    Maybe that's phase 3 of the pre-patch?

    Phase 1, just the 10.0 patch.
    Phase 2, Dracthyr
    Phase 3, Events?

    Who knows.

    They’re both coming in ‘stage 2’.
    Which is probably the 8th of November

    (SLs prepatch launched Oct 13ish with the prepatch event not starting until Nov 10th for reference… but we know prepatch is obviously gonna be shorter than SLs was.)


    The datamined “what’s new” text I was talking about.
    Looks like they’re gonna launch DE, Events, and Uldaman at the same time.

    I do hope the delay between Phase 1 and 2 isn’t that long though. I’d prefer at most a week but I’m expecting two.

    Assuming they didnt change their mind about the event lasting two weeks I think we will have to just accept waiting those two weeks.

    In SL they switched both pre-expansion event and pre-season from 3 to 2 weeks, probably because all feels pretty dragged by week 3. But would be nice to start Evoker sooner (so week 1 - sorting out initial bugs, week 2 - evoker, week 4 - event).

    Even without event pre-patch will be pretty good trade - we lose KSM/PVP mounts, but gain talents on top of borrowed power (cause it works inside Shadowlands) + every content become fated for 5 weeks. I hope they change few minor stuff too to help people with meta achiev (for example reducing Venthyr party cooldown from weekly to daily).

    Oh come on. That was at most a -3/10.

    Though i'm confused it didn't occur to Mighty that saying "They have plans for the next 8 years" might not be quite the doom and gloom message he is imagining

    I believe someone said the green variant of the open world sets would be the unique rewards.

    If this is true, this is a pretty clever way of explaining Galakrond's corruption. After all, Yogg said he was a god of death... and yet had no mention in the Shadowlands. God of Decay is close enough

    This also ties Galakrond directly to the Emerald Dream, which Yogg corrupted which may explain why we need Ysera: Galakrond or his followers might try to kill the Dream with Decay

    Here is the lore book in question:

    This also confirms that Uldorus sounding like Antorus was not a coincidence. Pretty cool stuff.

    Ye, the most hype OG, and the only one showing any personality got simply laz0rd.
    Sometimes, the light of the moon is a key to other spaces. I've found a place where, for a night or two, the streets curve in unfamiliar ways. If I walk here, I might find insight, or I might be touched by madness.

    I honestly don't see how the Titans' being primarily interested with order is in any way new.

    I mean it's just confirming things we largely knew, just giving them a harsher tone. Well except for one part that was mostly a theory (but the more prominent theory).

    I mean more as in wanting to experience that stuff in-game anyway. The pre-patch stuff is not going away after the game launches, right?

    Eh it almost always is. But I assume this is from some book we find in the Uldaman dungeon?
