I understand the speed decrease in that it was dummy fast, its the excuse as to WHY that makes me angry

crimson jasper
#

then you should know this is very much sarcasm and throwing shade at blizzard

uncut lintel
#

im slow dont laugh at me sadcat

crimson jasper
#

because they love being rat tartet

uncut lintel
#

blizz full of ppl with no brains so wutev

glad niche
#

noone else can zoom at DR speeds outside of the isle. So sure, decrease the max. its still near double normal flight speed

uncut lintel
#

but its only 30% nerf

#

o - o

glad niche
#

but the claim its to remove advantage over other classes irks me, cause slaps my 7 druids various bird forms

uncut lintel
#

💀

nocturne totem
#

Now that I think about it Demon Hunter Glide is even more dumb than Soar

uncut lintel
#

why

#

none of them are dumb

nocturne totem
#

Super advantage

uncut lintel
#

meh

glad niche
#

I think lore wise its been explained that DH dont do more then glide cause it involves tapping fel energy they struggle to control

uncut lintel
#

then if ppl want advantages

#

play that race/class

glad niche
#

Like i said, the nerfed soar is still like double normal flight speed. I likely will be too busy on the isle proper to care.

#

its the REASON they gave that makes me mad

uncut lintel
#

blizzard go brrr

glad niche
#

Id even take them just being capable of normal flight and removing soar

#

Like, weve got wings to rival illidans, and he flaps about like a dang canary when he feels like it

nocturne totem
#

I can't use Glide as a paladin dracthyr_cry

uncut lintel
#

sure u can

#

just use goblin glidesr

#

moji_snickers or be zanda

glad niche
#

iirc, the "we dont want advantages over others" crap has been used before, potentially in regards to DH for all i remember. And it always falls back to how druid is the golden child at blizzard that is constantly overlooked in that excuse

nocturne totem
#

They disabled Goblin Gliders in instances at the same time they added Glide to make DHs be special

glad niche
#

Was the actual forum post with this blue in it locked?

#

theres no means to reply that i can see

#

do you have alpha?

glad niche
#

no, is it only alpha participants that can reply to it?

languid yoke
#

ye

glad niche
#

gotcha

glad niche
#

The silence post slime cat and soar is oof

#

Like all the hype trains just derailed and all the hopium that blizz actually gives a damn just went up in smoke

#

Moreso the slimecat on that one. The soar change needs some fair compensation for me to be agreeable to it fully.

#

I'd really love just normal old flight on a Dracthyr. It's been. .. over a decade since I've played a game where a race has its own flight without a transformation needed at the least.

nocturne totem
#

What's wrong with the slime mount?

glad niche
#

Apparently the achievement didnt say normal mode. They have included LFR in the season starting August 4th. But it's excluded from the mount which is apparently presumably FOMO

#

(I don't do season stuff so I'm only repeating what I'm consumed from scouring wowhead and forums the last hour)

#

So, for months people have been excited over season stuff including LFR as an option. And the slimecat NOT being in the LFR stuff, was only made news today.

#

Season 4 includes LFR level content, LFR level content has zero rewards because of the abrupt exclusion

nocturne totem
#

Oh. I never would have assumed LFR would have anything tied to it.

glad niche
#

The problem is, why include it in the season stuff if it won't have a reward.

nocturne totem
#

Can you do Fated LFR?

glad niche
#

My understanding from reading through a bunch of stuff is that season 4 will be the first to included fated LFR

nocturne totem
#

They could have easily added an LFR tier reward along with the Normal/Heroic/Mythic stuff I guess.

glad niche
#

To test the waters or something? That part isn't very clear.

#

But while it's being added to the content pool, it apparently has zero rewards.

#

So, noone will want to do it. Thua defeating the purpose of even adding it as an option.

#

Thus*

nocturne totem
#

You still get Season 4 ilvl gear from it I assume

#

If you can do Fated LFR

glad niche
#

I'd assume so. I know nothing about gear from it. I just know a lot of forum members have soundly worded upset over the slimecat.

The baseline achievement doesn't say normal mode. From my scouring the first just lists the fated raids. The second states heroic specifically. The third states mythic specifically.

#

So. The forum talk since those were seen has been about how LFR will be included in the pool for the chievements. No blue post has ever once corrected this, from my understanding

#

Then today,a week before the season. Blue post saying LFR not eligible for mount

nocturne totem
#

I can understand miscommunication and wording the achievement wrong. But people should just run Normal then to get the mount.

glad niche
#

Basically. That with soar getting it's wings clipped for weak reasons. Forums are a kicked hornets nest.

Not even via foul mouthed trolly sorts. It's all well worded typed out responses. With no fresh blue responses in sight. So all of them feel unheard

nocturne totem
#

Easy content

#

I guess we just wait and see if Blizz caves and adds LFR to it

glad niche
#

You say easy. But this is content 120% foreign to me. Who has extreme anxiety issues and avoids static based content like a plague.

#

So if I had wanted the cat. I'd probably be upset too.

nocturne totem
#

For those people's sakes I hope Blizz changes it

#

Especially if you can do Fated LFR

glad niche
#

LFR is bonkers side ways and sloppy cause of lack of communication. But when I did a lot of LFR in pandaria. It ment I didn't have to deal with static groups who (at the time) as a game community were notorious for being toxic and harmful

nocturne totem
#

In the future Blizz should know that players will look over every thing with a fine toothed comb

glad niche
#

Mhmm

nocturne totem
#

Achievements anyway should be clearly worded

glad niche
#

I'd said it earlier but. With soar nerf. It's truly not the speed clip that bothers me. It's the asinine reasons they gave.

nocturne totem
#

I think their reason makes sense.

glad niche
#

Shamans can water walk. Some class I don't remember can breathe under water. Mages have portals. Someone has slow fall.

Non travel side - druid and a few others selectively have battle rezes. Does that not put them at an advantage too?

nocturne totem
#

I bet when they designed it they thought only about Dragonflight. Then, people started using it in old zones and they thought "Oh shit"

glad niche
#

I mean yeah it's super speedy. I'd personally be fine with Dracthyr having soar on the isle and normal 310 or whatever flight in old zones.

nocturne totem
#

Yeah some classes have some good movement utility that makes their whole QoL playing the game easier then others live in poverty

glad niche
#

Just, end of the day, the advantageous excuse is to me 100% bogus. The game is not made with open world balance in mind. The classes and races each have some things they excel in that play part in being picked when making an alt.

#

Hell I have a handful on zandalari cause the bwonsamdi buff is op for how I play. And passive extra gold never hurt.

#

So. Seeing this chat so silent after those two things today. Very somber feeling.

