Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Gurahk]

Yea.. also tauren model for a dragon visage.. quite lame.

That's lame, but yet another human isn't?

[Lahis]

Hope he and Merithra get somewhat better models. I assume they won't get a unique dragon model until they actually become Aspects.

They should once the Aspects are actually re-empowered, but we still need Tyr's memories for that and those are lost in timeways after Uldum dungeon.

Luckily next patch is all about timey-wimey bullshit.

[Super Dickmann]

I for one am glad Ebonhorn is the aspect, because it means we finally have an aspect with a Horde connection (Kalec and in a way Merithra are the Alliance ones)
Also nice to see someone that doesn't just have an elf or human as their visage form.

Honestly, the main good thing that can come out of it past the Horde connection is to actually give the Highmountain a distinguishing feature beside riding moose from regular tauren by giving them a dragonsworn angle or something.

[guro-tchai]

I was honestly expecting it to be Wrathion.

Just because of how severely the game handwaves genocide if you're not a woman.

i agree that Maiev should purge Tyrande's SA and gas the orcs later. and get away with it.
we've learned a lot about race relations - but, it appears, not enough about gender relations.

[Aeluron Lightsong]

I mean Ebonhorn technically is the more level headed one even if I prefered Wrathion only for the gradual progression he has had. That said Ebyssian should try to be a bit more assertive when the threats against Dragons come. Its ok to be assertive, that doesn't mean impatient, vengeful, prideful etc etc.

IF blizzard ever decides to do Tinkers in a future expansion, I wonder if they’d be restricted to Gnomes/Goblins or if they’d be open to all races.

If they’re restricted to Gnomes/Goblins they could go all out and have them be in a mech suits most of the time, at least for one spec, and it can be around the size of a Tauren. (Like you can see with Mekkatorque’s mech when he is in the Embassy)
They could go all out with being able to customize it too.

But if they’re open to everyone else I doubt they would simply because of size. Unless they make it a “transformation” like the G.M.O.D mount I guess.

Gnomes, Goblins, Mechagnomes, Vulpera, Draenei, Lightforged Draenei, Orcs, Mag’har Orcs, Dwarves, Blood Elves, Dark Iron Dwarves, Nightborne.

Possibly Humans and Forsaken.

[Shadowferal]

Agreed. But it is always funny to me running around in BGs on my Gnome Fury Warrior.

I'd have you fighting in this;

Something to be said about how the two leaders who merited regime change were a brown man and a mentally ill woman and this at the hands of a blonde blue-eyed hereditary monarch. My deeply held progressive values were under vicious assault in Mists and BFA.

[Kereberus]

Anyone know what this is? I can't find it

You're right. I forgot about Maiev consoling Tyrande at Sylvanas' trial after Maiev tried to kill Tyrande multiple times & during Cataclysm, coordinated the assassination of multiple Night Elf politicians in an attempt to take control of the government. It's literally just Sylvanas who doesn't get a pass.

To be fair to Maiev, she was trying to round up and hang all Night Elf mages to keep them from becoming playable and compromising night elf identity, which is not only defensible, but laudable and necessary. We're all the poorer for her failure.

[Cheezits]

I don't particularly like Wrathion staying as a diplomat, I would've rathered he left to do his own thing once he realized he wouldn't be Aspect.

They could go all out with being able to customize it too.

If they did this they'd be inundated with "when can other races be Tinkers." They'll only restrict class options from now on if its a race specifically designed for the class, like Evoker. We have mecha mounts already & larger races don't take up any more room in them than the small ones.

danuser needs to leave, seriously. 2 expansions of crap writing and this guy still has a job. Is he blackmailing bobby? I can't understand how this guy hasn't been fired yet.

Ah yes, there's the casual fascism this thread desperately needed.

[Sondrelk]

Why Ebyssian though? Why couldnt it just be Emberthal like what made sense? Is it just because the devs wanted a fifth giant dragon model in Valdrakken? Because I am inclined t believe that is the reason why.

[Super Dickmann]

Ah yes, there's the casual fascism this thread desperately needed.

Please, I'm clearly making more of a Marxist argument. The Night Elf mages are all the descendants of the vampiric Highborne kulak class and their physical liquidation is both a moral (and narrative) necessity for the good of the organism at large.

Stop being overdramatic. Jesus christ.

[Revamp Man]
