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

[Xilurm]

Are we not getting anything other than the cinematic today?

[Blue42]

Hm..those +leaks+ sound kinda boring.

Except Housing nothing rly intresting.

No new class(es)? No bigger group size? No new role = support?
No new indepth mechanics/stuff to do like rly dangerous outdoor zones where we can farm rly nice stuff in a grp?

Sad :/

So I just wanted to share a wishlist while we are getting closer to the reveal of midnight. This is not a leak or spoiler or anything, just things I would love to see added to midnight.

- Make the story great again: I really liked K'aresh main campain and for the first time it felt like a real rpg. My main criticism is x.1 patches. Both in DF and TWW X.1 patches felt like a side quest not the continuation of the plot. If they really want to add zones like undermine and expand on races story that is not 100% connected to the main campain, they can do what 8.2 did. We had both the main campain in Nazjatar and a side story in Mechagon that felt good. Now that Midnight is the first expansion where Chris Metzen was envolved in it, I have a very high hope for the narrative.

- New interesting races like Naga, Ethereal and Oger. Move things like High Elf and Forest Trolls to be subraces instead. Imo they don't deserve the word 'new race'

- New borrowed power that is friendly to the casual players but keep grindy players like me interested in the game and add both gameplay and story like Artifact Weapons.

- A new void themed class. I feel like we already have atlesast 1 or 2 classes for each cosmic force except void that has Shadow Priest that doesn't cover the whole void power fantasy imo. I hope atleast we get the void themed third spec of the DH

- Give players more options in the story. Let us make villainous or gray choices, even ally with Xal'ataht but face the consequences at the end. I'm tired to be the Champion of Azeorth with every single of my characters and ally with the Light (This might not work in WoW after 20 years but we can still do some experiments)

- Raids especially the last one in the expansion need more bosses or add mini 2 3 bosses raid between the 8 bosses main raids.

- Leveling system overhaul. I like the idea that legion remix is doing with World tiers to make leveling more challanging and fun instead of feeling like a speedrun to get max level asap.

Are you confusing the high side tips that he's always had, from his beard, with a mustache?

No, it's a mustache. That's how I see it. That's how Blizzard sees it, and you mustache haters are going to deal with it.

[Monkal]

Here. Have it. Hate it as much as I do.

This is obviously AI-generated.

The portraits, I mean.

Page 5232. What page will we end on before the reveal? I am predicting around Page 5307. I predict there will be something major within the next 6 hours that makes this forum go wild.

Cinematic AND Gameplay Trailer (will go up on the WoW website immediately after the cinematic reveal). So, we should be able to pre-order, explore the website with features, AND watch the Gameplay Trailer!

If something major enough leaks we could even hit 5400. The last two hours tend to get wild here.

So, I was checking the code on the Blizzard shop in hopes of finding anything similar to the Bolvar leak back in Shadowlands, didn't find anything about midnight but there is one string about a Samwise spellbreaker art. The link does not work as intended however

Question is, what will be the domain for the website? I'm refreshing these three:

https://eu.shop.battle.net/en-gb/pro...craft-midnight
https://midnight.blizzard.com/en-gb/
https://worldofwarcraft.blizzard.com/en-gb/midnight

Ahh I remember the good old days when this is how we tried to find the correct expansion name.

I recall that we searched the trademark databases to find the name.

I hate world peace.

[Nymrohd]

I hate world peace.

Well then, nothing to hate currently.

Considering it's an Elf and Void Expa, it would be logical for Azshara to participate. Naga as a neutral playable race.
It would also be great to have Satyr.

Honestly people would go nuts over a naga playable race! But I still think ethereals is more likely