#

Been looking like so much good back and forth in feedback and then fart noises

nocturne totem
#

There are a number of imbalances yeah. Blizz picks weird battles to say they want to make things even.

glad niche
#

Idk if we'll see it but I also hope the new drakes will function as normal mounts outside of the isles.

#

Don't personally care about riding enough to want it as my core flight. (Plus a lot of old zones are SUPER flat, which doesn't actually work very easily with mechanical flight mechanics)

#

In GW2 the ground mounts are permanently relevant because it's impossible to get lift in say, the desert, on the griffin. And the skyscale is a slow chunk who also doesn't permanently maintain air

#

My first thought when people want DR in old zones, is that huge baren flatland in northrend

#

Sure if you climb up high first you'll have fun for a good bit. Starting from ground level, your options are limited

nocturne totem
#

I wish they just adopted the FF14 all mounts fly thing

glad niche
#

I'm not sure why they haven't, tbh

dense plover
#

"Effects that scale with empower level, such as Power Swell and Tyranny, remove gameplay by indicating that it is always correct to fully empower your spells."

#

YO

#

they actually acknowledged the problem

#

"Iridescence is a new, 1-rank passive at the bottom of the right side of the tree. “Casting an empower spell increases the damage of your next 2 spells of the same color by 15% within 10 sec.”" - this is cool

#

but

#

i dont think they fixed it?

#

it seems like theyre encouraging it?

#

im confused

#

"Power Swell is now a 2-rank node that reads, “Empower spells increase your Essence regeneration rate by 50% for 2 sec or 4 sec [per rank].”"

#

like - doesnt this specifically encourage empowering?

deep pawn
#

I'm on the side lfr should count for the mount

#

It didn't specify and they said you can earn dinar in lfr so why not the mount

uncut vault
#

Sad to see charged blast go, it was honestly really neat

#

especially now that its replacement is ST only

dense plover
uncut vault
#

I said it on the forums too, but I hope that Azure Strike gets some talents to make it feel less like filler if they are gonna go through with this

#

cause I do like the idea of a blue spell enhancing damage to a target

dense plover
#

its probably gonna see some more changes before its rotation is finalized

uncut vault
#

honestly my hot take is that I feel like essence regen needs to be nerfed a bit, to make the spec feel better lol

dense plover
#

probably

#

afaik theyre often over-capped

uncut vault
#

right now it has the issue where essence regens so fast, that you just constantly feel like you're missing damage by capping on it

#

even if you're doing everything possible

dense plover
#

and the new change isnt really gonna make it much better

uncut vault
#

especially in single target, where your main spender is a channeled ability

#

it feels a lot better in AoE thanks to Pyre being instant cast and a lot cooler to spam

#
  • talent interactions with fire breath
lean yew
#

I am irrationally upset about the soar speed change

#

And haven't even been able to read through the changes they're making without getting upset about the soar change

#

I also liked how you could pick your charged blast talent, an aoe one for leveling and a reset one for st

dense plover
#

well thats dumb

#

because its still really good

#

its still 640% speed

#

its 50% faster than normal flying instead of approx. 130%

#

and its 200% more flight speed

lean yew
#

Yes but it's worthless in the dragon isles now

dense plover
#

it already was

lean yew
#

Which makes it even worse

dense plover
#

the cooldown made it worthless in the isles

#

imo, if they stick to the reduced speed, they should reduce or remove the cooldown within the isles

lean yew
#

I used soar any chance I could - but was heavily limited obviously by the cooldown

dense plover
#

either that or reduce the speed specifically outside the isles

#

thats another option

#

dont ruin it in the isles, only nerf it outside

charred gyro
#

I also just don't.. buy that anything in the old world is important enough to be concerned about a 4-min CD limited flying edge. They mentioned transmog and Chromie Time as a reason to nerf the speed? Like huh?

lean yew
#

I just don't get why it matters that much in old content - who is complaining about the efficiency?

dense plover
#

imo its probably server load stuff and it makes the world appear significantly smaller

lean yew
#

Then they could've said that - the reason is what makes me so annoyed lol

#

It, and I said this on the thread, does not pass the sniff test

#

If it smells like shit, and looks like shit, it's probably shit

dense plover
#

i dont think they want to admit that the old world is starting to become a problem

charred gyro
#

I suppose.. future implications... in the old world..? ? Honestly I struggled to finish that thought. I don't see it.

dense plover
#

because then people are going to rant and rave about the world needing an update

#

and they really dont have the resources to do that again

lean yew
#

I think the need to nerf it in old world content highlights the flaws with the current travel system in wow, pre-dragonriding.

dense plover
#

i mean, the dragon riding speed only really works as well as it does in DF because the zones are designed for it

lean yew
#

I think they're also afraid to commit because once dragonriding is out of the box in the old world there's no going back

#

However, I do also think that the feedback once df launches is going to be extremely overwhelming and they'll have no choice.

lean yew
#

After dragonriding, old flying feels so bad

dense plover
#

i think if it DOES end up being added to the old world (when ideally), theyll unnerf the ability

#

theyve done that with racials in the past

#

where they nerfed them for launch and buffed them after

lean yew
#

True, they could just make it the same speed in dragon isles, lower the cd a bit, leave it nerfed in old world until if and when they enable dragonriding

dense plover
#

but its also possible that alpha feedback will result in them increasing it slightly

#

to somewhere less than the 950%

#

but more than 640

#

and hopefully reducing or removing the cooldown when on the isles

lean yew
#

I just hope they respond to feedback in some way and don't ignore it entirely

dense plover
#

its very likely

#

tbh, i personally saw the speed reduction as inevitable

uncut vault
#

I honestly just hope they listen to the feedback for how it works on the dragon isles

dense plover
#

though i never expected it to be this much

uncut vault
#

like, reducing the speed for the old world, fine I guess, we will live

lean yew
#

I agree, the isles part is most important to me

uncut vault
#

but it already feels inferior on the dragon isles

#

and it has a 5 minute cooldown

charred gyro
#

Agreed. I'd take that.

#

Oh it's 5?

#

Oop.

dense plover
#

yeah the problem there is absolutely that they dont get the abilities and it has a 5 min cooldown and now it has less speed

lean yew
#

I wanna be able to soar next to my friends while they're dragonriding for a bit

dense plover
#

i think not having the abilities is enough

#

at least when on the isles

lean yew
#

You obviously can't keep up forever, but if you're going a short distance its fine

#

It feels so good to launch up as a dracthyr and fly to the next quest area

#

It works really well for short travel

dense plover
#

i can understand SOME cooldown?

charred gyro
#

Right, it's already less powerful considering it doesn't benefit from the vigor system and upgrades. Leaving it at the same speed feels like the least they could do to allow it to be interesting in DF zones.

lean yew
#

Yeah, the cooldown on the isles needs to be lower.

dense plover
#

like maybe a min?

