Since a few folks have already brought up cool tidbits from The Last Guardian, here’s one of my favorites:
Khadgar took a deep breath. “One of the magical laws. When someone handles an item, they leave a part of their own magical aura or vibration attached to the item. As auras vary with individuals, it is possible to connect to one by affecting the other. In this way a lock of hair may be used in a love charm, or a coin may be tracked back to its original owner.”
Every race in the known universe can understand Common, hence why it’s called “Common”. But actually -speaking- Common is the part that needs to be learned.
^ Apparently it’s very easy.
The Highborne were able to speak Common long before they ever made contact with Humans.
I think it’s more that Arakkoans are very, very smart and clever.
And did the Highborne speak common? I thought it was Rhonin during the War of the Ancients that spoke Darnassian?
“Common may be a universal language as a variety of races speak it with one another in-game, and the language was used to communicate between the tauren and night elves as early as 10,000 years ago.” a direct qoute from the website that I can’t link to you for some reason.
Hm, didn’t know that.
#TheMoreYouKnow~~
The Furbolgs also used Common to communicate with Huln in the Highmountain Quests.
“[In broken Common] Feathered one said you come. Unng Ak not hope for you come. Tauren have thanks.” - Huln’s War - The Arrival
Murlocs can also speak it.
<The murloc struggles to speak your language.>
"Rockpool… attacked. turn, take village, villagers.
“Salt-Flop escape, but others do not. Go south, talk to Chief Neptool. Maybe he survive.” - Home… Gone… Naga…
According to Traveler 1, the murloc language is also very beautifully expressive and poetic, far more so than Common according to Thalyss who’s fluent in it. They even have a concept of honour.
So the mongrel Horde is going to be Saurfangs, not Garrosh’ 
Less a lore tidbit and more a question.
Has Blizzard finally decided what “”“magic”"" Hunters use yet?
None.
Why would they?
Thorim says: I know your heart aches at Hati’s loss, <name>, just as mine does. You have a kinship with the spirits of wild creatures greater than any I have seen before.
Image of Mimiron says: Wait… that’s it, <name>. If you bind Hati’s spirit to your own, you can channel the power back into Titanstrike! You’ll save Hati and restore the gun!

Nature magic. Shamanism, druidism, take your pick. They’re both two sides of the same coin and both deal with the spirit of the wild and animal spirits. I personally RP it on my orc hunter as shamanism.
Some Highmountain Tauren practice boxing, headbutting and racing with elderhorns or eagles. Some juveniles play with a ball.
To some extent I think it’s a less specific variant of “life magic”. Especially for Beastmasters like Varien.
He’s a kindred spirit with a big bear boi. It’s pretty cool.
Don’t think I wan’t to box against a tauren, since they are the strongest playable race in the game (shut up, leave me alone).
One punch and I’d fly from Highmountain to Azsuna, and then be there with a broken body.
Nice thoughts.
More or less, yeah. How your character came to learn that is entirely up to you. Some worgen, night elves, et cetera might feel a connection due to their druidic theme. Orcs, tauren through shamanism and so forth.
You can ask Prince Erazmin for class specific cybernetic upgrades and for hunters he suggests you get a neural implant to translate your pet’s [animal sounds]. Something to think about for gnomes and goblins.
before i start is hearthstone lore regarding to wow canon?
It exists in-universe, but the lore of it is regarded as a marketing scheme according to a ruling over twitter. It’s about as real as transformers figurines for us. It’s inspired by real things, but shouldn’t be taken as factual information.
The difficult part is deciphering which part of its lore is actually real, and which part is an exaggeration. Tortollans for example turned out to be a real thing, but Knights of the Frozen Throne are not.
No, but the game itself does exist in WoW and some people play it.
there goes my tidbit about tortolla, the tortollan god and her shellraisers.
more like hurricane tortolla???
