    Yeah, it's a pretty common occurence. Even the 7.3 forge for relics could be seen as a testbed for Azerite gear.

    There's also the possibility that they're introducing it in a more limited fashion now to ease people into a more general cross-faction groupability later. We'll just have to wait and see.

    Yep! Just going against the whole "I guess 10.0 is delayed because they added this now" thing that's already going around.

    IGN had an interview with Ion recently and posted this about the x-faction stuff, smells like it might have been an excerpt of a longer interview.

    I wonder if there's going to be any confusion when someone in a raid shouts for Hero.

    Small issue to be sure, heh.

    Dunno man, players calling it "lust" feel so damn weird to me.
    Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

    Most likely this or next week will be reveal of 9.2 date+schedule, maybe they have few NDA interviews in store for that occasion.

    Does anyone knows the source for the art in this one? It looks really nice.

    Pretty shocked they didn't even save CFP for a 9.2.5 reveal.

    Still very exciting stuff.

    But he does think it unlikely they'll ever do an "all-consuming faction conflict expansion again" like Battle for Azeroth.
    That's interesting, too. Guess they finally realised those storylines just aren't engaging.

    Does that say "Dawn Awakening" or is it "Dawn of Awakening" because "Dawn of Awakening" sounds like name Blizzard would come up with.


    The color scheme and screams Night Fae fan who wanted to use those color motifs you see in Ardenweald and surrounding the Night Fae... and nothing necessarily "new" in my opinion. But they took some time on the logo and it looks very cool nonetheless.


    Also... Pandeon of Life? First Born?


    The grammar in that sentence is really... off. Probably a fake leak from the guy who posted in Reddit (said he was from Belarus and English is bad) trying to make it sound official.

    You now remember that Alpha WoW had no fixed factions and you could join either through the reputation system.

    Oh yeah it does for me too, just thinking though of the time when we have people popping off about what term to use.

    We've already been over this a few pages ago, I believe.

    It's just too RPG for Theme Park MMO, sadly.

    Honestly, always wanted something like that if they were to remove the factions. Being able to join the Earthen Ring/Cenarion Circle/Argent Crusade and so forth or other factions entirely and tieing it all to 10.0 or be Alliance and go Traitor Mode and join the Horde and so forth. But, again its just a lot of work for a small percentile of the community (RP Community) so I get why they wouldn't do something like that.
    I no longer reply to quotations beyond if you're asking a genuine question or have a non-confrontational stance.
