Dragonflight Alpha/Beta General Discussion

[Gurahk]

I think a lot of dislike for the Yrel turn comes from people who didn't play the scenario, which apparently is most people if the AR stats are believed. Her "turn" is interesting and she's actually sympathetic to the Orcs, enough for some of them to join her and the Draenei. But if you hear YREL BAD without context you can assume the worst.

Yrel was a favorite because she's a cute girl but in WoD itself she was a bland pair of tits who can paladin... which I guess has some novelty as important female characters were still sparse at that time. I much prefer her to become a more novel character though light antagonism than "friendly quest giver who loves you #2222"

Also a lot of pushback to the Light being a possible antagonist because of fanon ideas of it being Christian faith and God... when it wasn't, especially day one of TBC.

Are we just gonna ignore the whole "forcing" part?

NEW Alpha build INC!

[Soisoisoi]

Ayo??? Is it tho?

Yup. Max's stream confirmed.

Servers literally just went off.

[Revamp Man]

It's going to be a bunch of raid related questions. That's all max cares about.

Actually no
Max tried to get in for interviews early on but blizzard said "oh we didn't think you wanted to talk about anything outside of raid so we didn't give you one"

So with the dracthyr racial boosting gathering professions I'm thinking of playing one just for it to be my herbalist/miner
I really don't like the class but if the stat isn't easy to come by then it's needed

a boring statue but still really cool

Well, as a DH I'm happy with the new tree, looks sweet, even if half our ability passives became talents. We finally have a reason to take non haste/verse stats.

Two new encrypted cinematics were added in this build. One runs for 2 minutes 20 seconds and the other one runs for 3 minutes 30 seconds.

I'm scared of what one of these might entail.

[Lahis]

They are linked, the gateway just isn't open anymore. Xe'ra somehow getting in touch with the Draenei there implies they're still part of the main reality, time is just distorted there due to bronze dragon shenanigans.

That is AU Xera or her equivalent.

[Izalla]

Do not know man, I think that we are speculating here. The fact is that WoD's Draenor still exists, and probably a whole universe with it. Hopefully they will address some of this in DF.

Pretty sure it's actually well established at this point that nothing besides the main timeline is "real". The only reason WoD Draenor exists is because Kairoz forced it into being by yanking it out of hypothetical-bronze-magic-land and attaching it to our universe. The reason it still exists is also because of that, but remember from the Mag'har recruitment scenario that in the last 30 years (as in, since it was forced into being and became part of our reality), the whole planet has just started to die. Speculation as to why (draenei blame the orcs; also theories it could be related to the light for some reason) often includes "because it isn't even supposed to exist and is now naturally degrading in a much slower, sadder way".

Demons blade is NOT a proc anymore! FINALLY!

[tristannarutofan]

I really dont think even time magic is strong enough to manifest a whole universe, or even anchor an existing one, to the point a single person can do that.

I think even though they arent the intended timeline the time multiverse exists.

And poknt of order the bronzes were of a single planet and empowered by one aspect of reality, order.

Its possible "one true timeline" is an aberation

haste/crit and windfury buffs

this is why i didnt like the "one legion across all reality" because it makes naaru and other beings equivalent to demons also 1 for all

the entire discussion in this thread is hurting my head though

[Xilurm]

https://twitter.com/Portergauge/stat...36739654471681 Thoughts on this? I actually like this, though the sharpness of each turn could use SOME work lol

It looks too much like "air swimming" which is more like the old flying. I don't like it.

This is the best thing I've seen all week. Also, he has no cheese in front of him. I hope Nomi starts asking him about a wide variety of cheeses he would like to purchase.

Um… there’s plenty of cheese in front of him.
