maybe he's under the orange thing 🤔
bottom left and top right have some of the blue from the nzoth map
Is WoW Tools a dataminjng website?
no easy way no i think
Cool. Thank you. I’ve been learning a lot lately.
damn
i wish there was a way like the texture tool you have
where you can see red in the areas that changed
well this is interesting
yeah
boralus map has suramar
one of those things isnt boralus :v
wonder if we will be revisiting the nightwell
and this explains the broken kunlai lake
the zone messes up the areas around it
this map is useful tho
classic schwayder
great look at design version of naz
this is naz before they actually went in on the zone
that map is fun
yeah
yeah
so modelviewer doesn't know there's terrain, bugfix for that inc soonish
I’m going to check the site out when the house empties
this is what i took a pic of yesterday with the tentacles
this
those are the same thing
one from ingame from the seven shrines area
one from the dev map
provides a sense of scale
they move around too
its pretty sick
yeah those orthographic maps dont do them justice
actually
how do they move around
that would mean they're M2s
but those wouldnt be on map 🤔
something to investigate later
new uldum fucked that up as well
on ptr, you cant fly over ahnqiraj, and the floor is gone
new uldum fucked it
a timeless terrain phasing classic
might be that some tentacles dont move
and some do marl
noticing more tentacles in game than on map
thats a yikes from me
?
Is this mogu cannon newly added to ptr or did it already existed since MoP? I wonder if they added some new Mogu objects since I don't remember seeing this during MoP.
we might see 8.3 before the anniversary event
so everytime i load WoW
A new friendly mogu group is interesting
theres been a bunch of changes to the classic alterac
3d assets doesnt load
that might be why it was removed from the calendar
we might see a fuck ton of builds before blizzcon
if Mogu will be ARs, they better update the Mogu character model....
I doubt they will
I believe that’s to help compensate for the heart increase
does anyone know if vulpera are going to be able to play monk
They are
oh thank god
Asking cause goblins can't and they use the same skeleton?
Somebody said new allied races look good 😂
yeah that’s what I was worried about
I didn’t know if they had monk animations but luckily they do
Worgen do too
And they can't be monks
it is kind of weird. I really am glad vulpera can play monk though cause I am going to use the roll skill like my life depends on it
N’Zoth is gonna feel smug until he sees me rolling downhill towards him at the speed of light
Fun interaction: rolling off cliffs/elevated places acts like a superjump
Even if you fall off a platform and roll before reaching the ground, as long as there's a second platform, you superjump
that would be cool
Roll = increase movement speed for a short period of time while locking the player in a player determined motion
i am kind of curious about how they're going to fit the tail on gear for vulpera. like besides pandaren females who have like a tiny raccoon tail for some fur colors (for whatever reasons) vulpera are the first race i think with like a defined tail
So it interacts weirdly with map geometry
Draenei males.
o shit didnt think of that
No Ron
Go find Becky
i really wonder if bliz is going to bother balancing out the druid classes available in the allied races
because so far horde has two and alliance has one
and im sure as shit that mechagnomes cant be druids
They can
SIKE
are you-
oh thank god
My reaction to the patch
I'm hoping for tinkers now but I'll be conflicted if they happen
if i saw some kind of robot cyborg cat charging through dreamgrove i'd just think
Cause my main is and always will be a hunter but I love the engineering aesthetic
ysera didnt die for this shit
So while I wouldn't want to reroll my main I'd have to secondary
however, regardless of what it is, if the next class added doesn't wear mail I'm going to flip my shit
ditto
i'm druid main though i really like monk as well
Monks are so versatile, I love 'em
Not the hardest class to play either
the roll ability is my favorite skill possibility out of all classes
That would be warlock, imo
I could never play one
i live and breathe feral druid
every druid toon i have is feral though i do play a zandalari balance druid because i really love their moonkin form
i play all 4 specs
I said monks are versatile, not most versatile
living up to the versatility
Druids, monks and pallies are the most versatile anyway
this is old news but i live in constant rage and turmoil that i could not get through the guardian druid mage tower back in legion
i missed a really cool bear form appearance
hey i have a question
Too many Khadgars, my friend
i did get feral mage tower though but that wasn't all that difficult
do these kind of patches with included raids always had the dialogue of what happens after the raid itself?
