When you’ve performed via the WoW Dragonflight Dracthyr class beginning zone, you’ll have realized that the MMORPG‘s latest race of bipedal dragons have some fairly nasty beef with Neltharion, the previous chief of the black Dragonflight who finally etched himself into historical past as Deathwing the Destroyer. Seems that for those who go up towards his son Nefarian in Blackwing Lair whereas taking part in Dracthyr there’s a brand new voice line that nicely, isn’t precisely very good.
When you haven’t performed the Dragonflight beginning zone, I recommend trying away now, as there are some spoilers coming as much as present context for this all-new voice line.
Nelrathion (earlier than he grew to become Deathwing) was the chief of the Black Dragonflight. In an try to bolster his armies as different dragonkin merely weren’t as much as the psychological job of coordinating and controlling the battlefield, he created the Dracthyr. Embodying all the 5 features, the Dracthyr have been famend for his or her mental and bodily prowess, which in a short time painted a goal upon their scaly hides.
Following a battle with the primal Raszageth, the relic Nelrathion used to regulate the Dracthyr was destroyed, main the Earth-Warder to lock his creations away of their creches for worry of revolt. This spurs on the occasions of the beginning zone, the place your draconic alter ego awakens from their magical slumber (courtesy of blue dragon Malygos) to enterprise out into Azeroth.
Given their intrinsic hyperlink to Nelrathion, it’s no shock that Blizzard has added a brand new distinctive voice line for his son Nefarian within the Blackwing Lair dungeon. One quick-fingered, eagle-eyed fan caught the change in a screenshot mid-clear, and it’s fairly damning.
“Evokers,” he rumbles. “Nothing greater than pitiful whelps. No surprise my father deserted your experiment.” Dracthyr additionally seem to obtain a debuff within the wake of Nelrathion’s assertion referred to as ‘Pitiful Whelp,’ which decreases all injury and therapeutic finished by 99.9% repeating. It’s described as “inflicting the goal with magic, making them a pitiful expression of what an actual dragon is.”
Whereas it is a little sassy of Nefarian, it’s the foolish little issues like this that make WoW so nice. Given Shadowlands’ fairly chaotic story and basic lack of consideration to element, it’s very cool to see that Blizzard nonetheless care about guaranteeing the sport’s lore is cohesive.
Forward of Dragonflight, we caught up with manufacturing director Pat Dawson, who confirmed that there gained’t be a Dracthyr warrior class added to the sport anytime quickly. Positive, this can be disappointing, however the Evoker continues to be a fairly superior class. You’ll be able to learn extra about their talents, and the final World of Warcraft Dragonflight abilities system in our helpful information.
