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

[Santandame]

Some people really will get hyped for anything won’t they?

Class skins and war bands sound good but the Earthen allied race is just ridiculously lame. I feel very whelmed at the trailer.

Sounds like they announced all three because The War Within just seems so meh from what’s been shown.

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

Avaloren isnt even coming

Was just a very well done fake.

And then speculating on it during the long wait for WoW we did indeed accidentally make a cooler expansion.

ACCOUNT WIDE REPUTATIONS VIA WARBANDS. HOLY SHIT!!!!!!!

This made my day.

[justwatching]

I have to say though im extremely intrigued by Season of Discovery....they cooked up something very interesting there.

So happy its fake.

Guess Teriz and Varodoc both died of heart attacks

[Sydrache]

I'm so underwhelmed. It feels like we're going to get 3 smaller expansions. When I saw warband I thought maybe we would get AI controlled parties like in FF but no. The cinematic was marginally better than DFs

[Jodmos]

Beautiful art in the press packet.

That looks a bit like one of the 'leaked' zone screenies.

11.0 Knights of Avaloren
Cinematic summary:
- The man narrates about fortune on the sea
- The camera pans over the map of Azeroth, from the EK to Kalimdor, and even further
- Silver-skin dwarves are seen to escort chained pirates: a night elf and a troll (the narrator)
- They take the elevator, and the camera reveals they were underground
- The elevator rises to the surface that is a Titan-themed coliseum on a cliffy formation, overcrowded with silver and bronze dwarves
- The dwarven lady with a green crown (queen?) announces that outlanders shall fight alongside the lion knight
- The knight is Anduin, and he wears his lion helmet
- Dwarves release harpies that appear to be buffed with the void magic
- Anduin and the outlanders fight harpies
- Dwarves chant a battle song while the fight is on, and they stop when harpies are defeated
- Anduin takes off his helmet, and it is revealed he is noticeably older than in the BFA cinematic, with facial hair and a scar
- The troll says the fate has brought him to Avaloren

Anduin with facial hair --- called it here!

[hawtlol]

Imagine bitching about everything they just announced. You people can't be pleased.

[Makabreska]

Well, they defo try new things. Excited.

[Ashahalasin]

Excited for all except horde dwarves. That's a real gut punch for faction identity of the alliance.

[Nerdslime]

yall i am unbearably hype

[Draedarr]

Has the potential of being a huge and great expansion, we were going to have the underground zone beneath Northrend back in Wrath, but lots of expansions later we get it finally

[Chickat]

Algarian Stormrider by the way:

Soar through the skies of Khaz Algar and into the depths below with this fully customizable, lightning-infused gryphon. This mount comes in four color variants and 42 customizable options, resulting in millions of designs to choose from.

We arent even going to Khaz Algar so why is it called that?

[DahurgTheDragon]

Oh... Alleria is gonna get messed up.

They made her into a lesbian?

[Cheezits]

Wait, does this mean the Earthen are neutral? Or will Midnight have a Horde race (Forest Trolls??)

[Keyalios]

Where the panel for WoW? I thought they said same stage same stream?

[Kiivar86]

I'm pretty pleased, this wasn't what I expected (I as team Avaloren) but intrigued.

That said, it does come across to me as a sort of wrap-up for WoW. Will need to see how things are quality wise.

Wait, does this mean the Earthen are neutral? Or will Midnight have a Horde race (Forest Trolls??)

Seems that way. And I would imagine each expansion has one for both sides too. Probably some sorta elf.

[Dald]

Avaloren isnt even coming

It'll probably be a zone in the latter half of the expansions.