Do you call a buff Khadgar, Chadgar?
The next Alliance race will be both a paladin and druid race
@zealous basalt What races make up the Uldum Accord and Rajani?
The uldum are those bird centaur things and the rajani are mogu
Tolvir and Mogu/Pandas right?
ye
Huh
Well. I think the Mogu are far more Horde inclined
So, once again. Narrowing down the ARs to Jinyu and Sethrak
jinyu druids would be cool i'd love to play as some kind of aquatic/fish-themed feral druid
Sethrak druids?
Or just the snakes?
they already have aquatic-themed mounts in nazjatar that use the cat skeleton and those look awesome so
they would make awesome druid forms
hey did you see we get to serve nzoth?
In the new pvp faction
Uhh like that harpy faction from legion
just the snakes
I'd be happy with both
thought one of the adventure playable characters
is a sethrak shaman
vessina
it's called
Yeah from Dalaran Heist
Before I quit that awful game
if we do get sethrak im going to name my character a boring human name but lay down on s
for example ssssteven
ssssstanley
sssssseth
I have Taahm and Keentch reserved for Jinyu
All hail nzoth
how do you hail nzoth
to get into a free for all with even your own faction
i dont even remember what nzoth is supposed to look like isnt he a giant octopus or something
is he even a visible entity
all hail the Giant Octopus
there is a datamined model
and bellular has it
in the thumbnail
for latest vid
Yeah
Its his hearthstone design
man fuck anduin, fuck sylvanas or whoever, i'm gonna declare loyalty to the GIANT PURPLE OCTOPUS
And in the next expac
You can do it to Yogg and Cthun
i wonder if this new nzoth faction or whatever will have a capital city
can we call it tentacle town
I WONDER
nzoth faction guild name idea: tentacle town
HOW TO BECOME A NZOTH SERVANT
YES
but how do you
get said quest
I have the eye of the fish
do i have to get into warmode
i'm actually really excited for this because characters who are made to be batshit evil can finally get a defined faction for that
'hol up in that screenshot @strange falcon is the character giving the quest supposed to be you?
oh damn thats whack
ooh i see
that wouldve been cool though if like you see yourself as a shadowy void NPC and you give yourself your own quest
"quit your job, join my emo band"
oh god I just read some of this patch text they're really giving up on having a new warchief for the horde
they're just forming some kind of council
man thats cool and all, but now who's gonna going to get to stand in front the big throne in hold at the center of orgrimmar
this is what im really concerned about
all 3 lul
they will replace the big throne by a big table with 3 chairs
gnomish army
ah cool a void dragon mount
WRATHION FINALLY HAS HIS DRAKE FORM
IM SO PROUD OF YOU SON
Nzoth assault
He gets corrupte
But we save him
now im sad
OH THANK GOD
wrathion is my son i remember when he was an egg in cata and we had to pass him from person to person
but then he dies
dies of curiosity because he is confused about humans and relationships
makore's having too much fun
Man
mechagnomes' arms and legs are too
shiny
Like
compare it with armors at 10
oof crash
i dont even
game keeps crashing for me
plans seem to be a week
Wait is 8.3 on PTR?
