A lot of players had VolâJin chilling in the village when they showed up for the quest. No mention of him, no hints for when or if heâs going to wake up, honestly I would not be surprised in the least bit if they just completely forgot about him.
HAH thatâs pretty good!

Thank you! I wish I could say I came up with it on my own but itâs a mix of two insults I heard on television.
Oh, he is coming. He will be Soon â˘
I was 100% sure he wonât make a cameo, but I thought that at least he will be mentioned on how Darkspears are going on without him. But Looks like they moved on, and no longer bother with even memory of him.
Truth is that Developers thought that nobody would care that VolâJin died. And the reason why this plot in BfA and later SL was added was becuase players kept on nagging them about it. Had it not be for the players, VolâJin wouldnât get this whole ascension plot (which imo was not earned as he didnât do anything trul outstanding), and had it not be for the players Bwonsamdi would be dungeon boss. But Since Bwonsamdi quickly became fan favorite they changed the plot to figh Muehâzala instead.
Itâs honestly scary. Lost Rezan as Loa of Kings, and devs planned to get rid of Bwon and giving him villain bat - which would screw over both Darkspears and additionally Zandalari.
The overall set is amazing, but a mask-under-the-nose option would have been cool.

I Agree with you about the helm, but as for the rest:
- The boots are lazy, and are lower quality render of WC3 Reforged armor.
- the leggings, especially on the male model, arenât unique in any way to Darkspear.
- Belt is like boots, low quality using WC3 concept.
- Chest has no Darkspear uniqueness.
- the shoulders are ok, but would not everyone loves the asymmetric look. Not as big of a deal, but I would have liked a little more effort put into the right shoulder.
- The back piece should sit Higher on the male modelâs back⌠it just floats at the middle of the back and gets lost behind hair or helms.
- The alt masks just arenât good. The look rushed, and fit badly.

Iâm glad you like it but I canât agree that those boots are âamazingâ or the belt clipping inssues on the male are âamazingâ or the lack of skulls and failure to capture the heritage like Darkspear armor used to is âamazingâ.

Because they were a rush job, they took something that was made 4 expansions ago and only pur loop around it, but that doesnât even fir the troll face.
They shouldâve give us 2 helm options, woodeen voodoo mask and separately cloth that goes under the nose.
It was such a no brainer. And yet we got 3 masks that barely anyone will use.

i just finished questline. and my opinion is everything about this is completely garbage.
we must act it like shadowlands exp or matrix 4 . they are not happened for us. and this crapshow is too.
They wasted a chance easy thing what are troll players waiting for years. I told my thoughts about this set? lol before. Still same garbage orcish plate armor with troll make up. And other 2 masks? worse than elephant crap.
Why you are not listening your community? Where is our warglaive? Where are our " Shadow Hunter - Hexxer- Witch Doctor" titles?
You could add Volâjin to storyline with epic scene while he gave us his warglaive for Glory of Darkspear.
We did trial of loas . Where is my Shadow Hunter title?

I have a theory Shadow hunter will be a class someday, at least I hope.
I really liked the questline and the introduction of the forgotten loa, I actually thought I was just lacking in lore but nah, they are new.
It helped me accept the new Rush ka mask because its supposed to represent a rebirth and to represent these new(yet old) forgotten Loa.
Without those bits of lore I would still be very against this new mask.
But we still need a traditionalist mask based on old lore.
no its impossible. cuz there is no shadow hunter for alliance.
i only accept mask if cloth covers whole face.not only nose.
rest of the set still garbage.

I always imagined it would be a spec for some holy warrior class and the other spec would be Warden for night elf since they both use those glaive like things.

The Kevo Ya Siti Loa is new but the other Loa Lukou was a lore existent Loa that was supposed to look like a beautiful woman.
Iâve got my doubts on them every implementing a Shadow Hunter in game, itâd likely be a Hero Talent but the way they chose to design Hero Talents despite feedback makes this even more unlikely.
To be honest making the mask new by hand makes âAâ new design easy to digest and accept but it doesnât change the way it looks, still looks like a goofy elephant mask with too much cloth bunched up on top of the nose, that gear slot should have been reserved for the kind of mask weâve been asking for, for years.
Thatâd be sensible but with Warden out the window as Hero Talent the odds of that grow even smaller.
Agreed, either make it a full mask, or bring it under the nose and cover the jaw.

If they ever made Shadowhunters playable Iâd seriously hope they never give them to Alliance but technically a person of another race could worship and honor Troll loas and pass the trial. Theyâd have to do some gymnastics with the story writing in game to make it make sense which I donât ever see happening.

Yeah they donât typically justify adding this kind of thing, theyâre going to be giving us SanâLayne of every race in TWW and not a single quest to justify it. They were just elves before, donât get me wrong Iâm in favor of opening it up but a little explaination about why my Tauren is a SanâLayne would be nice.
Or maybe create a class that works identically, but has different name and visuals? Like giving warden to elves and shadowhunter to trolls.

When they asked for Hero Talent feedback I advocated heavily against the principal design because it basically dooms any potential for the many race specific âHero Classesâ from lore like Shadow Hunter. By making the Hero Talents so bland theyâve reduced the fantasies they chose like Farseer, Dark Ranger, SanâLayne and Warden to a couple flavorless talent nodes likely eliminated them from ever becoming a future class.
If theyâd worked a bit harder on the design potential as an evergreen feature they could have laid the ground work to make Shadowhunters, Warbraves, Blademasters and many more but they were too sloppy. If Shadow Hunter ever comes a class theyâll need to tie it to something else for the alliance since Wardens are not a weak Hero Talent choice.
