Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Wangming]

Who are you talking about?

I'm guessing Renzik and Locus Walker.

Renzik WAS a goblin but also an SI:7 Agent. And LW was the one who helped Alleria become a Void Elf so he is counted I suppose. I can see Renzik, but LW is a stretch.

idk if it's been mentioned, but there IS a Housing Vendor at the Bazaar

[Samin]

Really no Nightborne items?

The red recolor of their heritage armor is available

[Magistrate]

We lost locus walker. Who was a big key part of alleria story.
An we lost reznik the shiv. Who was a key SI 7 character.

Locus Walker isn't dead. He's in the Dark Heart. Khadgar said he specifically turned himself into arcane energy to survive inside and that's all Locus Walker is.

khadgar didnt explodes, locus walker yes

I really doubt Locus Walker is dead. He's probably chilling in the Dark Heart with Dimensius and Salhadaar.

What? The explosion that destroyed Dalaran happened at the same time he escaped inside, it certainly looked like Khadgar went boom.

To be honest, I could see Locus Walker being corrupted and used as a boss, as a goading tactic by Xal

I'm going to guess that the new race is tied to Midnight preorders and they purposefully kept it from being added until as close to Midnight reveal as possible so it would not leak early.

It would make sense to have a preorder bonus for people that aren't interested in Housing.

Is this based on anything or just purely speculation

[Makorus]

The new races will be High Elves and Amani. Ethereals aren't happening.

People always overthink stuff like that, but it's always the most obvious thing with Blizzard. There was nothing in the files indicating Ethereals and a lot of things went against them being implemented.

I am just theorizing, if they added a single thing (or more) to the preorder keys in a build that came out days before expansion reveal. If it truly is gated to 11.2.5 that would explain the glamour (if it's Ethereal playable race) as that is when the model would be ready.

[Wangming]

Anyway I'm noticing the lack of Taylor Swift songs linked. Did we retire that tradition?

[SaintBigfoot]

We lost locus walker. Who was a big key part of alleria story.
An we lost reznik the shiv. Who was a key SI 7 character.

Neither of those are major faction characters comparable to Lorthemar come on now.

[Xeladriel]

The new races will be High Elves

fixed, is more cheap

The "single item" I mentioned is a single file. Could be anything from an additional store texture to an icon. Definitely not pointing to anything like a race.

[Pheraz]

another reskinned race


so boring lol

well, i would agree if we were not going to.... the very capital of the decendants of high elves I get the HE fatique and thats why we have this HE discussion thread. But expecting midnight, which is confirmed to feature silvermoon, to not be related to high elves is... a bit naive I just hope they dont add HEs as a new race and just add more custom. for BEs and VEs...

[Makorus]

fixed, is more cheap

I mean, Amani are a reskin as well, so does it matter?

[JDBlou]

high elves are already going to be in midnight this isnt news

Only a momentary lapse in your sarcasm detection, I assume

What do you think the likelihood of getting a new race is with all your datamining experience?