#

maybe 2 if they really want a cooldown

#

5 is excessive

lean yew
#

I should be able to fly to a quest, complete it, then soar to the turn in

dense plover
#

i think if they can make it only slower in the old world, that would also help

#

IE "this ability functions differently when on the dragon isles"

#

or even two versions of it - "Dragon Isles Soaring" "Azerothian Soaring"

#

maybe one as a passive describing how the ability is more powerful in your ancestral home

#

idk

lean yew
#

Yeah. I know they tend to avoid that, but making it just slower on dragon isles is just plain bad

#

The cooldown really has to be much lower though either way

#

It's hilariously bad in the starting zone when you soar across forgotten reach and then have to walk to the next area

uncut vault
#

A minute feels fine for on the dragon isles at least, since vigor recharge takes about that long baseline

#

and less so with upgrades

lean yew
#

Agreed. I tend to think they'll settle on 2, but it should be a minute if they're dead-set on a cooldown

#

Maybe I was an outlier, but I really liked the idea of choosing blue vs. red for a side to focus on

#

But it does make sense they want us to use both and not exclusively one or the other.

Alchemy is getting new exciting terms. I have no idea what phials and incense are but it feels they'll be expanding to be more than just potion, flasks and transmutation this time around

dense plover
#

@uncut vault regarding your tweet about wrathion's followers, i think youre wrong

#

this

#

i think the entire point of mentioning garrosh is it clearly shows how his followers see him and how he works

#

i dont think wrathion has any regrets about what he did

#

because it worked

#

we beat the legion

#

we locked up sargeras

#

we defeated argus

#

we got rid of sylvanas

#

it all worked

#

and even if wrathion DOES regret it

#

think of it in the context of followers of other people

#

when a celebrity says or does something wrong-ish, people will say they did it for a good reason or that kind of stuff, even after they have apologized or said it was a mistake

uncut vault
#

The entire point of his journal was flat out talking about how he regrets it lol

#

and if it were average followers, it would be fine

#

its his two closest confidants

#

and again, my point isnt just that it exists, it's that it's in a quest designed to show his strengths

#

and that interaction is very much not that

dense plover
#

hmmm ok

uncut vault
#

its just "wow his followers are idiots"

dense plover
#

i still think some of his followers supporting that action isnt unreasonable

#

but probably not his main ones

uncut vault
#

meanwhile sabellian gets three interactions not only pumping him up, but saying blatantly that he is better than Wrathion

#

it should be even between the two IMO

dense plover
#

i definitely dont think sabellian should be better'

uncut vault
#

hence why I think replacing it with talking about N'zoth, and his journey to redemption after freeing Garrosh is a better thing for left and right to talkabout

dense plover
#

didnt Sabellian support deathwing's actions during Cata?

uncut vault
#

We don't know when he stopped supporting him, only that he did, and has been building his own clutch of eggs since then

#

and somehow found a cure for their corruption off-screen

dense plover
#

could all be a ruse or trap

#

btw, when did Wrathion say he regrets the garrosh stuff?

uncut vault
#

Well yeah, that's still TBD, but I doubt they'll all be corrupted simply because they are the future of the flight

#

in his 9.2.5 questline, not directly but via his journal stuff

#

basically saying that he's realized since then that operating through subterfuge and forcing conflict in an attempt to unite people isn't as noble a goal as he thought

dense plover
uncut vault
#

A pity the former Aspects are so reluctant to trust me. Even after all my research, their familiarity with the titans' handiwork surely eclipses my own. But given the troubled history of my dragonflight... of Deathwing, Onyxia, Nefarian... and myself... I cannot say I blame them, either.

#

[Medivh] said something on which I ruminate even now: "I can never change the actions of my past," he told me, "but I can forge a new legacy to leave behind."

A new legacy. In the end, perhaps that is what I am truly after. A way to make amends for my father's failings... as well as my own. A legacy worthy of the black dragonflight's original sacred charge: the defense of Azeroth. The end of the Old Gods.

haughty houndBOT
dense plover
#

i mean - it still doesnt say he regrets it though

#

like - having a more noble goal doesnt mean that what you did in the past was the wrong thing

#

it might mean that you couldve done better

uncut vault
#

he very directly talks about his failings

dense plover
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

im not saying that the line shouldnt be removed

#

maybe modified

#

something about how it wasnt the best plan but it worked

#

or how while the plan worked, there were better ways to go about it

#

i still think they should acknowledge that wrathion was responsible and accomplished the goal he set out to accomplish

uncut vault
#

If anything I'd prefer left and right outright say that Wrathion made mistakes, that he's jeopardized things in his attempts to fulfill his duty: but that he's been there trying to fulfill it nonetheless, and learned from his mistakes as a leader

#

theyre both very blunt, honest characters

dense plover
#

i think they can say that while also sort of hyping him idk

#

talking about the lengths wrathion went to in the past, how those mistakes happened to work out but taught him lessons, idk

#

i think ignoring it is bad

#

maybe instead of removing that line, they could add a second followup line that talks about him regreting the choices he made

uncut vault
#

My point in general for the thread was that it feels like they're writing Wrathion as a continuation of MoP wrathion

dense plover
#

thats fair

#

they have to tread sorta carefully

uncut vault
#

when he had a huge amount of development for his impatience and willingness to share his plans and glory alike with others in BfA

dense plover
#

since most players wont know who he is

#

theoretically

#

if you are a new player, DF is the first time you will meet wrathion

#

so giving the background is important

#

it might make sense to have significantly more relevant dialogue in that scene

#

talk about both the bad and good stuff he did

uncut vault
#

it's also why Im mixed on the interaction from the void elf, because it kinda gives the wrong impression of wrathion himself

#

like, shes right that he absolutely did do that, he was killing the corrupted dragons in Cata

#

but since then, he's come to pretty much the same opinion that is presented for Sabellian: that they should be cured, not culled

#

but this questline doesn't mention that at all

#

so I hope at least his opinions on that matter come up before the ultimate reputation choice happens

dense plover
#

it might be worth making a forum post

#

and talking about how they need to have more dialogue there since this is the first time new players will meet wrathion

uncut vault
#

I probably will on the general Waking shores post, I'm probably going to wait until the reputation story is testable to make a dedicated thread since I already have submitted some feedback and I want to see how they handle the story before actually making the choice

dense plover
#

thats also fair

#

might take a few builds for them to make changes though

uncut vault
#

I also just want to see how amicable they are to story changes in general this time around, since it seems much further in development

