Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

That sounds cool. What would Artificer even entail as a class? My concept of it is D&D. Robots, tinkering, alchemy, and tech. Like a less gnome/goblin centric Tinkerer?

Man, it would be hilarious if they add a Tinker class and its not themed after Gnome or Goblin engineering.

I rather talk about the 4 "leaked" images than all of this "010101" crap.

[matijwow]

For people engaging in the binary riddle. Could we get a cliff notes of what's been "revealed" so far. It's all very confusing. I've seen things about satyrs and artificers?

3:58 pg 2309
the first riddle for 11.0 will be found on page 1418

4:27 pg2312
The riddle was found in the shaper of worlds. For your next quest, find the fourth in the fourth, who may point you further.

5:16 pg2316
Knowledge of Warcraft is essential, the last clue may be too difficult for some. Y, C, Y, N, are the four.

5:29 pg2317
Giving you runes made it easy. The fourth god in the fourth war, he will be involved, but you already known. Your location already known: Khaz Algar. The Shaper of Worlds detailed your plot. What can you discover new? class or race? Now the 1st, 18th, and 20th, will give you some runes, the rest you will have to fill in. Use two of your eyes.

6:19 pg 2322
ART is correct, now use your eyes. The race will come next.

7:02 pg 2327
“ARTificer?”
You discovered your class... now about your race? Your first step: Go to the storm.

7:09 pg2328
The Stormpeaks are home of the Stormforged Artificer, both steps have been solved, but Stormforged Iron Dwarf is not your race. The Earthen of Khaz Algar, based on them. You got your plot, your continent, your race, your class, but what about systems?

7:11 pg2329
It is time for me to sleep, and will let you think before my return, your revamped world is not just a hope.

So basically, we are going to Khaz Algar and there's Iridikron and Xal involved.
New class = Artificer.
New race = Algarian Dwarves.

[Fahrad Wagner]

Do we have any reason to believe that guy is real?

No, it's just fun

[Catastrophy349]

Likely real, anyway.

[Deadmines]

No Satyr, the guy ended up saying ART = Artificer, and then said we'd get Earthern as a new race.

That sounds neat! I love playing Dark Iron Dwarf, perhaps an Earthen is my destined next step.

[micwini]

Do we have any reason to believe that guy is real?

No. But that is not the point.
WORLD REVAMP HYYYYPE

[Dismayxz]

Man, it would be hilarious if they add a Tinker class and its not themed after Gnome or Goblin engineering.

Teriz will have a full on mental breakdown.

[Wangming]

Class comes first. You unlocked "ART" as your clue. Race clues will come later. Follow your other clues.

So, its a Bard still and not satyr?

Or art is part of the class name. But yes, it seems as genius as that satyr trick was, that is not it.

[Fahrad Wagner]

I'd be down for an Artificer class! sounds neat!

[Leowyld]

Please IP ban that 97sol guy if it's a fake leak.

Ah, you just missed them. They logged off for the day. But I think everyone knows the binary riddle series is a fake. Some people are playing along out of boredom. But, yeah, it's definitely fake.

Thank you for the summary. I wouldn't mind playing as an Artificer for a few months!

To be fair I think an Archeology revamp is pretty likely given Blizzard have spoken about it and they haven't added it in DF.

[Raetary]

A tech class based on Titan technology would be pretty neat.

[Zazajin]

I like Dwarves, but I can't really see them being the *only* new playable race in the form of elemental Dwarves/Earthen whatever being enough of a hook. Sure, I have a load of Dwarves myself but it doesn't seem too exciting from a Horde perspective.

[Nymrohd]

Man, it would be hilarious if they add a Tinker class and its not themed after Gnome or Goblin engineering.

Ideally I'd want it to not be themed racially and then for us to be able to customize how the different tinkers/turrets/robots/mechsuits look through engineering (or possible even other professions like JC for Draenei themed looks).
Imo the fact that monk was so strongly themed after Pandaren was always problematic.

[Wangming]

I will laugh my arse off if we get Tinker as a class but it isn't called tinker.

[Chickat]

No matter the way, the hypetrain must be FUELED

We have 2.5 days. So we should get 2500 but i don't see 3000 before blizzcon.

If blizzcon is hype we might get 3k before Sunday morning. And if alpha is actually comine soon we may yet 4k before the end of the year. I dont believe alpha would come this year though. Unless its a major world revamp and they want the xpac out before November. I could see 9 or 10 months of testing in the case.

[Cheezits]

Tinkers are just the Goblin/Gnome term for Artificer.

[Therougetitan]

Artificer is basically the only DnD class that wow hasn't made yet and Holly Longdale is the executive producer of WoW who is into that stuff so I could see if it it wasn't for evokers having just come out.
