DKs are getting all of their issues fixed
theyre trying to help guardian druids too
@worldly storm Yes. I quite enjoy BM. The DoD build is fun, especially when you get good procs
Kept getting between 33-41k on pull on mythic Mekka, resting at 24-26k after until intermission. 18k-20 after intermission.
I hope they dont change much on MM Hunter. I love MM how it is now. playing without a pet and bursting everyone down in seconds is that kind of hunter I love to play
I hope they make BFA more "dangerous" like Vanilla, be more like Hard mode, when i go out from Stormwind, theres dangerous Azeroth waiting me. Not like now, im phasing from zone to zone doing pointless things casually. It feels like theres literally game button PLAY and whole BFA plays by itself, ur just here to observe and pay.
not gonna happen
first of all, its an mmo
second of all, most people dont have time for that
thats what makes WQs great
if you only have 30 min, you can get some stuff done without feeling like you are constantly a million miles behind
also, vanilla wasnt hard because of difficulty
it was hard because it was slow
I feel like the solution to that would be (in 9.0, not BfA), bringing back elite areas as additional world quests
it took everything you had to kill one mob and then you had to eat after
thats lame
not fun
there are elite areas in nazjatar
at least during some WQs
some areas get infested with mobs where the lowest health is 400k or so
There are scenario spawns, which are good
I mean like, up for 24 hours, go do it if you have a group ones
theres a couple of elite only areas as well
One or two up at a time, at all times
Those are only in the pre-questing phase
Theyβre gone when you get the tidestone and the raid opens
oh
thats lame
i understand why
but its still lame
has anyone figured out what the zone wide WQ rewards are?
where a bunch of elites spawn with the big stars
PTR went down just as we won a battle for nazjatar π
Shutdown?
i guess shutdown since all realms are still offline now.
Hope we get some broadcast text
Yeah, think it was about 2gb
new icon?
It's to tell you that you need to use a portal
well yes
Ah I guess that's the new travel guide they talked about, wanted to make it easier to find your way around
We got 8.2's music!
IS PTR on?

A lot more than that, but probably best to just view the video when wowhead or such show it π nice preview though
MUSIIIIIIIIIIIIIC
Here is one of the many many files
i wont upload them all, but this is a preview of the quality
its some kind of heroic theme
hehe beat you by a tad mr π thanks though love the music! it's gorgeous
my guess is its theme music for the raid
Sounds amazing
probably one of the first pieces
Give me all of it
sort by type mp3
you bugger :V lol but yeah, it's most likely Nazjatar and raid music
giant crab is an achievement mount
Undersea Usurper
new island music too i think
also reminds me of drustvar
which is strange
because I thought drustvar was done
oh damn
naz portal looking sweet
load screens in?
no
ooo i love the music alot, i cant wait to hear it with the zones and sounds of combat o-o
@uncut vault It isnt actually located there, thats just an icon taking you to the actual map, like argus
prepare yourselves
highmountain HoA music
im like 90% sure
oh damn
now im conflicted
damn the first quest when you get to nazjatar as alliance shocked me, not sure if it's new for this patch since I haven't played PTR in awhile
I hope thats true, but even then, its a terrible spot
might be snowpaw island music
and its only on the kul tiras map
and also not stylized to indicate its not actually a part of this map like argus
it is going to be on the zandalar map
definitely snowpaw music
theres a lot of this style
island theme mixed with pandaren music
"Test characters are now granted access to all Rank 3 Essences within the class Proving Grounds. Players can access the Proving Grounds by speaking to their respective class trainer in a capital city"
mightve started to find mechagon music
im not 100% because no file names
but it seems likely
it has the mechanical sound
definitely
just found a version with bassoon and horns
a goblin version
well the pvp azerite trait is hilariously underwhelming
you dont get to choose, it has a set passive one
yes, typo
oh ok
ofc you dont get to choose
that would e busted
and then everyone would use it
especially since you get it outside of pvp
I mean, now nobody is gonna use it lol
the ones chosen are some of the worst ones that nobody picks
also, about that training ground thing
they might change it
blizz forgot to put a rested area
XD
you cant change traits
So I race changed my night elf to tauren, but can't seem to get the heritage armor quest
I was assuming I could do it
you need to be exalted and have done the baine quest
Ah the baine quest
Found different mechagon music
they definitely need to upgrade all the other portals
cause this is out of place lol
FYI these are my naming schemes
not official
oh damn
some of this mechagon stuff sounds like some of the band stuff ive played
love it
Alright well, on another tauren now. Baine quest done and exalted. Quest is not there
theyre also mixing in some tropical themes
to remind the island aesthetic
take a listen
and theyre reusing bits from the MOTHERLODE
like references
not cut and paste
mixed with gnome stuff
its really really great
So whats new after restart?
