he found a thing
i dont understand how it works
KD3 from Wowpedia was at tier 6 (exalted) and now he's 1k/16k into tier 5
more wild pets are in
One of the items located in the vault of secrets kept giving rep
Also last build fixed flying in that odd section of korthia
nice
they changed cinders to embers i think?
woah, chest has so much
i got 2 ilvl 200 conduits
vestige now needs 40 korthite
up from what i believe was 4
the intro quest following the scouting reports now gives a TON of great loot - dunno if this was available last week - couldnt get the mawsworn scouting report
also rares are now on thje zone map
there is now an item to get a shard back
you can now buy the socket adding item with soul cinders
oh stygian ember is for buying shards/upgrading them
I finished the intro quest last week
Dropped after a few mobs
Also I'm not a fan of the loot spam with rep commendations
I liked having the item, albeit it sucked not being able to use it outside of the main 4 zones
And damn, 2k gold
2k weekly, 1-2k daily, that's a lot of gold just from your callings and the weekly maw/korthia
Not including whatever scraps korthia dailies give
towering exterminator has abilities!
rares are interesting finally!
yet rares still give venari rep
WHY
regular mobs got abilities too
Probably because she's getting paragon rep
Gotta earn it somehow without going back and clearing old rares in the maw
i think the gromit doesnt work yet
they broke replenish the reservoir - rares and treasures that give anima arent counting
Lol
I am still worried about 4th new covenant tmog set recolor. Still invisible in wardrobe
the shardhide items can randomly upgrade 1 level
nope
wrong upgrade type
it gained 30 speed
oh neat
the discover conduit stuff can give the pvp conduits
just got a conduit i literally didnt have
weird yellow ! from venari
oh - its a weekly (?) that gives 1k venari rep for 800 stygia
text changed slightly - still unclear how often it occurs
So once every 10 mobs, but it has 3 upgrades
im pretty sure its once per run
i think its once per run actually
but it isnt clear
which is what i keep reporting
They would have added a (may only occur once) text, right?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
i keep reporting that its unclear how often it occurs
bout to do a layer 8 skoldus run
I think it might be once every 10 mobs. Or if it's once per run, the number of upgrades means more charges
ill post my score after
Good luck
Neat
its a shit blessing
fuck
these 2 torments suck
50% hp for non-elites
and they get 50% more damage below 30% hp
this is a dead day
Good thing you're a tank, then?
XD
i reported that the two torments shouldnt occur together
b/c the problem is that the dmg one is balanced around base 30% hp
not a 30% that is doubled
not to mention a frankly, worthless blessing
Sorry I'm a smooth brain. I don't understand your funny numbers
lets say a mob has 20k HP
with the 2nd torment, it gains 50% more damage at 6k HP
with the first torment, it now has 30k HP and it gains 50% more damage at 9k HP
so it deals that increased damage for 50% longer
honestly imo the real issue is a 30% damage increase is probably too large
A reference to Krexus
And this sword sounds insane
"Consume a lesser weapon. Destroying it utterly to feed the power of Jaithys (the sword)"
oh
i saw the strings for that
wonder what it does
also i hope it works on junk weapons
I think it specifically does not
NEW SPELL_FAILED_CUSTOM_ERROR_610
That item is puny. Unworthy. Find another.
then its gotta have some kind of payoff
Any signs of a release build? I assume not.
This looks new. Giant spinning ball. Looks awesome
that IS new
was it stationary?
btw anything else i need to test with the sep shoulder mog stuff?
pretty sure the tazavesh skybox got redone
this might be the most logical connection of all of the confusing things i still had questions about
- why did the light attack revendreth
- why didnt maldraxxus help
- why the stone legion exists
- why the nathrezim had nathreza as well
well - the nathrezim models look sick
and im glad theyre distinct from the legion dreadlords
ok - so i guess they were faking legion corruption?
or they can cleanse themselves?
how is malganis not legion-ified
doesnt his new model have furry legs?
dreadlords have always had furry legs, blizz is just inconsistent
this is malganis' OG art from two decades ago now, jesus
the models in legion were just very armored and stylized
can see on the OG models that they had the furry hooves still, so at that time it was kinda like a draenei situation
hmmm
i thought we saw malganis during legion
but apparently not
just tichondrius and a few others
also why do they use shadow magic?
not death magic?
why is he talking about silithus?
are dreadlords doing stuff back on azeroth while we are dealing with the shadowlands?
Solenor the Slayer is a nathrezim appearing in the Black City during [98] The Battle for Broken Shore. Previously, he was summoned in Silithus for an epic quest for hunters. He was in a gnome-form called Nelson the Nice unless you came to bother him with the quest.
He also appears in Sinfall, disguised as Tavian, the innkeeper.
found him
he did stuff in silithus back in the day
The Nathrezim were the ones to take Frostmourne and the Hat of Domination to Azeroth. But who made the portal? 🤔
the fuck?
this is interesting
its unclear who wrote these out
since it isnt malganis
and it cant be denathrius
and i think the master is the jailer
kelthuzad maybe?
