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

I think it will be just some quick post raid questline that won't be tested on PTR at all.

Probably true.

[DatToffer]

What the hell? Are you really trying to gatekeep story behind world "content"?

I hate it when I play Pokemon and they gatekeep the Elite Four with Champion fights.

[Raetary]

I don't mind the rep requirement, but i do mind how far into the rep the story quests are set.

By the time a regular player reaches it, they probably already have had the story spoiled for them by literally any website unless they are full on grinding reputations like a maniac.

And when the rest of the game is not casual friendly, why must the story be?

It's casual friendly that someone needs to grind like a maniac for 2 weeks to stay on top of story chapters?

No? I said the opposite very much the opposite. Raiding is not casual friendly; the final boss is only available to casuals more than a month later for casuals. Why should access to the story be immediate if access to the raid is not?

Have we seen what the 10.0.5 content in Primalist Future is? I fully expect it to just be a world quest or something but I don't think I've heard about it yet

It's a slightly more involved version of the usual primalist invasion. As in there's actual objectives and stuff.
Also a weird warmth/cold gimmick that you need to manage.
There's some extra rewards like a mount and some pets, so it should be worth checking out.

Cool, I guess a grind for a few extra hours of gaming

Yeah no don't put the new NE capitol in the Dragon Isles, leave it elsewhere.

Can put it in Shadowlands.

There is a difference between having to do a linear storyline like in Pokemon and having to do repeatable grind like in Dragonflight.

Ha I forgot repeatable grind was not a thing anymore in pokemon.

Looks like an encrypted build of 10.0.7 just got pushed, which means 10.0.5 must be really close to release. I smell a release date.

I guess they might push it after LFR is complete instead of waiting for sparks questline?

Tbf, the last time I had to actually grind levels on my pokemon was like 4 gens ago. Today you easily overlevel anything thanks to xp share and instant-level ups via raids.

So looks like new primalist future "invasions" are just primal storms 1.2. I hope 10.1 will bring some proper new content instead of another aoe fest grind.

Pretty much what they advertised it as in the blue post. This one has actual objectives though instead of just killing mobs.

Hopefully it ends up decently interesting. Really has been my main issue with the Primal Storms we have now.
The addition of extra rewards does imply that the essence currency will be a reward from various content. And i do appreciate the Primalist Future area will be used more.

[Zulggun]

So it's Primal Storms + Grand Hunts.

[Dracullus]

I'm glad primalist thing is some actual piece of content, especially since storms right now are probably weakest part of DF. It's already tested on PTR right?

Legion timewalking in 2 weeks, sounds like date they would aim for mage tower re-re-release (yeah, I know it will be pernament). Another thing are new Elders for Lunar festival, it's so minor it would be strange to move it to 10.0.5 if you don't intend to release patch before or early during event.

So, if everything is already on PTR, my money goes on release candidate in days, patch next week with mage tower launching week after that.

Honestly the new patch seems to be coming quite quick so I doubt they would introduce new 'crazy' features. I'm happy with how it looks right now. Could be worse honestly...

Yeah I don't see what's exciting about WoW's spreadsheet cosmology.

Didn't the Broker Cosmology Chart show that this neat, compartmentalized view was just a mortal interpretation, and one of many, drawing lines where there might not really be any, simplifying cosmic concepts to be able to grasp them?

The Broker Cosmology Chart is the same, neat compartmentalized view just rotated slightly to favour Death above other forces.
