Leakmas/future content discussion (Spoilers!)

It’s effed up but a lot of that stuff sounds cool to me. A shaman tank spec? I’d never play anything else.

the idea of widespread cyborgization to combat the old gods tickles me pink because

  1. it’s absolutely absurd
  2. it’d probably piss off the weirdo rp lore purists more than playable demon hunters did

As much as Shadowlands would interest me I genuinely think that the next expansion is going to be related to the Rise of the Dragonflights if not located on the Dragon Isles ( I forget the name.)

Kalec shows up. Ebonhorn shows up. Twilight Dragonflight Whelpings are shown to be fluttering around Grim Batol. Wrathion’s getting more and more active, has a model update and, moreso, has his agents everywhere. Along with us helping Alexstrasza and such.

You know what I genuinely think the hero class will be? Not Tinker. No; that’s too easy. But Dragonsworn. Heroes who’re on par with Demon Hunters and Death Knights who’ve aligned themselves with a specific Dragonflight.

Red - Melee DPS
Blue - Ranged DPS
Black - Tank
Green - Healing

Or w/e. They might do something even more interesting with how they’re levelled, with there being no actual specs to choose from and instead a pick and choose style of what people wish to augment their Dragonsworn.

maybe world of warcraft: the age of dragons will finally give us playable scalies :pensive:

Lmao.

The reason why I think it’s Dragonsworn is because most of our hero classes too have aligned with the expansion’s theme. DK - Monk - Demon Hunter.

What bugs me is why would they name this expansion the ‘Battle for Azeroth’ if all the hints keep proving towards the next expansion actually being the real Battle for Azeroth.

I mean, every expansion is a Battle for Azeroth in some form. XD Except maybe WoD. That was kinda us kicking the Iron Horde out in the pre-event and then being like “Oh yeah well we might as well beat them up in their own homeland too”

I suspect this one is meant to specifically tap into the faction war. Not necessarily the next world-ending crisis.

alright who wants to talk about the lore of body hair because going off the in-game models it seems as though the only species on Azeroth who grow hair below their necks are the Animal-people, Humans, and Dwarves. Orcs, Draenei, gnomes, elves, etc all seem baby-smooth.

Dwarves and humans also have smooth armpits, though it is unclear if they shave this and leave the belly/chest hair.

so what are the implications here. Is it just a cultural thing, and people of all species grow chest hair but only dwarves/humans don’t shave it? Is the seven paragraph section of my TRP dedicated to describing my Draenei’s glorious and rich fields of chest and stomach hair lore breaking? Does nobody grow armpit hair?

and what of the old gods, surely these hairless creatures of fleshy tendrils have something to do with the dirth of body hair on Azeroth. Curse of Flesh = Curse of no back hair? I think it is clear

I’m just… …

I gotta say. Aside from some odd wording and Sylvanas still being in charge I dont really hate this.

Doubt id return but a Draenic Tinker class would definitely tempt me back.

ditto

i mean, it’s painfully fake because there’s no way blizzard would put that much work into something

but it sounds like it’d be neato

also watching everyone who doesn’t roleplay as an absurdly long-lived race panic over the timeskip would be amusing

Oh my god could you imagine? I’m just picturing all the little gatekeepers trying to come up with weird rules for time skips and me just sitting on my 25k+ year old DK just giggling myself silly.

I actually find it kind of plausible? It’s a solution to a lot of Blizzard’s problems, but it’s done in such a haphazard, almost-good, half-butted way that it kind of sounds like their present MO.