Mmmm peachy
I think it might'a been the Jailer
Kel'Thuzad would never call us "Azerothians"
He'd just call us living
Or mortals
he was disguised as a dredger
Kel'Thuzad, the bri'ish clean-up man
Considering the letter reads "Our brother" it can't be Kel'Thuzad
It could be Tychondrius
Or the other one
Still. A dreadlord
Oh my fucking god
I was about to ask "Who's that chick" then I saw Renathal's name
That crown is so bad
its not permanent
he explicitly says that no one can wear it for very long
he crafted it that way on purpose
"I'ma make a crown that will let me be vulnerable so I won't grow power hungry like Denathrius except I might change my mind eventually in this eternal afterlife"
"I should also milk Garrosh once I get my hands on him"
a few hours later " HRRRM! his anima tastes delicious"
"So... Much... Pride..."
I think the writer is likely Tichondrius, he didn't die in Legion and would likely still be considered the leader of their kind
Not sure if this has been asked before but I wonder if there is any extra loot or something when you complete an instance and leave the 4 minibosses up? Or is it just a potential timesave?
I was just thinking if they have said or hinted anything to do something like the yogg fight with the keepers. There is potential for it.
it's more likely Tichondrius yeah. always been described as the leader of the dreadlords. Would make sense that he is the one giving order to free Denathrius.
Question is, where is he? what is he doing? 🤔 Since apparently Denathrius plan after he was " freed " by the dreadlord basically no longer involves revendreth and else, it's becoming worrysome
Temple of Devotion Cutscene | Chains of Domination Patch 9 1
#shadowlands #wow #cutscene
Hello! Got a 9.1 question. Is there any new stuff that uses Anima? Debating if i should hold or spend mine.
i dont think there is,but there is stuff that uses stygia
There's a couple new items for anima unlocked via renown, but they'll be like 8-10 weeks in, at least
so not much point hoarding anima at the moment
didnt they say you could spend stygia as you didnt need it more?
Flying unlocks at renown 44. So, hey, nice
a new currency
relics of korthia
Stygia in 9.1 is mostly used for cosmetics and to buy the account bound catchup gear box
do you only need to buy that box once? And how much stygia?
Korthian relics will be used for season 2 sockets and conduits
1k stygia atm, 1 box equals 1 piece of ilvl 200 gear
But you'll also get the box from a weekly quest in Korthia/maw (fill the bar quest, fill it by doing dailies in Korthia, killing rares and looting treasures or doing tormentors in the maw)
any list of the buyable stygia cosmetics?
too lazy to compile
how easy is korthian relics to collect compared to stygia?
I suppose it gets easier once you get rid of the eye.
for the mythic + buffs wonder if its gona have a situation like the 8.3 affix. we could leave an add alive and quickly deal with it along with the boss. wonder if one of the buffs npcs can be ignored and subsequently also be shrugged off on the final boss
They've already said that if you leave one or more adds alive,they give their buff to the final boss, like permanent buff, its not like the 8.3 one where they spawn at the bosss location
9.2 GIGA MEGA Soul Ash
are there any neet shaman changes i should know for 9.1?
Idk i dont play shaman
rip
The only Shaman changes I see on the Patch Notes are for PvP
World of Warcraft Version 9.1.0 PTR Chains of Domination PTR Notes – Updated June 8 CLASSES Death Knight Anti-Magic Zone duration reduced to 8 seconds (was 10 seconds) and it will now fade when it absorbs 150% of the caster’s health. Blood Damage of all spells and abilities increased by 6%. Demon Hunter Soul Rending (Talent) now in...
yeah there hasn't been much tuning so far
my assumption is that we won't really see any big changes
and after the tier is over (~4 weeks after tier release), we'll see some class tuning changes
no i get that but i wonder if there is one of the buffs that can be viable to just ignore and kill the boss
50% move speed reduction mby? Idk
with enough gap wideners maybe
Probably depends on the boss and add spawn positioning. I can't really see it being that worth it unless they're very out of position and pretty easy to deal with
shrug i guess. just trying to see if we actually get a "choice" not just " gotta kill this 4 or else" kinda situations
I have a question do you kno why this difference? The 1st is the main toon with no skips https://i.imgur.com/ewT32qf.png and this is the alt with skips https://i.imgur.com/aIoxR13.png
on the alt I've done the assault, is that the reward for the assault?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
1k of rep is a lot to miss expecially at the start
the rewards changes weekly, on the main last week I got 500 anima for example
but I can't see the quest on alts.
going there if it trigger an event
Yep the wq starts on main, but idk why not on alts there is a trigger somewhere not aviable if you did skips
think they gona do the 2 week warning or 4 week
I’m pretty sure the skip doesn’t push the campaign ahead
You need to have done the assault on desmotaeron in order to unlock WQs there @vernal juniper
Like - the korthia story quest
They increased the amount of rep required for the Archivist's Codex and they seemed to have removed the Research Report that gave you extra relics and replaced it with a quest that seems to proc once you have collected enough of the random relics found in Korthia
Not sure about the rest of the ranks but rank 5 -> 6 is now 16000 instead of 8500
Yeah earlier ranks were decreased tho @molten pine
Do you have the new numbers? @dense plover
No, but I was previously halfway to tier one and now I’m halfway to 2
My guess is one is unlocked shortly after you get through the unlock questline now
I'll try and figure it out over the weekend
I did the assault on the alt with the "skip", if you mean the ardenweald assault currently up on PTR and not quest.
