One of the petopians on this site introduced us to the hilarious gentleman's youtube page with the worgen starter zone. He has now released a Troll one.

I find it interesting that we see two kinds of raptors here which can possibly be tamed at lvl 10. I am concerned that I saw no tigers,but I might have missed them.

Another interesting thing I'd like to point out is the troll raptor mounts you get to ride in one of the quests. With the BG mounts missing from the official page for some time now and seeing these along with the fact that the argent tourny mounts are suspiciously similar to them I have a strong feeling the Bg mounts will be changing in the expansion. Nothing is confirmed,but I'd suggest picking one up sooner rather than later if you have a model you really want.

Oh wow, I'm just in love with the Troll's new starting area. I don't think I'd want to leave at level 5! It looks beautiful, so nice to see them move away from the Orcs and do their own thing.

[rubybeam]

i foregot all aobut how much of a bastard garrosh was i hope they ditch him after the cataclysum expansion ((sorry for useing foul langauge)) *warning spoiler* I hate how he kills carnine in cold blood all the horde should just quit the horde, i miss thrall so so much.

[Anansi]

Fantastic! Nice to see Vol'jin being a bit of a bad-ass. I wonder if he'll carry through his threat....

Vol'jin for Warchief!!

[zedxrgal]

Another awesome video from Totalbiscut. /tame baby rator!!!!
They're so bloody cute!

I may have to roll a new troll from this.

[Sarayana]

Oh man, there were so many things that made me happy about that video!!! Vol'jin's to Garrosh, the raptor whistle quest, the phasing, the final battle... I'll be makin' me some trolls in Cata!!!!!


I know this is totally disputed, but I think Garrosh becoming Warchief is awesome! Look at Sylvanas, look at Vol'jin! Such great story lines are coming from it!!!

^ This precisely.

I'm not saying I like Garrosh, but I love what his rise to power is bringing out in the Horde as a whole. I'm very excited about the developments that are sure to come of it.

[Anansi]

Oh absolutely. Having an unpopular Warchief is ripe breeding ground for faction drama and storylines. Garrosh is terrible, but he is giving the Horde a wonderful story arc for Cataclysm and it will be wonderful to take part as it plays through.

[Ryai]

Didn't anyone see the mounts? The raptors are BLOOD RED with blue feathers! The raptors are new models!

Can anyone find better screens of them!? :O

Was 15:40ish after he returned swiftclaw

[Sarayana]

I did notice, Ryai. I just kind of assumed they're NPC mounts though. >.>

They might not be, it could be a reward mount- tho in theory this would mean alliance would need a reward mount too. But that could be possible because Gnomes did the same thing as Trolls [got their own zones] so they could have a 'new' mechastrider mount too...

..

yes I am just saying this for hope of a blood red riding raptor >.>

[Zangor]

This model?

its been in the game files forever i guess they just decided with the new starting zone the NPCs needed new war raptors

[Vephriel]

It's a gorgeous raptor model. I'll be super excited if we're able to obtain it somehow. :3

those dang goblins have raptors mind controlled!

[Nevar]

Wow those are pretty, kinda like the unused saber skin.. That one makes me sad

[zedxrgal]

I wish even the current riding raptors were a tamable pet. Not the mount itself but there was a mob in that skin for the taming. /daydream

[Sigrah]

I can't wait to try it when they release Troll Druids finally On a side note, that troll casting shadow bolt at the 1:45 mark seems to confirm that Troll Warlocks are indeed going to be playable.

Aren't all the new race/class combos already confirmed?

We already know this.

[Vephriel]

Yup, Troll warlocks have been 100% confirmed by blues.

That would be me! *curtsies* I'm glad you enjoy TotalBiscuit as much as I do. I don't even watch any other beta preview videos, because they make me snooze.

On a side note: If you go into his archives, you can see "Chronicles of a Goldfarmer", which is where I found him through, maaaany years ago. I'm glad I subscribed to him back then.