#

mainly via the dracthyr feedback

#

and the lack of clarity on the weyrn you're in before getting suddenly whisked off to Stormwind/Orgrimmar

dense plover
#

i think thats because theyre missing cutscenes

#

but we will see

#

im hoping they expand on the timeskip theyve decided to do

#

we need definitive amounts of time

uncut vault
#

Well the cutscenes wouldnt really help it, since the ones we know about are about flashbacks to Neltharion's stuff

#

the issues are more in the quests themselves, and how they basically just present everyone as following the Alliance leader at first

#

the only hint at being in one or the other is the starting quest NPC, where no differences are shown and they dont comment on their weyrns

dense plover
#

i mean - that COULD be in the cutscenes since you are in these weyrns in the past

#

but it is definitely a fair critique

uncut vault
#

both starti n the exact same spot is the main issue there

#

I think something as simple as starting in a different one, and reversing the roles of the scalecommanders depending on which faction you are would fix it

#

because once you're out of the creche, you all follow Emberthal regardless

dense plover
#

theres supposed to be 2

#

so thats weird

#

like - the zone names list 2 weyrns/creches

#

i wonder if its a bug?

uncut vault
#

Yeah thats what I mean, the quests are the exact same, in the exact same area, following Azurethal throughthe quests and then finding Cindrethresh outside

dense plover
#

or maybe not finished?

uncut vault
#

I hope so, thats mostly what I mean of seeing how malleable the story development is first

dense plover
#

hold on

#

lemme find the thing

uncut vault
#

also I was looking for the NPC for the horde quest starting

#

turns otu apparently he has a regular human visage form

#

despite joining the Horde

#

weird

#

maybe he's using it for subterfuge?

dense plover
#

see how there are 2 separate micro starting zone maps?

#

im pretty sure theres supposed to be some kind of separation

#

but the maps themselves are implemented

#

so i dont know

#

where do you start on this map i labeled?

uncut vault
#

I thinik that might be the other creches in the region

#

you start at D

#

then E and A have two other creches

dense plover
#

do you ever visit C?

uncut vault
#

No, but it's not a creche

#

just some ruins

dense plover
#

hmmm, yeah they definitely should change one to start somewhere else

#

i would initially report it as a bug though

uncut vault
#

the player creche is much bigger on the inside than the others

dense plover
#

hmmmm

#

thats not ideal

uncut vault
#

it's where most of them "are", but most of them are just locked doors

dense plover
#

i mean, they can change that though

#

not hard to copy the existing creche to a different part and change some NPC stuff

#

theyve done more in single builds historically

#

i g2g but uh, i hope they make some changes to make it a bit more consistent

uncut vault
#

Me too, thanks for the talk!

harsh mason
#

In dragonflight, just some characters cite as an argument that Wrathion simply killed other black dragons, while Sabellian protected them (both from the grons and from the corruption of the old gods)

#

Let's just say Sabellian did much less damage than Wrathion (although he, as Neltharion's lieutenant, helped Ner'zhul's Horde)

But Im happy with what I cooked up. Enough so to occasionally Belf dance

#

mmmm

#

nope. Nevermind. The dance is still horrible

#

So the dances are normally based on whats popular at the time the race came into being. But Im a stiff old person. Whats the Dracthyr dance based on?

#

it reminds me of swing dancing sorta

#

Electroswing I should say

#

I think she just picked something to match the BMP of the dance but it looks nice

#

Kinda sad the visage forms dont do either the same one or different pieces of whatever inspired it

ember blaze
#

the new camera thing is bad if youre not actually looking through a lens

#

having to aim a beam in third person is terrible dracthyr_tea

glad niche
#

I know nothing being the pics you sent before, but considering for a normal camera id look through the lens, not sure why third person is an option

ember blaze
#

without actually looking through a camera

#

was watching towelliee

#

and it constantly disabled by moving

#

just looked terrible all around

glad niche
#

aaah

ember blaze
#

idk how you could mess that up so bad

glad niche
#

might have something to do with game modes, cant say for certain since im not blizzard back end

grand bane
#

why does blizzard hate DH :(

#

still no talent tree for our beloved DH mains

pulsar minnow
#

Someone posted this earlier but

grand bane
#

i am going to cry if its real

languid yoke
#

has nothing to do with hating DH, the same dev simply finished rogue first

#

of course it's not real

dense plover
pulsar minnow
grand bane
#

i know :D

livid walrus
#

this is new iliidan model btw?

plain violet
#

No, it's just the inner demon model, a bit old.

cunning fossil
#

People so quick to think that their classes are gonna get shafted

#

Shits wild

#

I main a DK and DH (yeap, I am an edgelord loool), so since DK and druid were the first ones to have talent tree, I'm suspecting DH will be the last 😆

The people not happy are the loudest ones after all lol

coarse quail
upper pasture
#

because we have dragon riding to use

coarse quail
#

Is there going to be...mobs...?

#

Npc's...?

#

Herbs? something else?

upper pasture
#

if i'm not mistaken that is the dracthyr starting zone which we will most likely come back as an end game zone at max level so.....yes?

harsh mason
#

A bit of mountains, so it seems from the outside

harsh mason
#

Calm down

coarse quail
#

Hope they won't do mistakes like previous patches

harsh mason
coarse quail
#

So much mountains,but nothing on them.

harsh mason
#

Are you telling us someone 's words here right now?

harsh mason
#

There are many mountains in storm peak because it is a storm peak. But the whole continent did not consist of mountains alone

upper pasture
#

storm peaks was a pretty big zone had a raid in it and a dungeon (or two?) it also added a faction with dailies and a quite a few quests to do, idk what you're going on about

dense plover
#

not to mention this isnt a huge zone

#

its the smallest zone

coarse quail
#

I know,there r meaning and all...but I wrote it to my opinion.

harsh mason
upper pasture
#

had 113 quests in the zone and a raid and dungeons i'd count that as a pretty full zone even though it had mountians ¯_(ツ)_/¯

harsh mason
#

and it's strange that after tBC people are not tired of DQ

harsh mason
pulsar minnow
#

Wow I found Halls of Infusion on WoW Tools

#

This dungeon looks beautiful

#

Its very much a return to the classic titan aesthetic though modernized with some tech stuff

#

The dungeon is overgrown and appears to have Primalist shenanigans going on inside

harsh mason
#

You can take screenshots, please, if it's not difficult

pulsar minnow
#

Will do

#

and oh wow this Dungeon is underneath Tyrhold I think

#

The part that I think might be Tyrhold

wheat drum
#

there is any boe in fated raids?

upper pasture
dense plover
pulsar minnow
#

This nexus dungeon looks great as well

#

Looks like players might be teleporting across to various sections of the dungeon

#

Whatever this is the Primalists got into it Edit: wait this is probably the entrance to Vault of the Incarnates

dense plover
#

is the model not named?

pulsar minnow
#

its a bunch of numbers .wmo

#

I kinda just skimmed past it didnt write it down

#

But yeah there is a good change its halls of infusion because I did see one boss that has the primalist rock formation in their room

dense plover
#

TIL flight masters are an all in one m2

#

this is 100% a flight master point

pulsar minnow
#

I think it is Vault btw

#

The map icon for the Vault matches up

dense plover
#

huh - i wouldve figured that they would have textured these new caves by now

pulsar minnow
#

Theres an absolute ton of caves and rocks

#

Honestly really glad that is the case. We need little alcoves for secret dragon stuff

dense plover
#

we need NEW alcoves so its nice to see new ones

#

this one is neat

#

could be academy related?

