Midnight 12.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[justwatching]

Gonna guess Hearthstone or that Duskwood thing.

MT is a huge stretch.

[Reive]

another game mode when we have housing and remix overlapping in 1 month?

As always people are hyping themselves up to unrealistic levels and will end up being disappointed and blame Blizzard for hyping them up. Classic

Could be a Midnight launch date announcement but too early for that perhaps.

Sometimes I get the sense that these people wouldn't feel they have a valuable experience in their day to day lives unless they created their own reason to be mad at their drug dealer.

As far as release date, even then, they really have given so many indications and half leaks as to the time frame that it wouldn't even be exciting.

Full belly laugh if it turns out to be some merch.

Hitei with the banger on that one cause holy fuck does that make 12.1 better than "ITS THE TROLL PIVOT BECAUSE TBC CALLBACK".

I snort that cope wholesale, yes please.

She's shitposting.

There's an extended maintenance so this a realistic guess in my opinion. There hasn't been any news of the new gamemode in Duskwood they've teased too so it's still a rational guess. When they've released Plunderstorm, they've been very secretive about it until the release.

Could also be an official release date for 11.2.7 or even for Midnight but this just seems too ceremonial.

The extended maintenance is purely for the new Remix phase as well as some deployment/infrastructure upgrades that Tom Ellis mentioned on Twitter (those wouldn't just effect Classic), it won't have to do with whatever the tease is.

The Bird is in cahoots with Blizz.
The Box clearly contains Ethereals, the secret game mode, Amani Trolls, The Last Titan, the expansion afterward and the Tinker class.

Does it contain a functional UI for raid healers?

No, i also heard it doesn't contain engaging gameplay (or any gameplay, for that matter) for fire mages

You will cast Fireball and you'll like it!

No dataminings today, so I supose that it is because the Alpha has ended. Guess there will be no more Midnight drama until next week?

There wasn't even a build yet, was there? Most Alpha builds have been deployed wednesday, last week was a bit of an outlier

I fully expect a build later today. If only to do as much stability and bug fixing as they can this week before the beta.
Also, damn, cannot remember this long a maintenance in a while.

Speaking of fire mages, does anyone play a specific spec and only that spec because they headcanon their character as someone that's only that spec? For mages it seems much easier because their specs are so much more distinct compared to what other classes have.

I main a blood elf fire mage since mid TBC basically. I only played frost for a bit during Tomb of Sargeras iirc. Strongly considering Arcane for Midnight though. Still fits the Blood Elf motif and have access to Arlo at least

Yeah, there is a 12.0 build scheduled for later today.

Hope that we get the Apex Talents that are missing.

In particular Vengeance and Havoc, please.

With some classes, each spec has a very different theme. As a paladin I think I can switch between specs and they all make sense; I feel the same for most of the hybrids like druid or shaman; you just focus on a specific task at a time (though I can see people building e.g. a Balance or Resto druid as a Wildkin or Ancient character). But I have different mage characters for each spec; I will say the Hero Talents do let you create a dual Arcane/Fire or Fire/Frost mage that stays in theme even when they switch specs. Similarly while I find Destro and Demo close in theme, Affliction really feels like a different class.

Well going from Alpha to Beta does assume being feature complete so you have a point there. Even though it is more a marketing term than anything at this point.

the ingame cash shop got a new ui and look...
