Of all of the WoW Dragonflight patch 10.0.5 updates, typically tiny high quality of life modifications are those that sate MMORPG followers essentially the most. On this occasion, it’s a change to considered one of World of Warcraft‘s many NPC’s voicelines, which works on, and on, and on about simply how worthy he’s.
The person in query is God-King Skovald who, as you’ll be able to most likely guess by his identify, is a person who loves to debate his many, many conquests. Encountered within the Halls of Valor because the penultimate boss, the character’s prolonged speech about how the participant character is not going to lay declare to the Aegis of Aggramar has been slashed by a great few seconds, which means gamers can get into the motion so much faster.
Blizzard’s official hotfix notes state that “God-King Skovald is now much less verbose when stating his declare to the Aegis of Aggramar,” and streamer Pete ‘LeakyDonutt’ has gone on to point out the clipped model of his speech.
The section begins within the video under at 1:13:37, the place Skovald responds to Odyn’s claims that the Aegis is free for the taking. The place he as soon as responded “No! I, too, have proved my price, Odyn. I’m God-King Skovald! These mortals dare not problem my declare to the Aegis!” he now solely replies “if these false champions is not going to yield the Aegis by alternative… then they are going to give up it in dying!”
In line with the WoW subreddit, this alteration is “the HoV nerf we’ve all been ready for.” On condition that the character did ramble on fairly a bit, I’m inclined to agree.
Whereas I sympathise with considerations that “future newbies will marvel why Skovald simply is available in yelling ‘NO!’ with none context,” I can see why Blizzard has chosen to streamline issues a bit of. Ready whereas he showered himself with reward definitely appeared prefer it went on for an eternity – particularly when it’s 4am and that is your final dungeon. I simply need the Ragnarok Ember, okay (I by no means received it)?
