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

[Varodoc]

Looks like Draenei will also get a foothold in Silvermoon, since we're supposedly teaming up with the Light forces to drive back the Void.

So expect to see some Naaru crystals and possibly a spaceship in Revamped Silvermoon.

It is logical. Velen pretty much saved Quel'Thalas from destruction at the end of TBC and ushered in a new golden age for the nation. Why shouldn't the Draenei be allowed to have some kind of foothold in Quel'Thalas (along with the Ren'dorei and Quel'dorei ofc)?

That pretty much confirms no secret 10.3. I guess 6 months of 10.2 and another Fated Season.

No 10.3 has been confirmed in interviews. I'd expect 10.2.5 and 10.2.7 to continue the story with planting Amirdrassil and blessing the new Aspects though and then maybe a 10.2.9 for a Fated Season.

[Makabreska]

Well, I am super hyped. Everything they show us about zones/dungeons/raids looks great. No immediate cosmic/inter-dimensional stuff after DF makes me very happy.

[Hyrja]

They're definitely doing a "season 4" this expac so that'll last us through next fall hopefully.

[Makabreska]

gotta be devils advocate here, 3 days early acess really isnt any loss of character progression , M+ and raiding isnt out, basically in dragonflight you could only farm rares for the first 2 weeks, itl create a fomo effect and drive sales of course, would only be problematic if you got season content early

I am pretty sure this will be soon an industry standard. An absolute droves of players bought EA in D4, and that gave you pretty much no advantage.

Fated season.

Super hyped for everything we saw yesterday.

But who made the fake Avaloren screenshots?..

[Syegfryed]

Might be referring to Blood Elves, High Elves and Void Elves?

it might, still is dumb as fuck to reffer then as "tribes", tribes are stuff like tauren or trolls.

That sounds about right. Fated wasn’t very popular with my guild, we had like half quit playing until DF. Was it like that with others?

Everything I’ve read seems good. A bit annoyed that I’m going to have to buy the biggest pre order bundle now for the 3 day early access. Due to my guild wanting everyone leveling up ASAP.

[Scyth]

It is a reprise of Suramar as I see it. Yes Tyrande and the Kaldorei were less than happy about the Nightwell but they still assisted the resistance. And we've found that the Unseen Path had Kaldorei assist High Elves in the past with or without their knowledge. Plus you have highborne among the Kaldorei like Mordant who would likely help Silvermoon and are probably contemporaries of Thalyssra. Heck you could even bring Azshara at the last minute; say we lose whatever fight comes in the second part and Azshara swoops in and saves the day (only to betray us in the end ofc).

You reminded me of the Legion quest and now I would really love to see something similar, all elves united to defend/re-take Silvermoon. Although I can imagine some fans might not be happy to work alongside some of the other elves lol

Make Suramar actually relevant too whilst they are at it!

If your guild more or less forces you to pay extra for epic edition, than that is a dick move.

That's a great sign that your guild kinda sucks.

Err should have worded it better.

They won’t force it; it’s just everyone will have it and I’ll feel left out waiting for 3 days then I’ll feel rushed on catching up. So in a way you feel forced to get it, but your not actually forced..

Honestly i hate the 3 day early access stuff for 90$ version.

I will be buying the normal version but it sucks now, getting ready to play the expansion at the same time as everyone else was cool and now they did this shit.

It is very interesting how their whole presentation yesterday was "from us to players" but then they add early access to sub based game on top of new expansion, it's just weird.

Silvermoon should at the very least get a proper harbor with a boat link to Suramar. if things go really south, they could even have blood elf civilian refugees go to Suramar; maybe we start the expansion there.

Getting caught up on all the Blizzcon news. Did they give a release date for The War Within?

Fall 2024 presented in a few spots.

So between September 23rd and November 30th

Id venture to guess they are aiming for a month long prepatch starting in August 2024 ending in September 2024. With this assumption, you can assume at worst, assuming we get absolutely zero content between November 7th 2023 and August 2024 we are looking at a drought of 9 months, one of the shortest ever however. I think it's safe to assume we are gonna get atleast one more content drop between Tuesday and August, and this isn't even factoring in a possible S4.

[Valysar]

Good morning everyone !

Still no 3k pages ?

Unless there is some decent pre-season gear that requires an extensive grind, normal 1 week of prep should be enough.

the mystery remains as far as I am aware

one complaint ive heard is some people felt like they would of gotten CE if there was no season 4 due to the extra time in a usual drought , what if for season 4 in dragonflight they just let you get CE with killing the boss on a relatively similar tuning? or instead of a new season with increased ilvls bring the old ones up and let you keep progging emerald dreams lots of different routes i think they could go while still keeping the positives.

If you didn't get CE because of Fated... You were not getting CE without fated lmao.
