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

[Neoplanet]

im was thinking about a thing

lets see the reasons each class can be liberated for all races

paladin - gameplaywise : need mounts , lorewise : can be linked with tyr quest to have more paladins , but we have a problem with void elf and unded (counter argument , lightforged warlock exists)

shaman - gameplaywise : need 5 totens , lorewise : can be from vyranoth forces

druid - gameplaywise : need the race forms (can be mitigated with the new forms from 10.2 + a generic one to each) , lorewise : 10.2.0/.5 questiline can explain why

heroics

dk (for dracthyr ) - gameplaywise : need customization , can reuse the allied race/pandarem intro , lorewise : we need some dracthyr kinda dead , you know

demon hunter (for allied elfs , orcs and draineis or all races) - gameplaywise : need new intro , need customisation , lorewise : need reason to have more DH , problem of lightforged DH (contraargument : you guessed ,lightforged warlock)

enkover (to all races ) : is not gonna happen lol

We definitely need some giraffe mounts in the game.

You can't see where you're going but I guess that didn't stop the brontosaurus mount.

[Neoplanet]

also , can the final tyr questline be used to tell us what in the future ? because you now , tyr probably know something we need him alive to know

It’s been a while have I missed anything?

As far as I’m aware, the only reason to think it’s NOT a dragon is the mysterious gryphon texture, am I correct? Cause personally I still hope/believe it could be a green/storm dragon-esque mount lol

The Algarian part. The not-dwarves of Khaz Algar seem to show some surprising parallel evolution to the dwarves we know. That could mean an affinity for gryphons or something gryphon-like. This connection is further reinforced by a datamined trading post transmog "Stormrider's Stormhammer" - which have no reference to Algarian but reinforce the connection of "Stormrider" with hammer swinging dwarven gryphon riders.

I'm doing my part. I remember seeing this fan-art years ago and have been waiting for the mount ever since:

What name would we even give that? The Barrens Giraffe sounds boring, but Barrens something?

Barrens Wargrazer xD

The leaker Algarstorms is a fake leaker. The copycat SoA is fake, then, by proxy. And 22mage22 is possibly an alt account of Algarstorms, at least according to Algarstorms.

You know what, sold.

The current writers think that you create a sympathetic villain by making the original good guys turn out to be bad guys. From what I've seen on the PTR, Danuser's anti-Titan crusade continues.

Man, this channel started fizzing out. Went from a new page in nearly minutes to "slow grinding." Leakers, assemble!

Algarian Gladiator's Wargrazer has a certain ring to it

Our most prolific "leaker" has essentially been shut down. As has discussion about Tinkers. So, things are going to probably remain slow until something new shows up.

Can confirm, it's 1 AM here and I'm about to fall asleep.

It's actually kinda weird we have not indeed seen any wind drakes nor stone drakes. Storm drakes? Sure, but not any of the former. Even more so if we take into account they're elemental related and the Incarnates are some sort of draconic elemental lords.

I take this with a grain of salt since the book has not been officially released, but there seems to be information that the incarnates aren't that closely related to the elements. Iridikron even states that he despises his new form and being infused with an element. They are more like a dark shaman in that sense.

Maybe the wind and storm drakes were not allowed to travel to the dragon isles because therazane and whoever is the current windlord didn't want them to. Or they are closer to the elements than to dragons and simply didn't care.
But i agree that its a bit weird we go around and collect lost dragonflights and forget about them.

[Chickat]

Well one is physical-based, the other is magic-based. Also there’s a clear difference between the two.

There may be, but blizzard wouldn't have 2 tech based classes. It would almost be hilarious if they released an artificer and not a tinker.

They absolutely could have tinkers being both. Especially if they release different spell schools and colors for other classes.

Do you mean recently/in 10.2? Because Cata had both Wind Drakes in the Throne of Four Winds and Stone Drakes in Deephome.

That and yesterday was end of summertime, so it's actually more like 2 AM.

i was thinking , the profecy of "every dragon will betray you" is kinda true but the more time passes , the more became wrong
the first two are correct
malygos - got crazy
neltharion - became deathwing
but then the next two became a mokey paw
ysera - became corrupeted by nightmare , get slain and sended to ardenweald uncorrupeted and now is active again (lets not talk about malfurion situation for now)
nozdormu - became murozond , but we travelled back in time and stopped it , now he make peace with infinites

and them , there are alextraza,with the betray can be a ccorruption or like "we make peace with vyranoth", and idk if tyr is gonna turn into a villan , especally because blizzard is probably using the tyr guard to explain other races paladins

so yeah , tyr became a villan have a smaller chance than for example odyr beccame a villan

Ugh don't remind me. We're getting that in Canada very soon and it's already pitch black at 6:30 without a time change