The alt has the full campain 9.05 done renow 40 and used skips
also, I did the full set of daily in korthia, but I haven't done any quest of the new campain
Tyrande Ritual Cutscene (Updated) | Chains of Domination Patch 9 1
#shadowlands #tyrande #wow
Now with sounds and voice
No I mean the korthia story through to the point where you attack desmotaeron
Lady Moonberry movements are still:
⬇️ ↘️ ➡️ ↩️ ↙️ ⬅️ ↗️ ↖️ ⬆️ ↙️ ➡️ 🔀 ↩️ ⬅️ 🔄
Could it be?
Sadistic Glee - While you are behind your enemies, their movement is impaired, or they are suffering from loss-of-control effects, your attacks have a high chance (Approximately 6 procs per minute) to cause them to bleed for 395 Physical damage over 6 sec.
More of these
Pls
This is kinda why I always found it whimsical while leveling through classic (on retail I don't own classic). Weapons and trinkets had such cool effects that I would've loved to play with
But ya know they're not current content. So I just think they're cool and I kinda want more of thise.
These*
"Positional effects" are not well liked
That's fair
But there is the part where it is also affected by slows or CC
So it may be one of those weapons that are useful for multiple classes thst encourage different play
Idk I just like it because it brings something new to the table
XP
I just want coll effects on my gear and weapons tbh :/ . A lot of the gear is boring now adqys
Common complaint
Bro why are u doing this to me I'm giving 5 line arguments and u replying with 1 basic like thst owns me :(
Not even arguments just explanations:(
I would reply with more words if your arguments were more elaborate or something that hasnt been said for years
I see some people suggeting 29th of June as potential patch day, is that based on anything or could it be august just as well?
God damn you Daf. For being intelligent.
I honestly have nothing extra to say that what I said tbh. It's just so basic to make your gear interesting to me. :/
I believe it's because New world and Ashes have around that week for Release of their Beta and Pre Alpha respectfully.
Thanks, so thats pretty speculative then
yea just don't trust anyone until we get an official date
Yeah

I just want the date so that i know if we can make CE or disband..
Only blizzqrd
ya
being intelligent is pretty pog,
but if you wanted a longer response,look at another game with much worse netcode and servers than wow||(the infamous japanese mmo)||
and other than them having a hardcoded 0.5sec lag no matter your ping,there is 3 classes with positionals,2 of them very lenient,and one super specific positionals,
now,the super specific one,actually does less dmg the higher your ping is,because you wont hit the positionals due to lag and not your own fault. so you NEED a good connection to even play the class decently
Imagine if they try to fuck.over the other MMOS when their's is sarting to get fucked
you can see how positionals are not well liked as a concept
We're killing SLG this ID, but we took FOREVER on that boss, and sire takes even longer
why would you disband if you dont make CE that seems like such a childish reason to disband
The goal of the raid was to make CE
new world from most of the community is deemed as "dead in the water" because of their PR suicide with the cash shop before it even released,and well their track record of 3/4 failed games
Oh I definitely understand why. They're just annoying. But it's interesting for people who may want to do this xP
but i'd assume you made "friends" while raiding with these people everyday,
if the raiding environment was like working an office job,with the goal of getting CE then i can see how the guild is so brittle it disbands immediately after
It's not like we all hate each other after disbanding, we can play other games
but if you acted like "normal" people then you would have bonded over the game,and not getting CE while maybe a big deal,wouldnt be enough to tear the guild apart
It's just that CE was our goal, and if its not attainable we'll just do something else, i think for most people in our group progressing SLG wasnt all that fun, and sire isnt a particular fun fight as well imo
I'm not playing next tier, and its not like we would disband the guild
If sire is fun thats cool
I also liked p2 of SLG, but we are at 350 pulls and its getting boring
Like, disbanding the raid wouldnt be some drama thing, it would just be that people replenish their energy, and those who are playing 9.1 can try again for CE then
You can do it bros. Trust
You have AT least 2 more weeks to get CE
You'll be fine@
we need like 6-7 weeks i'm assuming
as we took 7 weeks for SLG (if we kill it this id, which we should)
From what i understand CE is still attainable like 2 weeks after the patch drops
You'll be good guys. Just don't give
why are you not playing next tier tho
I dont like the committing 2 evenings for raiding, and with corona over my regular schedule is going to be more busy again
well,i can send you a list of games that are really good if you need games to play that arent wow
No. As soon as a new patch drops CE and AOTC are no longer available for the previous tier
covid 19 pretty much made me a neet for nearly a year..
gona be hard getting back into it
still hoping the 4th tint isn't completely removed. It was my favorite recolor on all covenant sets.
this one is so nice i'm goin venthyr on the hunter
Another ptr vendor build
So maybe not today?
Maybe it’s for next weekend or something?
When’s the pvp play with the blues?
It was last week
Lmao

Does anyone know if there are new adventurers/missions/rewards from the adventure table in 9.1?
