Wow, Wuk Lamat is really single-handedly ruining the DT story...

[fioravictorine]

What I believe is currently happening in the writers' room:

Nooo I have enough of that annoying cat to last a lifetime

[Y2K21]

This is a fear I've had for a few days now after finishing the MSQ. If they make her follow us around in future expansions then I'll just go back to WoW, my endgame here is MSQ and glamour. WoW already has this game beat on the latter despite the lack of dyes, and it's far easier to ignore a story or character I dislike there than it is here.

Yea but then you have Anduin. Idk if that's any better

Unfortunately, I have a feeling that the entire reason why...

Koana was made into Dawnservant alongside WL, despite the fact he's better at the job and actually fills the role when Tural needs him unlike WL

...is because he'll be holding down the fort while WL stays glued to our hip until...whenever the writers finally sideline her.

If they do that despite all the criticism on the character I either leave completely or become a story skipper.
I sooner wait for Guild Wars 3 then bother with this crap character any longer.

I wouldn’t be surprised because SE is notorious for bad decisions and Wuk Lamat is such an obvious writers pet that I‘m sure Yoshida has a Body pillow of her.

If she really keeps following us that would also be a slap in the face for all those who liked Alyse, Ryne, Zero who were sidelined and forgotten so fast.

I really hope they just wanted to look how this story approaches gets received and that patch stories are something else.
It would be strange to announce this expansion as something of a test to decide how to proceed further and then force it through later anyway.

They have said that what happens in the future expansions depends on the reception of 7.0, but I assume that is more referring to the lala gizmo than anything. Unfortunately for all involved WL is enough of a charisma black hole to warp all discussion around her.

Man, image if we go shard hopping to the first for patch content and poochie has to tag along. Thancred's reunion with Ryne ruined by her gushing over how awesome Wookie is. G'raha trying to have a heartfelt moment with his people and Lyna when the focus then switches to Wuk Lmao talking about how she can't wait to learn about all her new friends and try their food! Then we're forced to show her around and introduce her to the Chais, and Alphi ain't even present. Of course Estinien will get a scene where he goes off to explore alone.

Just wait till our character gets replaced.
There will be a message in 8.0 saying „you now play as Wuk Lamat“ and that’s it.
The character editor is replaced with only her and you get the job Wuk Warrior that is a solo class.
Also Wuk Lamat will have the ability to travel to other shards on rainbows helping the people, turning back the rejoinings and at the end you see all characters dance together while the WoL is nowhere to be seen.

They promised Job identity just didn’t say it was for her.

Please look forward to it.

Don't forget the 13th! She will use her power of friendship on the Voidsent.

Will we be able to choose between Tank Wuk Lamat and DPS Wuk Lamat or will DPS Wuk Lamat be the new 8.0 job?

Given the 100 trial it’s all

For better or worse, the 7.1 and 7.2 patch narratives are going to be almost set in stone at this point with how far out they develop for this game. So it's unlikely that feedback will be reflected until much later.