I mean the files are named nazjatar

Sounds good
All Music from content update Rise of Azshara in WoW BfA 8.2 00:00 Glenn Stafford 11:48 Glenn Stafford, Leo Kaliski 22:38 Mechagon 53:27 Glenn Stafford 01:04...
Is there a NPC for equipment?
Companions have a blue health bar and when clicked on now show their level
lots of detail added to newhome
and probably all of nazjatar
crucible of flaame has a new icon
flight map is in
Nazjatar emmisary in
CAn you seee dmg numbers?
they removed the color on the benthic and pearled tags
theyre just green
@unreal minnow can you normally?
pretty sure its an option to toggle
I cannot see them.
π
Do we have an ETA as to when 8.2 is going to be out?
no
Grizzek and Saphronetta have unique on click VO
not complex
basic stuff
but its cool
or i havent clicked enough gnomes and goblins
i could be wrong
Im really curious why they still dont added the full Velonara quest on the ptr. mhh maybe its 8.2.5 content
i don't understand shit about that Velonara quest tbh lul
I think thats where they will probably introduce Calia or something
since we had back in 8.1 datamined ingame Propaganda books about Calia and they still not in the game, right?
dont put that idea in my head
this channel is bugged for me
@zealous basalt what's the problem?
notifications are kinda odd
whenever i check on here and scroll down it just doesn't registers that i saw it and it keeps getting lit
dat worked
Tinitoa
EXCELLENT REFERENCE
in regards to the murloc dance question from earlier
its the karazhan dance
@unreal minnow try this
I fixed it, thank you β€
So i want to do essence chain. Earthen Guardian is not giving me starting quest. What i am missing?
thats no longer the starting quest
you now need to do Nazjatar up to getting your base
Oh alright. Thanks
you know, with the new whispers in mind, I think the eye of nzoth might continue into 8.2
some of the whispers in 8.1.5 have yet to be whispered
such as this one, which seems like it would work very well with the horde war campaign
"With every choice, you become more my servant."
Do we have new locations to access the proving grounds?
You know, I find very iconic that our first essence came from a black dragon
the big star icon for the naga commanders has chaanged
its a trident now
oh my god
they made it so you can mount in the newhome cave
so good
10/10 mounting in the cave saved bfa
kek
@serene marsh hey, do you think its worth to watch out again for the old whispers and visions we had when bfA started? since we know now a lot more.
like this one: https://www.wowhead.com/news=278675/the-visions-of-ogmot-the-steadfast-spoilers#journal-page-10
With each new PTR build, new items are added to loot tables from mobs. The latest build added a new item to Ogmog the Mad, at the Wound in the World: Visions of Ogmog the Steadfast. Warning: Possible Spoilers and Speculation ahead.
oboi
yeah those were fun π I should revisit barrowknoll
Mysterious Whisper whispers: Her blood is making him stronger. Yours will, too.
yea thats pretty much Azeroth
but that one: Mysterious Whisper whispers: "Night falls. Her song will end."
similiar to the Nzoth whisper from 8.1.5
well the first whisper relates not just to azeroth but the azshara fight
mhh probably youre right
So how come Jaina ( for Horde) and Gammon ( for Alliance) are fighting for Azshara ? I am confused.
because that's what the writers wanted
pretty sure there is a logical explanation for this
DnD wrote script ?
