9.0 General Discussion

2 expansions with Azeroth in the name in a row ? Nope.

It will then get followed up by Azeroth of Azeroth, and the ultimate expansion, Azeroth Azeroth Azeroth.

Dragons could carry it

You have lich King vs red flight
Bronze dealing with infinite
Green dealing with nightmare and the possibility of it's new leader being a tyrant
Black rebuilding and dealing with remaining twilight
Blue handling the scattered members and possibly an inner power struggle

Lich King is still death in my book...

[Pheraz]

I think it's rather voidy maybe plus undead. But not death without void. No way.

[ATZenith]

Not gonna lie, Ashes of Azeroth roles off the tongue

Okay???

Are the red dragons still dragons??

[Khaza-R]

I think all the leaks are off-base tbh.

Seeing how Blizzard usually draws influence from their other games I legit think they trying to bring back the Scourge and Sentienls. Not necessarily as gameplay factions but definitely strongly into the story elements

[Revamp Man]

Fake fake fake.

Every time I see someone say "no more faction split" I wonder if they paid any attention to the conversation between anduin and saurfang

Maybe for a novel, but I seriously doubt we'll have another expansion with "Azeroth" in it back-to-back.

ashes of azeroth
world revamp after failed re-origination
one map with old expansions in cot
no more alliance or horde
talent trees return as new grind
sylvanas wants helm of domination
wrathion seeks power of prime aspect
tyrande after new immortality for night elves

Tyrande is after revenge not immortality. And the usual reorigination problem. The rest I can still see.

Fake, though.

[Chickat]

We all know Paula Deen would be excited

What happened to them?

[Varolyn]

Tbh, while I'm not putting any real stock to it, that Ashes of Azeroth description is actually similar to the BFA leak description. Both are brief and concise, and only offer very general descriptions on the main feature. But in reality, I still think it's too early for a leak. The BFA leak came maybe a week before that blizzcon, and it may have been 5 days. It would take too long to dig up though.

I mean we've been reposting Jericho's leak which is the exact same format. Monkey see monkey do.

I'm sorry if I'm out of the loop, but what is Jericho's leak? There has been so many blatantly fake leaks that I don't really click on those threads anymore, but I do want to see what Y2J has "leaked" for wow.

[Sharby]

The biggest problem with Dragon stuff is that they literally are always losing or dying.


I don't think we've ever seen the Dragonflights ever have the upperhand, which makes them absolutely worthless as allies and lame ass plot points since they're gonna' need our help AGAIN.

That is why we need to power them up again

Jericho's leak was the true leak of Legion.

Isn't this the case for every ally? We had to rescue the titans because they needed our help. Helping worthless allies is what we do on a daylie basis.

it don't rly mean there will be no more factions, blizzard would not be that dumb do that

[Revamp Man]

Which is why every time I see a leak that says no more faction split I just kind of laugh because somewhere out there will be the real leak even if it's just a day before the announcement but it will be there and it will not have the faction merging together because that would be the single dumbest thing that ever came out of this studio besides when in legion a majority of class design was based on your artifact weapon

[razorpax]

I hope so. Because IMHO a death theme is to weak and too little to carry an expansion.

we start off with dragon focus
new ap system less passive
new dragon themed class
removal of TF
dragon isles
level squish
minor world revamp


this is what has been confirmed
