This line needs corrected. Bel’ameth is in Azeroth proper as clearly shown in the end of the 10.2 campaign after Amirdrassil has re-planted in Azeroth from the Dream.

Can’t even fact check their own writers: “The Arms of the Goddess” lies in the heart of the Emerald Dream

My best guess is they meant to write “Heart of Amidrassil, the newly-planted world tree” or something and are just nursing a rough New Year’s hangover still.

Please be those Man’ari options from WoD and Legion…

I’m super curious about the customization achievements. :o

Bracing myself and waiting for whatever the update is going to do to turn the Love is In the Air holiday dungeon fight from a minute-long blaze into a five minute slog :expressionless:

Oh boy more customization for a class, I wonder who got it

Oh it’s just warlock, again

The ones with the fel cracks/corruption and toned muscles. I still consider the ones we got in 10.1.7 to just be cheap recolors, and I’m hoping they eventually cave in and add the original ones they used in WoD and Legion on all the Man’ari NPCs. I’m not even sure how it was easier or more efficient to create these brand new skin colors that nobody asked for, rather than reusing the already existing stuff, which we know Blizzard loves to do.

Hell, the Seeing Red questline even awards a toy that makes your character look JUST LIKE those Man’ari (with bonus Antoran armor). But the actual customizations we got are just two weak skin colors. And the eye colors, but those are satisfactory.

I’m not getting my hopes high, since we do know that there is a Draenei skin color coming in 10.2.5. The one that I’m pretty sure was meant to be added in 10.1.7, but somehow it didn’t make it. That might just be it. But it would be nice if Blizz surprised us.

Pet charms will now stack too 5,000 instead of 1,000…Thank God…when you have over 56,000+ of them they do take up too much room…

Just hold on. It won’t be long before the Mechagnome Skynet gains sentience.
