Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

I'd kill for a Keebler Elf adjective.

i mean, refugees had to pick up new skills and earn for a living in Stormwind. why not cookies? this is completely lore-friendly.
Bobby could make a buck from product placement, writers could make a powerful statement about the effects of unbridled capitalism and racism on underprivileged populations. it's a win-win.

Misspoke. They were released for the Blizzcon. They were literally given to you if you bought the Blizzcon ticket.

Yeah, we knew BlizzCon was coming. We had no idea what the next expansion would be. Those mounts were a hint to what the next expansion was going to be.

Why wouldn't they be?

Definitely not canon.

Those mounts are obviously canon, like @Lady Atia said they are used in game during the Battle of Darkshore.

Link to the NPC flying those mounts.

And the Skychaser?

[therumblings]

And the Skychaser?

I couldn't find that one, but the interceptor is obviously canon and has no reason to not be.

Well the Interceptor looks like an actual vehicle that can be piloted in lore, the Skychaser does not. It looks like one of those motorized cars for children. So I can buy the notion that one mount is lore based while the other was not, and was simply designed to have an Alliance equivalent to the Horde mount.

The Skychaser looks like a Fischer Price toy. I wouldn't choose to have it show up either.

Couldn't agree more.

That cooking profession will be worth leveling now.

wym? Cooking is one of the few professions that is always useful for leveling on at least you main character. You get plenty of mats par fish from just doing regular daily content (even more if you play alts) and mats can be got through other currencies or mission tables. And it is useful/required in all forms of endgame PvE content (not sure about pvp as I dont do it). Sure you can just buy the food but its much cheaper if you just level or craft even if you end up having to buy the fish

It's still a fun and useful prof but I haven't bothered. I prioritize roleplay, so chef's hat is the only thing I'd get out of it.

Holy shit the Tinker Worshipper is blaspheming a Gnomish marvel.

Dude if my Skychaser isn't a canon-appropriate mount, your fucking Dragon/Demon Soul/Azerite Titan-Mech-God Tinker fantasies are OUT son.

As if the Gnomish mounts we've seen from Ulduar and Mechagon aren't more wacky than the Skychaser, which is at worst- a cumbersomely overdesigned (in-world that is) mechanical wonder, like the Turbo Charged Flying Machine, but with Wood-plating.

I'd say it's more realistic than the ACTUAL Alliance Skyships to say the least, caricatured as it is.

I hope you're not talking about this;



The design of this runs circles around that god-awful Skychaser mount. The Steamscale is a real beauty, which is why I made it my team's namesake. It is the perfect blend of draconic and mechanical themes.

Could it be canon? Definitely a possibility.

[Archmage Xaxxas]

NO. NOBODTY FUCKING IS

It's not like you're god damn PAID to be this obnoxious so what the fuck gives

I mean seriously, stop spamming these forums with the same 6 images

Man who hurt you?

You literally said that rogues got their skill concepts from blademasters and even creeps but go ahead and pretend ignorance.

Yes, in response to someone asking me where the Rogue got their abilities from in WC3.

[Marlamin]

In case of endlessly bickering about the same thing, ignore lists exist, people. Get a grip.

I asked it in hopes you would realize the double-logic you were using: You kept insisting that they can't add bards because they can't create a new class by pulling pre-existing W3 abilities into a new class when clearly they can. IE. Rogues. There are still a lot of W3 abilities unaccounted for.

I hate how toxic the WoW community has become and continues to be over time. It’s a video game. We literally have like 24 days until the official announcement. A real “leak” may or may not happen; enjoy the fun and be kind!

[AOL Instant Messenger]

But if I abandon an argument instead of trying to get the last word, that means I am wrong and therefore stupid and a bad person! Don't you understand the obvious truth that not arguing = people might leave without feeling like you owned them = you're wrong and bad and stupid?

I remember at the end of MoP people were excited for a potential Timewarder class based on the NPCs on the Timeless Isle. That would have been an original concept!

https://www.mmo-champion.com/threads...t-to-be-in-WoD

I always did find it oddly specific that there were three subsets of them. You know, I almost wonder if they were intended as a class for WoD but they realized it would be too resource-intensive to make a new class three expansions in a row?
