BfA Patch Speculation thread (8.3 and later).

[Foolicious]

So we just kill the old god and go on? Like what? They could have made an entire expansion on that guy in nyalotha.

I'm super curious to see in what place we end up instead next expansion tho. Shadowlands? Northrend? New Northrend? Something completly different?

Something completely different is always possible. The new dialogue suggests that sylvanas won't show up in 8.3. That leaves basically every death related storyline unfinished which makes something related to the shadowlands the most likely. With the dragons on the screen again we could have a nice b plot of alextrasza vs bolvar.
We also don't know what happens after the n'zoth fight and we still don't know what will happen to the wound and the sword in silithus. Or the elementals, helya and all the races that collect azerite. Whats with his body? His visible part above sea level is about twice the size of nazjatar, the crucible of storms is a part of him. Do we just let him rot? No one seems to be concerned.

I personally wouldn't rule out a black empire expansion yet. N'zoth tested our strenght, instigated stuff for millenia, let us enter his domain and then just dies? And suddenly everyone is falling in love taking some time off, starts gardening, does their laundry? I don't buy that.

Please let me hope this eliminates the possibility of lightforged undead on the Alliance.

:V

Well, so far she's the only Light based undead on the entire planet, and there have been no signs of more being created, so the entire idea might just be a pipedream.

Gallywix is confirmed out of the horde, fled with the Sylvanus inner circle, Gazlowe is the new trade prince of the Bilgewater too

this support a bit my theory that new starting areas are coming and maybe the desired world revamp too.

[Life-Binder]

Sylvanas-Azshara-Gallywix faction please

maybe throw in evil Bolvar too

Gazlowe the big G as the Goblin Leader, Mekkatorque as the King of all Gnomes and the High Tinker.

Factions removal, world revamp, level squish, TINKERS?!

[Sarethion]

It wouldn't make things worse. She can no longer be angry at him for lying. It's not an excuse, either. He did promise that.
And i don't see why it has to be Anduin that tells her, either. Maybe it would even be better if Jaina breaks the news to her.

1. You're trying to apply logic to a mostly emotional situation - yes, logically Anduin would have had a perfectly valid reason not to tell Taelia and she could eventually see that and forgive him, but at first she would have definetely responded emotionally. And learning that your father not only lives, but is a "monster" is bound to trigger some pretty serious emotions, especially if you combine it with emotions coming from being lied to.

2. Why Anduin? Because he was the one to tell Taelia that once she visists him in Stormwind, he will tell her about her father.

[George Costanza]

Gallywix was the last real Goblin, and the best goblin they should have kept.

Jesus fucking christ blizzard you sure love destroying the horde.

9.0 is set up to be 50 times worse than BFAs lore is. and i am not even counting the plotholes on this.

hold ya horses, the factions are not going to be removed, just not in war

world revamp is high possible

tinker i would go 50%, we need more hints to get more conclusions.

[Shoggoth]

Sylvanas-Azshara-Gallywix faction please

maybe throw in evil Bolvar too

If only...

[George Costanza]

And yet plenty of people insisted it was a faction war expansion anyway.

Yeah but people can take a look at china and call it a democracy too.

i would not say he was the last real goblin, he was the "extreme" of goblins, he was just a greedy piece of shit who did nothing

goblins besides being greedy are clever, intelligent, ingenious, cunning, they build machines and weapons like beasts, gallywix never did that, Gazlowe actually can work thinking in the money and but was clever and ingenious building his things, always thinking about profit and inventions

Also, he help to build orgrimmar, he was a thing since warcraft 3, the guy had a long story within the horde more than Gallywix.

Seems like 8.3 is comedy patch full of jokes :
1) Mechagnomes (diaper race, without money on full-body-modification)
2) Pandaren Death Knight
3) Calia leader of Forsaken
4) N'Zoth low IQ monster

[Pebrocks The Warlock]

I don't get the hate for Calia being the leader. The Forsaken are basically her people.

[Aeluron Lightsong]

Calia being leader of the Forsaken is not crazy and never will be. She is technically by all accounts the heir to Lordaeron weather you like it or not. Doesn't matter if she was human b4 once before. That didn't stop the Forsaken being on the Horde. N'zoth is not a low IQ monster, we still don't entirely know what happens at the end of 8.3 so lets hold on. I get its easy to rage but chill.

[cocomen2]

Even if i play Forsaken, i still getting pain just by looking at mechagnomes. (SAVE THEIR HANDS MEDIC)

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

I don't get the hate for Calia being the leader. The Forsaken are basically her people.

"She's not Sylvanas" pretty much.

[Shoggoth]

I don't get the hate for Calia being the leader. The Forsaken are basically her people.

Her relationship with the Light, If I had to guess. If she was a normal forsaken nobody would complain as much.

Pipenightmare. I think only a handful of people want them as an AR.

[Pebrocks The Warlock]

Sounds like Chen is back somewhat.
