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

[milkmustache]

I do think TWS is ridiculously anti-Kalimdor and Kalimdor races besides using the sword, which is in a dead and empty zone until they reveal there's activity underneath. Thats the one thing that makes me hope there is some extra revamps in mind with Midnight. You aren't going to get a horde council implementation in Orgrimmar for years, unless you sneak it into a nice prequel chapter.

I hope that there has to be some Kalimdor content in TWW. Not just Silithus, but maybe Tanaris and more? I can't imagine we totally ignore Kalimdor until 2027ish

Sure, but that was just a patch thing, because they already made a new Darkshore for the Warfronts. Stuff like that wouldn't really fly, and I would hope with a new world revamp, borders would shift a bit.

I predict if they don't revamp Kalimdor & EK entirely in the worldsoul saga, I think TWW will revamp southern Kalimdor (Ahn Qiraj region), Midnight will revamp Lordaeron (Tirisfal region) then the following saga will involve Hyjal & southern half of the eastern kingdoms, completing a post Dragonflight vanilla revamp. So you're right, the zone boarders will change.

Or, as I was hoping, Vyranoth does her heelturn at the end of TLT, and she breaks the Titan technology holding the Elemental Planes, Avaloren, Helheim & Thros in separate pocket dimensions resulting in an Azeroth with a totally new geography.

The ONLY ground to stand on for a lorderon revamp is the whole super excited for midnights features thing. Maybe theyll be doing a larger world revamp to show the void invasion across azeroth and the hype from devs is the revamped world. Don't think thatd be smart either tho cause then the world will be stuck in a massive void invasion which will be very weird when its been defeated at the end of midnight or TLT.

Whole world revamp would be a total overshoot and would definitely be a selling feature, though I could see them trying to keep it secret by teasing Midnight as specifically a Quel'Thalas expansion so that they can have a big moment when they reveal the full revamp (as well as to allow people to actually talk about TWW instead of everyone just skipping it for the big world revamp).

That said, it's almost 100% going to be specifically Quel'Thalas. I do wonder what zones they'll settle on, though, to reach the right size. Maybe they'll trudge up one of the RPG zones.

Interesting, though half these images were part of the press packet. Regular working hours at blizzard start in 15 minutes, gird your loins.

I think they want to do it incrementally to avoid a Cataclysm situation (the same situation they're trying to avoid on classic by making its underwhelming endgame last half as long.) Once they told us they were setting a new expansion in Northrend you know revamping old zones is the entire point.

That is 100% a leak and these are some new images. The webbed up Dalaran feels like a HUGE spoiler... how does that even happen?

Also a Tauren camp in Dragonflight?

Don't grill, will you? What matters is they're real, so where they got them is irrelevant.

Those look like placeholder models that they typically use for height comparisons during world design, though I believe they've almost always used human male models for those. A lot of this stuff looks like early dev and/or straight from their map building tool.

It might just be a vision from a dark future or something of the sort, but I'll yap endlessly about victorious Nervb regardless.

Looking at the Necrolord influences in Nerubian archetecture makes me think of how mad people were at the concept of Maldraxxus in relation to Nerubian culture. As if there wasn't clear titan influence on Dwarf & Zandalari architecture, or Kyrian influence on the Vrykul's architecture.

Not surprising, people who got an alpha preview are probably currently uploading stuff for today's coverage.

Nerubians attack dalaran? https://i.imgur.com/seTKVxz.jpeg
