  1. i would love a grim batol raid in sod, since that area looks like it was supposed to be something big, plus with xal'atath(shadowy figure when you get the void shard in hillsbarad foothills) having big influence with players since phase 1 we might be sent there

  4. Wetlands and Darkshore were such nostalgic areas back when I was a dumb seven year old during vanilla. Wetlands had a banger soundtrack as well, and Menethil harbor was cool. Not as cool as the architecture in Theramore, but unlike Theramore, there were things you can do like quests. And fewer deserters harassing everyone.

  5. I know you mostly cover classic era wow stuff, but Modgud is one of the ones who had the blade Xal'atath which was introduced in legion… and may be making an appearance in SoD, but that's unconfirmed atm

  6. Makes me wonder if Season of Discovery will uncover more of Xal'ataths influence over the Dark Irons attack on Grim Batol. As she was involved in the curse according to the artifacts lore book in Legion. We have already seen hints of Xal'atath being present in vanilla WoW through the Blackfathom Depths content in Season of Discovery. And with her being the main antagonist of the upcoming new expansion for retail, my guess Blizzard is using Season of discovery as a way of showing her influence retroactively.

  7. It all makes sence, thanks for the video, idk how could i know that playing the game modern way, with questie or dungeon grind, even AI voiceover addon would be not enough to explain what's going on in the zone. Always been curious what happend in grim batol, this dwarf towers emerging from the mountains is major part of classic wow charm