The explanation is that they wanted characters who could work with the other faction, Jaina usually fits that bill, and Greymane got pre-neutered in before the Storm, so now he just cares about Sylvanas
Gammon will save us all
Neptulon, Gral (and his child), and Ozumat show up outside the walls around Nazjatar (someone one Wowpedia glitched through them to get better pics)
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/572810203859255298/581533202036948992/unknown.png
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/572810203859255298/581534050343452677/unknown.png
@jade basalt in pic 2 isnt that tortolla?(or whatever the turtle loa was called),also blizz said they wanted to finish the ozumat+neptulon storyline with a raid all the way back in cata,so maybe we're getting it now.
absolutely best case scenario but also highly unlikely is if we get the throne of the tides raid from cataclysm(which there is a model in the files for and an entrance in vash'jr) as a miniraid
Is there any addons that work with the PTR or no?
They might break things
The problem with using addon is you might report something as a bug
When the problem is the addon
I purposefully do not use any addons on ptr so I can report any bugs I run into
And provide suggestions
@strange falcon Just a random turtle, there are some beyond the water walls
I, Gamon, will save us!
Next warchief is gamon confirmed
kek
And he is going to be on the pub we find him in vanilla

I wonder if we get anything on live on Tuesday
Hopefully a new magni quest atleast lol
They gave the Org portal room an actual name
What is it
Df they did ?
you know
with all the stuff they are adding into nazjatar i wonder
what will the next area have?
So if there indeed is
a 3rd zone
i'm expecting Ny'alotha
And i'm not expecting Ny'alotha to be real
I'm expecting it to be a dream, quite similar to the emerald nightmare
Super unlikely imo
Dragon isles would make the most sense
Dragons are being built up as part of 8.2
And itβs an actual physical place
They wouldnβt make a whole zone of a dream, like emerald dream was only a small section
Not really
Dragon isles has a few old god motifs
Big weird tentacle thing with a shell
but is that really confirmed?
And with dragons becoming relevant, itβs imo the most likely
It is confirmed canon bare minimum
And I imagine they would use the concept art with the big fossil thing
That art
It IS canon tho - which had been a question for a while
Hopefully it would mean finally getting wrathion lore as well
inb4 the first thing datamined is a new wrathion model
i want him to be a whelp forever tho
I say 8.3 will be a) dragon isles or b) ny'alotha
well yea
since the last interview I can really see how they dont make a full black empire expansion and make it just a 8,3 patch
They'd really be shooting themselves in the foot if they took something like the return of the Black Empire and made it patch content and not an Xpac worth of content
Imagine you're Nzoth, living million of years, plotting shit for over 100 thousand of years, just to get fucked over in a patch
feelsbadman for him if he gonna end as loot fodder in BfA
Do you mean Sargeras?
Or probably one patch in nyalotha and then forward it into a full black empire expac
"The team believes the two-year expansion cycle with three major content patches is the right thing right now."
RIP people hoping for an 8.4
I just think the story could benefit. I don't see how this ends in one more patch
it will just go into prepatch for 9.0
we miht get 8.3.5 with some goodies
and then go into next expansion
I really hope they take ideas and gameplay from classic and implement it into the next expansion
If they wanted something from classic it would be ingame already
I don't want any of this classic stuff in the game - they haven't removed most of this old stuff for no reason.
Yup
Is there a re-usable augment rune in the ptr?
I thought they said legendary effects were on testeable on the proving grounds?
dah, my bad
moving it here
so is it 100% confirmed there's no additional wheel of traits? like no 3rd wheel of primary traits for more combos in 8.2?
just the titan essences?
Havent seen news about it, but i think they are focused on reworking the whole system with the new traits of the Heart
it seems 8.2 wont do much to help bfa.
