WoW: Cataclysm -> New Expansion

[TS]=Hark=[TS] · **Posted:** Mon Aug 17, 2009 6:43 pm

umm to the people who have problems with a NE mage conflicting with lore... try reading a book. you know the hyborn? they where origanlly NE servents to the queen azhara and very gifted mages. NE mages draw their power from the well of eternity, which was destroyed... but the magic was spread throughout all of azeroth. therefor it would make sence that NE can be mages. grrr... i cant seem to remember what they where called. but there was a society of NE socerers. so actualy lore wise... NE should be mages more then trolls. because i really dont see anywhere in their description about being canabalistic beasts that they new anything about magic. and if your saying that NE shouldnt be mages because of no more they dont allow magic dealing in the NE society anymore, well arnt NE supposed to be lvl 1 but start at 1000 years old? meaning they could have been practicing magic long before it was outlawed.

There was never saying they couldn't be. But it's against their society, so why would that change now?

Because everything can change. Maybe they changed the way they view certain aspects of life ,therefore allowing the studies of Arcane magic:)

I read that part Hark, but seeing as it was outlawed tens of thousands of years ago, they would've known.

Talking about the Maelstrom,isn't that expansion suppose to be based on it?I thought we would get something like Water Mount and get to go in the Maelstrom to enter another world

Maelstrom isn't suppose to be some sort of "portal" to another world...

Well tbh, for several reasons I doubt all that is a lie, hopefully too. So they added like 2 classes to most factions, but 1 class to Trolls? C'mon they said it themselves before that every faction is limited by a certain number of classes, so if they're adding to classes to all factions, Trolls should get 2 new classes not just 1.

Also, Blizzard officially said something about graphics, they said they didn't have intentions on working on that. So as most of you know, to allow flying in Azeroth, they need to rebuild the whole graphics which contradicts with wot they've said not a long time ago. I think I read it in the dev team's questions they used to post about each class and how they wanted to balance them in 3.2

So well, I believe it's a total lie until at least Blizzard says something about it.

They will need to rebuild Azeroth anyway. The maelstrom has always been on the map. So it's nearly 100% certain to become an expansion some day. When that day comes, high level character will be spending their time there, which means they will need to be able to fly. (As it's in the ocean). Flying will mean rebuilding azeroth. It's gonna have to happen some day.

At the center of the Maelstrom is a location known as the Eye.
When Brann Bronzebeard visited it, he said "Indeed, I saw more forms of life in the Eye than I imagined existed in all the world." because besides the various creatures he found, there are also water elementals, octopi, sharks, hydras, threshadons, frenzies. and giant squid.

If those class/race combos are true, heres a nifty explanation for each of them (lore-wise): http://www.wow.com/2009/08/18/a-discuss ... binations/

LOL at the Deadmines and SFK heroic dungeons.

EDIT: I couldn't stand the water effects but it looks great now!

it's a rip off. Azeroth looks ugly now. Other content is fine. Class combinations suck. I don't feel like paying 30 euros for that shit. First time I get disappointed at Blizzard.

Flying. In. Azeroth.
That's EPIC.

Also that Desolace is green now

i like old wow i dont see why they couldnt just go underground using the eye as a portal (its not but would be a good place to put a zone portal

TheSwift · **Joined:** Jun 2009 **Posts:** 87 **Location:**

flying in azeroth would be cool especially for lvling up mining and herbalism (lower prices???) but wtf are goblins and wolves? we should get vampires for horde? c'mon there are lots of quests involving goblins, is Blizzard remaking those quests? The new class combinations is a total bullshit that doesn't make any sense. Other content is really good but the bad stuff is REALLY BAD. And if you've watched the trailer, Azeroth is gonna look bad I guess, burned and stuff.

I can't wait to see Goblin's town

But honestly dont really like the "changes" happening to Azeroth...also feel bad for new players that are never gonna get to see the barrens,azshara and all those areas the way it was...

Also,if the Worgen's town is going to be near Silverpine(I suppose) won't that be a problem considering Undercity is really near =/

Hell yeah hunters!

Quote:

Hunter's mana is GONE!!!
Hunters now use focus, no longer care about intellect or mana regen.
Focus regenerates contunously, Steady shot improves the rate of getting focus bag.
Rogue energy comes back at a 10 / sec rate, Hunter focus comes back at 6/sec (12/sec with steady shot)
A shot costs 10 to 30 focus.
Hunters will have fewer cooldowns on abilities
Ammos will become an item, not a consumable.

They're prolly the ugliest playable race so they better get some good racials to get people to play them.

why would anyone want to be a worgan? they dont even seem to be able to change between forms... kinda lame, and their racials suck.
