Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[PomPomPop]

While I'm sure it's not real still, someone on discord posted this, said they got it from a guild member

That's a clearer and different 'stage' image from the one we saw earlier:


Seems it is from a video previewing how it works? Because one point got spent between the two images.

Evoker Minstrel spec? Were the microclasses Evoker subspecs all along? Lol

I'm thinking more of the "music" the devs kept implying was a feature of all the automa in Zereth Mortis. Guessing the First Ones had a sort of musical quality to their original universe creating cosmic magics.

This was leaked here with the "dragon race" earlier.

Some sort of revamp in the talent tree/class tree, i think it looks good, some sort of a mix with artifacts+old tree and the new one

[Zankai27]

Yep we saw that earlier along with a leak of a new race.

The one we saw earlier wasn't filled out like this; only the left was lit up

I dunno y'all, I kinda really feel this in particular. Feels like a move they'd make.

Also, ALSO, that better damn be Convoke at the bottom. Don't leave me bb please.

[Izalla]

99% odds he's talking out his ass but let's just venture down the 1% odds he's right and then the chance you're right.

Fall of Galakrond cinematic leading into Galakrond being the villain?

Oh I'm not right, just the angle of the dragon in the first image looked more like a protodrake than a regular dragon. Every cryptic post since has made me go "eehhhhnnn"

[Ferlion]

My obvious guess would be like class tree then spec tree?

is this also a follow up to this one?

It "seems", and it's just kind of how I am reading it... That you can custom build a druid with spells, etc. So if you want to be a bear with rip/rake/whatever... you have that option. It seems like each of those "talents" is an ability slot that you can then use.

And it is a new screenshot of the previous concept...

Oh lawdy

[Erisoul]

This is so high res that it hurts. Maybe it is actually real

[Table1]

Yep we saw that earlier along with a leak of a new race.

Unless my memory sucks I think that is the same talent page, but with more selected. Trying to find the previous one as I did not save it.

[ro9ue]

I love Alien, and I think it has an important place in cinematic history, but Covenant is basically a better version of the same movie in many ways.

I don't know what's worse, how that dragon race looks or this comment.

OOOOH. Very cool, so I think I see what they're doing. If you look at the ones with the arrows to each side, I bet that's how they implement the talent rows from before. So you pick that slot and choose 1 of 3.

[FossilFree]

Definitely going to be:

I guess we have some Tolkien fans among the devs?

[Local Ardenweald Faerie]

Go to sleep faerie. *Sprinkles Fairy dust*

I... no... zzzzzzz

Alright folks, this is where I clock out for the night. See you all in the morning, if I don't sleep in. <3

Although I'm still suspicious of this because of its association with the race leak which we already pretty much debunked, I am still fascinated by the idea. The idea of splitting between baseline and specialized talents is interesting, for sure.

We kind of already had that starting to be implied with the musical quality of cosmic magic and the automa in Zereth Mortis.

The race leak wasn't debunked at all.

Yep, I've been thinking that since 9.2 dropped too. Can't wait to see how it plays out!

[Hitei]

Interesting that some of these nodes seem to have a toggle of some sort on them, like you can select from several options or conduits or something for those spots.

[Stricks]

On the talent tree, wonder how a character would get "Druid Points" (I assume leveling up) and "Restoration Points"? Both seem to count down as they are spent considering they are both at 0.

[Izalla]

Yeah, I was frankly not sure why people thought of that—I think you're thinking of me, though. I circled what I thought people meant by it to point out it was probably the wing clipping.

Someone asked where the nipples are and someone else circled two spots to point out such nipples. They were in completely different spots compared to each other (the dot being more to the right on its apparent breast)

[Das Thora]

Any idea as to why EK is front and center of the logo?
I was looking at previous logos and the only other one where there was that clear out of outline was WoD with Draenor. Others I think were either blurry, random landmasses or all of Azeroth rotating.
