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

I think that's surprisingly more Ethereal than Xal'atath. Maybe etherealraid was the real friend along the way.

No way it's a K'aresh raid, right? Rootlands/Ethereal? Segue into Ethereal as allied race?

I think beledar raid. Beledar has also some runes that would fit the PVP cloak, the patches after undermine have a new event called nightfall which fits the Nightfall Sanctum Delve that houses the Order of the Night in Hallowfall. And the Order of the Night have not appeared outside of one dungeon, a delve and the story through hallowfall, while being the remaining Void Forces on Khaz Algar after the Nerubians were defeated.

Ok, imma say it. Goblins have grills, ACs, radios, cars, etc. Why do they still use old feathered pens and not typewriters? Been seeing a whole bunch of them in Undermine, and it's confusing asf.

Maybe there are typewriters and I just didn't see them? I'll have to double check.

Typewrites don't use electricity or gasoline or any other fuel, so they have not figured that out yet

It quite literally shouldn't be hard for them to do lol. Heck, I'm fine with them using Pens, since we still use Pens IRL, but an alternative would be cool to see at least lol.

[Jaggler]

typewriters can't detonate, so they aren't that interesting for goblins.

To be fair, the alliance/horde have guns, turrets, mech suits, spaceships, tanks, etc but still fight with swords/bows.

Fair. Guess I just have to suspend my disbelief, huh? Lol

Looool that is true.

Interdimensional ships. Powered by magic.

[Valysar]

Not a big fan of D.R.I.V.E., seems to be a bit too fast.
Gonna be worse on "bad" computers.

[Black Rider]

Anything in the game files that points to Dalaran 2.0?

[Zardas]

I'm sure they can find a way to make them explode.

Also, for those who are on the PTR, are regular mounts usable in Undermine, or just the Drive thingy ?

There won't be another Dalaran.

[Worldshaper]

How many calcified chunks of Azerite did they say existed, again? I mean big ones, like the Beledar.

Hot take, but what if the 5 angelic forms the priestess Mereldar saw in her dreams were 5 Naaru.

The same 5 suns from the Pandaren story, perhaps (4 were shot down).

Then they crashed on Azeroth.

Then the Titans covered it up in the Shaping of Kalimdor, essentially burying the story and the Naaru along with it.

Then the Titans lied to us, claiming it was just strange Azerite down there.

Maybe the Beledar is the 5th (the fallen star), now going dark. 5 torches that have faded, paving the way for the Void. No longer able to protect the Worldsoul.

(Elun'Ahir was another method to try and protect it, while the Manifold was more like a prison.)

There won't be another Dalaran.

There won't be another flying city going around as Azeroths police force. But Dalaran is likely getting rebuilt in some fashion.

No, it won't be built, it was said on the questline.

Actually, what's interesting is that with Ink Ribbons, Typewriters are a product of mass production. The Goblin are technologically advanced but live in a world without mass production. Everything has to be made by hand. Ergo, a world with cars & appliances but not typewriters or plastics.

[Lady Atia]

No, it won't be built, it was said on the questline.

I mean, they also said in Cataclysm that the Aspects had lost their powers and the "age of mortals" would be upon us, and that was a cinematic instead of some side questline. I doubt we will get it anytime soon, but never say never.

That said, I'm sure new-Dalaran will be build where the crater is now, and it won't fly around. Fits with the theme of homecoming, and could make a nice spot for housing.

I very much doubt that, and i don't see how one can come to that conclusion when the Kirin Tor questline was pretty implicit about Dalaran being gone for good, and Aethas straight up questioned whether rebuilding Dalaran was a good idea or not in the first few quests.

The Kirin Tor will likely become more decentralized faction and spread out across multiple bases all over Azeroth.

Well Dalaran was not just the Kirin Tor and the Council of Six, but also a lot of just regular people going after their daily lives, who called that place home. I could see some small settlement near the crater of those people. No major magical city, just a smallish town.

I dunno. questioning Dalaran fett kg rebuilt was during the beginning of the quest line when Aethas was having a bit of a breakdown.
By the end of the quest line the only thing the Kirin Tor says for sure is that they won't have a council of all powerful mages, and they won't make another flying city.
Rebuilding Dalaran is more than those two things, it's also about teaching new mages. Having a place for people who used to live in Dalaran to love. And maintaining their history.

As has been said. There is a crater in Hillsbrad where Dalaran used to be. I think it likely they will simply rebuild Dalaran there. And whenever the Kirin Tor is needed they will simply travel to the place without also bringing with them the entire city.
