Harry Potter flavour ?

Scholomance Academy = Howgarts

Soul Fragment = Horcrux

  • Scholomance Academy = Howgarts

    Soul Fragment = Horcrux

  • I agree, it's certainly there - and I love it. I'm pretty sure that the solo adventure will take a more WoW oriented direction though. They gave us a Kel'Thuzad hero in its lich form with a fitting card back and a human Kel'Thuzad as a card, that doesn't add up without an explanation in my books. Conclusion: the PVE content will be about the players discovering the evil nature of the headmaster and suddenly it all turns from Hogwarts to OG Scholomance. 

  • Since I play wow (wotlk), I am certain, that the soul fragments are a reference to the soul shards, a secondary resource for warlocks, that they used for some abilities - like summoning demons. Those items were present even in vanilla wow, way before the horcruxes were introduced to the public.

    Oh, btw warlocks could use the soul shards to create healthstones - conjured items, that restored health. So the connection to the mmo is a strong one.

      Hogwarts :)  - sry , had to do this :) 

       

      I see what you mean, but i personaly don't realy see a connection there other then the Academy is a School and so is Hogwarts.

      Soul Fragments are way to many i guess to be Horcruxes ? but i also was never that big of a Harry Potter Fan myself :)

      Still excited about what the Solo Content has to offer tough - i kinda expect something like anchorm4n said : Players encounter a evil nature in the school etc.
