how does it feel good tho if its all ujst a cliffhanger

simple patrol
#

but, i kinda liked it, for a moment he looked like he had depth instead of evil guy 101

glass flicker
#

I'm going to assume, against all evidence, that this expansion actually had a purpose in the grand scheme of WoW's writing team's brains.

crimson jasper
#

Also, how is this THE FINALE OF THE FIRST BOOK if its ending is literally another cliffhanger

strange falcon
#

Its a massive bait for simps to preorder next expac like ravenous beasts

Selfie cam patch was better than Shadowlands

The absolute best move at this moment is wait until 10.1, then decide if to get sub.

#

speaking of which

#

what's the hate behind store mounts? I mean, beside them milking the payers, I mean players, for every cent

uncut lintel
#

most ppl hate that they put more effort into the store mounts than the ones in the game which is obvious
annd ppl hate paying for stuff like that when they already pay for a sub and xpac release

Now, however will the happy friends return to Azeroth, with the sky closed above Icecrown? Do you reckon they'll just use the Oribos portal we use?

#

"Yes, we could have used the portal and returned home anytime, but why would we have done so, and possibly gotten more reinforcements as well?"

crimson jasper
#

they use the DK portals yea

#

they better, l dont wanna spend a patch gathering shit to "go home"

#

It's simply not having a reason to care about the Jailer. If he only cared about resetting the Shadowlands, and not using Azeroth to do it, we wouldn't even have bothered to follow Sylvanas.

#

Maybe to save our friends.

crimson jasper

there's no reason to care about any chara anymore

And yes, only the Shadowlands, not the entire cosmos.

#

Why are quests so fun while leveling and tedious at max level?

deep pawn
#

Cause they spend time on levelling

#

Quests at max are secondary to the raid

glass flicker
#

But raid quests can be implemented.

#

Remember Firelands?

#

The Burning Front quests are still memorable to this day.

sonic flame
#

hey, just here for a question

#

I have watched SL end cinematic, was only wondering about one thing ( I didn't play through SL I have just watched cinematics )

#

lorewise what happens so that we are able to match the strength of the jailer at full power, given that at the start of the xpac he was so much stronger than us that even weakened and bare handed he could cancel out the holy light of anduin

lean yew
#

its in this weeks campaign

#

We learn to resist domination magic

sonic flame
#

so apart from the domination magic he isn't powerful?

#

and how do we resist domination magic? i know we reforce the shattered helm into the crown of wills ( or something like that ) but only 1 person can wear it

lean yew
#

you dont need to wear it

#

just like you can dominate someone with the helm of domination despite them not wearing it

#

the crown of wills is similar

#

You use the crown to give people protection

#

and the jailer is strong, but domination is the main reason hes so strong

#

Weve also gotten stronger w/ the covenants help

tepid fiber
#

And by strengthening the covenants, and uniting the covenants, and by numerous other advantages we've taken along the way

lean yew
#

I wonder if the thing the jailer is talking about, the "what is to come" is the 7th force

#

that farim mentions in his research

#

I thought initially that the 7th force was the first ones but im not as sure

#

either way I hope the next xpac doesn't deal with it

tepid fiber
#

Could be, unless he's got some kind of dead man's switch scorched earth protocol in the mix

tepid fiber
lean yew
#

i want azshara back

#

give her, her own xpac

glass flicker
#

I've been thinking a lot about the Dragon Isles idea.

#

Maybe with Ysera's daughter who is now leading the Green Dragonflight, looking for Wrathion for his research on the Isles' whereabouts and we help her and Wrathion reach it.

#

And we find Naga trying to live there peacefully with Azshara leading them.

i'm not negative daniel, i'm being a realist, and so far, reality has proven i have good reason to be negative

strange falcon
# cunning fossil I want 10.0 to do small shit

you not gonna be happy when they do a "even bigger cosmic bad guy" like the jailer heavily implies in the cinematic, and the expac reveal is conveniently on the same day as the last lfr wing opening

#

Who are we kidding? Danuser will just make Sylvanas the crux of the new expansion again.