Dont think anyones tested it
yes
new adventurers are in the renown menu
ive screenshotted the new maw missions
they have a black background and give the new torghast currency
Ah, interesting. Are those mission level 60 adventurers required?
new rewards - other than the torghast currency idk - maybe at higher levels? the korthia missions are level 49 minimum
Thank you - that's useful information to have
Not seen anything special that's a super high level
there are a couple new adventurers via torghast as well as the ones via renown
There is a new mission on the table
Covenant specific
But it's not implemented yet
Basically, in korthia there are 4 special encounters that require a specific covenant
And at the end you loot an item that you turn in to your cov's npc next to the adventure table
And i think it will lead to one of the flying mount recolors
For kyrians it's the forsworn tint
Ah cool, that's interesting
When is the next patch comonnnnnnn
patience
Never ;3
blizzard secretly went bankrupt and are keeping it quiet by keeping up expectations
yeah ik ik just joking lol
How much time is usually between patch announcement and deployment?
.....eh?
Nooo- Begins crying
👀
2 weeks
Thanks, so basically from the day they announce the patch, there will be 2 weeks remaining to get CE?
Yes
Is there any estimated tierlists of classes?
To be fair, the dev team for wow is bankrupt at least. It honestly feels like it sometimes.
Wait till the patch drops. Estimations aren't gonna get you anywhere rn. With all the new gear we don't even know what's BiS for some classes coming in 9.1
the company is not bankrupt,yes,but the company also refuses to invest any more money,than the absolute minimum required to keep the whales spending,so yes,they are bankrupt in a sense
i'd say other companies like EA or ubisoft are much more creatively bankrupt than blizzard
and with the EA hack leaking every EA game's engine source code,the cheater problem is gonna skyrocket incredibly hard
780GB of data were stolen and it's being sold for 28M
Well at least EA now needs to buy the DLC from us now
lmao
blizzard posting random information that weve known for months is at least better than reading wowhead "guides" that were old news 9 months ago lol " DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN USE THE LANTERNS IN SD TO BUFF YOUR TEAM "
" let me show you this skip that nobody uses in relevant content "
need help
@vocal flint dont get me started
wowhead will find a way to post the same thing 3 times for clicks 😦
y'all realise wowhead is a website that has people working fulltime on it
and that they have to pay said people somehow
you never thought of that, did you?
@mossy meteor nice assumption I'll use that excuse for whenever a business does something a lot of people consider bad or annoying. God forbid trying to find other ways of generating revenue or interest
Fuck off lol
what would you recommend then?
hopefully music
music means release soonish
we have minimum 2 weeks once music is in
THAR SHE BLOWS
"9.1.0.38950 → 9.1.0.39015!"
1.17GB
might have music at that size
MUSICS
5 pages worth
so probably a lot of momentary snippets for cutscenes and events
realms are up too
dailies are on the map!
ensemble preview finally works!
It's not flagged as a release candidate though right?
this item from the research guy has a domination socket now!
new icon
no changes to torghast knowledge powers
2h44m of music
excluding 2 encrypted tracks
they probably only drop once
and you dont need to keep them
so this is probably done to encourage you selling them so they dont fill your inventory
dont know if you could before but you can mount in venaris refuge'
you could always do that
even in 9.0 with a maw mount
and yeah the cosmetics drop once but still
that's a hefty price for a cosmetic
esp. considering 9.0 cosmetic items can't be sold
maw assault interactables glow orange now - idk if it helps with visibility or not
dont remember everything being up here on the wall
oooo
more weapons got effects
did domination sockets always give a buff for socketing 3 of certain types?
I don't like that polearm. 😦
like this?
Yeah, Jak was talking about the set bonuses last night
it was like that last build
ah ok
They don't work in m+
were trinket effects in last build?
this is new yeah
the second part
alchemy recipes for fun
cooking recipe
this back + shoulders drops from the spectral bound chest
additional item from korthia missions
yeah - the rares give venari rep
ive been told its so you dont have to grind out old content - which makes sense
but i dislike it
anima treasure nerf finally happened - 5 anima down from 35
but they count for the weekly again
which one
the new campaign obviously
do I need to complete convenant campain too?
probably?
i mean the one is on live servers
Shadowlands All Music 9.1
Korthia Music
Sanctum of Domination Music
Chains of Domination Music
a bunch of enemies got ai and ability changes
yes
we just didnt have the sockets
here's the frost buff
uther's new model
@dense plover they fixed the new sigil of the kyrian quest btw
and talk to kalisthene
kk I will try
Large Nerfs to Storming Mythic+ Affix in Patch 9.1
it seems like a not afflix now.
just let the tank soak them all
whats the nerf?
Storming now travels much slower, making it much easier to dodge for melee players.
Storming now appears to always travel clockwise, making it easier to dodge when there are multiple tornadoes.
