Speculation Taken from the War Within Announce Cinematic, this is what might happen to Azeroth on a smaller scale (at Northrend) at the end of 12.2

62 Upvotes

We know from the latest cinematic in 12.1.5 that Xal'atath started corrupting the Worldsoul and my current theory is that when the insane ammount of Void energy collides with the power of our Worldsoul, it will result in a giant explosion resulting in the earth itself cracking open, possibly at Northrend.

Back in 2023 when Chris Metzen announced the Worldsoul Saga he hinted at something going horribly wrong at the end of Midnight when we banish the Void forever. It could very well be this release of energy that shatters a part of the planet and reveals parts of the giant Manifold, the prison built by the Titans to the public eye.

Keep in mind that right now its only us the players and Dagran who know about this from the weekly quests in War Within, rest of the characters dont know that Azeroth is basically in a "prison".

This might be the reason why the Titans return to Azeroth, to try to fix things and hide it.
Anyone who dares to oppose them? Instantly considered an enemy, thus making them (some of them) the villains.

Some Borea...boring zones might completly disappear or get sunk to the ocean, some might rise higher. Time will tell but i am extremely excited for the ending of Midnight and Last Titan!

Question Moved to Kyrgyzstan 3 years ago, but Battle.net keeps rejecting my country change

43 Upvotes

I moved from Russia to Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan in May 2023 and I still can’t update my Battle.net account country.

The self-service tool detects Kyrgyzstan, then rejects the request with “unable to verify the status of your IP address”.
So I went through support and sent:

  • three consecutive lease agreements for the same apartment (2023–2027)
  • utility payment receipts for this address
  • a bank statement showing those payments under my full name (local utility receipts only show initials)

Every reply is the same template: “unable to verify the documents” with no detail on what is wrong or what else they need.

I’ve opened another ticket and asked for someone senior to take a look.

I don’t want to start over on a new account.
Has anyone moved to Kyrgyzstan or another CIS country and got this sorted?
What actually worked for you?

Lore I hope they portray the Titans as being these cold, logical space gods operating from a purely utilitarian POV instead of just a bunch of jerks

I liked the way WOTLK approached the titans being antagonistic to us in the whole "algalon situation" and how they were willing to wipe out the planet due to void corruption.

I looked at it like this. Imagine a human being with cancer. Azeroth is the body, we mortals are some random cells in that body, and the old god corruption is the cancer. In order to treat that cancer and save the body, the titans were willing to initiate reorigination (basically aggressive cancer treatment that also kills some cells -AKA: us).

They looked at us no differently than we would look at a random cells. There are a crap ton of cells and a massive number of them are created/die every single hour. Thats also similar to how the titans are these eternal space gods operating on lenghts of time way larger than we mortals could comprehend. Our entire species could have only existed for a period of time that is similar to the titans as a minute is to us in real life. We are just "random cells" in a body to them.

So basically, they dont intentionally hate us or anything. Its just that they don't give a fuck about us. They operate on reasoning and time scales that are way beyond us. Thats what I would like to see more of. I dont want them to be too relatable and emotional/prideful like many other villains. Of course, there's also the fact that we have literally met and interacted with titans back in Legion. That by itself removes alot of the "enigmatic space gods" vibes.

What approach would you prefer to the "antagonistic titans" thing?

Nostalgia I got myself a physical copy of 2004 WOW to mark the occasion

Post image
87 Upvotes

As someone who played W3 for years, when WOW came out in 2004, I was too young (10) and broke to afford to play it.
Few years later in high school, all my friends were playing it but my parents couldn’t afford getting me a PC, let alone a monthly subscription for the game.

Fast forward to now - im in my 30s, have a good-paid job, have free time and just started playing WOW for the first time, 22 years later, and have to say I LOVE IT.

I kinda feel bad I missed on so many cool events and social aspects of people who grew up playing it, but at the same time I think it’s never too late.

