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

[Valysar]

It's weird that the new event does not start after the weekly reset, at least for European.

[Cheezits]

Maybe a "Winds of Sanctuary" type thing for Blizzcon? No idea what that would look like as we already have Timeways.

Would be REALLY cool if it's across Azeroth and building up a revamp.

(Promotion) New Promotion -> Probably blizzcon as others have posted 1 month out typically means the virtual ticket stuff.

(Event) New In-Game Event Available -> this is odd, we have so many events this week happening. Unless they are announcing a new one that doesnt start tomorrow?

Actually last promotion was amazon prime gaming - so might be another one of those?

They didnt include the blizzcon schedule besides guild class on the weekly list.

If it's real, it's a terrible name and a terrible logo.

It's the best name we've heard so far

Already announced and it was a Recruit-A-Friend Topaz kitten.

Spitballing here, but maybe with the keyart, the dwarves are coming OUT of the Maelstrom?

Consider that the Algarian Earthen were sent out to a "fissure". What if it was the Maelstrom and Deepholm? I know the timeline doesn't match exactly for the Sundering, but still.

Maybe this event is somehow tied in with whatever the "New Content" 3rd round in the Guild Clash is? Even if lightly tied in. Probably a stretch.

Overwatch revealed a Lilith Skin for Moira in their preview of the Halloween event. New Skins for Overwatch Halloween is typical. But Other Blizzard Property Skins is typically a staple for Blizzcon Virtual Ticket. Who wants to bet the Lilith Moira Skin is in the Blizzcon Bundle?

This is a good point. I was thinking about how "Well they hid the Dragon Isles, so the Titans can completely hide any region." But, like the Dragon Isles, its impossible to visit or leave these hidden regions. So how did Watcher Melenia get a report to Uldaman? What if it actually is a Sea based expansion but Ybarra didn't actually see any Pirates in the presentation of the expansion and that's why he said that. Like rn there's wow devs going "But Mike, there are some pirates in the expansion!"

Or conversely, My current wish is Tyr reveals a secret invisible third moon for the new expansion cinematic. World of Warcraft: Secret Moon

The Maelstrom definitely fits with the various other clues we have gotten for this expansion. Especially with all the storm Rider material that we are getting from the various datamined materials, including the mount and the storm Rider achievements. I definitely think the Malestrom is probably gonna be a major part of 11.0.

Deepholm was originally planned to be in the empty area above SW

The "No Pirates" thing always sounded like it was mostly about main theme, and not about no pirates ever.
I don't think it would be wrong to say "No Naga" about Dragonflight, despite the small contingent on the Forbidden Reach.

if we're getting a world revamp I'm not expecting to get any new zones. The point would be put all new content into those revamped zones. World Revamp might still be a possibility but if it is I expect it's because the Algarians are actually invading Kalimdor/EK. Then the actual Khaz Algar can be a patch zone.

That would be a strong possibility. All we know is that there are those hostile to the Titan Keepers, but those could be someone else, or for that matter being hostile to the Titan Keepers wouldnt make them allies to us.

Man that'd be a real fucking bummer

[Bomba the Shaman]

Leaks were all bullshit until today, I think this Stormbreak is actually legit. I'm intrigued rather than hyped, its sorta has a Cata 2.0 feeling to it.

... oh please fuck no.

[Sondrelk]

That'll be Wednesday. I imagine it's something specifically Blizzcon related, probably won't have any directly story ties.

This is where again I think it's important to float the idea of Khaz Algar being a part of EK via the "Khaz" connection.

I think Khaz'algar is very heavily hinted at being far away from EK at least. Could be on Kalimdor of course, but you would still have to place them somewhere noone would have found them.

Why hide it then if its not a secret.

[Sondrelk]

Why are noone assuming that the event tomorrow is the continuation of the Tyr questline? We know that the white dragonscale option is supposed to be available this patch, and we should be halfway through this patch by my reckoning.

I fucking hope blizz doesn’t advertise raider.io

That's possible. Though they don't usually advertise a campaign update that way. They usually have that weird little daily content bar instead.
