Did I miss anything interesting in the past hundred pages or so? Any lingering mysteries or credible rumours? I don’t want to sift through all the back-and-forth I saw going on when I clicked back a few pages…

Eh, sometimes the interesting stuff is buried in the usual “discussions” people insist upon having. Worth asking!

On one hand you didn't have to do anything to unlock DHs, while allied races (Ren'dorei included) required you to complete certain story questlines and grind reputation with some Legion factions. On the other hand, the Ren'dorei (and other allied races) have multiple class choices, which means they offer a more varied game experience by default, while the DHs are just one class. They also had more unique and elaborate kinds of racial abilities that certainly intruiged most people. We also can't forget the allure of cosmetic sets in Heritage armour.

People have wanted Alliance Thalassian Elves and Villainous Dwarves as playable races for many years.
I would say that Allied races had far greater impact on the sales of their expansion than DHs for Legion.Last edited by Varodoc; 2022-02-20 at 12:16 PM.

I would have to agree given how ARs gave players 4 characters they needed to level to max to gain the full rewards (or 2 if you just play one faction), whereas DHs started at 2 level below the WoD maximum. Originally Posted by Varodoc

No, you didn’t. This thread has been going back and forth with the exact same arguments and topics in the last days that were discussed months ago. The only thing that might have happened is the release of a new PTR version for WoW which points to a new release being tested in the future (not related to Shadowlands).

So, as far as I can tell, these are our choices...
Dragon-focused Dragon Isles expansion with Tinkers
Void-focused K'aresh space expansion with Tinkers.
Life-focused expansion where we visit the other Zereths. With Tinkers.
Emerald Dream expansion finally happening. With Tinkers.
Azeroth world revamp electric boogaloo 2.0 with Tinkers.
Lightbound invasion expansion with Tinkers.
Some time travel expansion out of nowhere. With Tinkers.
That about sums it up?

You're missing Tinker-focused Undermine expansion with Dark Rangers, obviously. Originally Posted by Edward Wu

Not him obviously but I'll chime in with my extra zany alternative that I actually would enjoy: Originally Posted by Le Conceptuel

Chronicles really spoiled me with reading about this era.

Point is, these are just vague ideas, they could be both interesting or boring. You can bet that if it's Emerald Dream or Karesh it won't be what we imagine, it will be what we imagine in 1 zone + 3/4/5 more zones with new lore.
And I know people always shit on current content, but zones/instances are never weak point of WoW, usually reward system is.

No, that's the one that doesn't come with Tinkers. And every NPC is constantly going "...something's missing..." Originally Posted by Tartys
