Not talking much about the Deathwing encounter, only the other less-interesting stuff like the Transmogrification and Void Storage features. Though I do wish I heard some more info of the new location of the Darkmoon Faire.<\/p>\n<p>Now comes the time where we have all of this info from Wowhead datamining 4.3 and giving it to us, and turn it into wondering how things are going to work, and start to theorize. But that&#8217;s all we really got right now; what <em>might<\/em> happen instead of what <em>will<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>We have a fairly good idea about the End Time dungeon now. Five bosses. Two are random between runs. But that&#8217;s all we (well, I) know about it. We know nothing else of the other two dungeons, including the raid. Because the &#8216;Well of Eternity&#8217; dungeon hasn&#8217;t hit the PTR yet. They&#8217;re still working on it.<\/p>\n<p>But what they <strong>still<\/strong> will not mention is why is Deathwing impaled ontop of the tower. The notes of the Dragon Soul raid mention about his preferred outcome for Azeroth, End Time, that he too won&#8217;t survive it. Does something kill him?<br \/>\nNow I think it could be Murozond who killed him. This dragon can fuck with time, so he could of possibly teleported Deathwing there so he would be impaled. It&#8217;s likely he also caused the echos of the four former heroes to appear in Dragonblight, since the notes of End Time mentioned all four are &#8220;time-twisted&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Now, we get to what we don&#8217;t know but guess what could happen. Such as the raid. What we know is 6\/8 boss fights will be in Dragonblight, and the final two will be all Deathwing. But what we don&#8217;t know is how is boss 7, which is on Deathwing&#8217;s back, will be done. We know that the fight will be over Azeroth, but will non-raiders see it? Or will this be a gigantic phased version of Azeroth? No one knows. There&#8217;s also so very little info on the fight itself. It&#8217;s said players will be attempting to remove Deathwing&#8217;s elementium plating, and about tentacles showing up. But is that it? Wouldn&#8217;t he try to fly through trees to knock players off? He&#8217;s going to try to survive.<\/p>\n<p>As for the final fight, according to a video I watched, they say that the fight will be outside of the Maelstrom, with what&#8217;s left of Deathwing trying to get back up. Did we chop off his wings during the last fight?<\/p>\n<p>But the biggest thing I wonder is about the three new dragon mounts. These mounts, as I said before, look like younger versions of Alexstrasza. This is going to screw lore up the ass. Some people theorize that the Dragon Soul weakens all the aspects to the point they die at the end, and this is the end result. But if this is true, where are the younger versions of the other aspects?<br \/>\nOthers think Alexstrasza secretly had dragons that look like her younger self so adventurers can use them to help her protect Azeroth (since she can&#8217;t be everywhere). This makes more sense to me, and it&#8217;s something she would do to make sure Azeroth remains safe.<br \/>\nWhat&#8217;s interesting is there was a video that shows these dragons being similar to the Sandstone Drake. As in, another type of dragon form. How is lore going to fit into this? Seeing something that looks like Alexstrasza in Goldshire, but actually isn&#8217;t (but will be ironic due to the server name), will seriously screw up lore. This is why I say the second theory seems more true.<\/p>\n<p>And here&#8217;s another burning question (pun not intended). What will happen after Deathwing dies? Who will be the new Earth-Warder? A few say Thrall does, but others say it&#8217;s unlikely (since he&#8217;s not a dragon).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blizzard and Wowhead have been hush hush lately about the 4.3 patch.
