Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Foolicious]

Theory: the Mother Oathstone was never meant to respond to any of the Aspects in the first place, but to Tyr himself.

Possibly. It's unlikely the titans would let the dragons alone reclaim their power. I just dislike the whole oathstone storyline in general. It just doesn't make sense why they exist in the first place.

I can see it, certainly. Definitely a necromantic kind of vibe.

Remember the rhyme,
blue green, necromantic sheen
green blue, mistweaver is you

Or maybe there would be way to transform any DPS spec into support through new talents or something else. Pure support spec turned out to be huge headache for people who work on tuning.

What do you mean? Augmentation appears to be a huge success. If I had to guess Demon Hunter will get a Support spec.

As a DH main, I would welcome a support spec, although I rather have a ranged DPS spec, if possible implicating bows.

What's the buzz on the new zones right now? We've got Eathern/Khaz Algar so far for Zone 1. Zone 2/3/4?

Avaloren sounds very 'knightly' (i.e. Avalon) Gives me paladin/Hand of Tyr vibes.

I thought DF was the 'Titan-themed' expansion, so idk if they'll continue with that.

Why not both?

If Dragonflight is any indication, they will be completely random letters & words.

Avaloren Continent: Khaz Algar, Domoluliis Wastes, Violet Reaches, Zividivilas, The Creeping Dunes.

Sure ¡¡ That would be awesome ¡¡ I just would be glad with one. Although a Fel Demon Hunter shooting fel arrows sounds really amazing...

That's too true!

To be fair I've not rolled one of the additional classes at all and this would get me to roll a DH just for that kind of spec

I like this discussion. So, what types of "biomes" would everyone like to see in 11.0 (can be related to a theme/fanfiction "hope").

Nothing Underground please mr Dev, anysign of that shizz is a total turnoff.

Although I would love to see loadsa Void Shizz I love the Purples and stars.

Give me cottagecore England with sunset colours, light stone ruins, misty forests and weeping willows and I'm sold.

No sunset colours but Gilneas is kind of WoW's England! :P

Needs more Yorkshire tea, and full english breakfasts.

Forests. I like forest zones.

But I want a dark forest. A forest you go into and know you are up shit creek. What Ashenvale should have been.

Trees and roots grown around skeletons at grotesque positions. Arrows and stains of blood across rocks. Twisted and gnarly branches and trunks.

Combine Ashenvale, Gilneas, Duskwood, and Drustvar into one uber horror forest.

Gilneas is victorian gothic.

Cottagecore is about pretty, aestheticized, rural farm life.

Dragonflight didn't do it, but i refuse to let the dream die:



I just want my floating islands man!

I want more 'spooky'/unsettling stuff as well. Re: Drustvar but without silly witches tbf. Vanilla Scarlet Monastery-esque vibes are my fav.

Tetley's for me (I'm such a scrub) and extra sausages <3

Very Elwynn Forest-esque Stormsong Valley (and Kul Tiras as a whole) gave me UK vibes in some places imo.

Floating Islands is my fetish.

I was so disappointed when Thaldraszus kinda had them but not really.

I am 100% with you! I remember reading a "leak," prior to Dragonflight's announcement, about a "Dragon Isles continent that was "floating in the air."" Would be so cool!

Another question: How should Dragonflight transition into 11.0 (obviously, without us knowing what 11.0 is, yet)? As in, how should the current narrative/story take us to 11.0?

If next expansion is indeed Avaloren with Khaz Algar featured then I imagine something like this:

- A zone based on Camelot. Forests, meadows, hamlets etc. Basically typical western fantasy. I also expect a large city similar to Suramar to dominate the zone.
- A dark swamp zone, less like Nazmir. Moreso like Velen in The Witcher, Dark Crystal, Neverending story. Very witchy, lots of fantastical evil creatures.
- A zone similar to the Scottish Highlands. Lochs and lakes, crags, valleys, gorges etc.
- Khaz Algar which could be anything from a craggy, ravine like zone with the Algarian cities and settlements littered within fissures and ravines as well as some partial underground areas. Or it could also be a a dark, evil land filled with heretics and Avaloren’s heretics that is similar to places such as Mordor or your typical evil controlled areas in a Disney film.
