Light, Void and More Dragon Isles: the Rest of the 10.0 "Leaks"

Recommended Posts

63653-patch-100-the-next-wow-expansion-s
 

The season of "leaks" continues, although calling them leaks with a straight face is disingenuous, as pretty much all of them are almost certainly fake, but that doesn't mean they're not entertaining or that they don't have some good ideas hidden inside, which is why we're taking a look at them. The "real or not" aspect was especially made moot after we recently took a look back at all the pre-Shadowlands leaks and we can now clearly see none of them were even close, and that many, many of them are basically just being repeated with these 10.0 ones. So with all that in mind, let's see what players came up with! You can check out some previous leaks we've covered here and here.

Personally my favorite thing about the leaks is the "this is why it's a legit leak" part of it, where someone is pretending to be an ex-developer, someone's cousin or a dev's father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate, so I'll be adding those parts in as well, where present.

1. The Light and Void

I'll be bundling all the similarly themed ones together, starting with the less prevalent ones.

Rise of the High Exarch

  • Very little info - Yrel-themed, new zones on Azeroth and Draenor, new race Ogres.

Light and Shadow

  • Players choose Light or Void and get visual changes to spells and abilities.
  • Torghast like training grounds with old dungeon bosses and similar.
  • The Light invades through the Sunwell (what?), Alleria unleashes the Void in Stormwind as a response.
  • New raid in... the Dragon Isles. (Yep, this one is exploding with originality.)
     

2. More Dragons! And Isles!

The Dragon Isles are the bulk of the "leaks" as you'd expect.

Return of the Dragon Isles

  • "I was a dev on WoW until just last week - I've been with Blizz for over a decade and I've ALWAYS wanted to do this... here is the next expansion."
  • Originally scheduled to be revealed at BlizzCon 2021 and then BlizzConline 2022, now a stand-alone reveal in March
  • Zovaal's attack uncovers the isles.
  • Ancient dragons unaffiliated with the dragonflights, Blood Dragons are the villains and are trying to birth the World Soul, they see other life as beneath them (including the other dragons). Shattered Peaks raid.
  • Player housing in Teldrassil and Undercity, new profession carpentry related to it.
  • New race and class, 1 dragonscale gear slot with new abilities for each color.

The Final Titan

  • Jailer's attack sees Emerald Dream collapsing into our reality.
  • Many revamped zones, Dragon Isles, new capitals in Nordrassil (A) and Lordaeron (H).
  • No new race or class, 2 new raids, Stratholme's Barricade, Heart of Elunaria.
  • New class customizations: Emerald Dream druid forms, Chronomancy spell effects for mages, Dark Ranger spell effects for hunters, elemental forms for Shamans.
  • Path of the Aspects for new abilities.
  • Living World / Dreaming World events.

On Shifting Tides

  • "All my information has come from blizzard developers that have walked out during the class action lawsuit that has transpired last year and through the beginning of this one. Due to the sensitive nature of these employees' no disclosure agreements, I am unable to give names of these unsung heroes that has bestowed this knowledge upon me. I'm simply a secretary that happened to be at the right place at the right time."
  • (This person claims not to know who the next Arbiter is, so let's directly move this to the "made up" pile. It is the biggest one of them, with a lot of effort put in though.)
  • New class Scoundrel, with a Bard spec. Wrath of the Creators raid.

The Realm of Life

  • Elune themed, Tyrande on the cover.
  • Necromancer class, new race/class combos.
  • Two Dragon Isles and two emerald Dream zones

The Dragonmire

This one actually isn't a leak at all, as the creator didn't even try to pretend, but it's a nice logo, so why not check it out!

Flight of the Dragon Isles

  • New class Talonguard with 4 specs. Dragonsworn Covenant-like system, but you want to work with all 5.
  • 2 raids: 1 temple where we make a new aspect (I actually like this idea a lot), 1 Scarlet Crusade themed.

Flight of the Aspects

  • Infinite Dragonflight pre-pach invasion, summoning old bosses to fight
  • Dragonsworn class with 4 specs: Life-Binder (Fire/healer), Destroyer (Earth, Fire/DPS), Awakened (Nature/DPS), Timeless (Time magic/tank)
  • Emerald Dream as an endgame zone.
  • Players join Dragon Flights and gather Aspect Power.
  • Dragon whistle like the one fro Legion but with a different dragon picking you up based on flight.
  • "Originally gonna be Dawn of the Aspects after the novel but was changed after someone pointed out DoA stood for Dead on Arrival."

 

And I'll leave you with the most likely leak of them all, something you just KNOW is going to happen at some point, even if not in 10.0:

These are so obviously false.     It's become obvious that if Sylvannas isn't dominating the storyline somewhere, somehow it's fiction.

Some of these look like a rehash of post-BfA leaks, people were "leaking" Light vs Void expansion back then as well. There is also a surprising lack of Tinkers!

      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.
