Talk:Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire

Does anyone have an in-game source for: "It is ironic that the weakest of us may be the ultimate victor. C'Thun, Yogg-Saron, Y'Shaarj, and well, only one would remain to consume the world, that was always meant to be." It was datamined and put on Youtube. It's often cited for N'Zoth being the weakest of the 4 Old Gods, but without the in-game text to verify where the actual punctuation is, it's hard to get proper context. --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 23:08, 1 November 2016 (UTC)

 * It seems to be one of those things Xal'atath occasionally says at random without any specific trigger. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 17:57, 21 November 2016 (UTC)


 * I would very much like to know if there were any occurences of that prior to 7.1 -- ShellShockLive (talk) 22:09, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
 * People were definitely throwing that line around on the official forums before 7.1. Here's a thread from July: -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 22:21, 21 November 2016 (UTC)
 * That was from the datamined voice files. --Aquamonkeyeg (talk) 22:24, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

K'tanth?
Moar worlds? --Mordecay (talk) 20:20, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I think it's a sunken city of some sort, or what the Broken Shore used to be called during the days of the Black Empire.-- K IROCHI  ) 20:28, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Yeah, can't be talking about another world since she's talking about 'these lands'. So back in the days, on these lands, there was K'tanth. I imagine it was either the name of the gigantic tower that was there before the titans came or/and the city around it if there was one. -- MyMindWontQuiet (talk) 09:56, 1 June 2017 (UTC)

Split
We know this artifact will, like "become a humanoid or something"? Also, it is an important artifact so it would be better to split the in-game item with a lore page. --Ryon21 (talk) 08:45, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, Xal'atath's storyline will go way beyond its simple goal as an artifact in Legion. This one really must be split. Xporc (talk) 08:55, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Since it seems the story of Xal'atath the entity will be diverging from the story of Xal'atath the dagger, I think a split is warranted. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 09:27, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Though I suggest we wait a bit for more information. -- MyMindWontQuiet 12:24, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

Page move
I think I'd much rather leave the artifact weapon at the full name of Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire. It seems really backwards to have "Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire" as a redirect and "Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire (artifact)" be a page name. If someone is searching for "Xal'atath" they might be looking for either, but if they're searching for "Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire" they're almost definitely looking for the artifact. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 00:42, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Seems reasonable. 04:23, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Most of the time, the links that were pointing to Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire were actually speaking about the dagger/character and her backstory rather than her gameplay function as an artifact, so that seemed the best way to do it Xporc (talk) 09:26, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I'd have to agree with DarkTZeratul. PeterWind (talk) 20:51, 14 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Well then someone please update all the links pointing to Xal'atath, Blade of the Black Empire (artifact) considering they are now all invalid/not working correctly anymore :p Xporc (talk) 07:03, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * I left the redirect so they should all still work. We can use a bot to change them after I finish seeing what links here that should link to "Xal'atath" instead. -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 07:43, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Nice Xporc (talk) 08:59, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Bump. You guys wanted to move Xal'atath, then please finish updating the links. Xporc (talk) 14:47, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
