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

[Civciv]

Well Vyranoth parted her way with Fyrakk in a new cinematic, that was expected.

[Santandame]

Would be a next level lie if Blizzard straight up told us that we wouldn't be getting what we very much are.
Far worse than half truths like there being more to Sylvanas, or small additions to a larger patch.

Why wouldnt they simply not say anything?

I mean, if we’re going to split hairs then we don’t know what the “no pirates” was in reference to. The post Qwik responded to was just some guy saying “we don’t want pirates”.

I’m not really inclined to take that as him outright saying we aren’t getting pirates in the next expansion. If he made a statement on twitter saying “guys we are categorically not getting pirates in the next expansion, continue to speculate.” But him just saying “no pirates” to a guy not even speculating on the next expansion just saying they want to see more of EK and Kalimdor with no pirates isn’t really confirmation is it.

Muffinus tweeted that "other stuff might happen this week too", in reference to 10.1.7 and 10.2. Not that we needed it, but it's just further confirmation about the news later in the week.

If this isn't just about the one we already got, then I'm pleasantly surprised that happened this early instead of dragging it out across the whole next patch.

We are so getting South Seas with pirates in 11.0 and the outrage in this thread is going to be glorious.

Dude, it's you that is bragging about inevitable pirate expansion in almost every post. No one knows, chill out, otherwise you'll become meme like Teriz with Tinkers.

Vyranoth switching to our side, that was a cute cinematic

Well that’s not exactly true is it.

For me this video kills the possibility of a world revamp. A visual update is what we are going to get. Why they would bother to update the old world if we were going to get a revamp?

Because the view distance would need to updated anyway. A world revamp wouldn't undo that update. And they can keep the new dragonriding cup if they don't plan on changing the geography.

Ahhh good point.

Go team world revamp then ¡¡ Although I still believe that a phased world revamp would not work.

BTW Vyranoth changed sides so easily that I really hope that it is a plot just to stab Alextrasza in the back. If not, terrible decision of the narrative team IMO. Completely unjustified.

[Civciv]

Vyranoth switched up way too fast lmaooo

Also, I swear to god, if Elune doesn't show up personally to destroy Fyrakk, imma be mad lol

And no one was surprised how fast she switched.

[Raetary]

Now that is a buff keeper of the grove.

And no one was surprised how fast she switched.

No, I would say it's surprising they didn't drag it out through 10.2. That means the plot can focus on something else.

That's a very nice model. Looks like its a character that goes bad, so that COULD be the Eyes of Green finally taken care of?

[Raetary]

That's a very nice model.

It is a cinematic model.

And he is Druid of the flame aligned, gonna pop up in a cinematic eventually.

For that matter, even if they do change it enough that you can't just port them over, what is wrong with having that content be in the old version of EK/Kalimdor while the revamped ones have new ones?

He shows up in the cinematic where Vyranoth parts her way with Fyrakk

has anyone done yet the nelf heritage questline? if yes, how it is?

[Worldshaper]

WoW just posted a 10.1.7 launch trailer on Twitter.

0:29 - tell me that doesn't look like some kind of introduction for paladins being available for all races? Has anybody played through that part yet or has it been encrypted? Because if it's still unknown territory it feels like paladins could be a surprise in this patch.

[Nightshade711]

Only a few hours left to go before hype season begins.

What are some of your hopes for the news this week?

Today I'm hoping we get a cinematic that shows us a glimpse of the Emerald Dream and the World Tree, and I hope Paladins becoming playable by all races ends up being a thing they unlock once the story is decrypted.

For later in the week, I hope it becomes apparent to us what the longterm future of the story has in store. I just want to know for sure what'll become of Alex, Tyr, Vyranoth, etc. Oh and a metric crap ton of nature-inspired transmog. Druids shouldn't have to use antler helmets from the Molten Core.

Imo druids being playable for all races will probably be the next one expanded out if we’re going solely by story reasons with next patch being all about the emerald dream and what not.

But that’s assuming there’s not something with the Tyr story that would open them up.
