Logged in hoping to do “A Flame, Extinguished”, but the game still says I have to wait to see what Wrathion and Sabellian found inside Aberrus. Since I returned to playing WoW in 9.1 I’ve never seen Blizzard skip a week in unlocking chapters in a story campaign. Is this going to be the first time? Can Blizzard confirm no last chapter this week?

I was also assuming the final chapter was coming out today, and I’m wondering why Blizz isn’t releasing it

nope they didnt release it because a chunk of players are renewing their sub right this week

Mythic raid is out this week, so the dragon boys still are technically looking through Aberrus. Mythic is the canon version of raids so after it’s cleared we should be able to finish the campaign.

a typical timegating to accumulate extra subs. Been like this since legion

They do have a quest to kill Sarkareth. I wonder if finishing that quest is required for the final chapter (or perhaps story-wise the final chapter takes place after the defeat of Sarkareth), and WoW devs are waiting until the last wing of LFR comes out?
Came to ask the same thing. For those of us who don’t raid, this is annoying

Mythic raid was cleared yesterday
It’s probably not coming until after the final wing of LFR opens, which would coincide with the reactivation of the Catalyst.

Mythic has already been cleared.
I figured it requires me to go into the raid, but that’s going to be awhile until it’s LFR
but not by you. the storyline is still at that stage for you.
Okay? The campaign quest isnt related to downing Sarkareth in Mythic.
But certainly involves the defeat of the cranky drake just like the ZM campaign did with Anduin which the masses can’t/won’t do until it is available in LFR. It’s likely also to give the illusion we’re advancing and making strides in the raid and this isn’t a few hour task especially given all the narrative buildup and this being such a huge defining moment for Wrathion and Sab (and Ebon when he decides to get off his donkey and do something other than just mumble his way through chats.

It was out last week, too.
Maybe it does have to do with killing Sarkareth, and they’re waiting for LFR launch to release it. But atm killing sarkareth does not magically unlock a quest.

The last chapter is Sarkareth’s death. That’s the last quest in the chain, and don’t see it going anywhere outside of that. Maybe a follow up quest going, “Hey. We beat Sarkareth.”

I would assume so, as we needed to beat Razegath in at least lfr to finish the story.
It doesn’t have to do with the player killing Sark or it would be available to those who already did it just like the ZM campaign never required defeating Anduin and gave the cutscene when he was defeated anyway explaining what happened (nor did the player have to defeat Sylvanas in SoD to finish that campaign either).
But that also means the questline won’t unlock until the arbitrary time when the masses have the default way to end him. It’s also to give a narrative pause because this is technically a prolonged campaign and not just a quick task. Realistically, we’re spending weeks inching our way through this while Wrath and Sab battle the voices in their heads (probably some expected narrative fallout from this) and shows their leadership chops to the remains of their flight. It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense for all of these events to happen within hours. Let’s not forget Sab and Ebonhorn both suffered massive injuries getting to this point and Fyrakk is out and about wrecking the dragon isles with his newly acquired power while the other aspects/flights are, supposedly, working together to stop him (likely setting him up to be a world boss down the line).
Why was there no LFR wing this week? Staggering it in the first place is idiotic, but a two week stagger? Pathetic.
Blizzard’s elite clique isn’t going to /wrist if LFR is out same time as the rest of the versions.