#

cool library area - bronze and blue flags

#

i do wonder why some of my textures arent loading

#

well i found the ruby life pools

#

14783.wmo

#

@pulsar minnow @uncut vault bronze dragon shrine

livid walrus
#

😮

dense plover
#

well, the entrance

pulsar minnow
#

Yeah was checking that out too. There is no way that isn't related to some max level content

#

Because there isn't a dungeon or anything for it

dense plover
#

its the entrance in the grand time adventure thingy

#

its at the bronze dragon shrine

#

perfection

pulsar minnow
#

Oh there's a few assets with some really funny variations on the "delete me"

dense plover
#

think this is neltharus?

#

14742

livid walrus
#

seems so

dense plover
#

dunno why the textures are weird

#

but the tool isnt being updated anymore so its better than nothing

livid walrus
#

shadows

pulsar minnow
#

yeah all neltharus related textures are messed up

#

Even the exterior building

dense plover
#

i found a big one

#

this seems excessive

#

it has a fucking sun above it

pulsar minnow
#

Yup thats Halls of Infusion

#

Goldshire got a complete overhaul but its... just here?

dense plover
#

might be for a cutscene?

pulsar minnow
#

Would love to see it implemented

#

Gnoll Wars might even involve it

#

Old version of Tyrhold with dragon statues

dense plover
#

pretty sure this is part of valdrakken

pulsar minnow
#

Yeah that building's interior is in a loading screen

dense plover
#

yo this centaur structure with a big cat on it is awesome

#

i think i found a part of uldaman

#

its still loading textures

pulsar minnow
#

Ok so I think I've gone through all the DF stuff with the last thing being that early version of Tyrhold. I definitely missed some stuff because wow.tools' occasional weirdness

dense plover
#

yeah this thing

#

i think this is the disk that deimos breaks

#

wait

#

maybe not

#

this might be the raid?

#

theres like lava and stuff

#

yeah thats a boss platform

#

14720.wmo

pulsar minnow
#

Yes thats vault

#

Final boss room has titan platforms corresponding to each element

dense plover
#

definitely raid

#

ah you mean this crazy fucking room

#

this raid looks insane

pulsar minnow
#

Yep

dense plover
#

also it being a titan structure is interesting

pulsar minnow
#

I think Raszageth might be breaking into the raid to free the other incarnates

#

Raszageth, being their leader, was seemingly imprisoned far away from them in the Forbidden Reach

upper pasture
dense plover
#

i cant seem to find any other entrance

#

and its the farthest from the final chamber

plain violet
#

The purple impact could be the "primal thunder" or arcane..

upper pasture
#

I might be but all I’m saying is how the door looks is something broke out of it not broke into it

pulsar minnow
harsh mason
dense plover
#

dont know what this is but it looks awesome

#

maybe azure vault?

pulsar minnow
dense plover
#

might be the academy

#

its very detailed

#

14712

plain violet
dense plover
#

some kind of gnoll den/burrow

plain violet
#

Pretty...

pulsar minnow
#

The other incarnates haven't showed up in the story yet right?

dense plover
#

probably gnoll

dense plover
#

but we also havent gone to the zones that involve them really

#

and we probably have some info missing from azure span

#

since we didnt have the dungeon tie in

harsh mason
pulsar minnow
#

Next week should be Thaldraszus so we'll probably find out what happens

#

Honestly I really hope Raszageth isn't killed in the first raid. I think she's actually a pretty cool villain and there seems to be more to her involving the other aspects based on Kalec's dialogue in Azure Span

dense plover
#

next week isnt ohnaran?

#

14691 is the obsidian sanctum/citadel entrance btw

livid walrus
#

i tried to do monk starting zone, it seems you get too much exp there

dense plover
#

this is interesting - this is probably neltharion's model's head

#

we havent seen neltharion's new model yet

pulsar minnow
dense plover
#

thats the zone im most worried about

#

it seems the most flat

pulsar minnow
#

That's why I'm keen on seeing it too

livid walrus
#

any Galakron hints?

dense plover
#

not sure what this is - 14680

dense plover
#

so 10.3

pulsar minnow
#

Blizz have said that we'd pretty much know the big bad by the end of 10.0, AKA after Vault. I'm gonna guess: The Incarnates United, a resurrected maybe elemental Galakrond (just because it'd be cool), or Murozond

dense plover
#

its almost definitely murozond

pulsar minnow
#

Leaning on him too

dense plover
#

porter had a pretty solid theory that nozdormu stops the primalists doing something bad

#

which is good

#

but by doing so, he dies

#

but he stops himself dying

#

and becomes murozond

#

something like that at least

#

murozond has to be created at some point and dragonflight is absolutely the best time

#

and it tying into the raid would make sense considering the primalist's tomorrow map

pulsar minnow
#

I feel like we're going to start off with Incarnates but over time (badum tss) its going to turn into the Infinite

#

Infinite eventually just taking over the Incarnates

dense plover
#

so - the map viewer in model viewer is awesome

#

it loads the world wmo

#

which confirms they didnt just change the minimap for grand time adventure

#

the actual world is significantly different

livid walrus
#

I hope for Chromatus too

dense plover
#

this portal seems significant

#

@uncut vault im looking around the grand time adventure map if you care

livid walrus
#

it is the portal we fight againts protodrake in the waking shores questline, there is a cinematic over there too.

dense plover
#

its nowhere near the waking shores

livid walrus
#

i know but the area is in waking shore as well , this cove model

dense plover
#

with ice?

