Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Nymrohd]

I think I will run the dungeons on follower mode the first time around, just so I can take in the story at my own pace.
if Khadgar does die, I hope they find a way to bring him back. Just nothing contrived. But I want him around. heck maybe the Wonderball could allow some "Shade of Khadgar" to stay behind and help us with knowledge if we need him down the line

Hope everyone's getting a bit more hyped now finally. I've been away for a while and have some questions if anyone can help me:

1. Do we know if there is a neutral sanctuary city for TWW?
2. Does there appear to be any noticeable difference between Horde and Alliance levelling experience?
3. For those in the know, how are we feeling about the known narrative so far?

Lastly, how does the tone of the expansion feel? Is there any content / expansions or patches that it feels like historically?

It's hard to get a good read on peoples opinions when you've been out of the loop for a few months lol

1. Yes Dward Neutral City
2. Most likely same. Seems no faction confilict.
3. Should be better than the last 3 expansions now that Metzens back, but who knows.

Well, Medivh died LONG ago and he still showed up once in a while, so I suspect Khadgar might have something similar up his sleeve.

Weird that they give Dornogal the Trading Post. I guess their over needing us to ever go back to SW/Org

Yeah, I was really happy to see that.

Orweyna is interesting model. An aquatic middle point between troll and kaldorei.

Eh, i don't see what's aquatic about it?

The claws and thorns very much signal underground flora.

Red shirt guy just confirmed the Dark Trolls / Night Elves / Guardians are called Harronir. Sounds an awful lot like Elun'ahir.

Drogbar related, maybe? Wasn't it an ooooold theory they were related to Trolls?

You can see a Drogbar in the City of Threads for a second.

Yeah I will never be a fan of that. I'll never like the neutral city hubs.

Shattrath was part ruin
Dalaran is solid but overused and now . . .
the Shrines were tiny
the WoD Ashran areas low effort
Oribos is just boring
Valdrakken is OK but I cannot say it excited me.

For me best capital in a long time is Boralus.

[Nymrohd]

Tiny spider model, I assume pet, is adorable.

[justwatching]

Boralus and Dalaran I kinda liked but in general I would prefer if it was just OG and SW.

Given that we get a arachnophobia filter, making a race playable that is basically spiders, seems a no-no to me

I doubt the humanoid nerubians are spider-like enough to trigger that. It seems like the crab filter is just for the ones with more than two legs.

The proto elves are on the wowhead dressing room by the way.


They look quite good.

I like how you can push them to look a bit more elven or a bit more trollish.

[Nymrohd]

The evoker tier set is so damn gorgeous. Such a waste.

Harrow, in English, can mean to pillage or plunder, a frame with spikes or skarp-edged disks drawn by horse or tractor, or cause distress to.

One explanation puts it: "dragged across ploughed land to smooth or break up the soil, to remove weeds or cover seeds". Sounds a bit familiar with the whole roots theme.

the -nir ending is seen with a lot of vrykul/titanforged/noridc names. Thorignir, Sjonnir, Hyldnir, Hurthnir. Perhaps don't look at Harro from an english perspective, but a nordic one? Harro in basque means proud, harr in norwegian is greyhound, and harr in swedish means grayling? Could be many inspirations for that name.

[Nymrohd]

I hope the Harronir end up playable they look cool. Always wanted a Dark Troll (in my TRPG warcraft games, they are allied with the Kaldorei and I've had a player play one for a while)

I guess to each their own, but i think they look kinda disgusting.

the heck? quills and fur? The fur reminds me of satyrs actually. But Quills? Are quillboars now part of the elf lineage? trolls and quillboars both do have tusks...

[Cheezits]

I'm surprised the Harronir are in the files like this, so early, and not the Arathi. Making them half-elves is clever and an easy win for a subrace. But it looks like Harronir came first.

[Raetary]

Looks like Monks are getting Celestial themed tier sets.

Amirdrassil got Chi-ji, now Nerub'ar has Niuzao.

And the black variant is *chefs kiss*
