The Brokers can travel freely between worlds, pretend to serve the ‘Purpose’, and want the same thing the Jailer does… Who are they, really?

Fantastic vid, more like these pls
Yikes, I haven't seen Bellulars videos for a few weeks. Looks like you put on a few pounds/stones there. And yes I'm body shaming him.
"No connection" >listed an entire array of direct connections just before
We know that the void boyz are waging war with somebody unknown through the mage order hall quest lines. Possibly the brokers.
Xy'mox mentions "The warp" which could be lazy writing meaning the void or the nether but possibly something new entirely.
If they can capture a powerful Na'ruu, why would they even bother to wait around for us to get what they want? I guess even a powerful Na'ruu is still not as strong as the Jailer? I don't know how they add up. I do think the Brokers are powerful, but maybe their true might/power is not really a power at all, but their ability to be truly Neutral between the cosmos and have their hands in all the pots and their infinite knowledge/artifacts.
Both the Ethereals and the Brokers appear to be pure energy. Maybe the "mechanical" broker body is what a dead etheral needs to pilot?
Just because they have a naaru doesnt mean they capturted it themselves. They appear as traders in game. Could have paid someone else to do it, or found a weakened naru/one already imprisoned., or used stolen/traded for technology.
I’ve seen them saying some realllllllly sketchy dialogue to each other in Oribos!!!
I'm calling it, there's a plane of Greed where greedy merchants go. AKA Goblins, Ethereals etc, where factions/cartels vie for power via various ways like Maldraxxus.
As for the Sepulcher, the one in Maldraxxus makes sense, as the Jailer is looking for the lost Primus items and designs, might just be a coincidental name but heh.
I dont play wow. Havent in a long time. Played vanilla private servers for a few years and most likely would be still if blizz didnt do classic and destroy the vanilla private scene. That said. Iv keep current with the story thanks to you tube. And i just cant imagine being a new player and trying to make any sense of this story blizz haz got going here.
Maybe Goblins become Brokers in death
Maybe in the same way noble paladins go to Bastion, great warriors go to Maldraxxus, druids close to nature go to Ardenweald, then players who focus on collecting (mounts, toys, transmogs, recipes etc) go to wherever the Brokers reside.
You forget to mention that kel'thuzard uses the Cartel Ba to bring him the domination dagger in order to bring the jailors plans into fruition in the necrolord campaign, they directly work with kel'thuzard and the jailor
Whatcha buyin stranger?
sounds communist tbh
What if it's as simple as The Brokers are dead Ethereals? Surely, they need to die but their "Purpose" is preserved after Death [ultimately] takes them.
they dont trust her cuz communists dont trust normal people
people betrayed the nazi's…so…she is good then
I remember when Ethereals in TBC were supposed to expand our universe…..still waiting.
if you do the necro compaign you will see the cartel is bad and working with the jailor
Was waiting for a video like this. I always enjoy listening to snatches of their conversations. It is very intriguing.
Azeroth is the most powerful world soul right? Sargeras wanted to destroy it. Everyone wants it. The Other leaders stole something and imprisoned him. The hole in his chest? I think it's for his soul. AZEROTH.
so the brokers are prolly the ones that brought the stuff out from the shadowlands
I can't believe you didn't even reference how the brokers and the arbiter have a similar machine like aesthetic…like soul bound to a mechanical body. To me they look absolutely related, but not of the same make. I've actually wondered if they're in Oribos cause they want the Arbiter. I mean, she's seen infinite lives and she can judge all of those lives to send to their respective afterlives. She like a super computer + an internet of data x1000!
what if the brokers are related to the arbiter?
Bellular always has to squeeze 'lifelands' into every lore video.. I always have, and always will hate that name. XD
I think the Ethereals and Brokers are extension of the same thing.
Stichyard has a quest to use a broker portal to obtain an item, the portal takes you to some part of argus that is frozen over.
you and Nobbel should do a speculation video together
The sepulchre they are after is the room in which azeroths soul is kept
The Brokers are the Ferengi.
What if the Ethereals ARE the brokers? As far as I remember the Transmogger says something along the lines of this world being unable to hold their shape or something, though Im not sure if I remember that correctly. So The Ethereals are just how we see the Brokers bodies in the physical world
I love the beings like the brokers, etherials and tortillan seekers they're so interesting and cool
Maybe the jailers body is there and he needs it to rez just like us.
I really like the art style of the broker's soulfirehead thing. It's a nice 2d design that contrasts in the 3d world
I think one patch we'll go to the Broker's realm
Brokers are exact opposite of Naaru. They are the Void based beings that value freedom of choice etc. Naaru wage war in the name of "the greater good" while Brokers seek trade and profit
Naaru force themselves on every race. They want to imprint themselves on everyone. Brokers want to trade with anyone willing. They love your culture and items.
Naaru wage war even in Shadowlands, seeking to destroy stuff as usual. Brokers are present there but only as traders and keepers (of knowledge and artefacts).
I think the Brokers might be trying to take advantage of the Arbiter's incapacitation to hotwire Oribos and redirect the flow of souls to their own purposes.
"I can confirm lm literally pulling shit outta my arse!''
my guess the sepulcher contains the jailers heart 😀
Total Tin-Foil-Hat moment, I think the Arbiter may be a broker-like being, (based on her non-corporeal form within her dress and mask, etc). It could be that the brokers used some kind of weapon to break her so they could escape and or make some kind of deal for power. They know we are trying to fix it/her, which is why they are hurrying to complete their plans. They want to stop us, which is why they went to the maw but Ve'Nari felt like we were a better lucrative plan and she betrayed them. That could be why they are looking for her as well, and trying to get us to give up her location. It would also explain why they are in every land we go to, they are gathering information from us, under the guise of offering us trinkets.
Thoughts?
They want the little lion
I think this video is a drinking game. Every time the word “spooky” is said, you drink. I’m drunk now and am convinced the Brokers are going to try to kill us all and Sylvannas will save us by sacrificing herself to kill the Jailer and let us escape with Ve’nari to the cosmos.
Now that you mention it I have little doubts we will be able to go to their realm in the future there are a few closed gateways in Oribos.
Well you did it Bellular, I'm finally interested in the lore.
So, brokers simply took Sun Miqo'te naming conventions from FF14.
Also, remember what Bwonsamdi says in De Other Side, "Brokers be lookin' for power, too… all kinda power."
If the next expac is cosmos related I really hope we get ethereals as a neutral playable race I've wanted that ever since BC lol
Maybe there is a secret war going on between the brokers and the ethereals
We don't actually defeat Artificer, she teleports away once she reaches 0% health. She's still alive and will likely appear later.
