PROPHECY OF TELOR discussion

There is a red figure just to the right of the female monk that is standing next to the mythic tier skeleton. It looks similar to the Orc Bard, but not the same.

Interesting... if you are right maybe it is the Female version of the Bard to be included inside the Spirit Queens Torment box??

The link Kurgan just posted has a nice close up view of the dio. I don't know how to do screen caps off of a YouTube short but it looked like the regular Bard if I am looking in the right place. I could be wrong though!

[HispaZargon]

Yes, it is just the male Bard.

Nevertheless, introducing the female Bard in SQT box instead of the male one makes all the sense for me. Similar feeling with male Warlock/Druid.

[LucaRocks]

In the same short, he also shows that a sign has replaced the box covers on the wall. It must say to be revealed Oct 6 or something similar. I guess AH is reading these forums!

It's just distortion, the video shows clearly that it's the same old Mythic Bard we know and love (or love to hate):

Then again, the Mandela Effect is not real, so while they took down the pictures of POT and SQT and replaced them with a "disclosure" (aka coming soon) white paper, they might also have substituted a female bard in there quickly at the start. But I am also thinking it could just be the low res playing tricks on us with the angle.

Oops, forgot to refresh, I see you guys already solved the mystery.

[Kurgan]

It makes some sense... the pictures were probably meant to be put up later, they say "buy me" as if you can "pre-order now" but the QR codes go to a page that isn't ready yet. So they changed it. Intrepid reporters got it first though so we can rest easy even if we miss the convention.

I think somebody is on our side there... kudos.

Would I object to a female bard? Hardly. We already had female Orcs in the lore of the original HQ (see Marvel Winter Special) and they are official in plastic via the remake game system. Either way, he's in there and he (or she) can easily be modded into a Pirate.

Somehow I missed it the first time around, the very first quest of this pack, Return to Melar's Maze, there are 3 chests on the board, none of them are marked or mentioned in the quest pack, so hopefully that's one thing they'll fix if they reprint this quest. I'm inclined to go with Mage of the Mirror's suggested fix that any unmarked chest holds 200 gold.
However also applying this to Lair of the Orc Warlord gives more gold in that chest then The quest objective is worth.
