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

[PotHockets]

Think about what you just said lmao

That's the lore. The Horde has always been outnumbered by the Alliance and Garrosh doing what he did made it even more pronounced.

Not sure what you're arguing here. Are you coming at this from an in-universe perspective, or a gameplay one?

It looks like some people have got their copies of the new book early and there are some spoilers over on the official forums.

Copy-pasting below some info. Using spoiler tag just in case, since the book isn't officially out yet.


- Vyranoth’s disturbed at how their culture is ignored when four ordered dragons just openly approach her.
- Saristrasz, Alexstrasza’s majordomo, outright said that Vyranoth spoke well for her kind showing her that some of ordered look down on their proto-dragon kin.
- Vyranoth outright wonders why the dragons had to change at all to be of use to the titans.
- Alexstrasza publicly pledging her allegiance to Tyr really rubbed Vyranoth the way wrong as she felt that she sacrificed of herself to show her commitment to the Titans. This feeling grows worse when she picks on that Alexstrasza heavily disagrees with Tyr on something and that Tyr defends it with wanting to make the dragonflights thrive.
** When it comes to Alexstrasza’s point of the view the manner, it’s revealed that it was about infusing order magic into the primal eggs and that the Dragon Queen very much felt like that it wasn’t a request Tyr was making, with Malygos outright calling it a command.
- Alexstrasza outright promised her that Order magic would be a choice and not forced… and well we saw how that turned out.
- Iridikron was reclusive and withdrawn, with Alexstrasza having never even seen him.
- Neltharion and Iridikron were long rivals.
- Fyrakk is considered a hothead who wants to fight and not a true threat. However Iridikron potentially joining him is a massive concern.
- Alexstrasza outright says that the Aspects may lose Keeper support if they don’t go with Tyr’s request. Neltharion’s reaction is to curl his lips, leaving it vague as to how he feels on the comment.


The user who made the thread also mentioned that Fyrakk is Alexstrazsa’s cousin and he was the first one to become an Incarnate.

I think one person in the forums summed it up, "Tyr in general comes across a lot less friendly than his game depictions. They seem to be leaning into all beings of Order being kind of micromanagers who don’t take no well." Like I've said before, I'm not a fan of this direction they're going with Tyr in the slightest. It feels like a retread of Xe'ra, and I'm getting the feeling that Vyranoth is going to [b]DESTROY[/b] this new Tyr that we're trying to build.

That's the lore. The Horde has always been outnumbered by the Alliance and Garrosh doing what he did made it even more pronounced.

Lol Rogers stated the Horde had the larger force on Pandaria and only suffered a beating because the initial rebellion was almost crushed at the gates.

Seems obvious to me that it's just a WoW version of a colonial narrative. The Titans are colonists. Some of the natives (dragons) join them, some resist. They're writing it to make the Titans more and more unsympathetic though (the dragons only go along out of fear), which hasn't been how the Titans have been written in the long run.

Sons of Anarchy, duh.
Explains the new fel bike models.
New class: METAL
New race: Demonaxx
New feature: Bike riding
New dungeon: Capitalism's fall
New raid: Gallywix's secret pleasure palace
New continent: Frigg - The dead titan. The enormous corpse of a young titan that used to live in the moon, but fell on Azeroth. Every biome contains running rivers of eternal blood. METAL!

Can we sacrifice a zone's plot to be a sardonic retelling of the plot of Ride to Hell: Retribution? There can even be a joke where people thank one another by rubbing against eachother while fully clothed.

Of course. Thrall is like Jax and the dwarves take the place of the IRA.

Someone just made a thread about potential 11.0 zones

[Ashapls]

the youtubers are launching their editing software as we type.

[Marlamin]

Welp, that one looks pretty damn good :<

[Imotbh]

AI-generated or not, it does look WoWish, gotta give them that.

[ro9ue]

Looks legit to me. Def not AI generated, if fake it was photoshopped by hand.

[Alendarr]

Welp, looks like that's the one. If that's a fake leak I am extremely impressed. It could easily be the best one we've ever seen.

[Mecheon]

Yeah, that's actually pretty dang nice. If it is a fake, credit to the artist as they nailed that artstyle

The critter in screenshot four does look a bit off, however

[Ashapls]

So which revamped vanilla zones do we think these screenshots are of?

[Calfredd]

Yeah, that's actually pretty dang nice. If it is a fake, credit to the artist as they nailed that artstyle

The big one is a triceratops so the little one just looks like the usual big-headed baby version of it to me anyway.

[ro9ue]

Screenshot 4 has the pet from the Time Rifts that you get from the Titan vendor.

[Izalla]

That dinosaur matches the pet you can get from Time Rifts =O

- - - Updated - - -

They look completely legit. If they are fake, the artist deserves massive props.

[Eeram]

Most of those mobs are not new right? other then the dwarf it all looks like maybe a private server

[GhostPanini]

Yup this looks like wow. If this is AI its pretty dang good at matching it.
