Vulpera Discussion Megathread (Part 1)

Nah, not every race should get priest. I actually miss the days when gnomes and tauren didn't have priests. It adds more flavor to the race.


I rather agree with this logic. I miss when you had more specific combos. Every race being able to be almost anything is kinda... Uninspired.

Gnomes originally couldn't play any healing class. If a gnome got hurt they would just die.


Well, everyone did have first-aid back then, and could bandage themselves.
Allied races have (mostly) been relatively conservative with their classes. I'm betting Vulpera will have only have 6 or 7 classes total
Is it the final countdown?

Probably. This thread has had an interesting history on its cap. Leading up to 500 posts it was assumed the thread would cap, and it did, and a second megathread was started. A day or so into the second megathread though it was discovered the cap had been raised on this one, though no mention of it was made by an administrator.

We shifted discussion back here and learned through the inquiry of an MVP that our cap had been raised but would not be raised again. We assumed we would cap a 1000 and move to a new thread. However, 1000 came and went, then 1500. We are now coming up on 2000 which, as we understand it, is the absolute maximum a thread can reach.

I've drafted the first post of a new megathread to post if we cap. If we get to post 2001 though we may have outright broken the forums.

The new thread will very likely be the last thread before BlizzCon 2018 and with it, either the confirmation or deconfirmation of playable Vulpera. Either way the forum will explode with activity so it seemed like capping this thread was a good time to address all the loyal forum goers who have kept the dream alive.
This is good stuff

Truly living up to the name “megathread”

I wonder how the voice acting would be if we got them to be playable?

Would they be more tough sounding like nisha, or calmer like Kiro?
Vulpera are cute enough for me to maybe roll 1, but they'd be far from my 1st choice.

Yep. Side note: I wished they released tinkers with like a first aid spec back in the day, and had gnomes/goblins be the main races for it.

And yeah, allied races have been a bit more conservative.

Tough sounding Vulpera is just cringe inducing... thats like trying to make gnomes sound like Rambo. I wouldnt mind a middle ground but please no christian bale batman vulpera.

I, personally, am hoping the female straddles the line between Nisha and Meerah. So kind of cute but also kind of dangerous and violent. As for the male, there is only the one voiced male NPC besides the generic ones (which kind of sound like him anyway) so it's difficult for me to imagine the male vulpera sounding like anybody but Kiro.
And if my calculations are correct, this should be the last post in the megathread. I'd like to thank everyone for sticking through these eleven months, and I hope I see you in the next thread that I'll be posting shortly...

Edit: Oh dear god, we're not capped.

...WHELP. Welcome back to the megathread everyone!
they give more than 2000 posts?

As you are post number 2001... apparently yes. We broke the cap extension limit.

It could be that there is no truly hard cap and it was always moderators who locked stuff past the soft cap of 500. With it being Sunday morning... I don't think any are up.

Oh well.

Vulpera live on!

Just like true foxes we grabbed more thread space and ran with it! The latest troll helped push us up in numbers though. Glad I missed that one.

I can't believe I didn't think of posting my Foxtober album here.

A majority of it was taken by me mixed with a few others.


So many awesome photos! Though I have to admit, sleeping in a big pile like that with all those sharp things pointing everywhere looks like a bad idea :3

We can only hope T T

Only four weeks until blizzcon, only four weeks until blizzcon...
+100! We are near the end of the road? WOW!

There are no words to do justice to all those who've come here to show your support for the Vulperas and disseminate all the information about this new race!

Suffice it to say that it was an honor to follow and participate in this megathread!
I am eternally grateful to all of you!
Good night and good luck!
Ahaha! Not capped!? Yes! That makes me happier than a butterfly.

I'm really glad this forum wasnt capped, I didnt really want to see this one end...But seeing a forum go past 2000 posts is amazing. Maybe our cap is like 5000 posts? Well, that'd be incredible.

"For the Vulpera! And For Vol'dun!"
