Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Catastrophy349]

Well, this is all super generic and can fit pretty much every expansion.

At a base level? Sure. However, look at who is actually saying this stuff. Only 3 characters are talking in the trailer: 2 Black Dragons and 1 Bronze. The Bronze is talking specifically about the future and Destiny.

I imagine they'll reveal this years pre-expansion animated series with the pre-patch date.

Ye ye. Nozdormu will get Murozon'd. So damn boring. I really hope for a twist.

Oh, I can’t wait!

The twist will be Nozdormu sacrificing himself during the Vault raid similar to Ysera with Xavius. Then, turning into Murozond as a result.

*looks at Murozond*

I'm telling you all right now, and I'm sticking to it. Galakrond is the Lei'shen plot. And Murozond is the "Garrosh as final boss" plot.

I'm confused, is this supposed to be a bold theory or...? Because pretty much everyone knows Murozond will be the final boss.

[Revamp Man]

Wish they'd stop time gating LFR. Having to pay an entire extra month of sub to experience content that people with time to do Normal/Heroic raids get to is frustrating.

Just unsub until it's out

I'm thinking moruzond will be guldan and galakrond will be archimonde

Doesn't fix the underlying issue.

People who do normal/heroic raid can subscribe for the launch and get to experience the launch + the entire raid and its accompanying story.

Casual players can subscribe for launch, but then have to subscribe again for the rest of the raid.

There is really little time consumed difference between queuing to LFR and pugging normals. Also, the ancient advice still holds true - find a guild! Plenty of chill, normal/hc guilds out there.

[Nymrohd]

It's definitely not as crazy as you may believe...

People think Galakrond, others (like Nobbel) think Turalyon...some think Odyn.

Murozond is more rare than you think, and no, there is a high chance Light and Void isn't 11.0. Prolly won't be for a long while.

I could see Odyn but the Primalist angle doesn't work for him. The lore didn't depict him hating the dragons, just that he didn't believe they should abdicate responsibility and shove it to them instead of using their existing armies and further improving them. And he wasn't wrong. I CAN see Odyn come forth if they bring more dragons to the dragon isles if they remember the Storm flight from Stormheim.

That has not been my experience at all. Pugging Castle Nathria Normal on release was a nightmare and time-consuming. I'll take queuing into LFR over having multiple groups fall apart and having to play the Group Finder game of applying to new groups each time it happens.

[Xilurm]

Turalyon isn't so predictable as it is stupid. They'd just be going in circles. Oh it was a Horde leader before let's make it an Alliance leader now.

[Valysar]

The leak was 100% true then. Prepatch October 25

Followed by so desired by some hordies Siege of SW. Like, srsly. How people want to make Turalyon a villain in a DF expansion setting? He shows zero fanaticism/ill will, you gotta need Naaru to make him go bad. And sure, we can have them suddenly descent from the sky in final patch, but that would be a total switch of setting and going back to cosmic themes, something Blizz wants to take a break from.

[Varodoc]

I'm thinking moruzond will be guldan and galakrond will be archimonde

A pointless distinction to make.

Gul'dan technically wasn't the "final boss" in gameplay sense, but he was still the final villain of the story, replacing Grommash/Iron Horde after 6.1. Archimonde wasn't even a character in WoD, he appeared for 2 minutes, got his hooves stabbed by the players, and died. Gul'dan was pretty much the final villain.

It's definitely not as crazy as you may believe...

Murozond is more rare than you think, and no, there is a high chance Light and Void isn't 11.0. Prolly won't be for a long while.

Turalyon is just a meme answer from the vocal minority of Horde players that still hasn't gotten over SoO. Odyn also seems like a meme answer, he was on good terms with the champions in Legion.

That you brought up 11.0 is irrelevant to me as I wasn't talking about it.

Yeah... it's literally just some Horde diehard fanboys online that are still salty about SoO.

You'd think they would give up after Blizzard repeated SoO with Battle of Dazar'alor, but nope! They do not desist in their wishes to see an Alliance city turned into a raid. It's not happening.

Even then it's not so easy. He literally watched Xe'ra die. Got really pissed for a few minutes (and rightfully so, he watched some demonic looking guy kill her) but then calmed down and kept going.

TBH, it was prolly because of her influence on him disappeared, as indicated by his eye colour changing from gold to brown. Further proving theory of Naaru MCing people.

Now the vocal haters online are trying to argue that Turalyon wanting tight security around the Dracthyr is a sign of "villainy".

Even though, as Turalyon calmly explains to his subordinates, his advisors informed him that the last time a dragon went to Stormwind under mortal guise, the entire kingdom was engulfed by civil war and corruption, which were all started by said dragon disguised as mortal.

Turalyon is very wise and reasonable to place the Dracthyr and their visage forms under strict security.

Or they pug into normal
They give you the tools it's up to you to use them