9.0 and the A team cant get here soon enough
Still need 8.3
Wonder if they would pull the same this blizzcon
Exp announcement with big ass spoilers
what kind of miracle will 8.3 pull off to fix bfa?
shirtless genn
legion got better in 7.1 tho
I'd say 7.2
7.2 was broken shore tho, that was bad
it was 7.1
I mean, makes stuff less boring than 8.1
oh was it
7.1 was shit as fuck, like really
the story in nazjatar is meaningless
the zone is dull
mechagon is the high light
that stupid focus on the damn shal'dorei
...
7.1 had one of the best raids ever
the... the raid
had karazhan
was about shaldorei
had better m+
they had the right amount of focus lol
it was the amount of focus the naga should be getting, not 4 quests in 3 weeks
I am happy that we are getting rid of that fish
arent you happy nazjatar is literaly just a bunch of scatered buildings
that looks more like a camp
tha a capital of anything
if the upcoming sylvanas fight does not include Genn because "he is busy elsewhere" I'm gonna throw a tantrum
I mean, what did you want? a full focus for Nazjatar?
tyrande will probably go evil or become the story laughing joke in 8.3
mh yes?
i wasnt expecting a worse version of argus
i wasnt expecting 3 weeks of time gated story
i wasnt expecting all the wrong characthers there
i wasnt expecting that azshara is there just for a plot point
If that's how they can shut down that part of the story for new things, they are all welcomed
i was expecting something at least "decent" or at least mediocre
the only decent char choice for nazjatar is Lor'themar
Never liked the naga story tbh
oh you dont like it
but you think that something hinted from wc3
should only get a half of a patch
because we all know the actual story is going to happen after the raid
azshara dies, nzoth is free and sylvester reveals her plot
making nazjatar as relevant as a big island expedition
id rather have that
and i like night elves, who i know
will be villified or be put in the wrong because they dont want anduin's peace
they like managed to piss of basicaly every major group of the playerbase
Major group?
people that care for gameplay, people that like raids, people that like story, people that like specific races
if you dont like humans, orcs or baine this story is atrocious
Never liked Baine.
at least eso and ff14 are getting traction
Cairne was cool
better mmo's should get even more attention
Lol
...ESO...better?
Ff14 is getting a new xpac the same day 8.2 is supposedly launching
I'm with makore
than wow? for story, lore, ambient and questing ? yes
wow is extremely atrocious right now so that isnt saying anything
@night swift We have zero idea when 8.2 launches
I am sorry but
Its kinda hard to compare eso to wow
Yeah, really different
Which is why I say βSupposedlyβ
and the real story happens after the raid
8.2 is still a big patch
Still need 8.2.5
just not as big as it could or should have been
wich is where the actual plot will happen i asume
No other MMO has ever been able to keep me like WoW does.
we're still missing any kind of class balance and heroic war fronts
the trash gnomes are better than the naga capital
The lore alone far surpasses any other MMO
Your issue there is that Nazjatar was made a smaller zone
I mean, nothing bad there
eso has tons of lore to every bit of thing you find in the gameplay
Lol
nazjatar is a big zone, but it's not what it's supposed to be like
we literaly had the chronicles retconed in the same expact they were released
Ff14 lore builds just by playing the main story
we already have characthers acting out of lore from legion with thalysra making up lies
Which is how you progress the game
"REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. WoW is bad. It's a dead MMO 4head"
- Maythemoonruleoveryana#1851
we dont have any consistency in events, how magic works
wow lore is so good we have discussions about how much free will forsaken have because a tweet made things more confusing
the last novel had forsaken literaly act out of characther in their society
wow lore is not good
XD
They also have the problem of making more lore in the books and side things but then in WoW they use like scraps of it
Maythemoonruleoveryana seems to be a McConnell wannabe
but then we go to nazmir and we see a forsaken cut in half
and he just gets up
forsaken cant have any past memories and atachement to lordaeron and burn books, but sylvannas has a whole speech in cata leveling of how the forsaken are the people of lordaeron in life and death
if this is good lore
then i sugest you get into comics
you have the same amount of consistency
but its more self aware
Cx
such amazing lore.