Ye
yeah I can't do vale anymore either
interesting to have a moving raid entrance
I wonder if it changes where we enter the raid, too
so there's different 1st bosses each week
so everyone has changed their profile icons to vulperas huh? ^
now that they are official
I remember when
weird tenmtacle
changed it to vulpera when 8.0 stuff had them as AR in files, changed it again now because hype
DON'T GO THERE PEACH
rip peach inc
THAT WAS WHERE I GOT THE ERROR
yup
well
F
good thing its a tuesday'
And you won't be able to play again
chances of that bug being fixed are high
you can play on other chars
time to report it tbh
it auto reports crashes
So it's a bug that needs to be fixed
theres something fucked in the build file
itll be fixed
its ptr
itll probably be fixed today or tomorrow
they put it out on monday for a reason, they probably plan to pump out builds as fast as possible
didnt crash my computer tho
just gonna wait for next build
yeah I think the computer crash is seperate
because I crashed there 5 times but my PC is fine
so, from what I can gather, the mobs in the zone are 20% consistent
friend who I played with too
in that during the different invasions some parts of that invasion are there through all of them
also, the location of the invasion is different depending on which one is active
this is likely to help avoid burnout
since the visuals of the different parts are somewhat distinct
along with the mobs and probably structures
i guess uldum is not purple-ish now that N'zoth is gone from there
actually, what invasion is in uldum now?
I still cant believe they're releasing the uglier gnomes
theres like fire golems and stuff
but not functioning
Oh huh
because normally when you fly through the raid portal there is an error, there isn't one now
ooooo
so it exists and doesn't exist
yep, 3 per zone
Neat
same story progress on both chars so unlikely
I want a lil’zoth pet
huuuh halls of origination dungeon portal doesn't work
during invasion by amathet, the tower and area nearby are active
goal seems to be getting it fully active
also there are WQs they just dont show up on the map or in tracking - they are not fully implemented
nzoth structures did not despawn - probably a bug considering they werent in vale yesterday or even earlier today but now are
rewards MIGHT be based on ilvl
tbh this invasion seems a bit bugged
both invasions are, yeah
lots of things that spawned during nzoth invasion arent here
so it seems like the tagging for what does and doesnt spawn is fucked
and in vale the "world quests" worked fine
like, all of the nzoth structures are still going on
they were on the minimap and gave the full rewards when compelted
I think it might be intentional
just fun little events you see when you get close
and there are no amathet structures
yeah these should probably not be here
big floaty platform too
Is the Auction House still the same?
I can't believe we're getting a void themed patch and Shadow Priest's shadowform is still ugly
https://media.giphy.com/media/QA1OOds4E4NsNCjepU/giphy.gif
Wasn't sure if this was posted or not, but the Guardian Druid Mage tower appearance now has a dance animation
what dance is that lol
Pee wee Herman tequila dance I believe
Pee-wee's Big Adventure Directed by Tim Burton 1985
👀
Looks like he’s had some sips lol
HS isnt canon
Imagine if it was cannon and it existed in another universe of wow
where instead of raids, they all hangout in the tavern playing hs
it does look cool
not disregarding that
just dont want to open the bag of bullshit worms that comes with people being like "LIGHTFORGED BAD GUY EXPANSION NEXT"
True
looks around
clears throat
LIGHTFORGED BAD GUY XPAC NEXT
UPDATE
you cant still
get in your character
also
did you guys notice that
there isn't much difference between the facial features of the vulpera male and female
They could change it
There’s more room to be creative since they are animals tbh
When ion was like “no alpaca mount” I felt like someone was gonna snipe him tbh
why be creative
WHAT THE
makes way more sense that they don't look too different from each other
like animals
What do you mean why? They can make it do the males have a dominant and distend they deauthorize like most animals?
What? Lmfao all male and female animals have differences besides genitals hello?
dis is what i mean, not much difference between facial faces
Do you know your animals
yes, do you?
those are pretty different
that's enough difference
look at the eyes
do you want something like worgen?`
where the females look like fucking chihuahuas? (not as bad anymore, still awful)
Oh well I thought he or she meant they looked the same calm your tits.
the tufts on the side are different too
🙄
likewise
I assume you're a belf so I sadly cannot stab you, but have vivid dreams about it
No I’m an NE
Who plays a Belf rip
But if I ever went horde I’d have to choose that as a DH

Did they fix the mount animation for their little hyena
dab
why play a fantasy race in a fantasy game when you can be human and human elf pog
The best thing about vulpera is that I can gank them in pvp
Its one that you upgrade
So it's just different recolors?
