🐟 The Ankoan and Jinyu Race Discussion Thread

Agreed! I like it better than gilgoblin.

Cashcollecta-emerald-dream · May 7, 2019, 5:13am

Thats right. Here is a video showing so. (SPOILERS) Don’t click if you don’t want to see Nazjatar or the Gilgoblin bodyguard footage.

On topic. Ankoan also worship Gral if I am not mistaken? They have the buff by Gral that mentioned them as faithful to the sea loa?

Now my question. If there anything suggesting that Gral can’t grant druidic powers?

Rorrand-wyrmrest-accord · May 7, 2019, 5:17am

Not much evidence either for or against that notion. Gral’s largely a rather underdeveloped loa. He’s definitely one of the weaker ones, at least.

Cashcollecta-emerald-dream · May 7, 2019, 5:19am

I’ll keep this in mind.

Keldar-sargeras · May 7, 2019, 5:20am

Question: how are you able to link to images and videos? I tried to get a few up for my thread over here (🐉 Official Twilight Highlands Allied Race Megathread), but find myself unable to do so.

Rorrand-wyrmrest-accord · May 7, 2019, 5:21am

You have to reach Trust Level 3.

Cashcollecta-emerald-dream · May 7, 2019, 5:28am

Keldar. Like Rorrand Explained. You have to be trust level 3. However you probably need an more immediate solution amirite? Here is a tip that I can offer you which will help you out. If you want to link images that are displayed openly for everyone in a thread but aren’t trust level 3, your best option is to upload images as videos like so:

Now its obviously still inferior, but its better than not being able to link images openly. Here is the easiest way I know to do this. Follow these steps:

Get OBS Broadcaster(completely free)
Take a 1-5 second video of an image.
Upload it to youtube and make sure the video is set to public.
Make a library of your saved videos somewhere online so you can easily link them when you need.

This at least can help you with a more immediate solution.

No to both. We don’t need more ugly species.

Autai-moon-guard · May 7, 2019, 10:46am

You can stick with your pointy eared humans

Velhary-proudmoore · May 7, 2019, 12:12pm

My support for Ankoan and Gilgoblin!

Zimos-dark-iron · May 7, 2019, 6:18pm

No, we need MORE Ugly Species, less pretty ones.

Ketrah-dalaran · May 7, 2019, 7:46pm

As I always say. For anything to be an allied race, there needs to be females as well. And so far, I don’t see any. I hope blizzard will surprise us though. I really like the Ankoan.

Eristra-moon-guard · May 7, 2019, 7:52pm

I’m really anxious to see how future PTR builds shape up.

Gulrum-area-52 · May 7, 2019, 9:40pm

This plus aquatic ones. EQ had Frogloks and Iksar. WoW is way behind the curve on playable fish, lizard, and amphibian races.

Ulkessh-proudmoore · May 8, 2019, 2:00am

The female voices definitely add hope.

Gawp-emerald-dream · May 8, 2019, 6:33am

they look a lot cooler than your transmog that’s for sure.

Nicolete-moon-guard · May 8, 2019, 6:45am

Some of the male voices sound a bit weird in my opinion, but it’s good to hear that there are female voices.

I’m all for pretty races, but i’m afraid there aren’t much “Pretty Races” to choose from in this expansion.

Besides, I think Pearlfin are quite pretty they’re based off the koifish

who else did you want to see as an AR anyway

Smuffy-tanaris · May 8, 2019, 7:31am

Is there a shark variant based on Arlong?

Hylianlich-boulderfist · May 8, 2019, 7:32am

If we don’t see Sethrak happening on the Alliance I’d welcome these guys would beat getting more rehash races.

Hylianlich-boulderfist · May 8, 2019, 7:40am

Make a monk call em Jinbe master of fishman karate!
