Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

death to the windrunners

Well, yea, if anynone should bite the dust, either Elleria or Jaina. Since Jaina aint really in the story, then Elleria. Would be a change for once.

They probably wouldnt dare.

idk, silhouettes are insanely important, and having upright Undead would essentially be a human, especially because pretty much everyone hides the bones anyway.

It's the same thing with upright trolls. We already have upright Trolls, they are called Zandalari.

It is no different to saying "Yeah, Pandaren being fat ruins most old chestpieces, therefore they should add skinny ones that are insanely human-like so mogs look better".

You act like it is impossible to mog a Troll or an Undead, when it's really not. It is 100% a case of people wanting the monster race without it being a monster.

Orcs got upright posture. I don't see trolls or undead being any different.

This take on time travel is creative, at least, but it's obviously fake given that we've already been told that they're adding housing stuff to existing professions instead of making a new one. One of the examples was even a wooden coffin made using Inscription, which would fit cleanly into this new Woodworking if it existed.

I don't think we'll even get another major profession at any point. There's just not enough design space left. It already worked poorly enough with inscription, and we haven't gotten a new major profession since WotLK for a reason.

Every cosmic force is represented by elves though.
Life-night elves
Arcane-nightborne
Light-blood elves
Void-void elves
Fel-demon hunters
Death-dark rangers

Great hint. 10/10

[Hearthfinder]

Considering the game was doing fine for a long time before he returned, I think it'll be fine if he's dead again.

MIA and KIA are two different things. Being MIA added to Turalyon's and Alleria's legacy, and for many years it was one of the biggest questions within the community.

When MoP launched Metzen was on stage and answered a question about them. "In terms of what's coming next, you're gonna need their help".

When they were ultimately confirmed for Legion it was very exciting. They even released an Alleria hero portrait in Hearthstone around the same time, to cash in on the hype.

World of Warcraft: Midnight(northeron)
new zones: Northeron, Northeron city, Northeron isle and ghosteron
the whole continent is about the size of a capital city
housing is only in Northeron
new class: spell'Theron ( 3 specs but can only speculate about northeron)
new race : The northeroneers or some shit
Story: defend northeron from xal'atath and the void (john northeron dies in the cinematic)
first raid tier is going to be: defence of northeron city
ive heard that 12.1 and 12.2 are in northeron

Main character is Lor'Theron

[Andromedes]

Quel'thalas is the main location but it's not the only place. Remember, they're not the only elves
Midnight is adding another race. What cosmic force is not yet represented by an elf race?
What non-Thalassian descendants of the Kaldorei are not yet playable but existed as a quest-giver in a classic zone?

I think there was a single satyr quest giver. Satyrs confirmed?

[Marlamin]

@Marlamin

Did you knew before hand about the secret priest artefact 1h mace and the secret quest related to it ?

Nope, was news to me, quests are almost entirely serverside so not something I would've ran into. Don't believe anything was encrypted either as the appearance itself was datamined.

We are getting First One Elves. Zerethdorei.

Anybody expecting AI to improve anything hasn't paid any attention to what it actually is.

It can't really improve anything just by itself, but it can save time on making less important stuff. E.g. would you notice if random rocks strewn across K'aresh plains are placed by AI? Or that exact shape of some cliff is modeled by a human? Not really. Which means that manpower can be concentrated on polishing important things.

I sure did notice the AI trying to get the updated class model working on non-humans

seriously have you see how the updated Judgement set looks on a BElf woman? Its ridiculous

Yeah, because an upright Orc or a Zandalari feel exactly like being an human or an elf or any of those "pretty" races. When I transmog my character, I like being able to see my chest, tabard and belt without clipping like hell, and to be able to see it; the Darkspear Troll is terrible with most of the transmog. And I mean, even when they cast they stand up... so...

I also love my Kul'Tirans, and I don't give a flying f* about the belly, just like with the Pandaren.

This sounds actually cool. Higher High Elves with big tits. I'm in.

That is exactly what I'm talking about when saying about polishing important things. You have to use AI in areas that require a lot of effort to make but you don't really care about exact end result.

[THEORACLE64]

Would be kinda neat if Stratholme managed to get reclaimed and made into a neutral city imo bc rip Dalaran again.

The remaining days/hours before a reveal are ALWAYS the most HYPE! So, let's enjoy this time and see what we get!

They take the longest, though.

Not this time around for me, all speculation topics exhausted, no legit looking fake leaks like the avaloren one and such.

No, but you don't need an AI for that. Can be done much more cheaply with a simple procedural generator.
