    Patch 3.4 - Soul Surrender

    I figured we could do with a new thread to discuss/speculate some of this, and well... Everything I knew is a lie...

    Great Gumball Library (Hard)?! Excuse me while I scream into the Void at the lack of Snowcloak (Hard)...

    Xelphatol as the other dungeon... Pushing towards Ala Mhigo I guess, but damn... My heart can't take this... First Mhach, now this... These could be whole zones on their own, not instances... /cries

    On a more... Positive note? Alexander makes me happy... This in particular fans my theory that the planet/Hydaelyn is just a really big Primal...

    Oh, Sophia is the next for the Warring Triad? Let me get back to screaming...

    So Xelphatol being a dungeon, means that it will not be a zone for 4.0?

    Well, I guess we got Snowcloak and Coerthas Western Highlands...

    Wonder why we're going into Xelphatol exactly... Oh... Right... The new housing stuff would appear to be accessed from the existing housing zones, does that leave that Lily Hills line of speculation free for something else now? Xelphatol has Ixali enemies, so one hopes for a return to conflicts with the old beast tribes... Damlet Hefense? Pleeeeeeeaseeeee...

    Anyone able to translate some of the UI elements show? Wondrous Tails sounds like my new favorite content by virtue of involving my favorite NPC, and GC Platoons looks... Far more involved than I was expecting... Still kinda looks like GC Ventures, though...

    I'm calling it though... The big bad truth is that Hydaelyn is a Primal... We had Bahamut, with an oddly familiar crystal heart... Now we've got Alexander, much larger and able to sustain a small civilization, with a familiar blue crystal heart... The planet is a Primal... That's got to be it... We exist to fight Primals... If we knew what Hydaelyn truly was... Who would we side with... Nope, Elidibus, that's still not going to work... I kinda need a planet to live on...

    Bu the dungeon was called Snowcloak, not "western Highlands". This place has the very same name than the big zone or country.

I doubt the Great Gubal Library (Hard) will be for anything other than a side story that is not directly connected with the main scenario though.
    We had no confirmation that the dungeon has a relation whatsoever with the main scenario or did we?

    Eh... Not necessarily. It could merely be the name of the Ixal capital city, a part of Xelphatol Proper.

    Just like Djibouti is the capital of Djibouti.

    That was a old comment. Of course its still behind the possibility that we may get areas of that place for the expasion.
    The issue that made speculate so much people is that the name of an entire region was given to this dungeon, is like on 2.4 we would have given a dungeon called Dravania.

    True, but that said, from what we know so far Xelphatol seems to be just a bunch of barren mountains and valleys plus "there be Ixals", which doesn't sound that exciting for a whole zone

    Well, personally I always figured it'd be more of an open world dungeon anyway... Sort of like Mamook in Final Fantasy XI, but well... Hamlet Defense is seemingly dead and buried, so without a Besieged style assault of a Gridanian Hamlet by the Ixali, what's the point of Xelphatol as a enemy stronghold for the server to group together to fight back in?

    Excuse me while I morn a future full of FATEs as our only "serious" open world content...