Storming now despawns when hit by a single player.
basically, tank soak them all and for the rest it does not exist
https://i.gyazo.com/124a30d5497ac2b409496147d338b805.png hard mode achieve
?
yep we already knew it
you can trigger hard mode but idk if we already know how
it has 2 mounts the dungon
one hard mode exclusive
they added the other one to the last boss drop table this build, in the journal
yeah
I got it from another npc, maybe I was stucked in a different step anyway
it seems bugged, nothing appens in Korthia
the map is spires of ascension :/
Where Dreadlords Dare
Mal'Ganis Cutscene
Shadowlands Cutscenes 9.1
neat
xD
i never understood why they would leave that sword in there with no protection besides " the light that affects only one faction in all of creation "
the light affects all factions, all cosmic forces can hurt each other haha
Im still getting used to the new porter profile pic
its mostly the same color palette 😛
i fricking knew it!
dark anduin music
noice
its associated with some ardenweald themes in its soundkit - so probably part of the initial chains of domination campaign
not sure what this one is
maybe kelthuzad?
just to be transparent, outside of the numbers, these are me naming them
yeah but KT is also part of the tormenters stuff
soundkit existing =/= no music for it tho
like the soundkit might not be done
in another discord weve been piecing that there is probably going to be assault music for each covenant
but it isnt working as of right now
the venthyr assault is supposed to have a cutscene in the finale
oh nvm
which didn't happen
that music is tazavesh
ooh
yeah
i found one of the ashvane tazavesh pieces in the same soundkit
again, my name
well it happens in boralus-ish
this one is the same soundkit - sick af
i wonder if i can find the stormheim tazavesh music
heres another banger
I am uncertain, $n. Once, I was bound only to the Dream. Now I am also tethered to this realm by powers I do not fully comprehend. The Winter Queen gave of her own essence to save me, and I will repay her kindness as best I can. Yet beyond that, I can only wonder when I might return to family in Azeroth... if indeed such a reunion can ever come to pass. <Ysera smiles at you.> But thanks to you, I have hope. Not only have you helped to restore Ardenweald, but you saved my beloved Tyrande from a rage that nearly consumed her. The future may be uncertain, and the Jailer threatens all we hold dear. But whatever comes, I know you will face it with courage.
I devoted myself to overseeing and advising aspirants long, long ago. I was not the only one at first... but as the drought persisted, my peers were needed elsewhere until I was the only one left. My orders were to keep the aspirants training, to bide our time until the drought passed. I was not to tell them that every single soul was sent straight to the Maw, that the Shadowlands had broken down. I told them what I could... but I was alone and had to keep myself calm. For my hard work to be first recognized via my inclusion of the Path of Ascension, and now again as the new Polemarch of Bastion... I recognize no higher honor. Thank you, Maw Walker. And I am sorry we got off on the wrong foot.
that must've been tough to record lol
probably
definitely
its like 3 different parts all syncopated to fill in each other
D Arkenstone, G Kirkhope;
so - that makes sense
i tweeted grant kirkhope
i hope he responds
and another one - this one is in 3/4 for 3 bars, then 2/4 for one bar (pretty sure at least) - this repeats through the whole piece
cant figure out the first one tho
Wowhead uploaded the eye of the jailer cutscene but today's build has it more or less finalized and it even has music
Also, the eye questline gives valajar rep during the skyhold part
And if you're a warrior, the dialog is slightly different
apparently that track id david arkenstone's, not grant's
literally had 2 of the wow music people respond to my tweet XD
dunno if ill get a reply from arkenstone - he hasnt tweeted in a few months
oh this one is really cool, not a lot of game music uses cadence like this
yeah
that first one though is crazy
reminds me a bit of john mackey's foundry in its instrumentation
but its more avant garde in its rhythm
also Im very glad Sylvanas is actually getting boss music, WoW is usually so bad with giving bosses dedicated tracks
it's something they def need to catch up to FFXIV with
idk
we talked about this a bit in #no-wow-discussion earlier today
FFXIV has catchy boss tracks
but as a result you lose out on environmental and theatrical music
music should assist everything else, it should NEVER get in the way
thats the thing, in FFXIV, music queues are built into the mechanics
they are
they use the character leitmotifs as indicators for abilities
but also ffxiv has shitty zone music
because its all just variations on the expac theme
thats fair, but theres a good medium between those 😛
i feel like the occasional boss theme is fine, i just dont think every boss needs a theme
though for sanctum, sylvanas and KT make sense
the best use of music in WoW IMO is Dattle for Dazaralor, because it uses the racial themes as you go through it
im fairly certain theres a naxx-esque kelthuzad theme somewhere in this mess of music
starts off kul tiran for the first half, zandalari for the second, then Jaina's fight culminates in the two together
but WoW has just so much unused music, especially in BfA
Sylvanas had two whole tracks that only ever got officially used on the youtube channel
Cloak models still not implemented, RIP
well, they fixed the kyrian sigil quest, but theres one issue
theres no way to get back to the scenario area lol
cloak models?
cant you just walk out?
all the raid cloaks aside from the quiver currently still use the PH nathria models
nah all the models are in the files already
and the PvP ones use the correct ones
theyre the matching models from the legendaries that never got implemented in 9.0 aside from the cloth one
Nah because the quest requires you to be in the scenario to exit, but its given by Adrestes in the open world
oops
lol, fun mount added to some of the guards
oh nice, they also added music for the band part of Tazavesh, for each individual instrument
@uncut vault same problem, can't complete the quest since it's phased in the scenario
where did you accept the quest?
was it polemarch kalisthene, or normal? Cause she has no dialogue for me
Tbh I switched to Kyrian to progress then switched back to Venthyr ( there is a Tauren NPC that swaps you in oribos )
Wait, they still count as demons?
Shouldn’t they be humanoids or whatever stone born a#re?
@torpid spear you might w#ant to report that as a bug
Some should
But the ones that aren’t legion corrupted should be whatever the stoneborn are
Humanoids apparently
The group we see in Revendreth in particular are Dreadlords with Malganis and the other demonic Dreadlords
They did become demons to infiltrate the nether
The ones in korthia don’t actually count as demons, which is a nice detail
You can use demon Hunter spectral sight to see the ones in Revendreth during the campaign, but not the ones in korthia or torghast
which is still illogical, since Vasjh and KaelThas were trained to find demons, but they can find the non-demonic Dreadlord easily
At the moment Vasjh said she was trained by a demon hunter to find dreadlords, and she find those in Korthia, there is no reason a Demon Hunter can't find those too
probably that 9.2 is equally a ways off as 9.1 was
and that the book probably has some pertinent spoilers
have we any idea when this book content plays? I mean..it could be about sylvanas past
it is, it's detailing her entire life, but seems to have some small bits in the present
the question now seems to be how much
and when are those present bits set, because the initial preview implies it's during 9.0
but the release date in itself even prior to this delay implied it would have some info that relies on 9.1's conclusion
Still shows as releasing on the 9th november on amazon UK
Although the penguinrandomhouse website does list that new date, and they're the ultimate owner of the publisher
It's implied it takes place around the Sylvanas' Choice cinematic
When she debated with Anduin
And ultimately decides to turn him into a puppet that looks just like Arthas
could end up being that thats just the first half or so of the book
Not likely. Most likely your address is in rural place and/or they are experiencing Backed up shipping. I ordered salt free Udon noodles and they would normally arrive in a week but they won't arrive for a full month.
I trust Blizzard. I don't trust Amazon. When Blizzard comes out and says it's being delayed, I'll believe it.
It's changed at https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/538373/sylvanas-world-of-warcraft-by-christie-golden/
and if anyone knows it should be them
because they're the ones who ultimately decide it
@unborn glacier amazon is just a retailer
if they say it's delayed it's delayed
they can't change release dates out of nowhere
in any case
i think the book being delayed is because of blizzcon
This is just. . . why?
All relevance for the book is gone by then.
Hi all, many of you have contacted me re the date change to Feb. 22 for the Sylvanas novel. I'm sure you all can appreciate that a book of this magnitude & significance should be given the dedication it's due, so we're taking the extra time to make sure it's the best it can be!
@unborn glacier

So they are doing some rewrite. Hmm. Makes ya wonder
My guess is they’re rewriting something that isn’t being taken well with people who have read it already, or they’re changing the plot of Shadowlands.
Could be tied into the rumor that there won’t be a 9.3
Probably just the general editing process. It seems unlikely sylvanas will be important to the plot going forward and afaik it's a generally "historical" book anyway and won't cover the shadowlands
Umm, yes it will
It is literally stated in part of its summary that events from Shadowlands are in the book
It basically tells us what happens to Anduin I’m pretty sure.
Does she stab him, or does the jailer?
Misremembered it a bit. What I was really thinking is it doesn't cover anything that hasn't already happened in game, not even really any 9.1 stuff as we already saw the interrogation via the torghast questline
Originally the Novel was supposed to be released after the Blizzcon. Blizzcon was announced to be canceled this year and they will do a Blizzconline 2022 (like this year)
Also most likely in February (this year was 19. feb right ?).
Now the Novel was also delayed, probly will be released 1 day after blizzconline
I expect there will be an event in the new novel that leads to an ingame event in 9.2
Blizzard delayed novels in the past only to make them line up with ingame events
9.3
So you think 9.2 will be released before jan. 2022 ?
Based on how the books preview description is, it could end up that the whole “Sylvanas explains herself to anduin” only tells you to Edge of Night, then she makes the choice to maw-ify him
Then from there, it’s told post-raid more as her regrets on her actions serving the jailer from cata onward
reading the comments on the book delay article in hindsight is quite something
To be honest i expected an announcement on Tuesday
If she comes back as the forsaken racial leader its gonna be really awkward after everything thats happened
But this is better
Sylvanas? Yeah no way after what she did to Saurfang. Nobody is gonna accept her back
oops, sorry, just really excited for 9.1 release date ^^
https://media1.tenor.com/images/d02ad20bf016da9dd397f269f5b33739/tenor.gif?itemid=14572782
i share the same reaction with Tali here too
Im just worried about how theyre gonna handle the horde leadership bc historically blizzard has not been kind to the horde
They've handled it pretty well. Sylvanas isn't even a part of the leadership anymore and Thrall has returned to his roots and has rejoined the Horde
i think people are moreso worried about what will happen post 9.1
Thats what I'm talking about. I don't see them just making Sylvanas warchief again. The whole point of the Horde War Campaign was to bring the Horde back to its roots. They're not just going to throw that out the window
Finally
i think we will release her "good side" and put this fish soulssplit into ardenwaeld and inprissoned/damm the bansheequeen for eternity of Tournment into the maw
I actually agree since her soul would be whole again and not split
Her soul will probably be reunited in death, but she'll still be dead.
