Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Cherry123]

Yeah, you need to touch grass I'm affraid. The world is not what you see on TV.

This is how Alleria sees other characters. And Anduin has puppy eyes again, how can Anduin find a girl if no one considers him a man?

[Darkarath]

Very cool that with Classic TW we will be able to farm the original Zanadalari Tribe reputation (unobtainable since Cataclysm) and the PvP reputations too !!

Time to do TW dungeons non-stop

A few pages back, some one mentioned Nerubian at the embassy. Was that a real thing? I am just there now, don't see anything.

I feel stupid now.

It was allegedly a toy or item that people were using to spawn the Nerubians

Ah, thanks for clearing that up for me.

Something like this

I'd change the belt from full Eagletalon since that is very much Farstrider-themed. No helmet cause ears.

Just got home, but I made a quick picture of the pieces I was talking about. They are terribly annoying to get now tho.
My hunter hasn't even touched any zone and is sitting on 70, because I though the Dr visuals and talents were super underwhelming. Maybe I try it the next update.

Wow. These new hood and shoulder scarf combos are 10x better than the current versions. These look incredible.

Example with the Lionsguard set and new Lordaeron Crest.

[Kiivar86]

Whoa, where are those from?

The hood at least is a variant of a new set of items coming to the Trading Post. This time you can get hoods with masks (or without the mask, as you see in that).



Assuming the shoulders are new shoulder capes too.

[Xilurm]

Damn, these look sick.

[Mekkle]

bro blizzard is just cooking and cooking, keep that shit up.

The Trading Post really does just seem to be the excuse the designers have been itching for. Finally allowing them to make all kinds of transmog that is either too simple to work anywhere, like these shoulders and masks. Or too out there, like the beach themed set we got two months ago.

Yeah, I'm pretty happy with the Trading Post, honestly. Even if the only things that month are like the hoods/shoulder capes, there's something in it I'm looking forward to, and its a way to earn things without having to pay through the in-game shop. Some good stuff in there.

That they're making new hoods (I'm not 100% on the masks for some but I'm sure there's some rocking good transmog you can make with them) and items makes me hopeful for the future.

[Xilurm]

So I just finished the weekly quest and it gave a lore drop. This wasn't even part of the main campaign. Interesting, I wonder if we'll keep getting these every week. Also makes me wonder if you can miss out on this info if you don't do a week.

[huth]

Ah yes, the very passive lifestyle of exploring a new land and ending up almost dying by the hands of a 2 meters bloodthirsty orcs, of leading the siege of one of the horde capital city, and of going deep down into the depth of hell itself.

Anduin probably does more in a month than even most active people in first world countries do in a year. He hardly even has time to sit down.

i mean the 5th old god either wasnt fought by the keepers or thoroughly erased from everything

the closest tomb doesnt matter if the 5th was killed by the other old gods like if they were torn apart by the other 4.

to me there are 2 possible theories
1. shes a fragment of the 5th
2. all old gods were originally 1 being

There is no 5th, it's nothing more than a community made rumour. I mean yes, new old gods can enter the world from the The Dark Beyond but the void energies of them entering the atmosphere would of been detected upon entry so it that rumour just needs killing off.

Old Gods are generally accompanied by a C'Thraxxi - Yogg had Vezax, G'huun had Myrthrax, N'Zoth had the Dragon Soul raid fella and the world Boss in Stormsong Valley - The list can go on but the point is made there's literally zero breadcrumbs to go off to suggest there is actually a 5th.

from chronicles

This is breadcrumb enough for most to keep the theory running. At least shows Blizzard wanted to keep the idea available

Not a community-made rumor.

There’s actually a book in-game you can find in DF (forbidden reach I think) that mentions 5 old gods.

The quote from the book.

The Pantheon shattered the Old Gods' citadels and chained the five evil gods far beneath the surface of the world. Without the Old Gods' power to keep their raging spirits bound to the physical world, the elementals were banished to an abyssal plane, where they would contend with one another for all eternity. With the elementals' departure, nature calmed, and the world settled into a peaceful harmony. The Titans saw that the threat was contained and set to work.

<A note has been scribbled on the page.>
Fools! The power of the elements was not so easily contained. Nor could they bind the influence of the Old Gods. The "peace" the titans offered came only through oppression.

Back in October I was speculating that Avaloren will be original place of Xalatath old god body. Nice to see this theory back in some form. Even if she isn't old god, there is still question why rest put her in knife.

If she was old god, there is also thing about N'zoth - he was struck by (empty) knife too, we know he's a schemer and interration with him in DF was pretty strange.

I mean, he captured Azshara but left the dagger with her as an oversight? That whole plot point makes no sense unless he was deliberately trying to get into the dagger.

Which given the void sees all outcomes, it would make sense if it was his only chance to survive.

There's still the question of why he didn't just take it from Azshara and put it somewhere we couldn't get to. He had plenty of opportunity of keeping it from us, but chose to just leave it. And he certainly knows what it is, given that he was the one to release Xal'atath from it.

Also I'll add, the mural you can see in the final chamber of the City of Threads dungeon matches the 5th Old God C'thulhu look perfectly.
