Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Wangming]

We already got this post painting removal so it’s safe to say blizzard isn’t against sexy if not done by weirdos.

The link is broken for me so I'll take your word for it.

Ya, I replaced it with one that should be working.

It’s the blood troll set on a blood elf, front and a back view to show that they are willing to put some assets on display.

I want the sexy goblin calendar in my house immediately please.

Lightforged Garrosh riding a dragon is some crazy Endwalker shit and I was totally on board.

Sadly, we got Dragonflight instead.

Regarding Lightforged Garrosh, I really hope they find some fun ways to bring him in.

I think Midnight gives them some ground to take some truly wild risks, and I think Yrel, Exarch Hellscream and all of the Lightbound on AU Draenor would make an excellent addition to the story. If we're truly doing this final battleground between Light and Void, the Light better pull out all stops. Having an army whose leader is somewhat in debt to us tucked away in an alternate reality is a pretty big card to pull. Utilize the Infinites to bring them in, tie up the loose ends from AU Draenor and go wild. /shrug

Why not this far too high-definition, equally as attractive portrait of Gallywix?

Legion is good but something about it doesn't click as much for me as WoD's does. I dunno, maybe its partly because I'm such a mark for Draenei and Draenor that it resonates as well as it does.


Someone correct me if I'm wrong but those red panda pets/mounts were China-only for a moment too, weren't they? I know one had special function that we didn't get though. And then we got them through various methods.

Wouldn't surprise me if we see these filter over to us over time.

I think only one panda pet (the ... blue one?) was china only, available first there though yeah. That said, we never got that tint for EU/US (so far).

Besides that, there was a darker firelands phoenix with some chinese feather effects, aswell as a yellow ashes of alar recolour, but both looked a bit bad so not much was lost there.

Than they also got the recolour of the blizzcon bear, which honestly should have been available by helping them stress test the chinese realms (ok, I'm not entirely sure if that would have worked since iirc they use a different client but it would have been cool and symbolic imo if we could work together to bring these servers back).

This time though, it's a brand new transmog and a recolour of a (still recent) mythic only mount so :/

Sick trailer ngl

[Hitei]

You broke my Dark Heart, Alleria.

Just make out already.

Sick trailer ngl

Indeed!! Also .... it looked like some snippets from a pre-fight Dimensius cinematic? With the dark heart? Or is that part of the campaign?

Thank you kindly. It works like a charm now. And indeed it is nice.

All I need now is an updated model for Queen Tessa.

That reminds me. Slightly off topic. Okay, very offtopic. But what is the name of Tess Greymane? This sounds like a stupid question to ask, but hear me out.
Tess is almost certainly a nickname, like Prince Harry or Ned Stark. Nobody is called just Tess.
In my fan novella I gave her the full name Theresa Olivia Greymane. And yes I am a sucker for middle names especially for royalty.

It looks like there's bits from both pre-raid campaign and post raid.

[Wangming]

Just make out already.

It is hilarious how much chemistry they have compared to Alleria and Turalyon.

Dimensius encouner looks insane 0:57 mark in the trailer.

Why yes. The Ultimate Light vs Void battle sure sounds like an all out balls to the walls fight. And if you have an entire army fo Lightforged Draenei, Orcs and whatever else, you'd be dumb not to use them.

Even if Yrel is framed as someone who has gone too far and descended into zealotry, Xal'atatath has to be stopped.
From the perspective of the Horde and the Alliance the best would be to let Azshara, Yrel and Xal just battle it out. Whoever falls is just one less thing to worry about and even the victor will exhaust resources and soldiers.

dimensius is like sweeping the area with a gigantic void beam and u have to dragonride to dodge it, one of the coolest looking boss phases ive seen ngl

[Darkarath]

Cannot wait to play (tomorrow) K'aresh main questline.

That trailer is sick.

Well done, Blizzard.

Yeah, that's impressive. My question is what are we going to be fighting in Midnight if we're fighting Dimensius now? Back to back void raids might be a bit excessive.

[Al Gorefiend]

Maybe Midnight is only void in QT for the first patch as a segue into whatever force takes us to Northrend, with the majority of the expac being titan and tech themed

[Wangming]

We are going to fight Knaifu the Waifu for Laifu.

And let me remind you that Hellfire Citadel was followed up by the Nighthold. Also Siege of Orgrimmar was followed up by WoD.
