Scribes can make steamy romance novels. This makes me very happy for Arkail's future.

MASSIVE plot spoilers on MMO-Champion. Don't look if you really don't want to know!

Just to add to this it's a DEATH spoiler, so seriously don't look unless you wanna know.

Attention the MASSIVE SPOILERS are updating on MMO Champion as the night progresses.

And oh dear god... I am just... I am LOVING several of these spoilers, whilst others are a little head-scratching... I can think of a few ways for how some of them could work but...

Again these are MASSIVE SPOILERS... which I really wish I could talk about with someone... anyone... which I will now put down in a spoiler of my own. A spoiler inside a spoiler, inside a spoiler just to be on the safe side. If you do NOT want to be spoiled, do NOT click my spoiler link below.

I am being serious here, below is four spoiler links before the spoilers themselves... do NOT say you weren't warned. I hold no responsibility for anyone who takes umbridge with reading them despite the warnings of MASSIVE SPOILERS BELOW.

On a different note, thoughts on the Beast Master Artifact weapon? Can't say I'm a huge fan of it being a massive cannon... glad I can transmog it to look like a bow.

Spoiler: show

ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO READ THESE MASSIVE SPOILERS?[spoiler]LAST CHANCE TO TURN BACK FROM THESE MASSIVE SPOILERS.[spoiler]Alright then, you have been warned. Here are my thoughts on the MASSIVE SPOILERS, or at least some of them[spoiler]First off, Calia Menethil is making an appearance. Arthas' little sister. Oh sweet mother of god yes! Nice little thread to tidy up there since she was thrown to the wind pretty much during the Arthas book and any other mentions have only been just that... mentions.

And Broxigar is turning up as well!!! Along with an Image of Aegwynn and Visions/Echoes of Medivh... the two most heavy hitting Guardians ever and both have dealt with the Legion before

The Lich King himself Bolvar is getting in on this action, and... I don't know whether this was him or the Legion, but OUR Grom is making an appearance as an undead boss in something. That should be... interesting to see how that works out.

And apparently Llane Wrynn, Varian's daddy is making a Boss appearance as well... Violet Hold maybe responsible for these last two shenanigans? Since Anduin Lothar's appearing as well... Suffice to say from this NPC list alone so far, Legion is bringing out some seriously heavy hitters to combat the Legion invasion.

Then the elekk in the room... Sylvanas as Acting Warchief in Vol'jins absence... oh dear god this is going to create a LOT of RP drama which I shall strive to appear for regularly On my orc or my Forsaken, probably both

Oh and Varian dies as well... but tbh, I kinda expected that from the Cinematic we got shown at Blizzcon. The words, the music, the situation... it kinda just set itself up for it to happen really. What will be interesting to see is how the now King Anduin handles the Legion situation whilst also dealing with Sylvanas' Horde...

In answer to ONE of the spoilerific spoilers.

Spoiler: show

Why excitment over one of Knaaks badly written characters? Never understood why people fangasm over Brioxigar. Give us more Saurfang action, that's where it's at!

PS most of Knaaks characters are badly written in one way or another. In case of complaints.

Thank you! My thoughts exactly.


...that aside though, I am really excited for Legion! Looks awesome so far!

[Kogra Windwatcher]

Not getting my hopes up though, WoD also looked amazing before it was launched. Then they scrapped a lot of things.

^ -THIS- is why I'm not getting excited about Legion. I have a lot of things that actually kind of scare me:

- How much of the promised poopoo will Blizzard scrap because "Not enough time" or "We never promised this."
- How much content will there be apart from leveling. (No, apexis crystal dailies are not content... They weren't even accompanied with actual story and what not.)
- How much phasing will there be in the Shattered Isles with this new scaling level system ( If they even keep their promise on the scaling leveling zones.) Will the Shattered Isles even be RP'able?

These are just a few things that make me go: Eh... I can wait. I do believe that Blizzard will try to go all-out on this expac since.. well.. looking at the rapid decline in subscribers during WoD for... reasons? (lel blizz sux) if they release another piss-poor expac, it'll be the end of WoW.

Of course I hope the expansion will be as promising as Blizzard is making it sound like now, but I'm not holding my breath ( Because quite frankly.. I'd probably die seeing we still need to wait until the summer *nod*)
