The Queue: Why the turtle though

Welcome back to The Queue, our daily Q&A feature for all of Blizzard’s games! Have a question for the Blizzard Watch staff? Leave it in the comments!

While doing the umpteenth run through of Suramar’s quest chain, I happened to look up at the right moment and notice…this painting. It’s a turtle, but it’s a glowing turtle. And sure, those candles could be just for more reading light, but they almost look like a shrine to the glowing turtle. What’s the turtle for? Why’s it glowing? Most importantly, why is this not a Battle Pet already? Inquiring minds want to know, Blizzard.

You guys also have some inquiring minds, so let’s just answer your questions while we’re here, sans turtle-confusion.


The Queue: You no take Candle, Jack!

It’s day 2 of Mitchqueuing and it’s also the release of Antorus’ first LFR wing. Happy Tuesday, folks, I hope it’s a good one! What’s your favorite Tuesday tradition? Mine is reading titles out loud before pondering what they sound like when spoken.

Side note: Lots of controversy in yesterday’s Queue regarding Teldrassil’s burning. I went back and watched the What’s Next panel — Afrasiabi said, “Why are the Horde burning Teldrassil? Why are the Alliance attacking the Undercity? It doesn’t matter who fired the first shot…” Maybe something was said elsewhere by a different dev, but I’m taking Afrasiabi’s word as truth since he’s ultimately the one who makes these calls.

So yeah, lots of room for interpretation with that, especially since “who fired the first shot” could refer to a third party. My bad on that. But at least I have a new article idea!
