Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Catastrophy349]

Lmfao. Considering all of the dots which ultimately were correct, thus far, regarding the NDA Alpha test happening right now, I believe the Alpha happening "rumor", too. Worse case scenario (as I mentioned earlier), we could get a HUGE news drop from content creators/press/Blizzard, etc. tomorrow of footage/information from this NDA Alpha testing. We already have multiple streamers returning tomorrow after 2 days "off". Taliesan even tweeted that he would have a few videos out tomorrow and Friday.

While I’m confident in Alpha releasing today, I will point out this post. So, stuff is 100% going down NO MATTER WHAT at 9:00 a.m. PST!

I think the problem is also: People are now so confident that alpha is coming, when it does not, shit will hit the fan

It’d be really funny if alpha didn’t release today

And just your basic friendly reminder.....the only true way to know if you've gotten alpha/beta is through your launcher or b.net account. Tis the season for the scammers to send e-mails directing you to websites where "all they need" is your account info for wow, your bank account number and routing number, your debit/credit card numbers, your name, address and SS number, name of your first born child,ect.....then they'll give you a code that you enter somewhere (mmmmhmmm) and you'll get access and a puppy of your choice which they will e-mail to you. Not really all this...but enough to try to steal your accounts. Happens every expansion.

Secondary reminder, keep drinking lots of water especially in this heat - hydrated alpha testers are happy alpha testers. Doctor's orders

Bit random, but I hope they do the coastlines of the Dragon Isles justice. Emphasis will likely be on its inland with the vertical design, but I still want to be able to immerse myself in some cool beaches and underwater areas. Perhaps there's volcanic activity underwater due to all the elementals, or maybe Neptulon's gang is nearby. Maybe bioluminescent algae as seen in the trailer?

I mean, it will be funny

Galakrond is basically the lynchpin for all dragon related content.
Dragons? He is a giant dragon.
Dragon civil war? Those who fight the good dragons worship him.
Dragons and titans/watchers? Galakrond is the reason they met to begin with.
Infinite Dragonflight? Go back in time and defeat Galakrond again to prevent Bronze Dragonflight.
Dragons and cosmic stuff? We still don't know why Galakrond went insane, or why he could ressurect the dead. Or for that matter why he was slowly turning into a modern dragon isntead of a protodragon.

Basically every single dragon related storyline in some way circles back to Galakrond, so it's obvious that a dragon themed expansion should focus on him in some way, especially when we already know there are primal dragons who worship him, and the storyline around Tyr is heavily centered around Galakrond.

I loved the underwear caves in Vashj’ir and/or design of Nazjatar.

Same.

Also loved some bits of ZA + KT.

[Arafal]

And what evidence do we have that he will be a raid boss?

"X character would be great as a raid boss!"

MMO-C: "EVIDENCE???!!"

[Nyel]

Underwear... caves?

[Dioporco]

And what evidence do we have that he will be a raid boss?

there is nothing left on azeroth

[MightyWarrior]

2-4hrs and possible Alpha. Going to buy some pizzas to prep

[therumblings]

underwear caves

one of the best typos in this thread so far

[Cosmicpreds]

It’d be really funny if alpha didn’t release today

Would also be really weird imo

[therumblings]

It would be really strange if we didn't at least get datamining today.

Doesn't the first raid literally go through a whole ass mission in tryna stop the Primalists from resurrecting Galakrond?

Also, I am 100% certain the final boss is either Murozond (leading into either a multiverse or order realm expac. One of the two is likely), or Chromatus, who would feel more like a 1 megaboss raid type of guy, or a world boss that flies across the Dragon Isles.

The question is, is there any value to go horde now that we have cross-faction play. I went horde for SL although alliance has the better racials for the content I play (M+). The amount of keys in the LFG was just way higher than on alliance, but now with cross-faction play I'll definitly go back to alliance (dwarf op).
Anyways since the Alpha will be out in a few hours atleast we will see the Evoker Trees

Any decent guild is still and always will be Horde. The logistics to move guild over are too much to start transferring to Alliance.