#

oh'

#

near the life shrines?

pulsar minnow
#

How do you view the map file in modelviewer?

dense plover
#

click the map viewer tab

#

be careful - its laggy

livid walrus
#

we fight a protodrake there and get cutscene , which is hidden from us

dense plover
#

it loads all the doodads and animated textures

livid walrus
#

sec going to take screenshot

dense plover
#

im looking at the plains a bit

#

its less flat then i thought

#

it has ridged

#

and rocky outcroppings

#

i cant really run this though

#

its SO laggy

#

maybe if i could double the amount of RAM i had i might be able to get 20fps XD

livid walrus
#

when do you think blizz will test pvp ?

dense plover
#

beta

upper pasture
#

season 2

pulsar minnow
#

Oh wow yeah this is amazing

dense plover
#

once all the classes are in and theyre focusing on testing

dense plover
#

but i cant really run it

#

which is a shame

pulsar minnow
#

Yup this is vault of the Incarnates

#

It's working... sort of okay for me. I'm gonna try and see if I can find dungeon entrances

#

OH

#

Okay so I figured out what that Valdrakken Room with the loading screen was

#

That's actually Tal'ageth Academy

livid walrus
#

see the same portal , another location

dense plover
#

huh

#

i mean - if its primalists both times, its nothing if not consistent

dense plover
#

take ohnaran plains pictures

#

and that other zone

#

thaldrazzus

#

we have seen almost none of it

pulsar minnow
#

Centaur village

#

Its big

#

Another village towards the shore with an Ohn'ahra statue

plain violet
#

Oooh, a cult, niiice.

pulsar minnow
#

Huh. 3 random titan rooms underground. (Under Tyrhold)

#

could be for questing

#

Gosh I love the world design for Dragonflight. So many areas that are cut off unless you fly there. Really sells that this is the home of the dragons; they dont need stairs or anything

#

Tyrhold is completely inaccessible without flying for instance

dense plover
#

its really REALLY well designed

plain violet
#

I really like it too.

#

Some would say "but for the ones who don't have wings ?!" but well... Every dragon have wings and drakonids can be transported here, plus, there is portals. With magic everywhere, locomotion is totally something else.

#

Like when, in science-fiction, you can access portion of Coruscant only with a speeder, flying.

livid walrus
#

i doubt it , but i hope they could update ulduar

pulsar minnow
#

Im standing on what is roughly player height on the ground. These aqueducts are just my favorite part of this zone. They are genuinely massive

crystal pond
#

Is... Is raid gonna be tested soon? Or you guys just hyped again

pulsar minnow
pulsar minnow
dense plover
#

they cant do raid testing until class balance is closer to done

#

raid testing is like - a month or 6 weeks before launch

crystal pond
#

Beta in the early sept, no?
Or its gonna be aug?

dense plover
#

sept

#

but raid testing probably in october

#

we literally havent even tested all the dungeons, we dont have all the class trees

#

raid will come after all of that is done

crystal pond
#

Idk how they gonna balance evoker
Imagine pvp with them dracthyr_lulmao

dense plover
#

pvp balance is separate from pve

pulsar minnow
#

There's a lot of stuff on the Bronze Dragonshrine

#

Flightpoint, tents, what I believe is an Oathstone?

dense plover
#

lots of doodads

pulsar minnow
#

This has to be some sort of Torghast Equivalent

#

There's no way they'd just leave that giant door there

#

Very excited for them to reveal whatever is the Grand Time Adventure

glad niche
#

hm, i actually dont really like a lot of the highlands customizations

dense plover
dense plover
#

im pretty sure there are a few more horn colors

pulsar minnow
crystal pond
#

Maybe bronze oathstone questline going to be related with timetravel stuff that was datamined? This new maps i mean

glad niche
#

yeah, just from the pictures Im def feeling less jazzed compared to the others

#

Im hoping in game we'll have the ability to preview the locked ones

#

Id be mighty perturbed if i work my ass off for a customization and end up disliking it after all the effort

#

so far my fav seems to be the proto, based on pics alone

livid walrus
#

i found a bug.. you cant accept change body type in barber shop unless you change another thing in addition to that

livid walrus
#

i did

#

I just shared it with you lot 🙂

pulsar minnow
#

New Arena

dense plover
#

well there is a centaur arena map

#

it has a bunch of different layouts

pulsar minnow
#

yeah, I think this is their final iteration on it

dense plover
#

well, the in world iteration

#

assuming it doesnt just rotate on its own somehow

pulsar minnow
#

That would be pretty awesome if that is the case

uncut lintel
#

whats the black thing

#

bushes maybe

dense plover
#

the tool doesnt always load them right

#

and its not being maintained

#

so

#

its a bit out of date

rain cave
#

@uncut vault I was surprised to hear taliesin calling you out in one of his videos

#

made me do a double take

pulsar minnow
#

I noticed that too in a recent video on the clips channel

didn't realize porter had clout

Well, he got Twitter, a nice visibility, he have the alpha... 😁
I just hope it's not too difficult for him.

stray relic
#

That's so incredibly lame that violet isn't a scale option for your dragon riding mount ...

#

Yet white is

#

They give one obscure option but not both

dense plover

#

Can Dracthyr wear helms (like glasses) in their visage forms?

pulsar minnow
spiral carbon
#

They can't in visage form ? dracry

stray relic
#

I hope more options will come, but it's just illogical that purple isn't an option initially

proper crystal
spiral carbon
#

Just why ?

pulsar minnow
#

No yeah visage form any armor works

proper crystal
pulsar minnow
#

my bad my brain is mush right now I've decided that today is the day I finally start using bartender and change ALL my keybinds 😅

proper crystal
#

Oh boy! Good luck!

#

:O

pulsar minnow
#

Yeah... I'm gonna need it lol

proper crystal
#

I asked bc helms and shoes arent working in the dressing room right now--and obviously it's a WIP, plus I know for a fact shoes work for visage form in-game, but one can never be sure what's not showing up bc glitch/NYI and whats not showing up on purpose 👀

#

it's a shame there isn't a more turquoise or cyan hair highlight color, but I digress

pulsar minnow
#

Yeah all 3D assets dont seem to be working on Visage forms right now, really wish I could see the DF Warmode Mail on them but that entire set is composed of 3d bits and bobs

proper crystal
#

ah i see, I know 3d shirt sleeves don't work on the dressing room in general and the waist of time belt is showing up just fine on the visage, but the 3D boots i was trying to put on weren't working

dense plover
#

yeah theres some bugs - its in testing mode

harsh mason
#

I was thinking so, we were told that at the end of the storyline of the last location, we will be given a hint of the final boss

#

Maybe it will be Raszagethdracthyr_hehe

upper pasture
#

I think when defeating Raszageth we will find out the true threat seeing as they are the final 10.0 boss

harsh mason
#

I know that, I'm just guessing

#

Raszageth is very closely related to dracthyr. Most likely Neltharion used her to create them)

