8.3 soon™

[Nyel]

Amazing find buddy!

I'm 99% sure it's 8.3 PTR or some sort of big-ass announcement.

Thank you for this info

430 hours is 18 days. That's 25th October, one week before Blizzcon. Don't know what should happen by then, seems way too late for a 8.3 announcement in my opinion.

Almost like you put your business out in a forum of discussion or something. In a rather OT manner even.

Why wouldn't we defeat N'zoth. What exactly makes him special when every other Old God was dealt with in a mid content patch?

He is released
He is 100%
He is not restrained
He has access to every army of the OG

Pretty sure the timer thing is just coincidence like in Legion.

How are they going to announce a new expansion already when we still have a whole patch coming???? Story of BFA isnt even finished?

Exactly like the Cata announcement?

And there it is Visions of N'zoth

New Allied Races - Mechagnomes for the Alliance, Vulpera for the Horde
Auction House revamp, including favoriting items and making shopping lists.
Worgen and Goblin Heritage Armor
Ny'alotha is a 12 boss raid with N'Zoth as the final boss
Challenges inspired by the Mage Tower in Legion, designed for 1-5 players, to clear alternate visions of Orgrimmar and Stormwind. Wrathion will help you, and you'll power up a legendary cloak to improve your defenses against the Old Gods.
Assaults by N'Zoth Minions on Titan Facilities - Uldum and Vale of Eternal Blossoms. The Vale has finally been cleansed and restored to its original MoP appearance!
With all the assaults on Titan facilities, the Titanforged system may be replaced by something new!
New Mythic+ Affix to reflect N'Zoth - Corrupted. There are Black Empire obelisks that pull you into an alternate reality, and then port you out in a new location.
8.3 PTR likely going live later today!

Brace yourself folks! The goalposts are about to move so much that it may trigger earthquakes.

I said 8.3 won't be a massive content patch (like 7.3) or contain a huge raid (SoO, ToT style, +10 bosses). They had their "biggest patch of the expansion" already with 8.2, I doubt 8.3 will have a completely new zone or a raid that has more than 10 bosses.

Yes, please quote and correct me on that if datamining proves me wrong. I even summarized it for you so you can use this post directly. If I'm wrong I'll gladly admit it.

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
NEW PATCH HAS A FEW NEW ZONES
12 BOSS RAID
TONS OF NEW SYSTEMS
NEW ALLIED RACES AND HERITAGE ARMOR

Here, I'll quote myself from the other thread:

Yes, I'll admit it: I was wrong, 8.3 is a huge patch and the Nyalotha raid is massive. I was wrong with my pessimistic 8.3 predictions and I have no problem to admit it.

Yet I am disappointed that Nyalotha will never be a zone and we're finishing off N'zoth.

Still no new zones as I predicted. The raid is massive though.

"no new zones" did you forget nyalotha? we go there boi, outside the raid too, although its somewhat small.
also a remade stormwind, org, and entirely remade vale of eternal blossoms and uldum?

Ny'alotha is everywhere. It's through a thin veil all throughout Azeroth.

The 8.3 Announcement either happens this week or it is all being saved for Blizzcon, IMO.

Legion was one expansion ago. So ever since one expansion ago really isn't a big deal. Tanaan was from WoD which was the expansion prior to legion. Even then two expansions ago isn't a big deal. However we have had small quest zones with reputation, rewards, quests, and mobs since Burning Crusade. If you are going to claim a copy and paste with generic stuff then at least go all the way back to the source.

That doesn't even get into that there is nothing wrong with copy and pasting what works.

I meant that part for the reputation. Tanaan was the first world quest-y slower grindy thing (which was a huge upgrade from nothing or mob grind that wod has had), Legion just continued on it with full on wq etc.

Maybe check the front page?

You missed the boat just now. Check the front page.

World quests were added into the game in Legion. Tanaan was part of WoD. It featured daily quests. Just like we have had for many expansions. WoD and past expansions were also not "nothing or mob grind".

Ny'alotha was the friends we made along the way.

Wod, specifically Tanaan has had world quests. They were called "bonus objectives", but essentially they were the first iteration of world quests we saw from Legion. They had the little icon and the weird noise upon arrival and everything if I remember correctly.

Bonus objectives are not world quests and were part of the questing experience. They were not limited to Tanaan and were in all zones of WoD. You should stop before you make an even bigger fool by claiming something that is not.

i liked chromie scenario, visions lookes like merging of mage tower and chromie scenario, hopefully they will give awesome transmog items just like mage tower did
