Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Makabreska]

I dunno about the rest of you but I'm really holding out hope we get some little bonus for having done the Dragonwrath legendary.

Give us a proper Tarecgosa mount apperance! The whole dragonflight thing would be perfect to apply it to.

Maybe an xmog interaction, like with Azzinoth blades?

Well, to be fair it seems like they want to follow the marvel formula of "you don't need any prior knowledge to enjoy it, but it's still all connected" now with Expansions.

So the same model they've used since TBC? Nothing in WoW has required previous knowledge to enjoy it. Also since Cataclysm everything has been self contained with small hooks into the next expansion. You didn't need to know the previous one to understand anything other then "what enabled X to happen".

I would settle just for the ability to use the mount with out the staff equipped. I only use it during timewalking and I miss having a dragon form.

Perhaps but the staff allows you to transform into a dragon with Tarcegosa's appearance (roughly). Problem is you have to equip it to use it to transform.

Since the dragonflight system lets you ride on one of a few types of dragons and they'll be customizable, I am hoping really hard that having Dragonwrath unlocks an appearance for one of the dragons so you can fly on a dragon with her appearance.

Basically, I'm tired of equipping the staff, using it to transform, then switching out every time I want to "mount up" as her.

I would settle just for the ability to use the mount with out the staff equipped. I only use it during timewalking and I miss having a dragon form.

I'd take that as well, honestly. But I figure the dragonflight system thing is the best chance for it.

[Lady Atia]

WoWDev2 has just gone down

Don't play with my heart.

[Catastrophy349]

WoWDev2 has just gone down

Yep! Wrath Beta has been down for 1.5 hours now.

[Bindanda]

Shouldn't we expect more tweets from like Muffinus or Holinka that are kinda trolling/teasing us? I wouldnt read to much into just 1 dev tweeting. I'm glad he said that it means nothing about DF

[puddypounce]

See y'all next week.

[micwini]

Don't play with my heart.

It's the same guy that said "OMFG alpha is up!!!!1one" a few days ago, so you can calm yourself again :P

[Padwarle]

Another day, another encrypted wowdev build.

[Hyrja]

build 10.0.0.44420 will be the one

[Lady Atia]

build 10.0.0.44420 will be the one

hehe I got that reference.

Alpha on bnet launchers have started

[ohwell]

Considering the OW2 Beta is starting today, I don't think Alpha is starting today.

Probably Thursday.

I feel like Bastion is something left from a different version of Shadowlands.

The entire story doesn't really make sense and hinges on every single character and every single Kyrian having no braincells whatsoever.

Bastion is one of the things that was actually MOST connected to everything. Hell Devos pretty much told us in Spires what some people "learned" later on. If anything Bastion and Ardenweald were to show how ridiculously their leaders were devoted to the First Ones. I mean the Winter Queen takes a little bit of a leap being that she was so much more obsessed with the anima and the cycle that she let the Drust run rampant barely even lifting a finger when that's all it would take. The Archon is just blatantly blindly following the path. It took a full on insurrection in her realm to make her deviate just a little.

I mean she is a robot made to follow the plan. Why deviate. Her logic is undeniable.

[Makorus]

Except she is a robot with an actual soul in her?

Her logic is only undeniable if we assume that not a single thing goes to Oribos and notices the huge stream of souls going towards the Maw. The Kyrians don't learn that all the souls are going towards the Maw until the first (or second, maybe?) chapter of the Kyrian Campaign.

You are telling me that while we are doing our business in Maldraxxus/Ardenweald/Revendreth, not a single person is like "Oh yeah, Kyrian guys, I know that you are following the Path and everything, but the thing that you literally based this whole thing on is BROKE. You are literally sending souls to the guy you are fighting."

They could have had an interesting story in terms of "Should we follow a dogmatic order that we were created for or should we maybe change things up a time so it is fairer and makes more sense", but the way they do it in game is completely idiotic.

I usually don't have a problem with the Shadowlands story, but the Bastion part is outright incompetent. It only makes sense if the Bastion campaign happens DURING the Bastion questline at the start of the expansion, and even that is pushing it, because that only makes sense if the Arbiter broke essentially while we are about to reach the Shadowlands.

Rumours have spread that there is a Maw Walker by the time we reach Maldraxxus, but not that the Arbiter broke? There's literally Brokers in Oribos and in Bastion.

[ExiHext]

Yep, as much as I like kyrian aesthetic, the continuity is (for the sake of the Bastion story part) dumb.

The entire story is bad. The entire statement was meant to illustrate the stupidity of the "robot gods"of Shadowlands. The "logic is undeniable" is a reference ffs.

[Nyel]

Probably, but considering that Wrath and DF will release pretty close together they probably don't care as much about news overlap as we think.

I don't think this is the case anymore with them rushing out Dragonflight. WotLK most likely will come in August and Dragonflight will launch in late November, so there's not much of an overlap.
