    Blizzard employee confirms old world focus and 11.0 as being Light/Void or equivalent. Good call from you guys.
    Dickmann's Law: As a discussion on the Lore forums becomes longer, the probability of the topic derailing to become about Sylvanas approaches 1.

    Tinkers will be the next Class confirmed.

    There was suspicious activity going on around that time when everyone thought the new expansion was going to be announced, multiple alt accounts got made to post about fake leaks, I'm calling bullshit on this OP being authentic and just using an alt account instead of his main mmoc account.

    Chromatus is much more than that. It nearly took down the Ysera+Kalecgos+Alexstrasza on its own, had Nozdormu and the dragonflight not intervened, they'd all be dead.

    I think you are mistaking Chromatus for Chromaggus.

    Refer back to my previous comment, I answered with an edit. You're talking about Chromaggus.

    Isn't Chromatus only mentioned in novels? Not that it matters much since Jailer established Blizzard can just ass-pull new villains anyway.

    This is Chromatus:
    Who was he? Was he the one that got killed in that shitty short story about the aspects origins?

    Chromatus is an intelligent 5 headed chromatic dragon, infused with the power of each Flight.
    It took a combined effort of all Aspects to defeat him, and Chromatus would've killed them if Nozdormu didn't prophesize and call for a strategic retreat when they faced him.

    But sure, 'just a dead "core hound" '.

    But the Jailer was there from the beginning. We just didn't know

    I'm not buying into the written leak either, but just to play devil's advocate, isn't it possible that someone here had insider information but made a burner account to post about it instead of risking their public reputation and identity?

    Just because it was an alt account, that doesn't 100% confirm it as fake imo. But you make a good point.

    As for the MMOchamp leak of the same title, I hope it's fake as it has atrocious ideas with micro classes, cheap class skins, and "Chromatus" sounding like a villain that makes Zovaal seem like award-winning writing.
    I don't believe it's meant to be box art, I think it's just the key art for the promotional period.

    What is very interesting is the 9.2.5 PTR Blood Elf questline does you have you empowering a polearm, which ends with you unlocking it for a transmog.

    Also Chromatus is an established, existing character from almost a decade ago, it is not even close to Zovaal.

    Yes, their story was mostly developped in a novel, it was allegedly supposed to be a boss for Dragon Soul, but it was too complicated to animate and was replaced by lame-ass Ultraxion

    Don't blame them, they mistook Chromatus with Chromaggus, easy mistake

    It definitely could still be real, but in my opinion the factors of it potentially being fake convince me it's BS.
