take a piss somewhere to mark their territory.

Well now we know how player housing works for Worgen players!

Blizzard! Make this happen!

I'm expecting it to be a Chromatic drakonid, and for the race and class to be locked to each other, with the faction choice purely for gameplay purposes like Battlegrounds (Or a dragon and the race choice is simply the body illusion).

That way the tank spec can be inspired by the Black flight, a ranged DPS spec can be Blue and Bronze, and a healer spec can be Red and Green.

Alternatively, the tank can be Bronze and then a melee spec can be Black.

I wouldn't expect much representation from the "special" flights, except for perhaps some talent or appearance customisation choices.

If it's a race/class locked, I'd rather it be an actual dragon. A draconid would work as a normal race.

I think healer would actually make more sense as Red and Bronze to me finally giving us the chronomancer healer. When in red form you'd focus on AoE and throughput while in Bronze form you'd be mostly absorbs

Well now Blizz has no choice but to add player housing, or else this wonderful idea would never come to fruition.

You can literally do what every tabletop does, make those the basics of the Dragon form, which can be the one racial you have. It's not the first time it happened either. Worgen have a human and a Worgen form but you don't see them having the ability to claw or bite or take a piss somewhere to mark their territory.

Worgen absolutely should get a unique class skin for fury warrior that just lets them do all the warrior does but with claws and fangs.

They can sort of do this with some fist weapons but I agree, being able to use your claws as a Worgen should have been a thing over a decade ago.

A skin that turn fury warriors into furry warriors

Jokes aside, monks fight with their hands. Monk animations already exist for worgen. It is such a no brainer to let them be monks.

Clearly. There is no other choice.

I just don't see monks as fighting with fury of the beast. I get that the animations fit but the theme, not so much. Though maybe a spec skin for Windwalker that makes them chosen of Goldrinn.

Two reasons for Red and Green in my eyes; the first is the thematic Life link between the two, especially with the sister bond between Alexstrasza and Ysera, and the second is the Reds' fire would help set the healer spec apart from Resto Druid.

Just think of all the warcraft omegaverse fanfics that woulc create!

Oh I am absolutely on board with the Red. But I don't think the Green is about healing, they are more about nature magic. Sleep, poison, summoning vines.

That was before Blizzard decided that everything green should be tied to restorative magic and turn everything ED related into a happy dappy fairy forest tho.

[Vakir]

So this makes it legit ??

I mean, I'd say it's 99.9% likely to be so?

Oh God. Cursed. Super cursed. Nope.

[Revamp Man]

The cinematic leak thread kinda sounds possible and something I would like lol

You could also have all five flights represented in each spec, but I don't know if Blizzard would want to go down that route, because even a single dragon character would be a multi-coloured explosion.

[LalaGamer]

The cross faction gameplay is a compromise, and it specifically is just the "heroes of the Horde and Alliance" doing the cooperation. Not the two factions themselves.

Blizzard said they are going to allow groups together, not true ??

If Blizzard gave Anduin a new model in 9.2.5, then you threw him out of story early, 9.2.5 a lot of encrypted stuff.

Said this before, but it's probably just a model with simple priest clothing since he's stepping down from the throne for now, and no longer in a war.

500 pages in 4 weeks? Come on.

Man we came a long way from last month, here's hoping to hitting at least 2100 before the announcement, maybe 2500 if we're lucky Nothing can stop us with the thread energy!

[ercarp]

What I'm eager to know is if one or more of these guys will show up on Dragonflight.

Chromatus, ehh, doubt it. I have a feeling Blizzard doesn't even remember he exists.

Murozond was already dealt with so him appearing now makes no sense.

Galakrond is the most likely imo, but I wonder if he's thematically a bit too closely tied to Death, given that we're just wrapping up an expansion with the same theme.
