Aki the Chosen is still there, like a boss! There is destruction all around her, but she has stayed put. For now, anyway.
That new meeting stone you can see off to the right is for the new raid in the Vale.

I have no problems beating using my Anubisath Idol, it just takes so much long than the rest of them.Equeon wrote:Anubisath Idol + Pterrordax Hatchling = get a level 1 pet to level 11 in 5 minutes or less.
It's super effective!
On an on-topic note, thanks for the screenshot, Kalliope!
I believe if you can believe out of nothing an explosion (big bang) happened then how far fetched can god be?
It seems that killing these rares also grants reputation with Golden Lotus - I got 200 rep for killing Cracklefang with another hunter.

You know that achievement that requires killing certain bosses in the Vale? They appear to be rare spawns in 5.4, so that will still be available.

You know, I think if they didn't phase it, it'd actually be really intense and amazing. Imagine a new player hearing all these wonderful things about the power and wonderful magic of the Vale, then entering... only to find it a complete wreck as the Sha take it over completely. Can you say doomsday scenario? Finding the most power-rich place in Pandaria, only for it to be completely ruined! I'd die of epic!Wain wrote:Man, first we wreck a giant dragon statue that took centuries to build, then we destroy the most precious place in all of the realm. In the last patch of the expansion are we going to be speeding away on our ships as the entire continent goes "BOOM" behind us? :/
I do wonder, though, if the zone look is temporary, and at least some healing will have taken place by the time we say goodbye. I also wonder if they'll still use the earlier phase for new players, as it otherwise requires a huge disruption to the current storyline. Lots of quests and chats refer to the Vale. This is only the first patch of the PTR, so I don't expect the full implementation of the changes is in yet, but it'll be interesting to see.

Once the expansion is over and Pandaria is just a levelling continent, this would be a great way to handle it. I think the Alliance and Horde operations in Krasarang, and their related quests, should be lowered, split and fit into the levelling story, i.e. the factions are establishing their footholds and events are escalating as you level. You get a peek at the beauty of the Vale, such as the Jinyu's vision in V4W. By the time you reach KLS, Garrosh is hunting the Bell. You persuade the Celestials to open the gate to the Vale. The refugees flood in, as do the Horde and Alliance. You get called away to TLS and beyond. Garrosh betrays Vol'Jin. You have a brief stint in the Barrens. Then you get called back, urgently. Garrosh has succeeded and the Vale is ruined. Something like that, anywaycowmuflage wrote:That would be quite the shock!
