If I were to guess, it might be because the Pearlfin Jinyu want to be close to fresh water so they donāt dry outā¦that or Hozen are more cute and marketable. :v
So I thought of a fun World Quest that could be a neat reference. Thereās an arcade game called āRampage,ā a game series I grew up playing a lot, where one of the playable characters is a giant lizard named Lizzie:
Each of the three playable characters is a human that turned into a giant monster. Lizzie was actually a woman who swam through a radioactive lake. I think you can guess who I played the most.
Anyway, my World Quest idea is that of a giant female Saurok, named Eliza or Elizabeth as the reference, attacking an Alliance base somewhere, where you need to take her down by jumping into a tank to shoot explosives. Tanks are one of the more annoying enemies in the games, so it makes sense to use them here.
Alliance NPC: A Saurok just swam through a lake the Goblins dumped some chemical waste in and grew in size and hunger! Quick, get into one of the nearby tanks and take them down before they cause too much damage!
You and other players would have to keep shooting her while trying to avoid getting kicked around and knocked out of the tank.
Alliance NPC: (When finishing the world quest) That lizard went on quite the rampage! Those Goblins really need to figure out a better waste-management system!
Just a fun idea I had for a world quest I wanted to share with a game series I like.
More Saurok research to continue in the future!
