Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

That would be undead tinkers

I'm already hoping for undead animal forms for a potential undead druid.

[Eldryth]

If Tinkers ever actually do happen, they should just use a customizable mech like the new Moonkin options. Even if that means you don't see your character, also like Moonkin. Give options for all major racial styles, and either include glyphs or some other form of variant animations to fit that, or just have a wide variety of abilities like guns, lasers, rockets, crystals, etc. (maybe broken up by spec) and justify it by saying that player Tinkers studied various engineering styles from across Azeroth.

I wish an expansion would bring back multistrike. I miss the little mini-spells.

I played sub rogue a lot in WoD I enjoyed multristrike a lot. shame they got rid of that and kept the more boring versatility.

[JDBlou]

Ah I've seen we are in the "Tinker discussion phase". Every hype thread has cca. 200 pages of pointless Tinker discussion. At this point its ridiculous.

200 pages, those are rookie numbers. We've got to pump those numbers up

[Aucald]

It should go without saying this is not a Tinker thread, nor a thread about a lengthy comparison of probable future classes. Let's keep that discussion to any of the several threads already devoted to it, and keep this thread as on-topic as possible as it concerns future patches and expansions.

[Ersula]

Never said they would be. You go Goblin, Gnome, MGnome, and Vulpera.

Vulpera don't use technology any more than any other races. You seem to be predicated on them only making a mech animation for those two riggings, but why would they need to? A mech pilot is either going to be stationary or not visible.

[Well Done Steak]

It's the calm before the storm.... Can you feel it Mr Krabs?

For sure one of the features is gonna be open shammy, druid, paladin, and DH for all races.

DH just needs new starting intro like panda and AR dks.

[Valysar]

I want an xpac with a zone full of changes as you progress through the quests (like mount hyjal regrowth, but on a bigger scale)

[matijwow]

It's 100% revamp time, and all reasons given by Blizzard to not do a revamp are failures on their part, not excuses.

[Ferlion]

I would still be unsurprised if we see no leaks at all this year.

Again, people are likely nervous about the new guy.

[Teriz]

Today is probably the last boring day before BlizzCon. No one's at work etc.

Tomorrow, we'll be 4 days from the big event and real leaks will probably start trickling in.

I'd watch for Wednesday to be the day something legitimate leaks.

I mean we should be approaching the time when leaks coming from the convention area may begin.

Im hoping for no leaks at all this year, but that seems pretty impossible for Blizzard.

It was amusing. I wish people didn't froth at the mouth over balance, and subsequently push Blizzard into being so careful about it. At least DF has been pretty great about neat effects not just on trinkets and weapons but also crated gear and random items.

I think the issue with multistrike was that it was so many more procs for the system to process. But since then I think they have made many optimizations and they could handle multistrike now (I mean just look at the talents, it is proc bonanza)

[Bwgmon]

As Jastoll pointed out, if you can't provide the necessary art assets for them, there's no point bringing those races into the class. People aren't going to be excited to play a Draenei "artificer" in a Draenei warframe that is using Goblin tinker abilities.

Considering how many people manage to play Blood Knights and Sunwalkers just fine despite having Hammer of Justice and all those other abilities that don't really fit them, I suspect people will survive seeing Draenei and Orcs throwing bombs from their mech.

But I digress, this thing has run its course at this point.

Maybe the true leak already happened

[Woke it Up]

Maybe the extra time in the morning in the second day is to roll out the new posters and stuff for the stuff announced the first day so there's no chance of a dragonflight releak

It's just built-in time for recovering from the hangovers from the various parties the night before.

Also, related sidenote, both Twitch streamers EsfandTV and Knut will be IRL streaming BlizzCon so if you want additional POVs of the event outside of the official streams (and Esfand's IRL streams are always cool), there's them.

Ahaha this time the Tinker discussion got so heated it even summoned a mod.
