I dunno... sure, it makes sense that Grim Batol is much bigger than what we saw in the 5 man(considering the size of the mountain its built into too), and that we last saw Deathwing fighting above it, but i'll need more than this to confirm it.
I'm hoping for something unique, like an instanced SW or Orgrimmar under attack.

Kinda cool about the armor thing, but not if you have to have the older set in order to use the look.
I wouldn't mind rocking the shadowcraft set on my rogue, but no way in hell am I now going to relook for the parts.

I don't think so? IIRC, he was defeated at Grim Batol when the Demon Soul was shattered. Grim Batol was where he and the Blackmaw were basically raping Alex for eggs. Then he just disappeared. Until they revealed where he had been. I could be remembering wrong though.
However, Blizzard has reaaaalllllly screwed the pooch with him. Where is he? What is he doing? Doesn't he want to destroy everything? Why not just go on a rampage and set every zone on fire? He rarely shows up and doesn't seem like much of a threat anymore. Ragnaros feels like more of the main boss than Deathwing at this point. =/

I'm sure there's some stuff in Deepholm about his prison chains being there (just south of the temple?). I think they, er, adjusted the lore.
Kintaro said:
I think he's spending most of his time writing snotty messages on the official forums complaining about how Blizzard have nerfed his fire, which no longer destroys all life on earth for more than about 30 seconds.

Yeah, the next old god fight was pretty much the only thing I was seriously looking forward to in this expansion. No N'zoth = my unsubscrip... oh who am I kidding, I have nothing else to do with my life.

I just don't have the time to take WoW as seriously as I did back in the day. My raiding days are toast. But I still have my Gronnstalker set in the bank.
Gonna ROCK THAT ISH! I loved that set so much.
That and Tier 0 Paladin armor. Still my favorite. It would be nice if they had some database that tracked all your previous soulbound gear and just let you chose from that.
But it'll be fun farming old gear just for looks.

Isn't it obvious? Panda bad guys!
Kil'Jaeden and Sargaras are really the only ones left besides Old Gods. Which you really can't "kill" anyway.
Edit: Guess I did forget about Azshara and Future Nosdormu. (sp). To be honest though, after Cata, the less dragons, the better. They are boring as fuck now. Azshara means water zones which makes me throw up a little inside. =/

Change armor sounds awesome, let's just hope it doesn't cost me like 500G.
I'm surprised we aren't going to be fighting an old god at all this expansion (unless its either in 5 man form/not the main attraction in the Deathwing raid) given how closely they've been associated with Deathwing. No Azshara either, despite Blizzard initially pitching her as one of the main characters of the expansion. This combined with the change to 5 lvl increments instead of 10 and the Pandaria rumors has me believing Blizzard really wants to stretch out their plan for the narrative arc of the game far beyond what they had initially. This should have been the expansion to confront all of the remaining old gods and their allies and the next expansion should have had us going to Argus to finish off the Burning Legion, culminating in the end of WoW's portion of the Warcraft story. The Pandaren will feel like a filler episode after fighting The Lich King and Deathwing.
Running low on ideas, they might be, but this is actually a feature that really should have been in the game a while back. Other mmos have been doing it and with the promising competitor GW2 highlighting it as a feature, Blizzard really needs to make sure they are at least matching their opponents where it makes sense to do so.

Oh yeah... Azshara... i guess they also need to finish the whole "Hey, the Water Elemental Lord got kidnapped by the naga's giant octopus pet" story someday. If there is ever an Azshara expansion, he'll have to be there.
Seeing her in Darkshore was such a tease. And all she does is talking.
Deadly Cyclone said:
500g is literally free with how much gold people have these days. All my characters combined probably have 100k, and im sure lots of players have more than that.
Deadly Cyclone said:
What's 500G? My character is like level 70 Worgen Warrior, and I stopped playing probably a month after Cata came out, maybe two. I have over 1,000 gold on him. If a noobie like me could get that rich before even hitting cap, then you guys who are playing month in month out should have no problem with 500G.

Armour swap would have been nice when I was still playing.
Giantstalker will forever be my favourite armour for hunter purely for the massive nostalgia value. Oh god WoW was amazing back then (rose tinted glasses ahoy!)
Oh well.

Interesting. Even though I quit only a few months after Cata came out I figured I'd be excited when Deathwing finally showed up. But I'm not.
Guess I'm finally cured of the WoW Bug (until the next xpac anyway). So...bring on Warcraft 4! Time for another RTS, Blizz!

People have been complaining about this for years.Dexa said:
They had this all saved up for a rainy day (aka subs dropping).
Once that pic of the ethereals popped up, I started the process of collecting Dragonstalker. I'm not expecting it, but it would be super nice to just let you have access to older tiers, prior to cata, or up to tier 11 without having to own it. It could take a long time just to collect one set.

I started gathering the Judgement set on my new paladin already, and would just use it for social. If I can change any crappy 85 gear into that, I'll be very happy.
I wonder if they're going to reintroduce the tier 3 sets into the game somehow or just consider those a bonus for the few that got them.

Being able to change the skin of your gear = shit idea, I want to be able to just look at a character at be able to know if he has good or bad gear.
It'll also fuck up pvp, people are gonna have no idea if the dude they're about to engage is some random guy with no pvp gear, or someone in decked out arena gear...
