The Unofficial Saurok Playable Race Discussion Megathread! šŸŠ

There has been a lot of TWW news gradually being announced since yesterday. I picked out a few things of interest to discuss for this post, though Iā€™ll be keeping an eye on more upcoming news to post of anything of interest.

First off, Dracthyr will be getting more class options in the future:

I thought I would mention this because I donā€™t see this having any effect on playable Saurok chances. Dragons are dragons and lizards are lizards.

Plus if we can have multiple flavors of elves and even a new Dwarf race as a leading expansion announcement, I see no reason why we couldnā€™t get Saurok, Sethrak, Drakonids, Tortollans, and any other reptilian races alongside Dracthyr. Moreso when theyā€™re all particularly unique.

Speaking of, next is some news on the Earthen, including their racials:

What I wanted to mention about them is the racial where they donā€™t eat food other than gems:

It got me wondering if Saurok could get a racial where they get a bonus eating meat related food. Of course that would require putting every food item in the game in a meat and not meat category and would stockpiling meat to maximize gainsā€¦which as a Saurok, you should be doing anyway, but still, itā€™s a fun thought.

Also makes me wonder if Earthen Mages will summon gems to munch on instead of food they canā€™t consumeā€¦you think maybe Saurok Mages would summon meat? Maybe stuff like meat buns or giant turkey legs. Seems like something they would have as a big priority.

Lastly, I wanted to mention in the Wowcast yesterday, they specifically mentioned that the new expansion area is close to Pandaria. Which, as you may know, Saurok have been traveling off of, so it makes me wonder still if we could see any Saurok in the new expansion area. Likely not, but still something to consider.

Seems like weā€™ve had a lot of Pandaria stuff lately, and in thinking about itā€¦

-Exploring Azeroth: MoP came out awhile ago.

-MoP Remix was recently announced.

-TWWā€™s continent we quest on is very close to Pandaria.

-Titan related stuff sounds like an upcoming theme, where Mogu were created by titans and could play a role in the future, possibly as antagonists.

-Saurok would likely have artifacts and knowledge of Titan stuff from vault raiding and would have tactics to be able to take down enemy Mogu and possibly enemy Titans fairly easilyā€¦

:thinking:

Ok, sure, this is all wishful thinking. But it seems interesting that stuff is aligning kinda nicely in the background for Pandaria related stuff. And if there are enemy Titans and Mogu who want to dominate the world (of Warcraft!), it could be written to have Saurok give a helping handā€¦just saying! :smiley:

Iā€™ll be keeping an eye on more TWW news of interest to report back here, which is still gradually coming out!

-Playable Saurok for the Horde please! :meat_on_bone::crocodile:
