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

[Cheezits]

WoD Remix is doable if all the rare items are unlockable through Bronze, it just wouldn't have much draw for people who have already collected all the stuff in WoD as there weren't as many unused items as MOP.

So are we thinking the green line is Legion Remix then? Seems it's purposely changing colors as a sort of hint like they did with the skull and bones last year.

As long as it's semi-private instances and not beholden to lottery crap like XIV it's VERY hard to fuck up Housing in general.

UI design is not easy for it. Will it have free placement? Will it have profession interactions? Is it all in one neighborhood or is there going to be variety? Prebuilt homes with a specific plan, free to built or modular? I don't know I think there are many options on how to implement it and I don't know how well they each work.

Welp, prepare yourselves for yet even more years of, “tinkers are for sure the next class…”

What does "Season Rewards Refresh" mean for 11.2?

[micwini]

I'm not bothered. Return it Karazhan was the only one I truly felt deserved to be a Megadungeon. Each one after just felt like more and more of an obligation.

Two dungeons, each one with more love and attention, and only interesting boss concepts sounds more fun to me.

You realise there is only 1 new normal dungeon right? Not 2. Motherlode is from BFA

[Dracullus]

I wonder when the 11.1 PTR starts.

Maybe January?

Considering Christmas break, I think maybe even before next patch, just like 10.1 PTR.

Second is in 11.2.

Could just be s confirmation that there will be a Delves Season 3 with unique rewards. Or new mounts from Keystone Master, etc.
Hard to say, really.

Damn. Did we trade a zone for a dungeon then? Because no 'new zone' in 11.2. I missed that completely.

The roadmap showed another new dungeon in 11.2. We don't know what that one is yet, but they're doing a new dungeon in each major patch this time.

ion said housing wouldn't happen without a serious engine upgrade. i wonder if we're going to get a graphical upgrade next expansion

1 new dungeon now, 1 new dungeon in 11.2.
Sane amount of M+ dungeons, just with twoseparate dungeons rather than a Megadungeon split in two.

Looks to be the case, though Siren Isle isn't listed as a new zone, so we may get a mini zone after Undermine.

No new zone is a bit weird. Especially as we know Rootlands was being worked on. Possibly they scrapped it fully and didn't come up with anything to replace it with in time. Or its possible it's a small enough area they don't want to advertise it as a new zone when it's possibly more like Siren Isle in terms of size

[Kiivar86]

They could do like they did with BfA and have the "new" zone be refurbished old ones.

[Dracullus]

Looks like that. Probably it will be just tunnel straight to Worldcore. So Rootlands are either 11.2 dungeon or scrapped.

That is part of why I believe Midnight to be a Northern EK update.

I doubt it. I think he meant more in terms of under the hood updates. Like needing to update the engine to allow object placements by players in a more intuitive and less resource intensive way.

[milkmustache]

Oh-- well I guess that the banner is fel green. The rune could be something remix/bronze dragonflight related (or a new spin on it), and we'll see Legion remix.

[Cheezits]

I think no large Rootlands is as simple as they didn't know how to diversify it enough from the Dream. Per lore hints, it is very likely part of if not the TRUE version of what the Dream could be without Titans.

I think it will be the dungeon.