#

It happened twice already.

It's 100% gonna be Azerothian

#

Revamp Northrend, have us deal with housekeeping there. Crown of Wills? Yeah, have someone put that on their head.

strange falcon
#

10.0 being described by devs as "danuser's baby" is more an ominous statement than a hype-generator

strange falcon
#

i like hearthstone as a super duper casual game, cba doing any more than that, they really do way too many shop items for battlegrounds and in general

glass flicker
#

The WoW community could probably write a better story than Danuser with a handful of french fries. But let's see what he comes up with.

sonic flame
#

so I'm listening to a asmongold video, he is counting the lore stuff that they undermined in order to build up the jailer, and curiously to me he mentions the burning legion

#

what's the relationship between the burning legion and the jailer?

#

the only thing I can think of is that sylvanas was already working for the jailer during the legion xpac, so possibly he planned to benefit from the burning legion to gather souls of the falled ones

#

but nothing beyond that

#

am I missing something here? did the jailer and sargeras know each other?

cunning fossil
#

So by proxy

#

The jailer is the one who started the Burning Crusade

sonic flame
#

from what do we know that the dreadlords convinced sargeras to create the burning legion? What I know ( which may not be correct ) is that sargeras was sorta like the war titan, and he fought obscure forces, then understood that the fight was unwinnable and it would have been better to just wipe off the life from azeroth by himself

#

thus creating the burning legion

glass flicker
#

And the Dreadlords gave Kil'jaiden Animations the Helm of Domination, who put it on Ner'zhul.

#

Thus creating the Lich King.

tepid fiber
cunning fossil
glass flicker
#

What I don't really understand is why the Lich King, and thus the Jailer wanted to destroy the Legion when they created it.

tepid fiber
#

@sonic flame You can find the answers to a lot of this on Wowpedia or IN Nobbel87 videos

tepid fiber
#

It was to the point where they sent dreadlords to make sure he stayed on task

#

While the Jailer is responsible for the creation of the Lich King, obviously not all of his plans go 1:1 scale

cunning fossil
#

I like to think the Jailer was an opportunist but he paints himself as some sort of gigamind chad

tepid fiber
#

You're not getting it

cunning fossil
#

What am I not getting?

tepid fiber
#

Even if he made the plan or took opportunity and something happened along the way that he didn't anticipate or prepare for, he's not going to announce it to everyone. He's going to say "Just as planned!" for the sake of optics and to still look like he's in control

#

That's basic intimidation

cunning fossil
#

I know that

glass flicker
#

It makes him seem like he plays 5D Chess and we're not even pawns in the game, just bystanders.

tepid fiber
#

He's not going to act like anything was unplanned or improvised

cunning fossil
#

Why would anyone who wants to dominate others not look/sound intimidating

tepid fiber
#

Period

glass flicker
#

Lame story. Change it.

cunning fossil
#

I never said that's how he should've presented himself

tepid fiber
#

What

cunning fossil
#

I am saying that thinking if that's how he actually operated is WAY more interesting.

glass flicker
#

And he never said anything about Azeroth, but goes "DEATH CLAIMS THE SOUL OF ZA WARUDO"

cunning fossil
#

Like, the opportunist is more interesting than the mastermind in this sense

subtle oar
#

The reality is, this isn't the Jailer pretending to be a 69d chess genius gigachad. It's blizz literally trying to tell us he is but also failing to do so at the same time because the current writing team is straight delusional.

If that's really what they are, fighters/defenders, that could be a small reference to the Toa, maybe, but I am not sure.

As for Demotivated, the Toa are elemental defenders from Bionicle, that protect the matorans, little builders from a biomemachanic robot.

Someone summed up WoW in 23 minutes.

It was not really a summary.. more a video about "how can I explain this"

As Elder Scrolls can be pretty complicated about the world, cosmos, the fact that it's a dream but you can know this and just disappear, etc etc..

How much time do you think a Bionicle summary would take?

Beware of the High Ground.

