Isn't that Kelthuzad?

certainly resembles him

[Rootsbum]

Im all in for covenants, but im curious about how mutch story we will miss when we pick one.
Ive finally managed to stick with one character, and now I have to play at least 4 to get the full story?

Cant wait for the panel.
I wonder if we get to see new class changes

[Chickat]

What seems really strange to me is that it doesn't seem like BFA story was needed at all.

Sylvanas didn't seem to need xalatath, azshara, or the death of n'zoth to get her death powers. I'm confused as to why, if her goal was to rip open the shadowlands, why didn't she just do that. Why make a pact with helya, azshara, go through all the effort for the blade, and free n'zoth? Seems like none of that was necessary.

To feed souls to the hungering darkness? Maybe the more souls she sent made her stronger too? Its quite possible she wouldn't be able to solo The Bolvar without a power boost.

[MyWholeLifeIsThunder]

Sylvanas is 100% THAT BITCH and I respect that.

The whole war was just a blender to fit more souls to the hungering darkness and make him, and her, more powerful. Powerful enough to defeat Bolvar and rip open the gate to the Shadowlands.

She has soared so high, the fall will be glorious.

Still, doesn't make BfA any less of a filler lol, we literally were just beasts who howl for honor and soldiers in tin plate who knew nothing.

Jeff calling out the gear treadmill.

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

I also don't see the helm staying destroyed. They might go along the lines of Endgame and have us piece it back together or venture across the shadowlands searching for answers from the dead on how to reforge it. Who knows

This. It will probably be the Heart of Azeroth artifact of the expansion as well

[Sondrelk]

how many do u need

40.
I did 3 HC bosses in the Eternal palace and got 8...


2 from the first 2 bosses and 6 from a random trash mob.
My guess is the echo drops are not designed around 8.3 content, because the droprate is all over the place.

[Raetary]

Man, i love Jeff and Aaron.


Anyways, wow panel up in 10 minutes.

"The fall will be glorious"

You mean when Thrall shows up with a gold coin and kills her?

[BarelyLegalBear]

new zones look great, Bastion especially. They better have something good up their sleeve for the panel though, that feature list is pretty thin.

Bastion looks phenomenal. Looking forward to the music, they never fail at that.

[Polybius]

Jeff calling out the gear treadmill.

Wait, did he really? Is that a sign?

[Chickat]

I'm sure that the panel is going to have some surprising info, but no new classes, races, and only 5 zones just sounds bad to me. So does the idea of class agnostic talent progression - how is that going to be a choice if it affects gameplay?

Legion only had 5 zones. WoD only had 5 at launch too. 5 is enough if they are content-rich.

[Foolicious]

Isn't that Kelthuzad?

It's probably mueh'zala or whatever the god of death is or azeroth herself.
Quite likely we will see kelthuzad after chronicles mentions his soul going to the shadowlands.

[MadamSerenity]

Anyone that has already pre-ordered, did it change the bnet art?

[Chickat]

An LFR boss dropped exactly ONE essence. Fun times.

How many essences do you need?

[Raetary]

It's gonna be fun interacting with Bolvar.

[Nagawithlegs]

There's NO way that Kel'thuzad isn't in the Naxxramas zone. That is HIS ZONE.

[Makabreska]

You had to play 12 to get all the story in Legion

But these stories were pretty insignificant. Hell, even first tier main story line with Pillars was all for nothing.

[Eurothemist]

10 MINUTES TILL WOW PANEL

and by the way, Some people were complaining on the wow forums about lack of information and a blue said " make sure u watch the upcoming wow panel "

i hope its good

[Shadochi]

So this Blizzcon, they show OW2 and D4 but they have no idea when they will be released. I mean cool, they look great. But that is just not good for the investors.

"Blizzard is pandering to investors with all the shit they do"

"What blizzard did isn't good for investors, they announced games without release dates"

Seems like the just can't get a break
