    That IS a good question actually. What and where would happen for patches dedicated to one of the classes?

    Not to bring them up again, but FFXIV had the best songs composed while the main composer and sound designer was in hospital. With cancer. During covid lockdown. And the team didn't even know about it.



    Anyroad, good morning yall. Did I miss anything juicy?

    Wasn't that the case when they made every race (except Drac'thyr) playable with Warlocks? They added demon customizations and a whole questline for how these races "became" Warlocks

    Shamans should have been 10.0.

    It’s a heavy elemental themed expansion with much of the elemental content being in 10.0 with the Primalists, Vault of the Incarnates, Elemental Storms and around half of the launch dungeons being element themed.

    We'll find it out in a few weeks I guess.
    I still think we will get some surprise instanced content before the end. Uldaz should be somewhere in this expac.

    Indeed. Maybe the next expansion is just Dragonflight Part 2. That could be neat.

    Yeah. https://www.wowhead.com/ptr-2/item=1...-razor?bonus=0

    So the purple one is 2h and gold one is 1h.

    I wouldn’t be surprised to see Uldaz used for Avaloren/Khaz Algar.

    I know Tyrhold is Uldorus but I feel like we saw very little of it outside of the Halls of Infusion and the exterior. If we go off naming conventions, we can assume Uldorus is the equivalent of Antorus. Just feels like for such a potentially massively important place, we got the bare minimum. I still think 10.3 should have been a Titan Keeper patch with us exploring Uldorus proper as a raid/new world zone content with Odyn invading the Dragon Isles with his Valarjar.

    I think we might see some non-instanced content we do not expect in 10.2.5. Cause ending with the ED raid just doesn't make much sense.

    True. Or when we had the green flame questline.
    But it isn't a whole patch in the sense that this is a druid patch. Although if you want to be extra pedantic you could say Legion was a warlock expansion. It was about demons. Lots of demons. Hell WoD was about how to beat up the Iron Horde enough for them to accept any help and let Gul'Dan corrupt the orcs again.

    Definitely. But I'm fairly certain this is just a well-designed fake.

    The only thing that feels super off is the image of the 'Goliath' but beyond that it's a pretty remarkable one. Given Ybarra tweeted he was reviewing the finalized Blizzcon assets it's possible this went out to some third party person today.

    The thing is, now that we have all these different AI art generators, anyone can create new and original art assets within just a few seconds and use them in their "leaks".

    Still, it's the highest effort "leak" I've seen so far.

    Yeah, and after 10.0.5 (when the Forbidden Reach opened up) it stopped being about the Elementals and Primalists and became more about the Dragons and the Drac'thyr.

    Though who knows.. I heard they might have something planned for the Primalists in 10.2.5 but I'm not holding my breath on that being the reason how everyone becomes a shaman.

    The only thing that feels super off is that the screen is tilted, but the images and text ON the screen are not.
