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

[Fahrad Wagner]

Khaz algar is 1 zone in revamp expansion

pretty much this :>

[FlemmMinis]

Most of them are either locations in Northrend or even more likely, sunk beneath the ground. The sundering pretty much halved Kalimdor.

Thus time travel

Well back to refreshing every certificate website , 4chan /v board and refreshing the WoW website page everty 15 pin inspecting shit for any clue lmao

[Colonel Sandor]

Didn't they add one for Rogues as well when they made Draenei Rogues available?

They did, yes.

[Keyalios]

I noticed while leveling earlier they added a new Warlock trainer to the Exodar this patch alongside Draenei Warlocks.

Probably doesn't mean anything, but I do find it interesting they went through the effort of adding an NPC to a zone most players will never go to.

Yes that happened when the lock changes went game wide, or maybe with the Man’ari? Regardless it was heavily discussed on the story forums.

Thus time travel

[Murlocos]

If I had a dime for every time an expansion about traveling to a strange, unknown land that was previously hidden away from the world for 10,000 years was then followed by a time travel expansion, etc. etc.

We knew they existed. That's it. We had no idea what was there. I'd say we know MORE about Avaloren than we knew about Pandaria. As for the Shadowlands the few things hinted in lore before the expac were completely ignored.

Uh we knew Pandaren were on Pandaria since WC3, and we knew what Pandaren looked like and that they were Asian inspired culturally. We even had a native class from there; The Brewmaster.

That’s 10x the info we currently have on Avaloren.

What do the heretics on Avaloren look like? We have no clue. We don’t even know what race they are.

This, but there has been some interesting speculation about Harrowsdeep (Iridikron's lair) lining up roughly below Icecrown citadel. It's described as a massive sinkhole, which is curious when we know that Naz'anak is situated directly below ICC. The description of Harrowsdeep's interior decor matches up nicely, too. It could well be that the Nerubians claimed the empty tunnels that Iridikron's followers once carved out.

The fissure in khaz algar could very well be time-related

I've slowly learnt to enjoy it. In about a day and a half we will go from this to people complaining the new expansion is boring and the game is dead so best enjoy this thread now

Yeah honestly same. The riddles still annoy me a bit but that's more because my brain just doesn't work with riddles well. But its fun to log in and go "what new nonsense is going on here"

You had 30 cents?

We need more places like this. Places we know where they are but can't really explore. Maybe include a door that can't be unlocked as well.

[Keyalios]

Honestly novel leaks are a lot more common than game leaks. They have to be ready, in stores, before release day. Almost always some employee who leaks somewhere.

Right now my best bet is a Northrend Revamp. Both Vyranoth and Iridikron's lairs could be mapped there, it is a continent that needs a visual update but doesn't necessarily need to be scaled up, Odyn and the Keepers are there, there is an obvious underground zone, pretty much most of the assets needed to revamp it exist. But while I can make suggestions on where Khaz Algar could be and tie it to a Northrend Revamp, nothing fits perfectly. Heck the Algarian Stormriders could just be Frostborn.

Before even playing it or waiting for actual stories to develop ofcourse.

I thought Dragonflight was mostly inoffensive, but a bit boring. Yet there's people out here saying it's the worst expansion ever

That’s interesting, because there’s a nerubian reference in Zalarek Caverns.

Both Wowhead and reddit have summaries.
