Quest: Red Dawn

First paragraph:

We’ve come so close to recovering our powers… should Razageth succeed before our powers return timeways bend to a dark future for all of Azeroth.

Raszageth is misspelled. Additionally, the paragraph reads like a run-on sentence. I suggest the following instead:

We’ve come so close to recovering our powers… Should Raszageth succeed before our powers return, the timeways will bend to a dark future for all of Azeroth.

–

Quest completion text:

Razageth and her allies must be stopped!

Again, Raszageth’s name is misspelled.

Quest: Savory Seas

After accepting the quest, there is a brief conversation between Rumiastrasza and Chef Coldgale. This is what caught my eye:

Rumiastrasza says: They are a truly incredible and resilient people with a deeper respect for the seas that any others […]

It should be “than”.

One of the Jaw options on the Renewed Proto-Drake in its Rostrum customizations says THINK SPINED. It should be THICK SPINED.

UPDATE: THIS HAS NOW BEEN CORRECTED IN GAME.
Spoke too soon, still seeing it pop up at times on different characters.

The tooltip for Lightning Shield could be slightly rewritten to make it a bit clearer that you’re the one generating the maelstrom, not your attackers.

Currently reads: “Melee attackers have a 100% chance to suffer X Nature damage and have a 100% chance to generate Y Maelstrom.”

Maybe change it to something like: “Melee attackers have a 100% chance to suffer X Nature damage and cause you to generate Y Maelstrom.”

The quest text for “Waste Water Cleanup” in Azure Span reads:

But with the elementals running amok around here has made it very difficult […]

It should read either:

But the elementals running amok around here have made it very difficult […]

or

But with the elementals running amok around here, it has been very difficult […]

Either option is fine, but the quest is currently trying to do both at once which isn’t grammatical.

The quest “To Rhonin’s Shield” includes the text “…make your way to the Rhonin’s Shield.”

The word ‘the’ should be deleted here, reading simply “…make your way to Rhonin’s Shield.”

Not exactly a typo in text, but an error of NPC type: Erugosa (ID 185556), in The Roasted Ram in Valdrakken, has the naming conventions of a blue dragon, has blue eyes with the dragonkin/dracthyr cross, and uses a greeting of “Our flight has much to offer.” These facts indicate she is indeed a dragon, but she is classified as humanoid, not dragonkin.

NPC: Hemet Nesingwary
ID#: 191205

While riding with Hemet on his wagon in the Azure Span, he’ll make some small talk. One of these conversations is about his son, and this is where the typo can be found.

Hemet Nesingwary says: After his mum his passed, I got lost in the hunt and we drifted apart for… too long.

There is an extra “his” where there shouldn’t be.

In South Hold Gate, Thaldraszus, there is a campfire object at 39.2, 82.5 that has an exposed object name (i.e. it hasn’t been replaced with a sanitized user-facing name). The name of the object is “10DG_Dragon_Campfire_Cauldron01”.

Edit: Actually, there are several of these around the South Hold Gate area. The object at the above coordinates is just one example.

The quest “Haven’t Got Time For the Pain” has progress text that reads:

Were you able to find the[sic] them?

The completion text for this quest should also be changed - specifically, a comma should be moved. It currently reads:

Thank you, for recovering all that valuable equipment [class].

It would be better if it read:

Thank you for recovering all that valuable equipment, [class].

Editing to add another issue here as I’ve now commented three times in a row and can’t add another comment :slight_smile:

The quest “Time is Running Out” is written a bit shoddily overall. There are several possible ways to fix it up, but I’ll just provide my suggestion for a minimal rewrite here.

Current text:

With the bronze temple under attack temporal energy is seeping out everywhere. The Timewalkers placed collectors all through this forest trying to gather all the errant magic. Anything collected can also be used as extra power! Which is a good thing, this crisis is draining all our resources. I was supposed to retrieve the collectors, but I still need a moment to catch my breath. Could you get them for me?

Rewrite:

With the bronze temple under attack, [comma added] temporal energy is seeping out everywhere. The Timewalkers placed collectors all throughout this forest in an effort to gather all the errant magic. Anything collected can also be used as extra power! Which is a good thing, as this crisis is draining all our resources. I was supposed to retrieve the collectors, but I still need a moment to catch my breath. Could you get them for me?

There is also a spurious “extra” in the completion text, but that has been mentioned above.

When speaking to Chromie (ID 186711) at the Temporal Conflux, there’s an issue in one of the gossip options. When asked about the Bronze Oathstone, she says it symbolizes the true calling “of bronze flight” (should be “of the bronze flight”).

There are too many instances of this to catalogue, but a thorough review should be done of the capitalizations of various groups/titles. For example, when referring to the Infinite dragons, I’ve seen “Infinite” both capitalized and not - same goes for some of the primary dragonflight colors. I’m not sure what the preferred style is, but I can at least state that it’s not being applied consistently.

Similarly, I’ve seen consistency issues with transcriptions of trolls’ speech. Again, I’m sure there’s an internal style guide somewhere for troll speech, and I don’t know what it specifies, but there are quite a few inconsistencies. For example, Zon’Wogi in Azure Span says both “them” and “dem” at various points in his dialogue. He also says “ma” for “my” which conflicts with some other trolls (like Historian Jum’Flitmo who says “me”).

During the quest Chromie Time, when visiting the Black Empire, Chromie has an emote that says

Chromie Huffs

which should say

Chromie huffs.

NPC name: Segallia
Zone: Thaldraszus

Her default flavor dialogue says “That being said, the Professor is certainly one-off-a-kind.”

“off” should be “of”, but it also doesn’t need to be hyphenated as it is not being used before a noun.
