Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[KyleEverett]

I gotta say people think Evoker is too vague don't realize the connections we have to Hunter, Warrior, Rogue, etc are flavored by what we know through WoW. Nothing about Hunter screams to me pet class and bow class. That type of class is usually called Ranger in other games.

Warrior is so vague they could do anything with it. Rogue being stealth is the only thing I'd immediately pick up. Most class names in WoW are so vague that they combine 2-3 classes that exist in other games.

[Wangming]

You know I'm right though. People would lose their collective shit if a female hero is enslaved and abused in her own expansion.

Yeah this isn't the right time for that. But what if that isn't to enslave her, but some sort of harness to make it easier to ride on her?

Thank you. Looks scary.

I will play it at some point after FFXIV'S free trial and The Last of US II

You have quite the adventure ahead of you.

The leaked building clearly resembles the walls and battlements encircling Silvermoon:




Both buildings are rectangular in shape, both buildings are elegantly built with marble, both buildings have golden decorations protruding from the wall (the shape of the decorations is different but it can be justified with the usual discrepancy between cinematic and in-game model).

But what does this mean, exactly?

Well, it is actually very simple. I suspect that the Ren'dorei will finally put their plan in motion, as long orchestrated by Alleria Windrunner and Magister Umbric, their plan to bring Quel'Thalas back into the Alliance. Driven to desperation by the power of the Ren'dorei and the Alliance, the Horde will resort once more to enthralling Alexstrasza and forcing her to create Red dragons for war purpose, for the purpose of halting the Alliance invasion. This is also why there is a figure clearly resembling an orc in front of Alexstrasza who could be chained atop the walls of Silvermoon. Let us also not forget that much of Quel'Thalas' forests burned and were incinerated by the Red dragons during the Second War, so we can't expect the Blood elves to have much care for what happens to dragons.

The aid of Alexstrasza and her enslaved dragons will give the weak Horde a fighting chance against the might of the Ren'dorei (led by Alleria) backed by the strength of the Alliance (led by Turalyon).

This will not be a surprise for most of us, who have been expecting a Quel'Thalas revamp in 10.0.

I expect to be proven right about all of my predictions tomorrow.

[Darkarath]

Why is everyone saying she is chained? You can't chain up the queen of dragons. Her wings are just down, as in its a frame of her either landing or taking off.

It has already been done. It is canon. Although I agree that It will be lame that she got herself in that position again.

[Throren]

also highly doubt thats Grim Batol, that doesnt look like dwarven architecture in the slightest

[Teriz]

Yeah this isn't the right time for that. But what if that isn't to enslave her, but some sort of harness to make it easier to ride on her?

That's not how free dragons roll. If you want to ride on their back, you better hold on for dear life;



Also I doubt the queen of dragons would allow anyone to ride on her back, much less saddle her up.

[Ersula]

They appear to be holding some kind of instrument attached to or near her chin.

That's just what she's always worn. She's always had a chain dangling off her face. Chunky jewelery queen.

-Dragonmaw and Wildhammer customizations

Don't Dwarves already have Wildhammer customizations?

[Raetary]

Where exactly are people seeing a saddle on her?

[Valysar]

We need a new class, a mail that can tank / dps / heal

[Vakir]

That's just what she's always worn.

They appear to be holding it, though. An ally wouldn't do that. It's not framed as a positive at all.

[username993720]

Dragonmaw Orcs are not playable in any form.

Gray skin, yellow eyes.

[Eunomii]

You can paint a Bronzebeard as a Wildhammer, I will concede.

Dragonmaw Orcs are not playable in any form.

Cant you just pick a Maghar Orc, make them grey and give them glowing orange eyes? Isnt that exactly what a Dragonmaw is?

If it is that or being stepped on by Galakrond she would gladly put on a saddle in both her forms.

Granted a second war flashback is still the most likely scenario.

Scaleface VS Ian. Somebody is clearly wrong. But Who? Find out in tomorrow's episode of 10.0 hype.

1. Dragonmaw Orcs are, by definition, not Mag'har Orcs.
2. Dragonmaw Orcs have a purple undertone to their ashen skintone. You are thinking of the Shattered Hand skintone.
3. Dragonmaw Orcs have a solid amber glow to their eyes, presumably from exposure to the Dragon Soul. You are thinking of the fiery orange from the Blackrock Orcs.
Bonus: Dragonmaw Orcs have culturally unique draconic brands or tattoos.

So... no. That isn't what a Dragonmaw Orc is at all.

Thankfully tomorrow is the series finale.

OG Dragonmaw (pre-WOD) had gray skin and dragon tattoos on their forearms.
Current Dragonmaw have bright yellow eyes with their gray skin.

So no, neither form is available to the player atm.