Yup
June 29th makes sense
I was right about 2 weeks post-music
Also yes I think 9.2 will release around November at the latest. I think this will probably be the longest time between patches this expac (not including time between 9.3 and 10.0)
Maybe early dec for 9.3
That’s a 6 month gap
They said they plan to have a standard patch cycle
“Standard patch cycle” waits 9 months for first major patch
6 months between a patch is okay to me idk
7 months
How is it 9 months lmao
It’s only slightly longer than the standard 6 months
"close enough"
The standard is literally 5-6
Only 2 off
This is 1 month late, which is impressive and makes sense given the initial expac delay
I expect our patch cycle to return to normal after this
Hopefully
Especially as California state has fully opened up
Average is probably closer to 4-5, although several of those were very light. This is going to be about 7.5
Expect 9.2 ptr in late August, after the raid ends in lfr
And they're probably going to be working in the offices soon
Nah - they might have some people in the office but I bet outside of console stuff, some stuff probably is more efficient at work from home
The big stuff is probably voice recording and audio and music recording
Getting that with full staff in studio is gonna be a huge help
It’s likely why the music took as long as it did
But yeah, I expect 9.2 to go on ptr the week after the last lfr wing goes live in august
That’s usually how that works
September sometime, that the music was added on beta
Environment art is another big one, you can't really start doing quests or raid encounter design without it
In Battle of Ardenweald you're forced to attack Sylvanas. If you're a loyalist, her next dialogue is:
**"You were loyal once, you know what I can do, don't try it" **
so why am I forced to attack her just to point that out? Thats an intentional slap in the face from Blizzard man
Because the story has to move on
there's like a 20s debuff, you can wait it out
She betrayed you
Because it’s assumed at this point you aren’t loyal anymore
Because yeah she betrayed you
This isn’t a single player game - there have to be some story assumptions for continuities sake
why did they point that out as if i'm the one thats breaking the bond, its forced narrative shifting
It is
Because they have to
They can’t have you do a raid to fight her and be like “but I’m a loyalist”
They can’t just tell 20 different versions of the story
And they need to be able to tell the same story to everyone
Again - MMO not single player
Its a weak line to drop, they invented a choice to make it have zero meaning later
lol thats not what they were thinking in BFA
I know its BFA lore, but what you're saying is nothing matters over the course of lore. thats not true
loyalist was a weak paper thin story to appease people when it never had legs.
Now they just dropped a line to just say, remember this? yeah we're not doing it anymore just wanted to remind you
No, they said no wod 2.0. That means no scraped raid tier. That doesn't mean having a 9.3
I hope they have a 9.3
Because it'd feel horrible to have another 2 patch expac I feel
Now, a new hope for 9.1.5 customization has risen
I wonder what the release candidate build will bring
How so?
Just hoping they decided to listen to the community and reverse the decision to cancel the customization
The x.x.5 patches would be good for this stuff
Would be neat
How? They confirmed at blizzconline there will be zero further new customizations this xpac
Need new customisations for allied races since they barely have any
Well let’s hope they go back on what they said
Or did you miss that massive uproar
I know what they said. Wouldn't be the first time they decided something again
Let me dream@
😃
With the backlash they got i wouldn’t be surprised if they do bring out some new customisations at some point, but also wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t
We can dream tho 
I wouldn't hold my breath with this current team. They se too hell bent on ridiculous systems rather than a K.I.S.S system and far more evergreen content.
Bring back glyphs ez
I will be able to wait for AR Customization for next expansion, if they ignore it then, too, they should get ready for even more forum rage. Especially from NB players
Nightborne Players exist?
Don't think its about what we think and moreso what they have time to do
9.1.5 will likely bring heritage armor
At this rate I wouldn't hold your breathe for more Heritage armor, honestly.
It's always released in the x.x.5 patches
None in 9.0.5
Well 9.0.5 wasn't intended to happen
^ we haven’t had an X.0.5 patch before
is there something about hiding a shoulder pad in this patch ?, has it finally been implemented?
yep
Hiding,i think you could already hide them,you mean mog separate shoulders
That too is in
thansk for answer ^^
"What do you mean my hair is shorter due to the lack of ponytail?"

Like you don't know. This is spoilers. lol
Anduin is not a death knight
He's mind controlled 2.5 by the Jailer
Someone at Blizzard said Anduin will forever be changed by this event, and my speculation is that he's gonna have some heavy PTSD and have violent outbursts due to flashbacks
I think he's gonna remain like this, with these death knight powers, understand sylvanas a lot more and be freed from the jailer
Either way, suffer well. 
i bet he finally begins using the void magic he can use instead of ignoring it
Anduins archetype is fine, blizz just doesn't really challenge it anymore
he worked so well in MoP because characters like Wrathion and Varian actually challenged his ideals in a way that wasnt just "muahaha, Im the villain!"
BfA kinda just had his goodness convince everyone but the villains to his side instantly
i didn´t feel anduin challenged back then, most often varian simply agree to anduins lectures...
by the time MoP patch content rolled around he mostly did, but it took a long while to get there from Cata haha
Varian did not always agree with his son I feel
Most times he simply dismissed his son's calls for peace, saying that he doesn't know enough I feel.
This is your daily reminder to say Fuck Sylvanas
As in, the rude way, not the verb
Well that's fucked. Guess he can't catch a break
Yea
PTSD anduin
Blizz could also just end up making that big Anduin change just be his hair color. Goth Anduin 4 life

is that tyrande? I guess a sneak peak at one of the battle of ardenweald cinematics
it does look like her
The bit after of lord herne is in the release date trailer, but the bit with tyrande isn't
It's on the EU site in general, https://bnetcmsus-a.akamaihd.net/cms/template_resource/FS9UN6CCBQC91623947237042.mp4 is the direct link to the video it plays
Holy shit o_o What the hell happened to her?
