I’ve been playing since wrath and i still don’t understand what’s going on. Wonder how the plot diagram would look like.

I mean, you say that’s typical, but I don’t think they’ve ever done that before. Much more usually it’s “we need power to ‘help’ you defeat the final boss of the expansion, which we will then conveniently forget about as soon as the next expansion starts”.

I thought taking all the Azeroth energy was causing woons, champyun and we were supposed to stop doing that?

Now I’m even more confused.

Anduin got pissy at me for assuming the nerubians are evil. I took his advice, got to know them for a patch, and now I know they’re evil.

You thought the title was Dragon Slayer?

Oh, no no no no. It was actually Dragon’s Layer.

My understanding was that the sword strike caused the wounds and collecting it up with the Heart of Azeroth was allowing it to be transfused back into the world soul to help heal it. Exploiting azerite that broke through to the surface for other purposes wasn’t really causing new harm, it was just wasting energy that could be used more productively to heal the world.

And I’ve been assuming the “dark heart” was created by Xala’tath or other void agents before her to exploit this titan infrastructure to infuse void energy into the world soul.

(But I understand my imagination doesn’t always line up perfectly with the writers have been trying to say)

That definitely wasn’t the vibe I got from Magni’s world quest voiceovers. If the azerite was just a byproduct, we wouldn’t have needed to go around sealing rifts, stopping anyone from mining or harvesting them.

I don’t know about infusing it into the world soul, but it’s definitely no coincidence that Xal’atath is trying to hook both the nerubians and now the goblins on harvesting industrial amounts of black blood. Probably nothing catastrophic going on there. :dracthyr_sweat:

There were new leaks appearing that we needed to seal, but I interpreted the hardened azerite being like the dried blood that has already leaked out. It wasn’t really what we were fixing, it what was what we were harvesting to empower our fixes.

(Admittedly, it this was really the writers’ intent, I realize it could be argued azerite power would have been something we’d be spending rather than just accumulating)

Well, if you kill any Dracthyr, we will know your dark secret.

How can canines be man’s best friend, and also the most vilified species by man?

And that one’s real. And contemporary.

What? Who? Who’s vilifying them? I’ll kick their butt.

Recently, folks out in Idaho.

Historically, virtually every population that had access to wolves or wild dogs in the area. In Medieval Europe, for example, the term “Wolf’s Head” was used as a pejorative for outlaws.

Pretty much every group of humans that have ever come in contact with wolves lol. It’s a pretty well known fact that wolves have a history of having zero issues killing humans throughout history.

56

Well sure. They’re carnivorous predators. So you watch out for them and be cautious. Give them a wide berth.

That just sounds cool to be honest.

Some dragons were bad dragons, what can I say?

I doubt anyone was cheering for Onyxia, for example.

58

In much the same way that William T. Sherman is both a revered Union hero and the reason that country music is sad.

“all dragons are equal, but but some dragons are more equal than others.”