#

She already definitely appears in 3 locations in the course of the plot

upper pasture
#

But if we defeat her in 10.0 how can she be the true threat?

harsh mason
upper pasture
#

Idk because I’m betting our true enemies will be the infinite. And because that’s usually what happens in raids is we beat the bosses sometimes they escape sometimes we fight their underlings and not them. There’s a chance she lives and becomes an raid boss in 10.1/.2/.3 but I don’t think she’s the big bad of DF

#

If she was going to be the big bad I feel like blizzard would have told us that too since her information is already out and they said “by the end of the storyline you’ll know who the big bad is” and we clearly already know who she is so

plain violet
#

I do wonder what will be the future of Dracthyrs, for sure, considering they slowly regain their memories and talents.

rain cave
#

I wonder if alextrasza will die

#

the infinite dragon in the uldaman revamp says there will only be one aspect, and nozdormu will become murozond

#

if alextrasza dies he'll be the only "original" aspect

#

since kalecgos is just a standin

#

not the actual blue aspect

upper pasture
#

if he becomes Murozond he isn't the aspect anymore

rain cave
#

why not

upper pasture
#

so i'd be alex is the only one who will be a true aspect when he falls at the end of 10.0

crystal pond
#

He still will be aspect

rain cave
#

murozond IS nozdormu

#

it's a different name not a different being

upper pasture
#

no shit

rain cave
#

he wouldn't lose any special time powers just because his mind changes

upper pasture
#

i'd bet when using his powers to save himself and alter the timeline to become Murozond he will lose a major chunk of his powers

#

hence why he wouldn't be an aspect anymore

rain cave
#

they already technically aren't aspects then

crystal pond
#

Neltharion was still the black aspect when he became deathwing

rain cave
#

yeah that too

#

aspect is both a power and title thing

upper pasture
#

hmm...

rain cave
#

but the power side is kind of gone now

#

they aren't empowered

crystal pond
#

They probably will get powers back and then murozond will happen

#

Because murozond is crazy af

#

By mind and time power

rain cave
#

and alexstrasza dying would play into what the old gods/ void want

#

I imagine

upper pasture
#

we've had a few dragons die already so i don't think we will be seeing a lot more of it

chilly horizon
#

whats this channel about?

upper pasture
#

there's other ways to progress a story than killing off characters

rain cave
#

well yeah but considering they are literally saying "there will be one aspect, and X will happen"

#

and there are

#

2 aspects...

upper pasture
#

and a fallen aspect can lose their powers so it's literally like a 50/50 shot of either happening

crystal pond
#

Alextrasza must die, so we will get aspect death combo
Or they need to reincarnate someone (Ysera and Malygos/Neltharion)

rain cave
#

aspects already lost their powers

#

murozond is a strong boy

crystal pond
rain cave
#

because we also had the help from a fully aspect powered nozdormu

upper pasture
#

clearly the aspects get powers back because right now nozdormu is just normal

rain cave
#

and the hourglass

#

if you count the times we reset it's more like we threw 20-30 people at murozond

#

a full raidboss

#

and we had help

crystal pond
#

I hope muro will get a raid

rain cave
#

alternatively

#

"golden one claims a vacant throne" switch

#

golden one nozdormu

#

vacant throne aspect status

#

or

#

alexstrasza dying

crystal pond
#

Its turalyon, no?

rain cave
#

and her role as monarch

rain cave
#

since they might bait us

crystal pond
#

"the crown of light will bring only darkness"

rain cave
#

yeah a seperate whisper

crystal pond
#

Its turalyon

crystal pond
proper palm
#

Maybe Anduin ?

rain cave
#

you could argue the bronze dragon flight are light empowered

#

because time magic of their variety is VERY close to lights theming and design

upper pasture
#

or here me out

rain cave
#

it's golden, focuses on maintaining a single timeline

upper pasture
#

blizzard "forgets" about those whispers

rain cave
#

whereas the infinite are confirmed to be void

#

and all about multiple timelines

#

and possibiities

rain cave
#

time magic is very distinctly seperate ffrom just "arcane"

proper palm
rain cave
#

amanthul is time guy, there's another titan specifically for arcane magic

glad niche
#

I don't think the infinite are void. Iirc the infinite are yet another misguided attempt to protect creation from "the indescribable awful stuff beyond comprehension"

#

and the void was tied into said ubber bad wasnt it

rain cave
#

the are

#

they're literally tied to the old gods

crystal pond
rain cave
#

time magic can be done by multiple types of magic

#

arcane included

#

but we can also see it's very similar to light and void

glad niche
#

Im misremembering what the uber bad was then, cause the whole old gods are also a "stop the worst stuff" arent they? just like, the WORST option

rain cave
#

which is my point

#

infinite are tied to the old gods

#

and their time magic is all about infinite possibilities

#

like the voids doctrine

crystal pond
rain cave
#

whereas the bronze are all about maintaining a single "true" narrative

#

which is what the light wants

upper pasture
#

i mean most bad guys think they are stopping a worse cause just because they think their views are better

dense plover
#

infinite are not those bad guys

#

theyre literally working to free the void

#

they literally are insane

crystal pond
#

Yeah

rain cave
#

in current lore: nozdormu gets tricked by the old gods into shattering the timeways

dense plover
#

a dragon becomes infinite when its intended death is prevented

#

theyre supposed to be dead

rain cave
#

that's why they're all cracked right?

#

they're like animated corpses out of time because they shouldn't be alive

crystal pond
#

It was sayed that murozond was corrupted by old gods
And now i understand how it can happen
We have black empire timeline yall

rain cave
#

no we don't

harsh mason
rain cave
#

we have the grand time adventure map that's in black empire

#

that could be the past

rain cave
#

and it is most likely a new torghast/visions/deaths of chromie scenario type thing

#

which to me implies it might not be very lore important

crystal pond
#

Nozdormu or someone can bring the corruption from the past and opsie will happen

harsh mason
#

But according to Chrono-Lord Deimos, he will become a new aspect, but already under the name Murozond

crystal pond
rain cave
#

if they bring corruption/void shit from the past it's just old gods gul'dan plot then

#

they most likely won't tie things into alternate universe/timetravel so heavily like they did with WoD

crystal pond
#

But actually it can work
Nozdormu get dragon soul from the past so why the heck not?

