The Dreadlords and Sire Denathrius: New 9.1 Cutscene

Recommended Posts

55215-remornia-just-wont-die.jpg
 

It's been a while since we visited one of the more popular and long running Shadowlands theories surrounding Sire Denathrius and the Dreadlords, but patch 9.1 delves into that, and while we don't learn absolutely everything that's going on, we do get some clarity. Spoilers ahead.

There was a new cutscene in this past week's PTR round that added the final missing piece to the story, with the final outcome of the Dreadlords "sudden" presence in the Shadowlands being shown. Now we've known about his for quite a while now from the PTR, so we'll take a look at the entire quest line being played out by LestTV, but the latest and final addition to it is in the second video below, and it slots in at the 8:28 mark of the first video.

 


Soooooo, there we have it. Actual in-game cutscene definitive confirmation that Denathrius was indeed behind most of the main Warcraft plot so far! What is less clear is whether the Jailer was behind him pulling the strings (which seems the most likely, as Mal'ganis refers to the "game" reaching its end soon) or if we'll get a double twist and see Denathrius survive to be the real villain going forward, even beyond Shadowlands, the one behind basically the entirety of the Warcraft story. A very interesting thing to note there is that supposedly Blizzard didn't mean for Denathrius to survive his Castle Nathria encounter, but after seeing the voice actor and character designs, decided to keep him around. But now that we know that it may have been his plan all along, perhaps those comments were mere misdirection as well?

What I'm saying is Blizzard are Dreadlords, obviously.

Since they have both male and female models, could it be possible that we'll get playable Dreadlords in the future? They even have some customization options

Reminds me of a video from taliasin&evitel during bfa

so deep down in the ocean lies an ancient evil and the big question is

will it be horde or alliance

since bfa was all about the faction war


afaik blizzard said in one of there first dev interviews about shadowlands they dont intend to include more allied races so far and if they do only if it makes sense

and since we are leaving the shadowlands after we are done with the jailer the rift will possible be closed lore wise same as with argus and the pantheon because we are not supose to be there and the shadowlands are another reality in the cosmos so we are definitly not ment to be there

 

want my tauren rogue first btw

Unlikely, due to wings and their model also seems to be made for specific armor. Too unique to be playable.

That being said, Mal'Ganis looks and sounds rather different. Maybe it's a different voice actor or just some filter.

      Solozerro has defeated Mythic Garrosh alone in MoP Remix! Congrats to the amazing feat that took months of dedication to accomplish!
      In an emotional tribute to a friend who passed away during the transition between World of Warcraft's Wrath of the Lich King and Cataclysm expansions, one dedicated player has fulfilled a long-standing promise to leave their mark in the game's history.
      "I promised her I would make a name for myself in WoW history, and today, I can finally say I've done this in her honor," Solozerro said.
      This accomplishment was the result of several evenings of dedicated attempts, each preceded by a week of rigorous farming. The process spanned multiple weeks, with each attempt lasting about 15 minutes.
      The player faced significant challenges, particularly with the Y’Shaarj adds during Garrosh Hellscream’s Empowered Whirlwind phase. "You need a high DPS check just for those adds," Solozerro explained.
      Back when the fight was nearly impossible to solo as a DPS, Solo had to do it in tank specialization to avoid fight resets due to mind control, which significantly impacted their damage output.
      Despite these obstacles, the player remained steadfast. "In total, I collected over 1.5 million threads on my cloak," they said, underscoring the extent of their efforts.

      Even the recent nerfs to Garrosh Hellscream posed a unique challenge. "I overslept and when I woke up and heard about the nerfs, I was sure someone would have tried it. During the fight, I still had adds up, but luckily, I managed to meet the DPS check to avoid the Empowered Whirlwind."
      This achievement not only honors a friend's memory but also serves as an inspiration to the WoW community. "These changes will affect a lot and might actually push more people to try it," the player reflected.
      Here’s the solo video! We want to congratulate Solozerro once again and express how thrilled we are to have been part of this incredible journey!
      Solozerro's journey has come to an end today with 24 days of MoP Remix remaining! The player has soloed Mythic Garrosh after the recent raid nerfs, nearly 1 months after soloing the Paragons of Klaxxi.

      As of the War Within pre-patch, Alysrazor in the Firelands raid is bugged, preventing players from getting the Flametalon of Alysrazor mount.
      Blizzard made various updates to flying in the War Within pre-patch, and a possible side-effect could be tied to Alysrazor not leaving her spawn location when you engage her in the raid.
      Hopefully, Blizzard will soon release a fix for the issue. Until then, don't bother soloing the Firelands!
