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

[Teriz]

The mount will not necessarily be available in 10.2. We don't know when the Preorder is gonna be released.

If we're going on precedence, it's going to be either available right after announcement, or shortly after the announcement.

[Shadowferal]

Yes on this part we agree. What I disagreed was the part where cutting-edge technology would be used only for warfare and nothing else. Like, imagine reverse engineering new forging methods or hydraulics and not using them in other areas. Imagine having functional railguns but not railroads. laser turrets but not laser cutters or laser surgery.

Widen the scope and mix it up.
I'm my revision of lore...and the expansions, the Draenei would have advanced "techno-mysticism" and Ethereals would have "techno-magic" and Astral ships/bikes that traverse those golden and purple filaments of light that shine above (ley lines).

[Jaggler]

You guys talking about Voidstorm, when 11.0 wil of course be called Wrath of the Thrall smh my head

[ro9ue]

What cinematics stills? Someone post pictures please.

I think given AI, the only cinematics that can be legitimately trusted are ones that feature an identifiable character like Thrall or someone. The main weakness right now is depicting a specific character. At least as far as I know, but this shit changes so fast maybe thats wrong at this point.

I’d like this used in a different sort of expansion in the future where technology is a major theme with tinkers as a spec. Probably when we visit Undermine in a future expansion or even better, a new sky landmass that’s focused around steampunk similar to Columbia from Bioshock Infinite.

People should just wait for Blizzcon. Blizzard would never allow anything to be leaked.

Haha, oh really?

You weren't here during any of the other expansion leaks, right?^^

Btw, if any leak would be real they would be on the frontpage of mmo champion and wowhead.

You don't know that. Making an ability usable in a zone it it currently isn't, is something a hotfix can do.

Besides that the argument that a regular mount is more appealing than a dragonriding mount is just ridiculous, Dragonriding everywhere was ready to go in 10.1.5 but to everyone's surprise, they didn't implement it. It definitely seems like Blizzards style to release it as a pre-order bonus.
no.

Old flying feels awful compared to dragon riding and I can't wait to never have to "static fly" ever again. Giving me a mount that can't use the better flying (dynamic/dragonriding) is useless and a waste of the mount model.

I would gladly take this in Azuremyst perhaps. Fucking Exodar is still a crash site since 2007.

I'd sooner ask for Bards or a better spear class than Tinker, but at this point I would happily take tinkers just to reduce the ammount of threads and comments asking for Tinkers.
If I had my way every race would have an iconic class just for them. Granted that would probably restrict Monks to pandaren and Demon Hunters for Draenei, but we could go wild with all the other races.
Also Naga Myrmidon. Please.

The Bolvar picture showed up very cose to actual Blizzcon day before. SO big doubt.

Where is the fun in that?

And we got riddles pointing towards Dracthyr like a month before. We need another leak bingo.

I've been away for so long I nearly forgot how beautiful you are....

I only remember the scaleface, Drek'thar/Dracthyr, cinematic stills stuff being at most a week before the announcement. Are you sure it was a month? It felt like we just saw it, had time to argue over it, and then watched it all be confirmed like the next day.

On wowhead 100%, i think they probably datamined something much better than we have so far, but won't share it until someone else gets to it and shares the info on reddit or somewhere else.

I think that someone even sent a tweet from stiven from wowhead about him seeing something that others can't, so ye.

Lol.

Blizzard generally doesn't allow leaks, neither does any other company.

Leaks are a thing that just happens, either because they are incompetently hiding their data or because an active leaker breaks NDA.

I think Bards will be co-signed to a Rogue support spec going forward. It’s a shame as I’d love them to get their own class and the depth to do so is certainly there but I just don’t see it happening at this point.

I just think that’s Blizz trying to stay with their finger on the pulse in regards to current trends, with Kaldorei empire being the most similar to the Roman Empire for this sort of meme.

Our dear Kakapo has confirmed there is plenty of stuff for dataminers to see that hasn't been shared yet. I think many of them are of the same opinion as Marlamin at this point, in that it's best to keep the really spoilery stuff to themselves unless someone else has already revealed it. As cool as it is to see the leaks, what makes for a more exciting experience? A handful of clues that can paint various pictures for us to obsess over in the lead up to the reveal? Or the Cata leak where the whole damn thing was published and nothing was a surprise except how much ended up being cut?