#

So, I've had this thought for a while:
Daily Quests having a story focus. What if, for example, we would quest with NPCs and learn about the zone in specific areas of the map, and be told to fuck off to the next NPC in the other area of the map the next day? I think it would be kind of neat.

#

Repeatable quests could be more like culling threats and gathering information/items, rather than "Kill this NPC, yes, the very same miniboss, for the third day in a row."

#

Dailies could have a story focus, not only be a daily chore.

upper pasture
#

i mean we already have gathering quests tho

glass flicker
#

Got that right. But why gather the same thing over and over again?

upper pasture
#

but then that's just a simple fix of creating more dailies to have on rotation

#

its not a "new type" of quest its just a different item you're picking up

glass flicker
#

It's not a daily quests fix, it's a story fix.

#

I'm just saying daily quests could add to the story, too.

upper pasture
#

everything adds to the story even if its a little bit or a huge bit. idk sometimes you need to go blow up malfunctioning proto chickens

#

i get what you're saying i would like more diversity to dailies and have them be more prominent but its been a tough year for everything going on at blizzard so hopefully the next questing chains in 10.0 will be better

talent trees feel good even if theyre temporary

Soulbinds were supposed to be that but minus a couple they never felt impactful

they were too simple

the thing with artifacts is there were big nodes that gave you new stuff

soulbinds only had one, maybe two of those

I dont believe that's true, I've seen games where there is a huge amount of viable build variety

#

The wow team just suck at it

plain violet
#

I must admit by my own experience in MMORPG that players have a tendancy to ask for the "strongest" class, and to take the most optimal choice for every situation... And "builds" pages for MMO are rather that, a "what you should play".

#

In some way of education, players can associate "optimal" with "viable" because the less difficulties they encounter the better it would be.

Bad player on a good spec worse than a good player on a bad spec

So what's the odds 9.2.5 adds 80 renown catch up

At least let double renown work until 60 rather than just 5. I would love having it barely be a thought to get a full conduit tree.

Season 4 mythic is gonna be so refreshing. Thatโ€™s a huge change

strange falcon
#

I mean, if they had absolutely 0 content for a full year, id be concerned the more hardened copiumers would run out of their precious drug

#

Can't have that

#

Imagine being shadowlands though,
Launch --> 8month content drought --> 9.1 --> 8month content drought --> full year content drought--> 10.0

upper pasture
#

I see it less as a โ€œweโ€™re out of contentโ€ and more of a โ€œyou guys have been asking for these things and when is a better time then the end of an expansionโ€

deep pawn
#

eh, it's a bit of both

#

this basically confirms no 10.0 until like February

#

But at least they're doing SOMETHING

upper pasture
#

Canโ€™t say that SLs has been all sunshine and rainbows but weโ€™ve been asking for rotational mythic+ dungeons for like ever

strange falcon
#

They wouldn't put work into doing this new system and retooling old dungeons if they had something for 2022

deep pawn
#

So are y'all reading this as season 4 will have a 16 key pool, or are they dropping the SL dungeons besides Taz

upper pasture
#

I mean different departments do different things

#

Just 8

strange falcon
#

16key pool would be logical, but blizzard doesn't work by conventional logic

deep pawn
#

People apparently think they're just adding 6 keys but change up read to me as replacing

strange falcon
#

If they remove the SL dungeons, and your BiS trinket is from SL dungeons

#

People will be mad

#

๐Ÿ˜‚

deep pawn
#

eh, but you may have ilvl relevant gear from Nathria

#

So we all know one key will be Grimrail Depot.

upper pasture
#

Thereโ€™s no point of saying tavesh if sl dungeons are already included

#

Would be redundant

strange falcon
#

I think throwing the current expac dungeons in the trashbin for m+ is not exactly a good move, having 16key pool would have been more intuitive.

But i dont get paid for gamedesign so who knows

upper pasture
strange falcon
#

I still remember people having the nighthold trinket(even LFR ilvl) as BiS in argus, so thats not always the case

#

Convergence of fates for warriors i think

upper pasture

I mean i agree itโ€™s odd to throw away 6 dungeons but youโ€™ve already seen these dungeons for nearly 2 years. I think theyโ€™re going with refreshing the pool rather than having people run the same stuff again

OMG!!!

