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

[Raetary]

Hello

Is there a new build today ?

If so, i wonder what will be the new zone for today build.

They are testing them in order, next zone is Hallowfall.

[dadori]

I honestly just hate the general direction they are taking regarding exploring new zones and such, aka giving flying from start while leveling kinda kill any connection with the zones and remove any immersion.

I always loved fighting my way up a mountain or a road full of mobs to reach a quest mini boss etc, instead of now flying directly and landing on top of it.

Wishful thinking, but I hope we see some npc representation of the Hero specs. I don't mean every npc, but like every once in a while you'll see an npc using a set of Hero skills or something and it's like "oh, that's an exceptional Warrior who has trained in a Hero tree like we adventurers do!"

Isn't that the whole premise?
Keeper of the Grove - Cenarius
Dark Ranger - Sylvanas
Mountain Thane - Magni
Sunfury - Kaelthas
Shadow-pan - Taran Zhu
Rider of the Apocalypse - The Horsemen
Sanlayn - Deathbringer Saurfang, ironically
Scalecommander - Scalecommander Emberthal
etc

[Dracullus]

What is there about to wonder? Next zone is the third zone of course lol.

Looks like it will be Hallowfall indeed, but both in SL and DF Alpha zones were not tested in order.

I wonder which npc char inspiration they took for colossus and slayer warrior hero specs, i can't really think of any(DH's have slayer title in game).

Warlord and Gladiator i could easily say which characters were the inspirations when making them(if they decided on them instead), but not those 2 we have.

Hero Talents are honestly all over the place right now. The Hunter trees for example are an absolute joke both from the gameplay and the fantasy perspective.

Right, and you just listed all the ones that have a Hero represented. None of the other really.

Trickster, Totemic, Spellslinger, Packleader, Archon, Flameshaper, Chronowarden, Slayer, Colossus, what about them?

The idea is that they are cool ideas to take the class to, simple as that. Some of them are based on heroes, obviously, but the main idea was just "Oh yeah, that's a cool idea".

While in isolation the idea of adding nps to represent these specs is nice, but considering WoW already has too many characters who get too little screentime, which we rarely see in combat anyway, I would vote against it.

Oh i would do the same, i just find colossus and slayer very generic.

Btw. New blue post is out and it looks like they didn't edit Darkspear troll heritage armour like many players suggested but it seems like for the helm sock on the nose, there will be 2 additional head pieces.

Darkspear troll players will receive two additional head-slot cosmetic items tied to the storyline.

Do we know if getting banned 2-3 times on WoW forums can lower the chance of having alpha ?

[Throren]

also alpha servers just went down

Blizz hasn't known what to do with hunter for years. It's pretty sad that it had more class fantasy back in BC/Wrath with visible quivers, wide variety of pet abilities, and different FX for different ammo than it does now.

[dadori]

I have been maining Hunter since Cataclysm and the current version is the worst experience and least fun i ever had with hunter.

I dare ask why.... generally having strikes for anything on your account goes against you.

Because french forums are full of wokist activists that litteraly HATE any criticism, even constructive ones, and report anything that doesn't go their way

I would take naga over ethereals because you can have 2 forms there.

Ethereal models and how they look just speak cool npc only to me, not really having a face, emotions on face or the weird idle stance that would make it horrible for most armors to work, not even mentioning the crazy clipping but who knows, i just don't see it.

Warrior in naga form just sounds cooler.

EDIT: Overall i think that we won't get new race in midnight but new class that will be available to most if not all races, i would hate if they did the same mistake again with class being only available for one race that visually is veery controversial for many.

You just know they are going to give us the dracthyr version of Nagas. Agender snake blobs.

The Golden Rule - It's NEVER the banned guy fault.

Oh trust me, a lot of ppl are complaining, sometimes yes, I'm the faulty guy, sometimes... not at all

Sounds very incel 4chan to me.

I was rewatching the Dawn of the Infinite cinematic and it kinda moves me more towards "Iridikron isn't gonna be an antagonist", because he does raise a good point

Your faith means nothing to them. As you burn in the flames of my brother's wrath, they will not come. All they wanted was our world.

And the Titans did not help us in any way whatsoever. In fact, the Aspects were blessed by Azeroth, not any of the Titans. I suspect him allying with Xalatath literally is just a gambit to get the Titans to come to Azeroth so he can beat their asses. (Edit: Right, he literally says that) This combined with us upsetting the Titans by "freeing" the Earthens of their edict starts to put the pieces into place.
