Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

End of one book. Not end of book one.

So it's because you can't read, mostly.

Read? He said "First Book" of warcraft in the 9.2 dev video.

And let's not forget Gilneas.

Gilneas was justified. Their worgen were getting over the wall & killing Forsaken. I mean, it's more justified than a war for oil.

[Foreign Exchange Ztudent]

Waiting with bated breath that they do not release the Post-Anduin Campaign chapters tomorrow. Please, Blizzard.

I don't really care about what you call justified, after your "Teldrassil was an act of mercy". You live in a different world.

I never said that. What I said was 'fuck dem elves" and apparently I live in the same world as their Goddess

Then go watch it again because not one person in the video says this.

I don't understand the confusion around this, Danuser twice mentions Sahdowlands as the "final chapter of one book in the warcraft saga" (beginning and end of the video).

It is pretty clear to me that he means the story has ties to previous story bits and that they will probably move away from one major theme/character after this expansion.

Teldrassil was 30 years old & all night elves are thousands of years old. You'd have to make a strong argument to convince me of even entertaining the idea killing a night elf is anything other than a form of euthanasia.

Get over it.

Ok, my man.

[Ersula]

Ok, my man.

You're right. I should have said abortion not euthanasia.

Seemed pretty obvious to me to, I don't get the constant outrage.

This never happened the worgen came from silver pine/shadow fang keep and infected the Gilneans not the other way around.

[Ersula]

Yes, but the Forsaken army cleared out Shadowfang keep nearly a decade before the invasion happened, and the Worgen just kept coming. Now from Gilneas. Which was the reason for the invasion. But if you're trying to go back to the source of the curse, Shadowfang keep was originally part of Gilneas, not Lordaeron.

Justification doesn't mean you have to agree with it.

Again that just flatly didn’t happen the forsaken never fully cleared silverpine the Bloodfang pack were still around and they were the leading force to attack gilneas from silverpine, the invasion also never had any thing to do with worgen and was all about the horde expanding at garrosh’s command.

And while shadow fang was part of gilneas it stopped being so during the scourge invasion.

Literally no part of the invasion had any thing to do with the worgen or even the gilnean’s.

The forsaken pushed the Bloodfang back to Purgation Isle but they were still coming over the wall. Obviously that's not the Gilnean's fault but it was the direct response to the Bloodfang's movements: Ivar even says hes transforming Gilneans to provoke a military conflict. You can take an "all war is bad" stance if you want but invasion is a pretty standard (and if you're the united states, justified) reaction to occupation by insurgents.

I'm just tired of this war game treating very basic war strategy as vilification.

no one is taking a "all war is bad" stance you just don't know what your talking about and are just making up nonsesne that has no basis in actual lore.

the bloodfang pack weren't pushed back to Purgation Isle until after they lost silerpine which only happens after gilneas has already fallen. Prior to that they were invading gilneas from silverpine under the command of alpha prime to both grow there numbers to get revenge on malfurian and to find the scyth of elune.

the mass transforming of Gilneas also doesn't even start until after the forsaken are already beating down the wall it had nothing to do with provoking a military conflict as the conflict has already started before the turnings.

No it didn't: The gilneans say the Worgen were there way before the Forsaken showed up & they were situated on Purgation, IE, in vanilla. If what you were saying is true, why would Ivar attack Gilneas when it was already getting attacked by the Forsaken?

The worgen were around before the forsaken but they weren't actively infecting people they were little more then a local legend or fairy tale.

I also already told you why the worgen attacked Gilenes you edited it out.

they were invading gilneas from silverpine under the command of alpha prime to both grow there numbers to get revenge on malfurian and to find the scyth of elune.

Alpha prime took advantage of the forsaken attacking as away to grow his numbers faster as the Gileans would be busy letting him spread his wolf cult and infect more people until he hit a critical mass.

Ivar him self never actaully even attack's Gilneas just his pack does under Alpha prime's command rather Ivar gave the pack members willingly or Alpha prime took them by being more Alpha is up in the air.

Do you guys think we'll be getting some kind of class/pvp balance changes in some future PTR patch or if they intended to do something they would have put it in already?

[Makabreska]

Man, PTR been up for only 2 weeks, of course they will balance it later.

Balance is always the last thing they do. After 8 expansions i'd expect people to have picked up on that.

Nice, 4 bosses tested this week, including Anduin. It is starting to feel more like February than March release.
