Next Expansion

[VtA2023]

Some info about the next expansion! Happy BlizzCon Eve all

Voyage to Avaloren

• New Continent - Avaloren: There are six new zones (making this continent a bit larger than DI). This includes a max-level zone with some story mechanics similar to Suramar; some other zones that stand out are Hjalmar (an autumnal vrykul fjord), Agg'orand (ancient desert with a mixed ogre race), Uu'kote Clifflands (ancient taunka tribe in giant canyon with some forested areas)
• Capital = Khaz Algar, Algari/earthen/dwarven city carved into a mountain separating Kingslocke and Starwrought Peaks; ancient seal in a temple in the back of the city keeps void-like powers in Starwrought Peaks from encroaching on the rest of Avaloren
• New Races: Algari and Agg'ora for Alliance/Horde respectively; vrykul + taunka allied races coming later
• Dungeons and Raids: 10 new dungeons and an 8-boss raid at launch
• New Dynamic Riding Species: Old mounts will gradually receive the dynamic flying option, and eight new mount species will be available on Avaloren to unlock/customize/etc.
• Class Orders: Classes will unite with their class orders to reestablish class halls (new and old) across all of Azeroth; some places are the same but graphically updated, some are new to account for story changes (personal favorite is the new Rogue class hall in a black market beneath Booty Bay); meant to be evergreen and added to over time, but there'll be some fun campaigns in 11.0
• No new specs or classes

The name is so bad. Why do you even bother to write a leak if your name is just so bad

[meheez]

Lol@ all the Avaloren leaks, everyone knows its Wrath of The Bolvar.

[doledippers]

[Sabejno]

Yeah sure. Thanks mr. leak.

[Korsha]

Sounds like the title of a PowerPoint slide

[RobertMugabe]

I'd consider it plausible if it wasn't for that dumb name. 6/10

[Yogzarron]

I believe this. I agree it's a bad expansion name but we also got "Battle for Azeroth."

Thanks! Gotta start thinking of my Taunka/Vyrul name.

This is the one.

[Itori]

Am i the only one who hopes and prays the new expansion is something completely different than avaloren just to spite these fake leaktards

[DarkAmbient]

The title strongly implies that the journey is as significant as the destination. Gonna call BS on that alone.

Avaloren wasn't a hard guess. It directly correlates with Khaz Algar, which is already leaked through Heroic Edition Mount achieve.

[TheramoreIsTheBomb]

sounds like something made out of chatgpt

[justwatching]

The name makes it fake.

[Puupi]

Taunka name = name+icemoo

[Magistrate]

Avaloren wasn't a hard guess. It directly correlates with Khaz Algar, which is already leaked through Heroic Edition Mount achieve.

There is argumentative room to assert that Avaloren and Khaz Algar are not thematically similar or conceptually aligned. They're two knew location names that popped up at roughly the same time. That's their strongest connection.

It may be the case that Blizzard no longer builds up lore and just craps out new zones after just telling us about them. But there's definitely a space for a logical argument to say that they are not consubstantial.

[Apatrida]

Also betting on this one, tbh.

[quellious]

Hjalmar is the name of an NPC in Exile's Reach. You done fucked up with your leak, again. Also, you supposedly have all this info, but no raid or dungeon names.

[mycooloriginal]

The name is so bad. Why do you even bother to write a leak if your name is just so bad

Never forget the Blizz empoyee that made a new account to bash it.
