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

[Paula Deen]

I've thought of this too. Avaloren is patch 10.3.
A new expansion won't get announced. It will get announced sometime in the spring.

Look:

Legion release August 2016
BFA announce November 2017
GAP 15 months

BFA Release August 2018
Shadowlands announce November 2019
GAP 15 months

Shadowlands Release November 2020
Dragonflight announced April 2022
GAP 17 months

Dragonflight release November 2022
New Expansion announce November 2023
GAP less than 12 months

Imagine being so perpetually abused by a shit company that when they start cleaning house and actually releasing ProductTM in a timely fashion you assume something is wrong.

Actually funny.

Interesting, same "eye" design motif as the base Xal'Atath. Makes the dagger now seem like it originated offworld from Azeroth.

Or it is a direct connection to Xal'atath, who is presumably the Harbinger.

Also, big thanks peeps.

[RobertMugabe]

Wrath of the Bolvar has just been announced by mistake.

[Holdodlig]

Can anybody provide a link to the leak google doc ?

[ZyntosAran]

As much as I would love that I just don't see why Blizzard would do that unless they had stories they wanted to tell there. Old players would have no reason to go otherwise aside from a few minutes of "this is neat" factor. And new players are funneled through BFA and get guided away from the old world anyway.

It was coupled with a world revamp, so it would have new quests, wq etc. i guess.

The shape of the larger "blades" of the staff are is to the blade of the dagger

Less than 2 days guys.

I found this while opening boxes at the AI Generated Blizzcon Setup Area. What is this? Leak?

[Stonecloak]

I hope we get a Diablo 4 calibur cinematic in a few days.

[Eldryth]

In addition to this, I think blizzard would come and say not to expect an Expansion announcement already seeing all the hype (not just here) being generated around it if that was the case.

Yeah, didn't they explicitly warn fans that Diablo 4 wasn't ready to be revealed before the Blizzcon where they announced Immortal?

Not that it really did anything to mitigate the reception.

Lady Butter, don't you start- :3

Well, if Xal'atath is the Harbinger, and the Staff called, Stave of the Harbinger, it makes sense, that it ties heavily into the dagger.

[Nebron]

For the record, has there ever been such an accumulation of fake leaks?

The binary leaker and all the crap around... I don't know, it just feels so uninspired and apart from the 4 images there's nothing to latch onto. Every single leak here is just a regurgitated version of Avaloren / Khaz Algar. I'd even gladly accept leaks that eventually will prove themselves to be fake, but at least somewhat creative, out of the box. I get it, Algarian Stormrider kinda killed the leak season early on and dramatically narrowed down the theme, but come one fakers, you can do better

My theory involving playable Ethereals & K’aresh as a starter zone/patch zone is that Xal’atath will try to get something like a part of Dimensius that was left behind on K’aresh.

Could tie in with Scaleface’s leaks.

I think the Binary is uninspired, as do you, but I think its because we have done this before. If the leak season had been without AI generation and all we got was the website leak, the 4 screenshots, and the binary I would be impressed.

The shit AI stuff really delutes the pool.

and the name Voidsong is connected to the book Song of the Deep and to the whisper of N'zoth during DF

I wonder if attaching part/echo of themselves to an object (weapon) is a way for the Void Lords to enter reality. Unlike previously when they could only spit out the tumorous Old Gods.

I mean, the binary leaker would be much cooler, if he dropped the info and was simply gone. The fact that he reacted real time to people's reactions at an ever growing pace was a giving away that he came up with all of that on spot and came here just for applause

[Moth Preacher]

Damn, playable Ethereals would be so cool, I think it will even bring some of "I'm done with WoW" friends I have back into the game

[Cheezits]

Wait, there's an eye in the Harbinger staff?

Eye of Azshara?