Ah okay.
ptr borked? Can't get in
anyone else crashing instantly in the vale?
ye
any updates to triggering the sliver of nzoth? Killed tons of players last night, no dice
My edit.
Looks good
has anyone figured out how to do the questline to unlock vulpera/mechagnome? have all requirements but can't see to do them
yeah I know you can just create a character but I want to see the questlines
what if they aren't implemented yet?
is the questline even in? It's listed as "coming soon"
yeah that's what i'm thinking as well
Because you can easily grind through horrific visions
If you didn't notice
The "currency" needed is up all the time
The only thing that changes is the location
Other than that the invasions are up undefinitely
Not really
You get currency from killing things, looting chests
Enough to make one?
It's the same thing of the mage tower
I suppose 10 from a kill and 50 from a chest normally
I suppose yes, yesterday I got into Uldum's invasion and got enough for one vessel
at the original price that is
I aoe, what's the point
yes
yes
I'd say every 2 kills with luck
It's as easy as the mage tower challenge again
that's enough for 2 tries
solo at least
Honestly sounds fun
We aren't counting that you can team up with people
If they don’t gate it some how you’re going to finish everything
"We aren't counting that you can team up with people"
Like
what is the complain here?
I mean, you can complete it in one try if you are lucky
You wanna complete it the day it comes out👀
It's impossible
Eh
no
watch it again
Ion expects us losing a lot at the first attemps
They want you to work towards completing it to have fun lol
Ye
Which is why most of the console upgrades are descending sanity lost
and increasing sanity
like the mage tower?
That’s the best part you’re working to try your best
Make tower if you failed you kept working to kill the stupid boss. I mean mage tower was once a week >_> that counts rng lol
You are comparing a raid, something that is necessary to progress
To a side-thing like the visions
No
Heck atm we don't know the rewards of a full complete vision
No
you don't
You only get orbs
and so far I don't know what to do with them
It would be cool to get cosmetics tho
As a Mythic raider, Horrifying Vision should be in no way comparable raiding.
They are different
There’s progression if you are prepared to do the work
Like if you suck at this game yeah it’s gonna be a hard time
Starting the visions people should be 430-440 anyways
anyone know how to get rid of the Vale crash?
The highest item level gear should always be tied to the hardest level of content. Mythic raiding should always provide the highest level gear.
The Visions reward catch up gear
Lol
Honestly they should get rid of any catch up gear
Make people work for their loot 👀
It doesn't reward the gear itself rewards the items that you use the trade-in for the gear
ye ik
the orbs can be traded in for wrists, gloves, pants and uuuuuuuuuuuuh shoes
but is still a bad idea
Yeah idk why they need a catch up thing
No no
the catch up thing is nice
but why tie it to a hard content like Visions?
be silent
we are tallking about something more important
Well it’s not going to be hard
It is...
they are completely different types of content you fool lmao
I have answered a ton you fool
Different content, different rewards and most important, diferent crowd aim
It’s going to be like difficult for the first few attempts. ONCE you unlock progression check points it gets easier
Why are you so worried about this
It's normal
Catch up gear is for people who haven’t played in a year or 2
It could change tho
They could make it 430 gear tbh
You do visions my guy for the lore
Like that’s exactly what it’s for lore, and legendary cloak
From what I can tell bellular has said that the gear that you can get from trading in for the Visions gear is 420
nothing?
Lore
It’s all lore and legendary cloak to take into the new raid
Like did you not watch the video
Due the sanity buff

“It might be useful in fighting Nzoth”
The Visions feed into the lure of the patch and the greater expansion of itself plus you'll probably be able to trade the stuff in for toys and possibly mounts we don't know but also catch up gear
It’s going to be 100% a must for that raid bet
Probably the best way to explain the Visions is probably like soloing LFR
The only reason to do visions is to progress to the point where you can MOST LIKELY unlock the legendary cloak and lore
yeah and so are essences
So with one of the flask
no?
