Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

I know this is the new fun rage bait but the book makes it very clear hes her little brother insert and she doesn’t shut up about Nathanos both in the book and in SL.

They have been paired as opposing faction leaders since Legion so it makes sense to pair them up as new allies/friends now that they are taking a multi IRL year expansion break. Also gives Anduin something to do besides mope and cry.

The encrypted Anduin model in 9.2.5 is interesting though and I wonder if they just decided late they aren’t going through with the ending in the book, and Sylvanas’s penance makes more sense to be done by herself.

I figure the 9.2.5 model might be a quest where we go down and rap with Anduin for minute to learn why he’s down there.

I had no idea anyone else ever mentioned that, so, heh.

Sylvanas will find out the true power behind the Jailer (Spoiler alert, it's the Primus) and let us know so we can save the universe again.

Agree to disagree

Heavy is the crown, on that birb's head

You discovered to being neutral as pandas, You discovered a class that evoke..

I am glad how much the topic has come to life after our tips - great ideas. Today, however, I am giving you perhaps the last tip. You had a clue to your class, today maybe let's think about the race?
I didn't want it to be too easy, and I liked the "theredshirtguy" reaction so we'll pull the topic a little differently. The Warcraft community loves puzzles, hidden mounts, etc.
I'm not very good at puzzles, but I came up with something like this:



PS. code is not everything.

I think we have to solve the code first and then possibly combine it with Drek'thar, either him or something related to him, somehow. I am glad we were given something to do while waiting for the announcement

I'm with the guy who thinks the Draakyk could be Vrykul who settled on the Dragon Isles and have ascended/become empowered.

Would fit with my idea that there is going to be a big Vrykul presence on the Dragon Isles. Both in terms of Vrykul settlers who are now Dragon hunters and tamers(something they have an affinity for as seen on Northrend) and Odyn sending his Valarjar there to wage war on the Dragons.

Either way, I believe Dragon Isles will have a very big Vrykul presence and focus. Definitely a dungeon or two, possibly even a raid.

Something I realized reading this was that, for a Wrath themed expansion, there was very very little Vrykul stuff. Like we got most of the Wrath themes (the blood wing of ICC was turned into an entire zone) except for Vrykul, save for a small Drust invasion.

This made people think that Drust has been cut from the expansion... but what if the real reason for no Vrykul was because 10.0 is going to have a shitload of Vrykul and they didn’t want to spam them back to back?

It also means the Drust could be used and finished up in 10.0.

The question is: how do we solve that mess?

It’s been kind of a meme since the book implied they are working together in the Maw. I still think Anduin will leave before her and they aren’t exactly tied at the hip, he just feels obligated to help with the souls for a bit.

Or they are rewriting Anduins fate and will pretend that the armor guy was Garithos or Arthas 2 all along.

[therumblings]

The question is: how do we solve that mess?

Option A: Keep trying to randomly match letters, numbers, characters, etc, until we get a name resembling a race.

Option B: Hope redshirtguy posts about it to get everyone in the community on this

[cocomen2]

PS. code is not everything.

Orc Blademasters?) or Dark Kabolts?

[therumblings]

I think it's a safe bet it's dragon related, I doubt Drek'thar is representing anything other than a portion of the name, or a way to get to the portion of a name through some other hint related to him.

I agree with you... but I'm not finding any new ideas

[Hypester]

Honestly just watch it be Drek’thar sounds like Drak’something and that’s the only reason he’s on it.

We already got Drak but we’re missing letters or the spelling of the second half.

Or similar to the name change to Kul Tiras to make it sound more Vrykul, it could be Drak Something.

t h e d r a a k y k r a c e = the draak is race maybe?

Please don't be boring. You are better than this.

[Fartlas]

Since I am way too lazy to read all of the last 50 or so pages I skipped, where does this code come from exactly?

[therumblings]

Not a good puzzle solver though

[Karmak]

What are the possible combinatorics of "Drek'thar" ?
Drakethar?

The same person in this thread who has been posting cryptic leaks like the neutral race and evoker class.

So there's a distinct possibility it's pure bullshit?

As someone mentioned - how will you know that you guessed. I think that when one person will solve it, I will write back after some time (certainly before 19)

By the way, I thought that this picture would be a trivia .. On the other hand, looking deeper .. It can get more interesting.

I wrote back to one person why in this way - a guessing game - and not just pass it on .. Why?
I think the idea worked out great and some "responsible" could take it a bit, for example. Maybe there is a bit of sentiment here, until Blizzard was much more open - and openness and conversation once had a great impact on the game and the changes associated with it. I think we all miss it a bit.

Nevertheless - the guessing game is not a joke and its result is true
