I too like the pine cone eggs :P

Orcs had no beards or any hair on their whole body in the old lore, except for the hair growing on the top of their head. So MU Groms lower jaw was definitely tattooed black.

That's just wrong though. Orcs always had beard, just not moustaches - look at the old Metzen drawings of Gul'dan or Kilrogg in the wc2 manual.

what they didn't had was eyebrows, only thrall cause he defy logic

And Gul'dan too, sometimes...

Lore question about the Lich King's armor. Arthas only took the helmet? Where did the other armor parts go?

Pretty sure he wears them as well, on top of his regular Death Knight armor? We need some model comparisons!

[plz delete account]

it's so tempting to look at new models, animation etc
i won't cuz its a massive spoiler, we know and have seen everything except icons, animations and models

if you gonna fap at models now, you won't enjoy the game as much

1. Your a iosdeveloper. Opinion doesn't matter here in a PC-Gaming forum.
2. Fapping at models is literally the only things we can do until Blizzcon.

Are we seeing the same grom?

If new Grom model looks like simple Grunt, then.. I guess Sylvanas in WoW looks like Harry Potter.

But i agree with some that say Rexxar needs to get a tad bigger, but i would like to see him in the middle of normal units first.

watch how he is fighting, like simple grunt, no super movement like he should be, an expert of battles, here he fights like newbie. Also his face, you wouldent know if thats grom if he didnt had that axe of his.

Meh, lost interest when I saw that the animations are crappy because Blizzard could only update the visuals, not the game engine as well, so the animations are choppy and still at the 2003 level.

This is a extremely old build; we have no idea if Blizzard actually intends to abandon the visual effect animations.

Actually they confirmed back last Blizzcon that engine limitations prevented them from going too far with improving the animations.

Yeah, that's true, but it's unlike Blizzard to completely abandon them. they'll try to touch up what they can.

Yup...I hope for more multiplayer unit skins like Sc2.
I want things like the High elf versions of the Priest/Sorceress, High elf archmage, High elf buildings, etc.

Nah, when i saw his datamined model i already knew it was Grom.

You can see exactly in the videos that he swings his Gorehowl differently and with more force and also holds it in another hand, his idle stance is also different.

I like his animations, but he needs another one for auto swinging, like he had in the original.

Not really. They're not even the same colors.
If you meant the scaled structure? That's just normal dragon egg according to the other millions fantasy sources...


GoT just made it more famous.

It hasn't been entirely consistent or canonically explained. In WC3, and now Reforged, it has a unique design with skeletal rib and skull designs, linked together with chains.



This is how it looks in WC3 without the Frozen Throne model.

In the tabletop RPG it was called the Plate of the Damned and was used to bind Ner'zhul's soul.

In some of the more recent TCG art they just put Arthas's DK armor in the Frozen Throne but that is probably just due to lack of reference art.

The armor hasn't been seen since Arthas became Lich King.

I guess Arthas tried to get rid of Ner'zhul.

He only wears the helmet. The armor he uses as the Lich King is identical to the armor he used as a Death Knight:

Speaking of something more technical - do we know the max resolution option for reforged?

Well we know how warcraft dragon eggs look, and its something that would cause internal bleeding with every laying.
