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

its been pretty funny seeing people over the last few days calling for cloak rollbacks, just insane tbh. blizzard didnt rollback things that were a lot worse than this, and that actually affected the live game (artisans consortium shuffle in 10.0, for example)

I really don't get why people are getting so angry about remix raiding when its only tangible rewards are two titles plus the garry stuff (and I don't think this is a normal raiding issue) and you have 3 months to get them. Also when raiding was not the main draw of the game and is mostly a gimmick minigame with how buffs/stats work in Remix.

People would go mental if they had wasted millions of Bronze on upgrades with no refunds possible.

The people who "wasted milions on Bronze on upgrades" exploited anyway, who gives a shit.

New build waiting room...

Kay new dev notes!

Two raid mounts dropping from the first raid is really nice, but I hope it doesn't have any greater implications.

Vault had 2 mounts too, we had that weird experiment with trading specific rings or trinkets for mount.

Wasn't expecting another Tuesday build! Nice!

Eh, Gul'dan had two mount drops too, so I'm not too worried. Though I suppose Nighthold wan't the first raid of the expansion.

Yoooo, story mode diff added to S1 raid. Was this known?

Follower mode for raiding perhaps?

[Cheezits]

Story raids (possibly limited to the final boss only), hidden pants option for transmog, and something hidden about Illidan/TBC it looks like.

[Makorus]

Interesting Campaigns were added:



Intro Skip is whatever, no surprise.

Do not Translate Campaign could be anything.

But a reference to a Legendary is incredibly interesting

I know some people hated them but I enjoyed the legendary campaigns in MoP and WoD. Personally would love to get them back. They are very much borrowed power tbh but they give a throughline to the expansion that most modern expacs have been missing.

With story mode they should merge LFR and Normal. Normal difficulty/rewards - but keep LFR buff you get after you wipe, accessible both from LFR menu and manually like heroic dungeon.

Mhm there were also all those TBC recolors in 10.2.6. I think they are cooking something there. Maybe Remix TBC sometime early next year.

Yeah agreed. The existence of a story mode opens up the possibility of matchmade raiding that is actually a somewhat fun experience.

I think the "Questline Legendaries" are the tamest form of borrowed power, and I generally enjoy them.

Plus, they serve as a soft-nerf for Raids, which the game desperately needs since the Upgrade system.
I enjoy random drop legendaries, but then again, generally I am lucky, and if I had to choose, I would definitely go for a questline one.

It's new this build, check frontpage for some more details as Wowhead missed a few.

[justwatching]

The legendary is probably just related to a drop legendary quest line. Like Fyrakk and the glove thing.

I personally love the changes they did to M+ with S4 and it is time they rethink Raiding as well.

Eh.

It's hard to change raiding without alienating someone, so I think they are better off just keeping it as is.

People like to complain about how there are "too many difficulties!", but realistically, no guild will ever run more than two difficulities consistently anyway.

You merge Normal and LFR, and all of a sudden, the dad guild has to queue with 15 other people during their fun and relaxed evening, which they probably don't want. You remove Heroic, suddenly you alienate every HC-only guild that finds Normal too easy.
