fella, too bad he wants us dead.