Is she turning in to a constellation?
she stole the nightborne customisations, they were underwhelming because of her, all along
Dammit Tyrande! How dare you xD
😂
where is the best character, || nathanos||king ?
I love how it specifically points out the Sepulcher of Knowledge is not THE Sepulcher. Putting to rest all the arguments this channel had over what the heck the sepulcher was back in beta. As for the seventh cosmological force, I think the First Ones would make sense. It's also been suggested that Domination Magic is it's own independent force as well.
probably tied to some anima sucking device in the middle of somewere in the maw.
either that or sylvanas literally wearing him as a gstring or w.e
Domination Magic was invented by the primus and used by the jailor, its not a source of their own
Thats not exactly true. It's a form of magic that only the Primus was gifted knowledge of. Hence the whole "Secrets the First Ones sought to hide" in regards to Frostmourne and the Helm of Domination. So no, he didn't make it. He's just the only Eternal One who understands it.
I don't think Frostmourne is the secret the First Ones were trying to hide.
Runecarver Jailer Memory Cutscene
#Shadowlands #Runecarver #Jailer #Cutscene #Cinematic
That's literally what the Jailer calls it in this cutscene. Though it could be interpreted that he's referring to the blade's capability to harvest sigils and open the sepulcher. Still, the Primus was simply only gifted knowledge of Domination magic. He didn't make it. But yeah anyways the seventh branch of the cosmology is probably just the First Ones.
Sounds hot. I approve
Goth Manduin 🥵
FUCK THAT'S SEXY
spooky anduin theme
lets go!
Did we know the Hall of Fame title
Does the hall of fame title count as big
whats the title?
“Famed bane of the banshee queen” that’s a cool ass title
Doubt I’ll ever get a CE soon tho, can always dream
dont let your dreams become memes
Now there's a pretty meme. Exquisite
gdi, release build and they still never fixed the cloaks lol
guess we're going with no cloaks this tier lol
Who needs cloaks when you have the Dark Ranger's Quiver?
Who needs cloaks when you know they all clip through goddamn everything?
But at least they have keyframed motion instead of being physics based
So that's a plus
Same with tabards
I wish Blizzard showed some love to tabards
Guild tabards especially. They have such old textures, and there's no reason for it
when every ranger character in the game uses both a cloak and a quiver, the quiver on its own looks kinda dumb 😛
shhhhhh no logic allowed
Im hoping they eventually implement a similar cosmetic system to the new shoulder stuff
and allow 2d cloaks and the newer 3d back pieces to be mogged separately
Or they could improve on systems that they already have that are old and busted?
I'm talking about tabard shapes, more asymmetrical gear, maybe some chest pieces that cover one side but not the other
They have to stop painting on the character models eventually, right?
Most gear is just "Okay so I'll draw on this side and then mirror it"
what I just said is an improvement on the existing system 😛
It's basically just asking for double cloaks?
yes, asking blizzard to allow for more uses of the existing items, and allow for more asymmetry in gloves, boots, have the ability to wear glasses and another helmet, etc.
the tech introduced in 9.1 for shoulders could allow for all of that now
I doubt Blizzard will allow that level of expression
"What do you mean combining seven tier sets to make something unique isn't enough, even though they don't match in theme and colour all that well?"
hence hope haha
Sure, a dye system in WoW defeats the purpose of high difficulty raids. Then just add more cosmetic gear in the game
The Darkmoon Faire sets were a good start. Why did they stop making cosmetics?
"Let's lock this cool gear behind a stupid paywall instead of actual gameplay!!"
The cloak models might be encrypted @uncut vault
That would explain why it hasn’t been fixed and why they appear invisible
I dunno why only four of the colors would be encrypted though haha
the PvP ones did get implemented
<@&299347348847329281> same guy spamming same stuff different channel
dude this id old
Yet it has no relation
look at the time stamp
posting something and then blaming people reaction to it being out of place
compare the time stamps and go from there
What does time stamp gotta do with a new update
again compare the time stamps
you clearly only did this to stir shit
waiting for a response on the channels
so shut yer trap or that one remaining brain cell might escape as well
kuroro#6148 was muted | continued off-topic conversations
thanks
which source do the still missing cloaks have? as in, raid drop, renown recolor etc
its all the raid, the items exist, they just never got the proper appearances assigned, so they arent a parto f the sets
PvP is fine (though the elite set also has the issue of the cloak not being a part of the set)
korthia daily offering relic stuff
gromit works now!
OH
everytime you rank up with the reliquary, more relics become available to discover
gromit is an amazing investment
got me a korthite
relic fragment mobs glow purple when you have the eye thing
actually allows for targetted grinding of the currency/rep
god - those weekly caches from the korthia weekly fucking rock
a warchest containing; 2 ilvl 200 conduits, an ilvl 207 (2/6) upgradable weapon, a korthite, 150x5 relic research stuff, 2k gold, AND outside the cache, 500 rep with each base faction, 10 stygian ember, 2 250 anima items, and i happened to luck into a legendary power for my covenant
