I love patch trailers, and this one is no exception. Get ready for Patch 4.1: Rise of the Zandalari, with this video showing what the Zandalari are up to, the recruiting of the troll tribes, and the lament of the troll cities of Zul'Farrak and Zul'Drak falling. Check it out, get hyped, and get ready for the fight against the Prophet Zul and the Zandalari. WoW Patch 4.1 is on the PTR, and WoW Insider has all the latest news for you -- from previews of the revamped Zul'Aman and Zul'Gurub to new valor point mechanics and new archaeology items.
Deffinetly, although this trailer made me realize something:
We never see a single troll mouth move. This is because the troll models (and gnome models) were rather rushed when the original WoW went out the door, making them unfit for this quality of video. Of the speaking parts in all official WoW videos featuring trolls (2.3 and 4.1) Zul'jin, the Prophet, and Vol'jin all have their mouths covered.
I know they've got a lot on their plates, but perhaps the blizzard model-design team could perhaps come up with a troll model that doesn't have a dislocated shoulder, speaks in a natural-looking way, and doesn't have every single shoulder-slot item clip through the neck every time we attack/cast/mount/dance/wave/salute/fish/jump/kiss/chicken/train/shoot/sit/sleep.
I rolled a troll shamen just to troll the horde, but after seeing beta Vol 'jin tell Garrosh off, i been thinking the Trolls are the coolest horde race and not tauren, love those peaceful guys but compared to the badassness of Vol jin, none can compare. Been playing my troll more to see the Horde side of this patch. Here's to a tauren themed patch
Yeah but Cairne fought Garrosh in a duel to death and only lost because Garrosh was tricked into poisoning his blade instead of blessing it. Cairne would have won but the poison from a cut very insignificant killed him. The Tauren are still BA.
Come t' de dark side bruddah da voodoo, it be callin' t' ya. Don't be hidin' from de powa, it be yours for da takin' da darkspear welcome ya wit' open arms, and some very special voodoo, if ya follow my t'inkin'
Do you lose respect for people who go to McDonalds if they eat the food? Well, you may have a point, but that's how Hakkar is 'summoned' this time, as a big ol' Troll God Sammich.
I've been away from Wow for a little while so I'm super confused. Aren't the Zandalari the ones who wanted you to defeat Hakkar? This seems like a crazy personality change for them. I know Blizz loves troll raids, and I think they're neat too, but did we really have to make *all* trolls except the Darkspear evil?
Yeah they sent you to kill him and now they've been retcon'd because blizzard is out of ideas and for some reason half of WoW players have a Troll fetish.

Damn it, mibu.work1, you broke my combo! Now go out and watch Ghostbusters, for the love of Bill Murray!

Extinct my ass, they're everywhere and blizzard has been shoving Troll instances down our throat since day 1.
Bleh.

Get Hype ;)

This is awesome! Hakkar coming back is lame though, I lost my respect for the Zandalari if they really are going to summon him.

Is that who that thing at the end was?
Durenas Apr 25th 2011 8:04PM
Rossi's right, Hakkar is Jindo's extra value meal.
