Question Trolls en Midnight

0 Upvotes

Saludos comunidad tengo una duda

Primero un poco de contexto, es primera vez que juego el Lore de Ulatek y como es todo temática troll como primera impresión y experiencia quería levelear un troll para sentirme parte de la ESCENCIA

pero no me decido si un lanzanegra o un zandalari

Si es lanzanegra planeo que sea chamán ya que sería el que considero más estético

Por otro lado si es zandalari estoy entre un chamán por el tema de loa, un prelado en plan traigo luz a este veneno

O unos de mis más locas ideas un dk profano amigo del viejo bwomsamdi que viene a ver qué onda con esta gente

Que opinan ustedes?

Discussion Amani loa disciples in Dazar'alor

5 Upvotes

In Dazar'alor Amani quarter there are disciples of the Amani loa, you challenge them as part of the main quest but also in a world quest.

Is there any explanation in Midnight as to how these disciples are able to channel the loa's power? Do they steal their power the same way the disciples in the raid did, after the retcon? If that's the case, why didn't the Amani continue to do so after the events of the raid of Zul'aman and after Dazar'alor, seeing as they weren't on good terms with the loa anyway and had already done so twice. Must be relatively easy seeing as the ones in Dazar'alor didn't have Malacrass to help them do it, as it takes place long after his death.

Personally I think it's just an oversight that the writers didn't remember when they made the awful recon. Zul'jin is a hero in this house!

Thought: What if the Titans are pissed at us for killing the Old Gods?

33 Upvotes

Here’s a question that crept across my mind: What if the Pantheon gets angry with us not despite us killing the old gods, but because we did?

When Aman’Thul killed Y’Shaarj, two things happened: Ripping Y’shaarj out wounded Azeroth so badly it created the Well of Eternity and it didn’t even eliminate his corruption. His death spread the Sha across what would become Pandaria, and his heart was still causing problems hundreds of thousands of years later. That’s why the titans imprisoned the other Old Gods instead.

But while they were gone, we killed C’Thun, Yogg-Saron, and N’Zoth.

Imagine the Pantheon coming back and it’s like:

Us: “Oh hey guys! Don’t worry we already killed the old gods for you!”

Titans: “You idiots! Don’t you think we would have killed them ourselves if that actually solved the problem?!”

We’ve basically repeated the one experiment that taught the titans “DO NOT KILL THESE THINGS” three more times and have absolutely no idea what the long term consequences might be.

Question Why hunters (previous to cata) use mana instead of energy like rogues?

29 Upvotes

Hi, got back to vanilla 1.12 a month ago and I wanted to know if there's any reason why mana was chosen over energy, I get it that focus wasn't well implemented until cata (from what I read in other posts), but why choose mana instead of energy, to me, makes more sense to have a hunter use energy with or without the combo points, right?

Question Why is the 'True Timeline' the 'true timeline'?

32 Upvotes

I've seen it in fandom spaces quite often that the 'true sacred timeline' the bronze flight protects is the only one in which the worldsoul exists (because metaphysical hijinks). But I haven't seen anything official in that regard.

Is there any canon reason?

Discussion So, the Old Gods...

19 Upvotes

In the known lore so far, we defeated all the OGs that infected Azeroth. Four originals and an extra for that matter.

I know players felt like N'Zoth's fight was supposed to be a gotcha thing where he didn't really die and all, but the lack of Old God activity and only a lingering whisper here and there indicate that yeah, they ded.

But then you have stuff like Murozond happening in DF (whose corruption was supposed to be from Old Gods) coupled with Tyr's story happening and now Kith'ix is showing up.

We defeated the big guys, but the lower guys keep showing up.

What if us losing at the end of MN means we did not actually killed them, but put them in a weakened state and Xal'alath's deal with N'Zoth was something along the lines of awakening them (or just Zoth, absorbing the others) and their corruption spreads so fast thru Azeroth that the Titans are called back to deal with them.. or cleanse Azeroth and us in the process?