And all because Nazjatar isn't as big as how some people want it.
is not a question of wanting
its a question of "deserves"
if you think something like nazjatar deserves to be reduced to this after years of hinting and speculation
Naga don't deserve a lot of attention rather than being put on spikes along their unworthy queen
There's such thing as engine limitations xD
Also that
engine limitations they dont mind creating those fancy water walls
Lol
Because it would take a lot to do those stuff and would take countless things to add
and such limitations the zone is badly used
and it would make things bored
You just love reeing
Heck
People like to trash on the size of Suramar because it is supposed to be enormous
But in my humble opinion
i have never ever seen anyone complain about the scale of suramar
...That--
i have seen people say its not too easy to navigate, that you cant just walk around witout mobs
and that is hell witout flying
Was a big topic before, like it is even said nowadays that it neeeded to be more big
Heck, I don't think if you have realized but Azeroth is heavily downscaled to our pleasure
i do realize
because of the books paint a difrent scale
that is why suramar is the perfect size
nazjatar is not
it doesnt look or feel like a city or a capital
And maybe you have to ask yourself that Nazjatar was developed that way because it would take a lot to explore or to have relevant content for it
ahh such exploration an meanigfull content
boring world quests we have always seen
And even if it doesnt look like a city it is 'maybe' because we are supposed to be in a smaller section by pure coincidence only accessing to whateverthename of the city is
It's literally the RUINS of Zin'azshari lol
it isnt a coincidence, we see the palace and there isnt anything else in the surrounding area
im talking a bout nazjatar?
the naga city?
i mean you usee "reeee" unironicaly
so i dont expect much smarts of you
If you expected a massive city, you clearly don't know the lore... Considering the majority of the city was completely destroyed in the Sundering
I think the important area which is the palace of Aszhara has a perfect entrance
Unless it is the back door
because how much we like to access through back doors
It is the back
Lol
but i saw
im not talking about the ruins of zin aszhari
im talking about nazjatar, not the freaking azsuna repeat
I did not expect a city because if we were on the real Nazjatar
There are bags buildings
Lol
Half the zone has them
We could have been dead
the area around the raid entrace is bare
Theyβre in the caves
Genn is weak
you have a sylvannas icon, you should enjoy it
I will build you a bridge and put it next to you if that's the case
You silence, we not talking about genn
But yes, think of Nazjatar as one part of it and not alll Nazjatar
you dont care for nazjatar or naga, but to say it didnt deserve something of a larger scale is being ignorant of how much it was hinted
and the part surrounding the statue and the entrance is bare
You can see zinc azshari and such spans much farther than what we physically go to
the buildings are scarce, it doesnt look like a city
it looks like a camp or a suburb
Peach above said it was the back door of the freaking palace
a capital of anything is supposed to have a lot of buildings all put together, not a lot of empty spots
And what if it is actually a suburb of it?
Probably the 'lowborne' part of it
due those deep sea jinju
so lowborne the tide stone is there, we see royal guards, royal gardens
but no, let's trash it and not use our brains
we see zones dedicated to scholars and factions
but no, lets accept mediocracity and not expect more
Why to expect more?
because it deserved more? because it could be more? because they should be trying their bests to provide the very best product?
I mean, Nagas aren't the selling point of it
its Mechagon and the junker gnome story
Rise and death of Azshara it seems
yes and so the last wc3 villain goes down, just a filler for nzoth wich is probably the most boring and predictable villain in the history of villains
shrug Its better if we get rid of the past links already
I don't want Azshara to die
Nazjatar is good for what it has to offer, just a back door access to the palace while Aszhara send their honor guards to their death as she teases with us with a smal glance to a small section of the ruins of Zin'ashari
since they are pretty old characther
especialy jaina
she has overstayed her presence
i cant wait for golden to leave the story, and she gets the knaak arch
meaning she gets to cry on twitter as the new writter kills her pet characthers
That is what I expect to be honest, although Anduin is not from W3, its from WoW
bombing of stormwind he dies
Gets to cry on twitter as you are crying here?
π€
And brown, sooner or later a villain has to die
jaina is a pet character
a villain that hasnt done anything in ages?
I think if Sylvanas becomes less involved it will create more story
literally a character from WC3
Irrelevant
if you dont think golden considers jaina a pet of hers
Knaak characters are literally elevated fan fic characters.
βhey blizz i made a fan fic about dragonsβ
knaak characthers never got to the point
βhey lets make this guys fan fic loreβ
Because they were that shitty. 
oh wait he dead
but jaina is absolutly one of the pet characthers of the writing team currently
her and anduin
Like Sylv and everyone else
Reminder that Knaak cemented the Windrunner Human Fetish meme.
sylv?
ah
i would love if she got that treatment
where is sylvannas 7 ingame cinamtics
Even tyrande as she got an asspull on her
but Sylvanas has no mama issues
tyrande who they had admited they dont think isnt important for azshara?
π
#realsylvanusfanboyhours in here
not realy, but it doesnt take much
to see she is being trown under the bus by the current team
and getting the villain bat, just like garrosh did
Have you ever considered
That the writers are just bad, and they think theyβre giving her a good arch?
Can you die inside xalatath
^
tthey are bad and also play favorites
jaina and her costant bipolar disorder is bad writting, but nothing bad ever comes to the little elsa lady
Saurfang is the current WoW Team favorite.
and his sad orc cinematics
And considering thrall is back
Sad Orc Time.
sad orcs, spineless cows
Sad Orc is sad
and lorthermar with his fucked up voice
It wont' surprise me if a coup happens for the war campaign of .3
or heck .2.4
.5*
AND you know what is to be expected of it?
That the coup fails
Coup fails, Sylvanas does some crazy magic and Horde is all united over
if that means saurfang dies im all for it
Sadfang is already dead. They making all this sad cinematics just to prepare the ppl for even more sadness, when he dies , also in a CGI cinematic
CGI is Orc reserved
βhey, tyrande is having an extremely important moment by becoming the night warrior. can we make her a cgi cinematic, or at least a cinematic by Terran to show off this transformation?β
βnah weβre making 10 sad orc cgi cinematics.β
take an ingame cinematic
βNo, and she loses that fightβ
...that was a hell
I still remember when everyone was "And why does Nathanos can win"
i prefer the first
or a third one Yana
no CGI for tyrande, cuz she got her revenge π
One i think its going to piss you and the night elf community
i will lose my braincells if anduin is like ' no tuhrayndyu, if we fight back we are the villaainsssssssssss, you cant be evill"
βRevengeβ
Iβm sure next expac theyβre going to frame Tyrandeβs wanting revenge for literal genocide as EVIL.
yeah that is part of villainfed
put shandris on the leadership
Nah. Just decimate night elves more.
she is already being pacified
Defanged
following jaina and gen around
not killing thalyssra and lorthermar on sight
fun stuff on nazjatar
βOh, hereβs the last minority of playable night elves serving Shandris. Tyrande is nuts now. Kill her and all her followers.β
this is literaly mists of pandaria witout any of the good
the costumization options is to brand traitors
legion was all flare, not a lot of substance, but at least it was fun
kek
Saurfang dying? By whose hand? Elune saved whom?
go to sleep
yea Tyrande is crazy evil now, she needs to pay for her crimes
βtyrande you destroyed that insignificant town. We will frame this as equivalent to teldrassil and mark you for a raid boss!!!β
Doubt it.
but im patient and young
Not taking back stuff from warcraft series
i will live enouhg for golden to leave
I suspect itβs faction war 3.0
You wish for a stupid wish, but its going to be taken on consideration
Itβll be βelune is angry also lich king and dragonsβ the expac.
