Who Will Be the Final Boss of Battle for Azeroth?

Recommended Posts

Im really curious where this whole dragon aspect is going.

Them flying over the ruins of lordaeron on the login screen is...  highly intriguing.  Now Ebonhorn is coming into play...

Its just too much.  Im almost wondering if its them or leading into a dragon expansion.

They'd have to retcon the whole "Age of Mortals" nonsense from the end of cataclysm where the dragons were supposedly de-powered of their titan abiities.

 

...though, that's already pretty sketchy, we're still zipping around time travelling with Chromie, the Blue Dragons on Broken isle are still watching over the leylines, Ysera died but that was only after a pillar of creation was corrupted and used as a weapon against her, etc.

No doubt. I, however, am not one of them.

I was mostly s#@tposting that person, as they had created an account soloely for saying "Sylvanas. Duh." like typical Alliance die hard behavior.

Good job with your contribution of 70 posts. I main horde.

In the end of the final raid we will fight Thrall to protect our warchief, duh.

But jokes aside I tend to think about knifu becoming the central piece of the last patch.

As viralsack said...there's plenty of Horde players who would like to see the end of Sylvanas.

And after 8.2 she has no more Horde leaders in her corner.  She's evil and if we're going to go with the notion that the Horde aren't inherently evil (even if the "organization" was spawned from evil) they have to root her out even if they never even truly know how evil she is, because she's deceived them all.

But she isn't going to be a boss to be defeated this expansion.

They killed Varian and Vol'jin.  They're bringing back Green Jeebus.  Jaina had her time in the spotlight.  It should be Sylvannas.  But it's probably either option 1 or 2 ?

For warlords there was actually a toy that updated with content patches that was a conversation between Archimonde and Kil’jaeden. The last piece of this conversation was basically Archimonde saying he would do it himself since Kil’jaeden’s plan failed. That toy was the Burning Legion Communicator I believe. So they eluded to Archimonde being a final boss long before he was.

We were talking about expansion titles referring to the final bosses of that same expansion. I don't really know how you jumped from that to a toy...

I think we will be eluded into a fight with Sylvanas but she won't be the final boss.  Like we may start out with a first phase attempt to strike her down but she pulls an Ace from her sleeve, summons an entity to fight in her place, then escapes into the unknown.  Probably something along the same scenario with Jaina Proudmore in BoD Raid.  We won't actually get to kill her but instead get to fight her for a short duration.

As far as 'entity' I believe it will be death oriented but not something we have not seen yet in the game a possible new manifestation or something in relations to the Shadowlands.   I don't think this will be entirely Old God related but in a small contribution to get things rolling.

As of the current storyline(s) in BFA we may see an Old God rise from the depths but I am not 100% sure it will be N'zoth but there might be a connection in what Magni does after the events of the new Raid in 8.2; I think he will unknowingly will let loose something horrid into the world of Azeroth but believing it was in good intentions to save the planet.

That's just my 2 cents.

      Savage Ebony Battle Turtle is an upcoming promotion mount coming in Patch 10.2.7.
      The mount will be available in some sort of Promotion in the future.

      The new War Within Allied Races was added to the Alpha today and we already have a full look at not only all their customization options, but their dances as well, courtesy of MrGM! You can check out the Earthen's racial abilities here if you missed them earlier. 
      Let's start with the more dynamic feature, with both male and female dances:
      And then there's big amount of customization options, as well as a size comparison with regular dwarves:

      So, are we liking the new Allied Race overall? More than actual dwarves?

      Here's a really cool possibility for the War Within, as a very subtle and mildly mysterious comment from Executive Producer and Vice President for WoW, Holly Longdale, may be hinting at our Warband characters getting a lot more involved in our travels! 
      First spotted by UlthansWrath, Longdale came up to Taliesin & Evitel at the recent London War Within Alpha press event and had a short chat about the Warband screen, when she casually said "wouldn't it be cool if those were the characters you took as your followers in your Follower Dungeons?" After the obvious confirmation from Taliesin and Evitel that, yes, yes it would be cool, she just said "hm" and that was the end of the conversation.
      Obviously this isn't any sort of official confirmation, but considering this is a really awesome idea, it seems likely Blizzard are at the very least discussing it, if not already working on it.

      The Warband system is already great, and this would add a lot to it for players that choose to go solo into dungeons, as it would give them even more motivation to get some great characters in their Warband - even if it was just a cosmetic option.
      So, what do you think, will we be seeing this feature when the War Within launches?

      Affliction is getting plenty of changes today as well, with Blizzard detailing the reasoning behind certain choices.
      Affliction (Source)
      Greetings Warlocks,
      Today, we have various Core and Affliction tree changes hitting the Alpha. We want to take a moment to go a bit more in depth as to what certain changes were made and why. As a refresher, here are the goals for our Core and Afflictions that we posted last week along with some additional goals that we can dig into here.
      Class
      Ensure each capstone is interesting and exciting. Reduce the amount of throughput talents, to free up utility choices. Reduce the number of ranks for talents that don’t warrant multiple ranks. Affliction
      Address the tuning of Malefic Rapture in single-target and multi-target situations. Reduce complexity and the amount of active buttons that contribute to it. Erase the need to choose between a single-target or multi-target profile by adding more adaptability and flexibility. While we cannot go over every change here, we’d like to get a bit more detailed than last week’s update and explain some of the bigger changes coming in this build.
      Class Tree Throughput
      We’re removing a lot of throughput talents from the class tree to allow warlocks to pick up more utility without feeling forced to take mandatory talents to be competitive. These talents aren’t compelling options when placed against utility as they will always be the right answer to have. This allows us to move that power into the specialization trees and tailor throughput-centric talents to be specific to that specialization’s gameplay.
      Malefic Rapture
      In addition to becoming baseline for Affliction, we are introducing new talents that will help Malefic Rapture become the go-to spender for both single-target and multi-target situations. This should also shift Seed of Corruption to being a means to apply Corruption to multiple targets rather than what you spam in dungeons. In addition, we are redesigning Siphon Life to be friendlier to Affliction’s rotation and expect that its new design will make it easier to optimize Malefic Rapture.
      Affliction’s Adaptability
      While we do want Affliction warlocks to have a preferred talent setup for single- versus multi-target situations, we don’t want it to feel like they are powerless if they are in the opposite situation. By focusing on Malefic Rapture being Affliction’s main spender and removing talents that are only valuable in multi-target situations (Soul Flame, Soul Swap, Doom Blossom, etc.), we’re hoping that the Affliction tree feels less punishing to fill out.
      Is This It?
      Not at all. We expect to make changes based on feedback and our own playtesting. We want to get the ball rolling on changes we knew we want to make, so we could start the discussion early on and make adjustments before The War Within launches.
      Thank you all for the continued discussions and we look forward to your feedback!
      And here are the full changes from the development notes:
