The War Within 11.X Patches & World Soul Saga Speculation Thread

[Ferlion]

Btw I know we have no indication it might happen, but another thing that absolutely would get people very excited other than a revamp and ties in to all the unique mogs we've been getting from trading post and elsewhere is

Class skins.

Tie it into Archeology somehow. Update both at once.

Transmog changes like opening up Transmogging Cloth/Leather/Mail on Plate classes with PVP keeping a locked Transmog on the Class Armor Type to keep Class silhouette for PVP would be neat too.

Same goes with being able to collect Transmog for other Armor Types on any character independent of the armor type.

But yeah, I doubt this stuff will happen its a nightmare and until they stop with the "Class silhouette" issue as the wall I doubt these things will happen.

What is this "Frontier" you guys are talking about? i missed that train!

A bit of World Revamp copium here, but one of the emblematic artwork for World of Warcraft is the gryphon rider, which was later "remastered" and included a Horde wyvern rider too :





If they adapt dragonriding to other mounts and simply remove more faction restrictions, then we could likely have a gryphon for both factions. This is full of copium.

As for S.A.F.E, I think it's just a gnome unit made during Cataclysm.

Class skins I don't think will ever happen as a big feature. Primarily because some classes really don't have any good class skins concepts that players would be excited for.

[Mecheon]

Finally, some good leak content. Don't also forget that Gryphons got a whole swathe of dragonriding animations recently as well, so that's absolutely the special edition mount.

what's the class concept of a runemaster?

Basically a more Warcraft-y monk. Has glowing tattoos that store magic and power so you can punch a dude hard.

Given monks exist I don't think Runemaster as outlined in the RPG has much of a niche, though I guess a general runecaster or the like is something that can be explored

This would make me very excited though. Even more so if they also removed the limitation on class specific sets.
Give me a reason to play several alts!

class and race silhouette doesn't mean squat nowadays

[Sydrache]

So what prior leak lines up most with this? I reread the voidstorm post I saw no mention of Dwarves

[Ersula]

Judging by that Necromantic Gryphon texture, it could either be an underground expansion (literal trogs, the word used to describe creatures who evolved to live exclusively in caves), a sea expansion (ala Helya's cursed seafarers) or an alien expansion. (Khaz Algar is on the moooooon)

None of them. The "Algarian Stormrider" leak has basically been confirmed and the only other real hint is the in-game artifact with Demon, Aqir & Titan writing, like a pre-historical rosetta stone.

So yeah, we're visiting an Azeroth-native culture that cut off ties with the Titans early on. First mentioned way back in 10.0 a very chadly move, Blizzard.

There is a single unused Inn model from pre/early Dragonflight development called the "Frontier Inn".

It really doesn’t.
My warrior looks more like a mage now because of all the cosmetics.

They should just remove armor type restrictions now.

[Nymrohd]

I think many people agree but that doesn't stop Blizzard from using it as an excuse.

[Hitei]

Based on Shadowlands being called Ensorcelled Everwyrm and Dragonflight being called Tangled Dreamweaver.

Wait, they weren't.

I guess "Tangled Dreamweaver" is technically an anagram of Dragonflight. Crazy that we didn't figure it out until now.

[Dragon ANX]

Thanks! Is there a place where i can see it or is it just the name entry?

I don't know about Azeroth-native. I assumed the Algarians are from Khaz Algar, which was a settlement of earthen that were deemed heretics, so still Titan-created but rejecting them.

I just meant Azeroth Native as much as any of the other playable races. Since apparently there's no proof any of the sapient races evolved naturally here.