Weโ€™re excited to announce that weโ€™re going to shake things up in Mythic+ and raiding in Season 4. Weโ€™d like to change up the Mythic+ dungeon pool so that it would include 8 dungeons that span the last four expansions of WoW:

this def. sounds like scrapping current SL dungeons

well 'scrapping'

#

@deep pawn your idea

strange falcon
mossy meteor
#

possible affix?

deep pawn

#

Meh, if this carries through to the next expansion I could see it being (season 1 10.0 dungeons, season 2 patch 10.1 dungeon plus 6 like we see here, season 3 10.2 dungeons and a different set of 6) that is assuming we get two dungeons and or a mega dungeon but you get the point keeps itโ€™s different and not the same for 2 years how is this a bad change

mossy meteor
#

i think they're still figuring out what they'll do

#

i think having too many dungeons is not great

upper pasture
#

Also imagine the chaos of LFR affixes ๐Ÿ˜‚

strange falcon
#

I personally dont see the harm in having current + old dungeons, but im not even an armchair developer, surely their massive gigabrains know some pitfall i dont

#

Or so one would think

upper pasture
#

Probably just balancing and keeping gear in-check if they had all the dungeons queued up for mythic

#

I would imagine that would be a headache to balance say 8 dungeons for each expansion for the past 10 expansions and have to consider how each thing plays with each class/spec every season

you can send stuff like ore cross-faction on the PTR

He rejected the title because it wasn't the real Medivh, but Medivh still calls him the Guardian at the end of Karazhan.

but that'll be "current" time though

#

He rejected the powers man

glass flicker
#

Doesn't mean he's not the Guardian, though?

subtle oar
#

He doesnt have the powers, which was your theory

glass flicker
#

I mean, isn't he powerful enough anyway?

#

Khadgar is the only mage we see use all three specs.

subtle oar
#

Uh no?

glass flicker
#

Yeah, k.

#

Jaina does too my dude. None of the npcs in game are bound by the players gameplay limitations

glass flicker
#

But they are characterized by the way they fight.

subtle oar
#

no

glass flicker
#

Jaina, the Frost Mage.
Kael'thas, the Fire Mage, etc.

#

You can't tell me Turalyon isn't a ret paladin.

subtle oar
#

Hes not. He's a PALADIN

#

Fine, have it your way. I'll believe it when I see him throw a shield or heal people.

#

So far I've seen wings and a 2H sword.

subtle oar
#

Blizzard has outright said this about NPCs and you've been told this by others in this Discord before.

Blizz > Head canon

#

Again, characterized by the way they fight, more than their class.

subtle oar
#

No

glass flicker
#

We know Jaina is capable of using fireballs, she does it in two instances. Does she like to? No.

subtle oar
#

They are characterized as "Mage, Paladin, Warrior," etc

#

A lot of the time, they aren't even bound to a single "class"

#

Like Lilian or Voljin

#

Alleria is an excellent example, too.

#

She's like a hunter/shadow priest.

#

And even Alleria can be said to be a marksmanship hunter.

#

No pet, no melee weapons.

subtle oar
#

Nah. Whatever she is, is def not a shadow priest. Its something vastly different and more powerful

glass flicker
#

Who knows, maybe Alleria's voidmode is tied directly to the Naaru she absorbed.

#

Making her basically Naaru+

#

But then again, we hadn't seen her use it since Legion.

#

Huh.. Sylvanas' judgement got datamined.. Interesting

#

I suppose I'm fine with what they are doing. Probably the best ending anyone who isn't in love with her could ask for.

#

voice lines are jumbled but what's there is hmmm....interesting

#

I feel like looking it up, but it also happens today.

#

Maybe I'll spoil myself to it.

ancient jasper
#

Nah it happens next week

glass flicker
#

Oh, shit.

Spoil it is.
