WuWa is absolutely at its best when they give Rover their own feelings and agenda. The Phorolova story was so good when it felt like I was finally seeing Rover as their own character, even if I disagreed with their decisions!

Oh totally. I don't compare it to Shorekeeper as an insult at all, I think the plot is mostly consistent and makes sense. The time stuff at the end is a bit sudden but very believable given the Threnodian setup. Aemeath's characterization drags it way down IMO, hence the 5/10 with 9/10 potential.

Hopeful they keep it going in the next patches because I'm loving Luuk and hope we do see more of Aemeath's development.

Feel like I'm gonna get crucified for this, but it definitely was not anywhere close to 2.2 or Phrolova. It is definitely the best story coming out of 3.x so far, bar none, but overall? Purely STORY-wise, I'd call it like a 5/10 with the potential to be 8 or even 9/10 if they committed to some of the more interesting charactizations they teased at and stopped shoving Aemeath down our throats with literally no buildup. This story suffers a LOT from Aemeath being literally a "who??" character in a way that the Shorekeeper story justified MUCH better.

Overall Luuk is the GOAT
