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

[huth]

Who knows. Are the Dimensional ships combat vessels? Who even made them? The Draenei can clearly replicate them. I'd assume they would be supposed to hide after X'era decided to dispatch her core to Azeroth.

That's the point. The Vindicaar definitely is. The Xenedar probably wasn't and certainly isn't now.

That's what they want you to think

This type of argumentation is worthless. Unless you have evidence in favour, you're just waffling around.

Honestly, there was nothing strange about the takedown of that stream. It was a automatic claim from a region partner most likely again because this was pre-React era of WoW In-game cinematics.

Also, Doronsmovies video on the "11.0 leak" (Lol) is still up and running without issues.

[huth]

What do you not understand in the word "speculation"? you are lost grandpa

More than you do apparently. That's not speculation. That's just conspiracy woo of no substance.

Galakrond is the Harbinger
Iridikron absorbed his essence to place in a body capable of handling it

The final group Xal has is
Xal
Galakrond
Iridikron
Azshara
Denathrius

Dragonflight was supposed to be standard and kinda boring is the thing. Focus more on the setting, rather than trying to make a big storyline work.

Personally I think that while it's not a great idea, it has worked well enough. The story, while boring, is also a reat starting point for future stories with more depth. And shuffling the good writing to other areas means that the times when they need the heft they can have it.

Much of it will depend on 11.0. But I think that Blizzard has a great chance to make the next expansion great from the basis of the safe Dragonflight.

We're still treading on cosmic showdown narratives though, which still feel icky. Just reskinning them with Azeroth based content opposed to Shadowlands content still doesn't make it all that much better. I really like Iridikron as an antagonist; if he does indeed go after the Titans, an attempted God-Killer could be a really cool antagonist for the playerbase. Even if he's dabbling in bargains with higher powers/actors, it'd be nice if his driving force stays solely as anti-titan opposed to pro-something else. I just hope his plot stays a bit more grounded than full scale comsological warfare.

There are tons of videos on the image.

If Blizzard wanted it down because of the picture, they would have just told Bellular to take it down, not had their korean channel file a misattributed claim for the video--because as it stands he could just remove that other section and reupload the video perfectly fine with the image in question still in it.

The Evoker legendary quest recreates the same spell, as Nozdormu describes. Where we go back to dragon soul & absorb Neltharian's essence at the time of his death. Except the player is not becoming Neltharian.

Yes, Iridikron was absorbing Galakrond's power but resurrecting galakrond is not his plan, as he himself described. The Void will send a Harbinger once the Void Artifact is filled with a "hunger" the Hunger being Galakrond's essence. While Galakrond was a contemporary of the Old Gods, he himself is nothing to do with the Void Lords or the Deep Dark Beyond, where "The Harbinger" is from.

Congratulations to you and yours.

Thank you so much, he's a lucky man, I assure you hahaha <3

The optimist in me wants to say this is the case, but man if this tone is indicative of WoW's future, that's a hell of a bummer. Narrative wise this feels like it's just a bandage over SL's horrid plot.

Blizz has focused more on appearances rather than narrative because it's easy. A well-written story means depth, and it's been a long time since that's happened.

I'd rather they keep it shallow but sparkly and hope they increase the fanservice. Rather they don't try depth again after BfA.

So which of them is the healer? I'm assuming Iridikron is tanking.

It's bad either way. Don't use it. It doesn't make for a good joke anyway.

The real depth was in MoP. Flew over most peoples heads to the point it looked like it was in a stable orbit.

Better to hope for another WotLK or MoP if you want fanservice. Or has the current fanbase really become so...disillusioned that mediocrity is all they can hope for anymore?

Youre getting real mad over a throw-away joke here dude. Chill out.

I don't know about the fanbase but I have gotten disillusioned. I don't really feel any hype for the DF story. But I used to be a big fan so I enjoy it when the team actually remember older characters and plots. I don't expect development or anything but just seeing things acknowledged is nice. Anything that isn't the same five people or completely new people who will never show up after the current plot is fine with me.

[Pinksocking]

agreed, imagine thinking it was flagged for WOD content lmao

We don't know about galakrond or if he's connected to the void lords
Maybe he was a failed attempt at making a vessel
I'd say we could go by chronicles but we've already been told it's not reliable

Speculation is fun

Thinking back on it, having ONLY Alexstrasza meet Tyr in 10.2.5 and having her speak up against further infusion of eggs to keep her "not failing" word to Vyranoth would do right for the overall plot.

My theory is that she's well aware of his involvement (or at least approval) and the processes within Halls.

She remained tolerant of it until the escape of Raszageth and everything that followed suite causing more harm for the dragons that good.

And no, there's no need to go hostile with this confrontation. It is about standing against a dragon-harmful thing that Order approves of. To fill her "betrayal prophecy" gap. Personally, not expecting Tyr going aggro about it, either.

[Cheezits]

One reason I think Tyr's Guard won't stick around: their tabard is a crappy recolor of the old Silver Hand one, and they didn't bother to update it in a way that would make it look good in modern content.

[Sondrelk]

Why can't they just give us the Tabard of the Silver Hand bruh?

The light blue one with the silver fist? That one has been in the game since Wrath of the Lich King.
