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

[Lahis]

Do we know what world the wandering isle actually exists in? Like is it hidden on the pandaria map somewhere the same way eversong woods/azuremyst are really hidden on the outlands map

It is on its own separate map.

Quel'thalas and Azuremyst exists on Outland map only because how they hmarked expanion content back then. They locked outland map away from accounts without teh expansion, thus the two new starting zones exist on that map.

Im hoping for no leaks at all this year, but that seems pretty impossible for Blizzard.

SL really didn't leak much. We got the name and logo, the bolvar, and the blurb about bastion.

As far as I can remember we had absolutely nothing on the actual story context, the features, etc.

[Teriz]

It's the calm before the storm.... Can you feel it Mr Krabs?

Indeed. Just so no one tries to attack me for it later; While I think the "Soul of Azeroth" leak is the most likely, an expansion featuring Avaloren is (unfortunately) possible as well. I'm hoping for one to be true, but dreading the possibility of the other being true instead. We'll know soon enough..

[Woke it Up]

Ahaha this time the Tinker discussion got so heated it even summoned a mod.

That 40,000 post count is how many tinker threads they've had to stop this year

[Vakir]

Maybe I'd base it on the optional Founding of Durotar campaign, but I never played those missions so I don't know what happens in them. Art for it does use Thrall's old armor, though.

I'd say "you need to," it's spectacular, but it's pretty much permanently tainted if you ever played WC3 online and had it updated thanks to the movement to Reforged's awful god damn client/data.

One of my favorites, though. I get why they couldn't stay that way forever for story reasons, but I miss that iteration of the Horde. Still angry we can't get Ogres/Mok'nathal in the vein of how sexy the new Rexxar is.

[KyleEverett]

Soul of Azeroth as far as I know isn't a leak, someone just jokingly threw a name into the ring.

[Neoplanet]

Ion specifically said in an interview they would NOT be changing existing specs into support but might consider adding more specs.

Now I cannot unsee that. Oh wait maybe we should make a gryphon that is half lion, half sea gull!

I do think Classic+ would generate more hype than an expac that is just 4 zones, 8 dungeons and a raid. The retail expac would need some big feature to compare.

Though I still have no idea what Classic+ is and given how different the opinions are, neither does the community.

Watcher also said the ripcord didn't exist and they wouldn't open the covenants

He also said we got intro skips because experiencing the story once was ok THEN said we couldn't skip the maw intro because we were supposed to experience the story on each character.


He also said trials didn't get loot in ML systems

[Moth Preacher]

Imagine if they won't announce a new expansion at this Blizzcon lol.

And two months later, just like FromSoft, they will announce it in a random tweet

Hey Teriz what is it you don't like about Avaloren?

[Revamp Man]

I played sub rogue a lot in WoD I enjoyed multristrike a lot. shame they got rid of that and kept the more boring versatility.

Readiness and cleave were killed too soon

[Vakir]

Hey Teriz what is it you don't like about Avaloren?

It's not underground and thus tangentially connected to Undermine, therefore not satisfying his spectrum-y hyperfixation.

There will be paragraphs and pages of "logical" reasoning as to how that's not the case, but it's mental gymnastics for wishful thinking like basically everyone else.

[IronWasher]

They will and teamrevamp will be very happy!

[kavikor]

I for one welcome our orc-sized rock dwarf overlords

[Murlocos]

It's not technically a public event, but I hope we see a more fleshed out form of the Cobalt Assembly grind in 11.0. I enjoyed that a lot and think WoW could use more somewhat mindless grinds that aren't totally mandatory in contrast to the "wait and hunt for rares" loop.

Im hoping for no leaks at all this year, but that seems pretty impossible for Blizzard.

The Algarian Stormrider (and possibly Squally) already leaked, so we're already beyond no leaks at all. But yeah, it would be nice if that remained the only leaks especially because it's a relatively low-impact leak.

[Sondrelk]

For me I would argue no widely seen leak is real besides the confirmed one that said the name of the collector's edition mount.
If a leak is true besides that, then it's one that hasn't gained much traction.

Please link to that leak, and not just "because I posted the name bro"

What is Squall?

Hey Teriz what is it you don't like about Avaloren?

It's a departure from known locations in WC lore and history. Seems more like an asspull than a legitimate location for an expansion.