rain cave
#

no

harsh mason
rain cave
#

we got dragon soul from the past

#

and put it back

crystal pond
#

Yeah old gods defeated but void isnt
Void lord still exist ya know

harsh mason
#

By the way, we do not know from what time he arrived in Uldaman

dense plover
rain cave
#

I said that

dense plover
#

thats not interfering

#

because we put it back

crystal pond
rain cave
#

I never said

#

it was interferring

rain cave
#

one was a glancing shot that weakened him

crystal pond
#

3

rain cave
#

and the 2nd killed him after he crashed into maelstrom

crystal pond
#

First at blight
Second in sky
And final that killed him

rain cave
#

?

crystal pond
#

We shoted at him 3 times

rain cave
#

he got shot in the sky at dragonblight

harsh mason
rain cave
#

and then another time to kill him

#

he fell out of the sky because we were literally on his back breaking his plates and he fell apart

#

he was injured as well

crystal pond
#

First at blight
Second in the sky on this flying boat
And then in maelstrom

harsh mason
#

His dragonflight is on the verge of extinction, have you thought about it?

rain cave
#

it's spine of deathwing

#

we literally rip him apart on his back

#

that's why he falls

harsh mason
#

And just after Deathwing's death, after all the time interference

upper pasture
#

yeah i'm pretty sure we hit him again before spine fight

crystal pond
upper pasture
#

or atleast took another shot at him

deep pawn
#

You get two cutscenes. First after you kill the vertical dragon, that grazed him

#

Second after the boat fight which opened the spot on the back

#

Then finally thrall lands a hit that makes him crash

rain cave
#

ok yeah you're right

#

3 shots

#

so wtf is the point of spine fight

#

when it literally doesn't do anything

#

😭

upper pasture
#

we rip off his armor?

rain cave
#

his armour didn't stop it

#

it's a fucking god power laser beam

#

that ripped straight through his metal

upper pasture
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

harsh mason
deep pawn
#

Thrall didn't have energy to constantly take pot shots so we opened him up to make him nice and tender.

harsh mason
#

For example, the extinction of his dragonflight after Deathwing's death

glad niche
#

We slowed him down enough via ouchies for thralls awful aim to hit em

crystal pond
#

Imagine if dragon soul will be human deathwing form and then deathwing dragon form
But blizzard just give us green jesus memes

rain cave
#

I mean I feel like if they're going to corrupt nozdormu it will be because of void reasons

#

because that's the prophecy

crystal pond
#

Maybe twilights will play role in it

harsh mason
#

Nozdormu himself does not know how this will happen

rain cave
#

well yeah

#

I never specified

#

what would happen

#

I'm speculating on what might happen

harsh mason
#

He can become like this because of the infinity dragons, for example. Since they are already striving to do this

rain cave
#

well no if they want to follow the lore

#

he gets tricked by old gods/ void lords

deep pawn
#

We have a dragon expansion and the last hanging dragon plot even is Nozdormu falling

rain cave
#

into shattering the timeways

#

we don't know how

#

and it can even be revealed after the fact it was the old gods

#

like if somehow alexstrasza dies

#

and he goes mad tries to undo it all

crystal pond
#

Rafaam will be play role 100%

rain cave
#

ends up shattering the timeways

deep pawn
#

They can tie in chromie even that her being around is what let's us succeed and thus why they tried to kill her.

crystal pond
#

I juat forgot ablut this guy dracthyr_lulmao

rain cave
#

and then it's revealed the old gods and void were behind alex's death

#

my bet is that the belf girl

#

the one that grew up from BC

#

she might play a part in alexstrasza's death

#

and it could be revealed she's been whispered to this entire time by the void

deep pawn
#

You think they will kill off the last two original aspects in one expansion?

rain cave
#

well it's a new chapter

#

why not

#

bring in some new blood

#

we already have ysera's replacement

#

and I'd argue nozdormu's too

#

kalecgos is replacing malygos

deep pawn
#

Do the reds even have a back up successor?

crystal pond
#

Mura will not die in this expac
He died in cata

rain cave
deep pawn
#

Technically murazond is already dead in our personal timeline

rain cave
#

there could just be more

#

from other timelines

deep pawn
#

But let's river song this sucker

rain cave
harsh mason
rain cave
#

but alex has her consort I believe

harsh mason
rain cave
#

that's true xalatath yet has a role to paly

harsh mason
#

So it doesn't change anything

#

Eh, I feel that Alexstrasza and Nozdormu will die, thereby there will be no more original aspects

rain cave
#

she did say a new age of dragons in the trailer

#

and the primalists are directly in counter to the aspects

#

she's a direct target

#

also there's definetly something under tyrs hold

#

that the giant light rock is holding back

#

or something

deep pawn
#

If Chromie was the only one capable of taking over successfully she could keep enough bronze's from becoming infinite that we win in the end.

#

She does seem to have the most control over time outside of Nozdormu himself

#

It would also be perfectly satisfying to fight him after he shatters time and weaken him that he escapes to the end time where we kill him

rain cave
#

I'm all for chromie supremacy

#

Nozdormu ingame just feels like he's a doomer centrist

#

Gigachad chromie just goes and meets her future self and figures out how she dies to stop it and not go infinite

#

Whereas noz is like "woe is me guess I'm fucked"

crystal pond
#

Imagine if chromie will die in this expac dracthyr_a1

dense plover
#

killing off an npc that the entire community loves would be a mistake

#

that is a bad idea

glad niche
#

that but also chromie time

#

im left to currently understand, the chromie handling that is current timeline chromie

#

so if current chromie died... ?

#

Also chromie is the second best bronze and wibble wobbling the tie streams (second to Nozdormu)

#

So for nozdormus eventual downfall, someone would have to be the new leader

tender cypress
#

Anachronos?

#

Soridormi?

glad niche
#

idk those names, i just know from the bits ive read off wowpedia and such that chromie is apparently the second best at time manipulation magic

dense plover
#

chromie would not be in charge

#

she isnt anywhere near the leader of the flight

#

anachronos and soridormi definitely make more sense

livid walrus
#

Soridormi might die. Might not. She has new npc id in DF. But she also was part in karioz hourglass vision where she is killed.

glad niche
#

hmmm

ionic terrace
#

she has three new ids, two of which are wearing armor

#

i linked it a few days ago

livid walrus
#

She wears waiste of time.

crystal pond
#

Waste of time

ionic terrace
#

yes I did get a chuckle out of that, peach said others do too

#

Eternos (from Oculus) also has a DF id

austere gazelle
deep pawn
#

Was attempted and beaten. The key aspect of it was the attempt to kill her at multiple points of time all at once.

#

So in many ways it has happened

glad niche
#

new drake got chunky face

uncut vault
#

that's what allowed them to empower thrall

#

being an aspect is as much about fulfilling the duty of an aspect as it is the power

plain violet

I hope the cinematics will show old Netlharion as he was before.
