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

[Nerdslime]

What I Want Wishlist:
EK/Kalimdor Full Revamps
Playable Mok'nathal (or Ogres I guess) and Broken/Krokul)
Glyph Overhaul bringing racial/power source flavor into class spells (Elune/An'she light themes for priests/paladins, shadowflame warlocks, pandaren elementals, etc)
More racial/faction focused stories and rewards
A further step back from impending Cosmic Disco war for at least one more expansion

What we'll probably get:
Storm dwarves
Titan/Void focus
Another new mysterious land

Good list! (and then Meh List, respectively)

I can confirm the new class is artificer, I didn't see what the specs were. The Avaloren screenshots appear to be faked.

Oh hello. How do you know?

Oh lord , no...

Finally Gilneas in Elwynn Forest!

If you can make a dead Teriz Jizz, be my guest.

It's not exactly out of the realm of possibilities. We don't know exactly how much is mechanical on Teriz.

[Aucald]

Eh, I'd probably still play it, lol.

I'm still a bit weirded out that I had a dream about a WoW expansion reveal. I blame this thread, actually.

[ercarp]

I had a weird dream that the next expansion was titled "Leaves of Air," and introduced with no teaser trailer or further details, leaving everyone wondering what in the hell was happening or what it was going to be about.

What would a leaf of air even be? That's literally nothing since it's air.

I can actually smell that logo.

This probably goes along with my previous post(s);

*Chris Metzen walks on stage*
FURIOUS APPLAUSE
*Chris Metzen Backflips live on stage*
STANDING OVATION
*Chris Metzen softly coughs, clearing his throat*
Audience Settles
"Buy. My. Game."
Every member of the audience instantly faints, Ion Hazikozztas walks on stage with a dagger that he drives through his own heart.

No Gameplay is shown. No Expansion(s) are announced. Metzen just walks off as an upbeat tune plays and the livecasters commentate his swagger off stage.

and

Yeah I really thought the weirdest part of Blizzcon 2023 was when Ion Hazzikoztas took the stage and just began reading everyone's Social Security Numbers aloud and passing a judgement of 1 through 10 based on his subjective opinion of how easy it was to say the number out loud.

It was also really bizarre when Metzen walked up afterwards and just started pointing at a blank wall yelling get ready for the Splash Mode and a poorly photoshopped image of Phil Spencer appeared edited to appear like he was fighting in the Dark Below Zone of Splashran.

World Revamp confirmed!

Gilneas revamped

[Sondrelk]

It's always been a Worgen's world, and you're just living in it.

Maybe this expansion has been waiting until we got enough races that fit the bill. First we had Tauren, then Worgen. Now at last we have Vulpera and Dracthyr. Now finally the expansion we have all been waiting for is ready.

It's Avaloren. Inside the building and helping get things set up. will post pics here in a few minutes when I can snag a picture.

That would be an interesting choice. If true, I too wonder what the specs would be.

You guys have to decide what it is.

Please let it be a space expansion where I can play a Draenei Artificer with a mech suit...

[Puupi]

I can actually smell that logo.

What does a furry smell like?

[Aucald]

What would a leaf of air even be? That's literally nothing since it's air.

Maybe it was a play on words? I can't really tell you - I don't honestly know myself. Maybe it's an expansion based on Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves?

That's an easy cop-out, just blame us.

Truly we live in the darkest timeline.

Come on? No Gnolls? No Cat People? No Kobolds (not the current ingame WoW ones, but the more typical fantasy ones)

We're not even close!

[Redwyrm]

What pictures can you get from inside the convention hall? Almost everything worth seeing is going to be a powerpoint/video display.

It's not like they will have the expansion logo and features on poster boards spread around the room for selfies.

What does a furry smell like?

Smelly I guess.
