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

[Dracullus]

So looks like typical stuff like BfA timewalking/brawler's guild will be moved for 10.1.7 (likely with another turbulant timeways event), 10.1.5 sounds huge already.

Yup, and heritage armor. Makes sense all things considered as they may play into the Dream patch.

[Makorus]

I am so happy that there's a new spec, and it's an actual support one. The abilities and design philosophy so far seems great.

To all the naysayers, as promised:

Told you so.

[Lorgar Aurelian]

Can't wait to play as a mag'har warlock, using fel magic while somehow not turning green.

Mabye the green was the demon friends we made along the way!

What does "returning player improvements" mean? Noticed that at the bottom.

[Gurahk]

So I guess the Iridikiron we fight is gonna be PAST Iridikiron, unless he somehow allied with the infinite.

Doubtful, I think he's going into the past to do something with Galakrond. I can see the Infinite letting it happen.

We probably will immediately know once we get some builds in.

HUGE DUNGEON SPOILERS but on twitter, there is concept art of Infinite-Corrupted? Tyr

[Houle]

They updated the text.

From this:

The Infinite Dragonflight, long-standing enemies of the Bronze dragonflight, have worked hard to see their ultimate goal of triggering the transformation of Nozdormu, the Aspect of Time, into Murazond. This eight-boss Mythic-only mega-dungeon will take players across the timeways to stop the Infinite Dragonflight from succeeding. You’ll face Iridikron and Galakrond, among others, as you work to sustain Azeroth’s timeline and put things to rights once more.

They corrected the spelling error from Murozonds name, and removed the mention of "facing Galakrond".

[Cheezits]

Looks like regular ol' Iridikron is the final? boss.

Maybe Galakrond isn't a real boss? I can kind of see why.

[Khaza-R]

Very curious what the imp customizations will be. I wonder if we are finally getting tiki masks for imps like was suggested all the way back in Cata.

Hopefully its eventually expanded to the other demons as well.

Probably allowing people who quit before BFA to level in Chromie Time.

We might be going back in time shortly after Galakrond is dead. Perhaps he isn't a boss. I would find it odd if we never ever fight him in Dragonflight in some form, resurrected or not.

I feel optimistic it will be. The text says how you can go to the barber to customize your pets, plural.

[Cheezits]

What's that disc thing in decay(???) looking smoke?

[Xilurm]

Even so, there should be extra little details gameplay wise to justify this new addition. IMO even the most hardcore lore people could swallow it if such details were added.

At this rate I'd be thankful to even get one.

Like I can understand why warlocks would suddenly be joining in troves I guess? No more burning legion to serve so they instead get offered to join the Alliance or Horde? But then who would trust them? I guess you gotta wave that last part and just pretend it's all ok and forgiven.

Kinda worried about that as well. Would be a pretty huge waste if we go back in time, just to see Galakrond lying around dead again. Weve been looking at dead Galakrond since WotLK. A texture update doesnt change that. Dead Galakrond isnt exciting.

But its probably either that or they dont want to spoil fully Galakrond somehow returning in the teeaser text fro some reason.

[Raetary]

Galakrond seems to be alive in this screenshot:


So, maybe he'll just be a boss mechanic in Iridikrons encounter.

[Sondrelk]

Now that's a big boy.

I wonder how his encounter will work.

My guess would be Galakrond summoning large amounts of undead dragons, as well as breathing fire at us.

My guess would be Blizzard is testing the waters on removing class restrictions completely, starting with a class that doesn't require additional assets like Shaman or Druid.
