It would be a kinda random moment for him to die, IMO. He's done pretty much nothing for 3 expansions, and then comes back for a pre-patch that kills him? Maybe he'll live on in a simulacrum or something.

He's a major character in DF, he appears in the first cinematic and helps you in the first raid, and then does nothing. His story in DF was kinda dropped like lots of other stories and characters this expansion, DF is a mess.

This shoulda been the Paladin tier set.

I bet he was supposed to play a big part in whatever content was supposed to be in Vakthros. No way they had it feature so much in promo material & the cinematic for it to have not been planned for anything.

Yeah and other people have to look at your choice though. I care that it looks goofy. Class specific gear should stay that way.

Bullshit. I can turn into an ape with a glowing pink sphere or a 20ft tuaren with bright orange wings and you have to see it, why would it be a bad thing for my fury warrior to transmog fist weapons if he wants?

And actually, class sets are one of the few restrictions I think should stay

And as always, the shield clips the shoulder armor. Oh well, I'll have the shield-side shoulder bare for Prot.

Works great with Ashbringer as I'd hoped

Earthen are bigger than dwarves but weapons equipped on them have the same size as the ones held by dwarves, so they look tinier in comparison.

It looks great with Fyralath, Amirdrassil 2H red sword and aberrus neltharion's 2H sword as well!

Anyone have a lead on a composite mini-map map for Khaz'algar? Stuff like https://old.wow.tools/maps/Azeroth/1...-42.000/29.000. In the past I'd just wait for Mr bird to add it to wow.tools but since theyve soft retired from that project was curious if anyone knew of a different site for the full map.

I know wowhead had a small section of Isle of Dorn in the dalaran article they posted earlier.

Edit: Nobbel showed it in his first impressions video. Time stamp link for anyone else interested: https://youtu.be/LloUhgrpxlY?t=316

Going off that Isle of Dorn & Azj-Kahet look to be pretty large, while hallowfall looks slightly smaller (not counting the vast open spaces above the underground sea. And The ringing deeps looks a little smaller again, tho if its like Blizz mentioned at blizzcon it should have some areas that open up to land above.

Blizz saw every Paladin player complain about the Priest Aberus set and decided to give them wings in their set too, but that one looks much more of a Priest set than a Paladin one tbh lol

I think Metzen just came back and started the whole world soul saga so they changed a lot in DF to make it work.

Some of the best outdoor sets we've ever seen, damn

I think both the 10.1 and the 10.2 outdoor sets were exceptional tbh.

True, they're supposed to look a bit better as they're end game sets though, these ones seem to be questing/rep gear? They look on par with tier sets though

Where can I find a size comparison?

Well they are just gained for completing the campaign so I would not call them end game.

Haven't seen it but you can compare the weapon size in the wowhead dressing room while changing between dwarf and earthen.

The same happenned with amirdrassil questing sets, they look better than most 10.2 tier sets.

[Mecheon]

We would but all the Fawna & Venthyr also had functional customization.

I guess we can just add Harromir & Arathi to the Fawn, Venthyr, Tuskarr & Gnoll allied races we should have gotten & now never will.

No they didn't? Venthyr aren't anywhere remotely player model compatible to the point the Legion NPC Nightborne are closer, and while the sylvar could theoretically be adjusted to (They're based on Draenei so inherit a lot of that stuff), they haven't been fully set up for it

These new guys are fully player ready though. The only new nes they've added player ready but unused recently were the thin humans in BFA

Good group interview. I noticed that they clarified that the arachnophobia filter will NOT work on the Humanoid Nerubians. They said it's because they couldn't find a good replacement... but... what if it's because of a different reason?

They won't be an allied race, guaranteed

So three seasons plus maybe a fated/awakened season seems to be the long term plan.
And I would definitely prefer to be able to set dynamic flight on/off on a per mount basis. That way I can have separate mounts for either task.

I really hope the missing cloak is an indicator that the wings are actually the backpiece. I hate it when they put wings or floating stuff on the shoulders because it always looks silly if your character starts moving or you play anything but the human/elf races.

[Nymrohd]

I am surprised at how robotic the earthen are. The Northrend ones certainly did not feel like this
