Vulpera Celebration Thread! šŸ¦Š

I am still stuck on a class for my Vulpera.
I am also looking for a flying mount that would look right. I donā€™t want to have to buy the Vulpine Familiar as that is a bit cliche to have a fox riding a fox.

My land mount with either be the hyena without the canopy swinging a lantern into the back of my head, the alabaster hyena from the emissary or the donkey from Drustvar.

Be quick. Be clever.

Rogue. Iā€™m saying roll a rogue. :stuck_out_tongue:

I donā€™t get this. We have enough furry humanoids. Why canā€™t I play a Saurok?

Saurok are having a bit of an anger management problem at present. Soon as they take some hardcore sensitivity training, hopefully weā€™ll see them in the Horde in the future.

Happy to see others wanting Saurok as a playable race! :meat_on_bone::crocodile:

They said being able to make allied race/pandaren DKs is a pre-order bonus in 8.3 I believe. The code is already there just not fully datamined or enabled.

Never enough furry humanoids, and we could do with scaly and feathery ones too.

Maybe Iā€™ll have all my Echoes of Mortality by thenā€¦ maybe. Thatā€™s pretty optimistic. :stuck_out_tongue:

I canā€™t remember them saying that. Iā€™d be more likely to believe that itā€™s a pre-order bonus thatā€™ll go live with the pre-patch (9.0)

Itā€™s on the features page of the expansion, I believe. They will be live with 8.3. But it was mentioned by others during the Con, just canā€™t remember specifically when.

From the expansion pre-order page:

ā€œIncludes a pre-purchase* of World of WarcraftĀ®: Shadowlandsā„¢ and early access to Death Knights for Allied Races and Pandaren starting with the Visions of Nā€™Zoth content update.ā€

Huh. Yeah, Iā€™m seeing it on MMO-Champion now too. Interesting. Well, whatevs, no idea how thatā€™s gonna work but I guess theyā€™ve got it covered.

I literally just read it again after posting that. Ugh. Let me find it.

" Base Edition

Includes a pre-purchase* of World of WarcraftĀ®: Shadowlandsā„¢ and early access to Death Knights for Allied Races and Pandaren starting with the Visions of Nā€™Zoth content update." Visions of Nā€™zoth is 8.3.

I hope Vulpera deathknights have fox skull faces. I would fall so in love.

Spirit/death walkers who got stuck on the ā€œother sideā€ and where tisted by it to become something similar to deathknights. Only able to be freed when the wall was shattered.

Just my speculation but is lore friendly and could be implemented. Granted it wont work for elf socities who have no such shamanistic or druidic connections to the ancestors. I will be using this story for my little Vulpera deathknight.

ā€œWhen night falls, the sands are always coldā€¦ā€

Like I said there is code for quests involving the new death knights in 8.3. It just hasnā€™t been fully uncovered. Even post blizzcon it seems to be partially encrypted. Probably cuz they havenā€™t done a PTR update yet.

13886/21000 to exalted after the Voldun emissary and Tuesday is my favorite event world quest bonus week so I bet I hit exalted before November ends then just waiting to make my Vulperas.

Chronologically, the new Death Knight experience will be set just before the cinematic we saw, when Sylvanas confronted Bolvar. Bolvar sensed something was going to happen/something was wrong with the Shadowlands so decided to recruit new Death Knights. It will be explained more in the starting experience. Of course, with your own character you can choose whatever story you want.

So, apparently there is an interview that says no 8.3 until ā€œearly next yearā€ because of people still doing the Eternal Palace raid. I really thought the Dotty pet, plus the patch having hit PTR at the beginning of October, gave us a real chance to see it sooner than that. Pretty disappointed. And disappointed in myself for being so wrong about this.

The patch will probably launch before then and the raid wonā€™t hit until next year.

Iā€™m kinda hoping it was a mis-translation and he meant the raid and/or the site is unreliable in general and is misquoting. Butā€¦ weā€™ll see.

Edit P.S.: I consider myself a generally casual player. Iā€™ve only done a couple Mythic 0ā€™s when story required. And Iā€™ve only done the most of the raids once in LFR (Still havenā€™t done Uldir). And yet my Heart of Azeroth is still level 70. And my planned alts are gonna be mostly Vulpera, so canā€™t do anything on that front.

For those of you who still are working on the Volā€™dunai rep, this week is the WQ weekly, plus the Darkmoon Faire and Anniversary events are up. Thatā€™s a combine 75% rep increase from WQs right now.
