Beastmen Settlements....Beastmen Strongholds.........

[Betelgeuzah]

So we're getting strongholds in 1.19.

BUT

It seems they are going to be a remodeled part of the existing regions, Thanalan and so on.

SO

What strikes me as odd is that the three "beastmen regions", O'ghomoro, Pagl'than and...the third one.. are yet to be unveiled.

As one would guess, these three zones would be the "strongholds" for the beastmen. However, now they've been added to the existing regions instead. Which makes me draw comparisons to XI. If these are Giddeus, Palborough and Fort Ghelsba, the locked regions would be Castle Oz., Davoi and Beadeaux.

So what's the plan with these three unreleased regions? We know that Ishgard is coming, and thus far I had thought that with the Strongholds the other unreleased areas would be unlocked as well... but alas. Now the question must be asked! Are we perhaps waiting for the zone redesign? That's fine with me, but at least give us a heads-up!