No you get them from the new raids and chests I thought
boohoo
Did you got feed sand when you were little or what
Go watch the video if you wanna get some info man
...irony


in its most pure expression
Why is this toxic lad still here
(y e s)
Imagine trying to come here complaining about "timegating" on something that doesn't have a timegate per say
Then someone comes in and try to get into the argument
can you quote the name I called you?
it's not a timegate, it's a different type of content
it's a single player orientated progression system like the chromie scenario and withered scenario, latter of which WAS time gated
A time gate MEANS you can not do it after you’ve done it for a week.
You can grind out the tokens
time gate is broken isles.
You can make a extreme grind of it with a team work
Please use big brain
It's not timegating
It's just extremely grindy
Like the rest of the game
Time gate is, in short words, having to wait to a certain date to progress
I mean you can get the moderator, we were just telling you what was right and you’re telling people to fuck off. Seems a bit much. It’s not an argument but a discussion.
This is a discussion of PTR. If you’re info is wrong and the people who are PLAYING PTR know. I just don’t see the issue here. You should t tell people to fuck off. Like.
because you can't understand what is the point we are trying to explain here
what does "fuck off" have to do with ptr?
okay okay okay
all of you stop.
@green laurel you need to be more respectful.
language.
You can read over your own comments 🙂
Really? Do you need to be spoonfed?
How about
you relax
so I can actually read everything
You guys are literally arguing over something that isn't even live yet. Speculate but do so respectfully. I see anyone getting told to "fuck off" again or any other disrespectful language, I won't hesitate to warn you guys.
No.
Alright so anyways for anyone who has played ptr did they implement the cloak yet?
I can tell you that it sucks
the cloak is in but broken kinda
How about, you read what I said above about being respectful for the rest of this conversation?
Everyone needs to calm down. And yes the cloak is in.
the ilvl goes down once you upgrade it atm
Aww
I'm here if you need me Onyx.
dw, he's gone.
well yeah, it is
I’ve been meaning to get on and test out the visions lol I seen some really funny pictures yesterday about the bugs
Looks like it
Praise the lord
all his messages poof'd
only temporarily

That person was making me go crazy
I understand but everyone just needs to remain respectful. It's all opinion based ideas from the PTR
anyways tho no need to stay on that topic after it's been dealt with
No one is stupid or dumb for thinking one way or the other 😃
He has to understand we don't know anything rather than WoWhead or what the game offers atm
Correct
We literally don't know if visions will have a impact outside ketchup gear
Only time will tell
...I don't know if there is an extra thing in the end of the visions
If you guys want to continue the conversation, feel free to do so. Just make sure that you all understand that nothing is solidified as it's PTR. You guys can debate while being respectful. 🤷
well, so far it seems like it has the only cloak outside of m+
If he comes back, holler.
Onyx
I wonder if the cloak will be good for all content tho
but that's the only use I can see visions have
We will letcha know sir. Thank you for helping @rotund sorrel
do you know if the wowhead staff have made a full clear of the visions?
Or will you need to have 1 for mythic + and 1 for raiding
I haven't talked to anyone that has but I can find out @zealous basalt
thank you onyx. on another note, drake form wrathion looks like a cutie with his horn rings
I got 4/5 today 
I don't think it will be useful for m+ either
Because
It has all the stats minus versatility
The rings are awful but funny
some rings are good in some situations
...I have a question about the rings
Can you explain me if
vers sucks bye thanks for coming to my TED talk
Wow I play DH Wymm
i think they're kinda cute. most dragons in their dragon form really really over accessorize on their horns and features but wrathion just has two little rings on his horns and that's enough for him
Is it that way because they are disabled?
no
no
it's to signify the bad side effects
No ^
it's just the negative effect of the ring
I tested two of the rings today
that explains why I keep getting my ass handed
vs the positive effect of the 2% damage/healing
I felt awful and entertained at the same time
Methinks
It’s like green is “you can win a million” and red is “but you can’t walk for the rest of your life” lol
especially the grasping tentacle one was a lot of fun
It should have more power
than just only 2%
oh man we're gonna be getting tentacle grabbed?