I still hope that Gelbin can come back
AKA Pandaria 2.0 with zombies and dragons.
this was already pandaria
...I recognize that reference Honk
More Pandaria.
wich is even funnier
Does it come with a super nagrand?
how golden wrote that horrible elegy novel
to make everyone sad
and anduin is sad about the tree
and then tyrande is going to be avillain for wanting to do something about it
and the whole ass race with the black eyes to follow
the narrative was so human paladins could feel vindicated and go to lordaeron
If we were going realistically correct
The tree should have never be burned considering all the protectors it could have
draenei, worgen, wild gods, the sentinel army, tyrande, maiev
all of those thigns were removed by stupidity so it could be done
and it was all this dramatic effort to make everyone sadddd
Like I don't know who planned it
and i just know tyrande will want more and be treated as a villain, and anduin's point of view enforced
I mean, if this was while we were on argus
grabs popcorn
i might pass it
Anduin is probably the worst chartacther in the setting since everyone bends itself over backwards to kiss his toes
But how can you forget that the Alliance defeats the Horde in an all out combat
lets make him high king, but have him act like pandaria
I just want them to get rid of the Alliance and Horde entirely.
but instead of being a decent story of 2 points of view clashing
It would make something they don't really want
and anduin getting consequences for being stupid
he just gets all over on his papper tray
none of his mistakes get realy on his head as his fault
Considering he is young he could have a lot of consequences, that's something i give to you
arathi undead fiasco is all calia and sylvanans
none him
teldrassil is all spies and tyrande and sylvannas, not him
I suspect weβre getting Calia in 8.3
saurfang going free should be seen as a huge betrayal since he is responsible for the campaign that got the tree burned in the first place
no consequences
What was that lol
nothing anduin ever does has any meaningfull consequences and everyone around him forgets his failings
his point of view is always right
excuse me how could teldrassil be anduin's fault
jaina and him pledge for peace, so everyone is also wanting peace
he was the one to fill ogrimmar with spies to the point only an idiot would ignore them
and then gave the order to prepare the assault on silithus
his incompetence of his state of spies is partly responsible, amongst many pieces
but instead of being ever brought up its ignored
because poor anduina
Aaand with that last you messed it
he needs to be saved by jaina and alleria in lordaeron
and no one constests this kid shouldnt be leading shit
that makes no sense at all, and in the cinematic he says "you lighted the torch to teldrassil, but i failed those who burned" admiting some kind of non existing fault
there is a difrence betwen admiting and having actual consequences
I'm just going to pass over the current discussion and just ask something different
that string of bad moves should make other leaders want him out of power
...Can we get Legendary effects already on PTR?
push him away from leadership
the consequences isn't tyrande going rogue to kill the horde?
"i don't care about your war, i'll go kill MY OWN ENEMY"
alliance has space ship with army moving teleporters
wich doesnt particulary affect anduin? he should have had at least people pushing for him to be killed off
or taken away from power
βwe didnt want to include it in the story cause thats not the story we wanted to tellβ
turalyon, alleria, genn, tyrande, moira and muradin would all be pushing their own agendas and ignoring anduin
didnt use space ship to evacuate teldrassil
not having an army of nelves does not affect the leader of the faction
or even wipe out the Horde army
the spaceships aren't out of power?
No.
ship* only one
The Vindicaar is used in 8.1 for transportation
Itβs powered by the Crown of the Triumvirate.
It just isnβt as powerful as people think, and isnβt a very good offensive tool
Ei Porter
Took months to power up itβs laser
Still could have used it to bring troops rapidly to Darkshore.
and anduin should already lost any sort of politcal power in this war
And evacuate Teldrassil.
man it sucks to like night elves jesus
It sucks to suck
It sucks to like any race that isnβt humans in Warcraft
at this point im waiting for nightborne to also become the true chosen of elune or something else
Night Elves have been Blizzardβs punching bag post WC3.
Somebody with pull on the writing team hates Nelves.
thats because humans master race
it's likely alex
nelves will never reach the true human potential
Ion is a huge Hordie from what I know from someone who was in his guild.
ofc because they are not humans
but ion isn't story
He runs the fucking game
and source for that one rule
and hug trees not?