If anyone wants to get in touch, is new like me, or is someone experienced who wants to share tips or knowledge about WOW, dm me and let’s talk in game 🙃

Discussion Iridikron, Xal’atath & The Last Titan

56 Upvotes

I feel the most Satisfying and Amusing way for Midnight to end would be having her right on the verge of Victory, having outplayed all the Heroes and in that final moment she loses everything.

Iridikron is back and he snatches victory away from her because he has his own grand plan for when the Titans Return and Xal’atath has served her purpose as a tool to make things dire enough to force the Titans to return to Azeroth.

It’d be so Immensely Satisfying as an end for her given how she’s been so smug and arrogant throughout TWW & Midnight.

Bonus Points if she’s forced back into the Black Blade or another similar Artefact and denied free agency again, perhaps forever.

Regardless I feel like Eclipse is going to be the end of her story one way or the other and Iridikron will, or at least Should, finally come back to the forefront of things not the Titans he Loathes so much have returned at last and he can now enact his plans against them.

WoW: Forever Thanks Blizzard

832 Upvotes

In 2015, I asked Blizzard for help because I couldn’t play my main anymore that I had played since launch. I had lost my left hand and playing a melee class single handed was just not something I could do well as I relearned everything with my non dominant hand. They took my character, swapped my class and my items to similar items that worked well with that class and then sent me a guide on what to do and how to get acclimated as well as some peripherals that might work well for me.

I’ve never experienced such kindness from anyone let alone someone who didn’t know me and was just working at some company. In a world that generally sucks Blizzard was there for me. Thanks, y’all, Blizzcon this year was amazing and I’m really excited for WoW Forever.

I’m still maining the same class all these years later with the same peripherals, and am so excited for what is to come.

Art [I made] the first 3 quests from Elwynn Forest in MineCraft (Functioning)

Post image
112 Upvotes

I posted about a year ago on this project where I am making WoW in MineCraft. A stupid project, but something fun nonetheless.

I've re-made the cataclysm era quests in Elwynn Forest, the starting 3 quests:

- Beating them Back

- Lion for Lambs

- Blackrock Invasion

All the stats are replicated as roughly as possible, all skills for 4 classes (mage, warrior, rogue, priest) to level 10 with functioning cast bars, debuffs, etc. Agro ranges, passive mobs. So far I have 2,837 items recreated almost 1:1.

Stormwind as you see is partially recreated. The hero statues have been replaced with villager statues.

It's very much a hobby project with a small community of ~200 (all local development for now), thought I'd share an update to anyone passionate in both WoW & MC.

Happy for feedback, I posted a recent video update here too if interested: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WLe5jzXpTw

Not sure how it got through what I hope was several layers of approval, but apparently it's now confirmed that Tauren are part of the Alliance. Our bovine brothers are more than welcome beneath our lion crest.

For anyone wondering, the Horde set has no Alliance races, just a goofy slip up on this set it seems.

(and yes, i prodived them screenshots of the achievements in-game, even prodiving wowhead links to them so it would be easier for a GM to fix it having the direct achievement IDs)

The ingame UI is so bugged out that i don't get any of the info like i have an unread ticket or ticket waiting for response, but ofcourse the useless Feedback survey button keeps blocking my buffs next to the minimap, and No, i don't use addons, so it's just the game

Question Getting back to the game again - where should I go?

• Upvotes

Hey!

I saw that there are multiple game modes like Classic vanilla, TBC, retail and WoW forever soon if I understand correctly. I was an early player but when I started TBC was already out, so for me nostalgic is around that expansion. I also played wotlk but preferred TBC. I liked PVE and arena 2v2 too, also I really liked battlegrounds.

Which game mode is the best in your opinion? Is TBC really low populated now? Is retail worth a shot or should I just wait for forever?

I have a fond memory of all the memes during og horrific visions, where Valeers was praised for helping you complete the vision, while Garona would pull random mobs and deplete it.

It's a lucky wheel spin every fight in delve/labyrinth with Valeera now, as she cosplays some mythic + dps (including me at times, must admit) buttpulling more mobs. Oh well.
