At least Mr Sacco took the time to add multiple questions as to when Cataclysm is going to be released, wouldnt be the same giant wall of unanswered questions without them
Concerned Tauren Apr 19th 2010 5:12PM
I wanna know what happens to good old Cairne, it'd be awful if he accidentally slipped and fell off Thunder Bluff while crossing a bridge.
Wraithanne Apr 19th 2010 5:25PM
Yes it would be....tragic....if Garrosh had a similar....accident. Yes. Tragic...
Ztk Apr 19th 2010 6:18PM
moar lorz plz. seriously, i REALLY wanna know wat happens to Cairne, Thrall, Hellscream, ...(names nearly every other major character in game.) When I heard about Cairne getting offed y Hellscream and Thrall becoming Gaurdian I went insane and screamed at my screen "WAT ELSE!!!!!"
G_ScreamfromHell Apr 19th 2010 6:23PM
Yes, that would be most.... unfortunate.
Vankay Apr 19th 2010 8:54PM
What are you talking about? it would be awesome if that dumbass Garrosh got... oooh... *cough*
Yea, most... unfortunate...
But seriously, im dying to know what happens to Cairne. They just cannot off him, we met him in the barrens, that old guy that just smelled like wisdom, then he helped us in discovering kalimdor, we united forces and a new horde was formed... they just can't kill him, but if they do, i will rerrol alliance and dedicate every second of gameplay to kill Garrosh over and over for taking Cairne away.
Cairne!!!!
Wulfkin Apr 20th 2010 6:58AM
I would imagine that we will *see* him die in some kind of quest. It only makes sense, rather than someone going "oh and btw Cairne's dead". I would expect some kind of low-level quest where we uncover a plot of kill Cairne and manage to get there just in time to fail at saving him. Then we go back to garrosh to report this and he has shifty eyes.
Or something like that. What else are they going to do, put it in the cinematic?
dawnseven Apr 20th 2010 10:27AM
Right up front, excuse my near complete ignorance of alliance lore. I'm a horde girl though so that is where my interest lies and before now I've just kind of glanced over the majority of the alliance story. I'm working on it though! :)
I'm LOVING Anne's lore articles on Saturadays. They're fantastic. Just the trolls left I believe and then I imagine she's moving on to alliance. My question is though (and if you want to say "Hey noob read 'x!' " that's fine), what exactly is going to be the hub bub on the alliance side going into Cata? The horde has Thrall stepping down, Garrosh taking over, Cairne being killed, and people being evicted from Org I believe. So what will the strife be on the alliance side? All I've heard is that they're getting a new ally. Boo hoo. Will the alliance also being experiencing some turmoil? Have their been any spoilers as to what?
Randolyn Apr 19th 2010 5:14PM
I really want to see the artwork for the troll and worgen druid forms.
What does a worgen cat look like? Does it chase itself?
What in the world does a troll bear or moonkin look like?
Nagi Apr 19th 2010 10:00PM
Troll "cat form" NEEDS to be a raptor. There is no other acceptable alternative.
Raeenith Apr 19th 2010 10:25PM
I agree with Nagi. I hope they get new forms that are different from the other Druids. My brain can't compute a Worgen turning into a cat. Then again, Tauren (cows/minotaur) turn into cats. :P
Meg Apr 19th 2010 10:34PM
I hope troll cat form is like that baby lynx model that was circulated some time ago... TOO CUTE!

Is Sentry Totem a planned raid boss in Cataclysm is my question.
"Patch 4.0 was merely a set back!"
GrumblyStuff Apr 19th 2010 6:18PM
It'll be a pair of bosses named Sentries To and Tem for a troll instance/raid.
kdeselms Apr 19th 2010 5:17PM
I would really like to know why Blizzard feels the need to "fix" so many things that aren't broken.
Shifty Eyes _ Apr 19th 2010 5:29PM
@kdeselms
You don't question the Blizzard Gods, lest they nerf thee into oblivion
GrumblyStuff Apr 19th 2010 6:42PM
Got any examples?
Treeform? Sunder armor changes? Whirlwind and Divine Storm?
kia Apr 20th 2010 12:41AM
The game would become very stagnant if the only thing Blizzard did was "fix things that were broken".
Grinton Apr 19th 2010 5:20PM
I want to know more about the new hunter pets.
Also, there is still a huge disparity between the different races, do you have any idea if Blizzard is going to do anything else (other than the new class combos) to try and get some the lesser played races more face time?