Thing is
ion is just the face of wow
Ion isn't good with story, his strong area is raid mechanics
i mean what went okay in this expac? the leveling, the battle of dazar alor as a fun raid
You see how adamant he is against helves for instance.
and mechagon
Like
everything else was a massive flop
helfs thing is a real doe
when they release solo island expeditions this will be fun
I don't think how you can become a game director in blizzard but
didn't metzen have a better reception in the story areas?
Because he was a member of the story part, right?
yes
No, because he openly put his input into the story.
He ran the game.
Thus the story too
one person ran the whole game? oh damn
...honk that was your least brillant moment
alex runs the story
What I meant is
honkhonk
So far I don't think Ion really can pull a good story because he wasn't meant for the story part
The writing team still answers to the director?
i would believe ion respects the work of other sectors of the game development
The raid design areas...
however
i can say he does a good job designing the raids
Also 'answering' doesn't mean actually saying 'write this shit in and out'
if that was the case the story of Legion and BfA would have the same level of medocrity with WoD
Either way, Ion likely has the final say on major additions like allied races or other content.
Which heavily affects story.
Considering how nervous he gets (imo) in every stream he is...I think that is his weakness, the part about deciding
Can't really blame him with a community that has that vibe of being full of psychopaths that will kill you the moment they have the chance just for a bad choice
Shutdown 
yee
10g next build is release
Unlikely
Heroic warfronts havenβt been tested yet
Lots of WQs donβt work
Etc
Two or three more major builds probably
Heroic warfronts have been up for a few builds
they have been, people just havent been much
because it requires a raid group, and also has the connotations of warfronts
gold
he meant gigabytes, and no he was just hoping
I'm pretty sure he meant 10 gold
gold
Broadcast text was updated
maybe theyre listening to the community and adding a bronze dragon
^ fuck I hope this
god i would love it
Thatβs, unfortunate
Also they are adding Azerite gear delete text
Itβll tell you how much residuum you can get from scrapping
Which hopefully means you can find that out on hover as well
On hover?
Hopefully
spits drink
Having to try to delete an item to find out how much itβs worth is dumb
mhm, neither does will of the forsaken
bout time
<Hidden> Nazjatar - Completed Quest 1 of Week 3 - Alliance (DNT)
<Hidden> Nazjatar - Completed Quest 1 of Week 3 - Horde (DNT)
Story is timegated over three weeks
similar to argus
hax
is it better than argus?
Yes
Thereβs more WQs to start
And there are side quests across the zone
Btw looks like music is implemented in this build
So we should be able to get track names
Can someone ping me when servers is up
So, which what the good? WoW Wiki?
I feel like zandalar and kul tiras should be reversed
mechagon is now started from nazjatar
and what does it do?
nothing different, its just back
hax
also, this is gonna get even more annoying for horde
having to travel all the way across dazaralor to get fron nazjatar to kul tiras
They really need to update racial mounts.
Classic is coming out, so people can go there if they want the low poly stuff.
yes
Cool
is this new?
was there last build, but yes its new
poor bronze dragons, relegated to te basement of the horde one
Down into nazjatar was changed
from 120 tasks to raise an ally to rank 3
when you try to scrap azerite gear
they locked WQ to a certain point in the nazjatar campaign
emmisary requires 3 WQs, gives 25 pearls
is it good?
25 is a good amount
I hope the nazjatar ones are always 25, and not randomly gold or AP
my guess is its always 25
plus the additional 400AP
ill keep looking for other changes
theres lots of little things
requesition quests have been moved to various related npcs
daily champion is a thing, but it seems you get a boon for completing a daily or 3 WQs or something
through the questline
then via the portal in the portal room in the new capital
heartforge stuff was sort of reset kinda?
I wonder what happened.to the personal champion quests
unlocking a new power is fancy af
think they still exist
theyre being reimplemented differently
from what it looks like
its a mix of ranking up and random
so that you dont choose the same one every day
Coolios
heart upgrade is now WAY more detailed
quest, quest giver, location, heart level, as well as changes to the major and minor power
second example
here is an example of a M+ one
rep vendor example
if you cant use one, it shows the required spec
wtf
scrying stone was changed to 5 min duration
that sucks
i hope its cheaper
