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

[vintage79]

Sounds like the Path of Titans progression system they were thinking of doing awhile ago but scrapped.

I always wonder what it could be...sound cool

Last one isn't that bad since it was edited last 1 minute after it was posted, probably just typo fix, I do that all the time.

I still think it's kind of suspicious because the real leaks rarely seem concerned about typos or grammar.

[kavikor]

Ehh, AI I think is fine. It's annoying when it's blatant, but it's sometimes fun to pick apart whether something is an AI artifact, or actually just weird looking.

It really was the Algarian Stormrider that killed it. Because it both meant that Khaz Algar was all but hard confirmed, and Khaz Algar was a location we knew basically nothing about.
In one fell swoop it basically killed speculation for a World Revamp, South Seas exploration, and for that matter the Backside of Azeroth, since it now seemed like Titan Keeper rebellion with Earthen seemed to be inevitable.

Leak season seemed just fine until the achievement list got confirmed.

Tbh i think people couldve been more creative with Khaz Algar. Maybe a deep underground lost dwarven city in the lands we know now, or maybe under Silithus like that one guy posted, but I think people just associated the idea of Khaz Algar = Avaloren REALLY early on that no one thought they could be different things

[ercarp]

Yes, the guy who posted this said it was actually Troll woman with 5 Hearthstone cards purle and golden colored.
Even if its real, its not 11.0 related.

Thanks for letting me know, I had completely missed their post on that. It'll be interesting to see if there actually ends up being a banner like that in the Darkmoon Faire area even if it's not 11.0 related.

[Dhomeli]

Oh, what was that leak talking about reworked Glyph System?
Maybe new Heart of Azeroth (2.0) would be like Cosmetic Progression Path, unlocking different visual effects for our spells?

That would be cool. I always thought it was a bit odd that you could earn 'legendary' spell effects for the Heart of Azeroth knowing they wouldn't be usable in the future. I never bothered chasing after most of those as a result.

[Chickat]

Don't tell me HE was right.

Props to him if he was but he didnt have to be such adick about it.

[Leowyld]

Some people are saying it was debunked because they refused to take a picture of the street outside to prove that they're on location, but to be honest, if I was in their shoes I would not be doing that either. I'd be paranoid that the photo would somehow be linked back to me.

Not the only reason I was suspicious. A brand new account appeared and its first posts were supporting the banner claims. And then they had back and forth dialogue. It felt so much like the whole Algarstorms/mage scene that played out. When one was online, the other was offline. And then, when I mentioned the banner to an account I suspect is related today, workwork shows up a page later. Goes offline immediately and that other account starts posting again. It's all some sort of weird game.

[Nymrohd]

Hmm yeah, that is a really good looking model.

Xal will need a weapon and a model

[Izalla]

They will of course announce new wow xpac for retail. Probably cata classic too. I suspect they will do something cool for either retail or classic (classic+), but im skeptical. I think they will go the safe route with:
- Retail xpac
- Cata classic
- SoM classic


The wildcard here is Metzen. Has he been working on classic+ stuff or retail?

Of course they will announce the new expansion, but when I hear "lots of stuff for Warcraft!" I think of WoW. And now it sounds more like any extra exciting stuff is not for regular WoW but for Classic instead. I don't play Classic so that means there is no actual extra cool stuff being hyped up for me, if it's true that all this extra hype is about Classic. So the dread is replacing the excitement I had for all this exciting hyped up WoW news.

[Europah]

I agree 100%

id love more to do more in WoW that feels meaningful to me, which without certain systems like housing or some kind of 'museum' for my collectibles, that comes down to just power based systems that i'd be interested in

"museum" idea sounds amazing tbh

[Nadiru]

Yep exactly. I reach seasonal goals of M+ and Raid in like 4-5 weeks and then i have nothing to do for next 5 months. Now i know some people might say "Just go play other games", but i wanna play wow lmao

So just play wow lmao

[Dragon ANX]

And who likes to play the exact same spec without changes for 4 years? Yeah exactly.

Hello, my name is Dragon and i've playing Fire mage only(Maybe i played like a total of 5 hours of Arcane in Legion) since WOLTK.

[Edit]
Just saying that i quite dont care much about it changing or not, i just like the theme.

[Shadochi]

Well I'm hoping for IronWasher's stuff then even if it means woonz are back. Currently my most likely guess (cuz i really want revamp and not just another 4 zone island)

There have been so many suspicious new accounts this leak season and they often start posting at the same time. I don't know if it's just one gigabrain leaker who's made like 50 different leaks on 50 different accounts just for the hell of it.

[Chickat]

Maybe someone should check out my post history

Interesting. I hope your "leak" is it, but not sure how i feel about heart of Azeroth coming back.

i feel like we might see some kind of like "We have a lot planned for the next X years!" kind of talk with WoW, whether thats like what ideas they have, a new expansion cadence plan since the last two have been cut short by a season (well we dont know about DF yet but people seem to think so)

It's hard to say. It could be one person, or a couple friends. Only thing I can recommend to people is keep an eye on the post count/create date of accounts, especially about leak stuff.

[kavikor]

im a new acct too but I also didnt come here to leak stuff or 'talk' with myself between alt accounts (if that is what happened)

i just always lurked for leak season and wanted to participate this time

It is what has happened several times, just in the past week or so. But you have a larger post count than most of these accounts tend to, they don't seem to like to stay with one name too long.

I know and I have no clue why they abandoned this in favor of borrowed power three times in a row. Huge mistake. There needs to be a progression system in any form or shape, hopefully not as borrowed power though.
