The Real Enemy May Not Be Sargeras?

  • The pillars of creation were the tools used by the titans to seal away the Old Gods.
    So as in the article it makes sense that their pawns send us out to find the pillars to "stop the Legion", once that job is done we will be fighting to keep the pillars out of the Old Gods hands (or tentacles, mouths, whatever limbs they have)

Not quite. The Pillars were used by the keepers to essentially forge Azeroth and allow it to become what it is now. The reason they are present in Legion is because the races of the Broken Isles used them to create the Temple of Elune and strengthen it, as well as seal the portal for the Burning Legion. We are hunting them now because the Old Gods would want the Legion's portals to be removed. The Old Gods hate the Legion just as much as we do, since eradication of everything by Sargeras includes eradication of the Old Gods.

  • Queen Azhara was created (from an Elven queen to a Naga) by N'Zoth
  • Xavius was created (from an Elf to a satyr) by N'Zoth
  • The Emerald Nightmare is created by N'Zoth 

Other than the Emerald Nightmare, there is no confirmation that N'zoth was the one whispering to Azshara as the explosion happened. It's just referenced as a very powerful entity. It's possible, for sure, but it's not 100%.

N'zoth didn't do anything to Xavius in his creation, it was Sargeras. Sargeras destroyed his body and tortured his spirit. He realised he could be useful and returned him to life as a Satyr.

Also there's a heartbeat in Karazhan specifically the crypts as most people would probably know. Going to karazhan in 7.1, i tend to read into stuff too much that i know nothing about so the heartbeat could of already been answered for all i know, just a thought that it could be related.

Definitely something else to consider. It can't be coincidence that we're going to Kara. 

There are so many people it could be though. Medivh/Sarg tortured many people down there.

i feel like they are looking to much into it on certain things.

 

  • "The boy-king serves at the master's table. Three lies he will offer you."

probably refers to God-King Skovald and his inflated and delusional ego, The 3 lies he tells himself and offers to other Valajar to get them to join are; 1. he is a god, 2. he is a king, and 3. that he is worthy.

"At the hour of her third death, she will usher in our coming".

This could be a emotional reference to Jaina, where she "died" after losing something important to her:
1. Arthas
2. Destruction of Theramore

Maybe Kalec dies in the expansion, probably when the legion infiltrates Dalaran to steal the Pillars.

I think this refers to Lord Jorach Ravenholdt from rogue orderhall or lord kur'talos ravencrest in black rook hold.

What do you think?

Not even slightly.  It fits better and makes more sense if it's Elisande or Azeroth.  Like the OP said, Sylvanas has already died three times and if they kill the Queen of the Undead for real, where does that leave Forsaken players?

It's Khadgar or Medivh.

Can it be a physical death instead? :(

Most hated character right here. I despise Jaina.

I just feel like it's too simple. They're evidently trying to pose a riddle, so why make it so easy?

Personally, I'd love to find out that this is somehow linked to Anzu and the prophecy of the Raven God.

Sometimes "easy" can be some of the hardest puzzles to solve.

In terms of each of the whispers that Il'gynoth provides I can see how each of them are relevant IF they're true. I'll provide my opinion on what I think each of them means below!

"The boy-king serves at the master's table. Three lies he will offer you." Likely refers to Anduin's new reign, the lies are yet to come I guess.

"Flesh is his gift. He is your true creator." Is the only one I'm not entirely sure about. Possibly Sargeras being our true creator?

"The king of diamonds has been made a pawn." As already mentioned refers to King Magni's return.

"Five keys to open our way. Five torches to light our path." Could hint that we're actually gathering the pillars of creation and delivering them right to our enemy.

"Her heart is a crater, and we have filled it." Likely refers to Jaina seeing as Theramore, her home town, has been obliterated and ever since the event she has used hate to guide her actions.

"To find him, drown yourself in a circle of stars." Could be referring to Velen seeing as he wants to return to his home planet, Argus. The stars being mentioned could be the Naaru.

"The lord of ravens will turn the key." I think is directed at Khadgar, the wielder of Atiesh. Seeing as one of the other comments Il'gynoth makes is about the pillars of creation and Khadgar is who we deliver them to, these two lines could be related.

And, finally, "At the hour of her third death, she will usher in our coming." I'm sure is referirng to Sylvanas. Her first death was to Arthas, her second was her suicide after Arthas's downfall and her third is yet to come so it would seem. Given there is already quite the storyline going on with her and Genn it will be interesting to see how this unfolds. On top of that she has been seen communing with Helya and trying to steal power from Eyir to try to gain immortality.

Sorry for the lengthy post, just giving my input on what I've interpreted from each of the whispers that Il'gynoth gives you.

Definitely true, I think that's a fair point.

This almost certainly refers to the Curse of Flesh from Yogg.

If you have read any of the books at all especially the war of the ancients trilogy then you already should know what's coming.

I mean, I have read all of the Warcraft novels/comics/encyclopedias etc., but I'm not really sure what you're referencing.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