Ye
thats exciting
There is another one that makes a copy of you
for high-end raiders it could skew the race horribly in one guild's favor if they get lucky ring drops
And if you don't look at it
like some rings don't impact bosses much, if at all
You get feared
gimme that free 2% healing
What if you go into the other world in mythic +... and the tent pulls you back out
imagine if
Rip
2% would be like a 1k dps increase atm, it's a decent bit
yeah the heal ring is iffy
well the overheal ring is
Imagine “ you get 10% more healing but you can’t interrupt casts”
OH GOD
just when the wielder of the ring gets overhealed

wait
that's just LFG Dungeons
but then again the overheal debuff only stays for 10 seconds and if you don't take damage, it's not awful
and then again
then again you will take damage, and the healers will hate you
No one interupts in LFG dungeons
DHs
LMFAO
but like the aoe taunt ring? No impact at all in pvp
the focus target ring? No impact in patchwerk fights
“You can reset you’re interrupt but you lose 15% damage for the remaining CD”
Omg
No
Your*
and if they gave more than 2% damage increase, it could become ridiculous

ehhh
so I can see why they want to be careful with it
technically as cloth
blizz might still scale the rings up or down
you can get something to reduce interrupt cd on-use
if the interrupt was one of the recently cast spells
but you lose out on secondary stats from the item
mechagon wrists ho
This shit better not be bis for me cuz I refuse
Its not for monks
(I'm talking about the Cloth Bracers from OP: Mechagon)
I will be the worst player
yea Nwolf knows
the killing blow rings (there's two) aren't that impactful for raids either
except for add spam bosses
nah
what does the vulpera character select BG look like?
it's either a 6 second root or a tentacle that grips you after 5 seconds
HOPE
as a healer I could also grab the Mesmerizing ring
ah I see
FUCK
F
Why can’t you login
worst of all
I know what fucked us up
You went to that part with the glowing tentacle, right?=
And then "oof"
i wander why n'zoth is going after the forges tho
I mean I was kinda sad because I wanted to wait another expac to fight him
Crap I need to buy
The essencse again
So, with the heroic test...are we going to be able to buy new gear?
Because I don't think my poor 425 gear will be good
Also I hopped people saved gear to replace benthic gear
Lmfao
That 425 ain’t gonna do nothing in the new raid
it's ok my vulpera is neutral with orgrimmar and if I turn pvp on I can attack the guards
try that
turn on pvp and attack him

nope
sad.
He probably works for Nzoth
for all we know he's one of the guys I killed in the vision of stormwind today
Isn’t Shaw one? I thought I saw him in a vision screenshot
Oh ye
Nice I hope Anduin is one
So to answer your question @zealous basalt, from the guide writer I'm talking to, no one has cleared the visions yet.
Oh damn it
I don't blame it
There are two areas that are very hard
mage quarter and old town+
Okay so
Anyone in Alliance
Wants to do a clear?
...actually im neutral with everyone
you definitely need a group
i cant load my character either
im waiting on purpose to see if it gets fixed
nyalotha raid skybox
Where's that from? The raid right?
yes, its the skybox
Damn. That looks so good.
yeah
just before you try to clear it, make sure you upgrade the cloak to the end and buy a new one to have the ilvl and also the 75% less sanity drain
Is that Nzoths tent?
I didn't know the last part and caused me and my partner to lose the vision, we probably could'Ve cleared it
i assume it is
nope
yeah, the ilvl is bugged
it says 430, then drops to 402 on first upgrade
xd
When I put the maxed out it goes back to 5% on the maxed
