I was wondering why so many people are hyped for the rumored battle in Veil Of Shadows? Don't get me wrong, I am excited too! But I also don't think I'm nearly as excited as I should be. I was seeking some enlightenment.

We may see Reedwhisker kill someone.

It's not really a rumor. It's just pretty obvious that there's going to be one. The blurb mentions that tensions are so high that it could lead to war and the blurb for DW only confirms it.
As for your question, it's a battle. That's reason enough to get excited, especially if Shadowsight really is dead since it would mean that no one is safe. Tigerheart and the imposter will also likely fight in this book, thus making the vision from LS come true.

The blurb for Darkness Within claims it was a “devastating battle”, so I’m expecting a good amount of cats to die. It’s also likely where we’ll see the Tigerstar vs Impostor fight and, going off the blurb again, potentially the reveal of the impostor’s identity.

Because there's a chance they might actually off a bunch of cats if it is as devastating as the books claim.
However, there's a good chance to be disappointed as well, so I'm keeping my interest low on the matter. The rule for Warriors that I go by is don't raise your expectations too high. TBC may be doing alright now, but there's still the chance that it will flub up SOMETHING. (And if they actually don't this time around, I will eat my shoes)

Maybe because I want to read about who dies?

I'm curious to see who will be fighting who, if it will be clan against clan, or the pro codebreakers vs the anti code breakers, or if it's SkyClan getting ticked off at everyone pushing them around, and just going off on everyone.
SkyClan's Revenge: The Return of Clear Sky.

I can't really recall a time when a sentence that ended with a question mark wasn't a question, and it doesn't look like they were being sarcastic, so yeah...I think it's a real question. Also, just because someone doesn't share the thoughts of the majority, doesn't mean that their questions aren't valid.

Personally, I'm excited about it because Clan vs. Clan battles are the thing I miss most about the first series. Since then, they aren't as common. Several of my favorite battles are when Clans team up against each other (ShadowClan/RiverClan against WindClan/ThunderClan in Fire and Ice, WindClan/ShadowClan against ThunderClan in Forest of Secrets, etc.) Back in the first arc, there was a literally at least one politics-based battle -- sometimes even two or three -- per book, whether that was inner-Clan politics or outer-Clan politics. I miss that. We've had a few in later arcs (WindClan/RiverClan against ThunderClan/ShadowClan in Eclipse), but not often. warriors.fandom.com/wiki/Battles#In_The_Prophecies_Begin_arcJust read the battle blurbs from the wiki from the first arc alone. It's crazy awesome how common they used to be...now it's usually against outside forces like dogs, badgers, and whatever. I find those boring, since the ones against the other Clans or cat groups (BloodClan, the Kin, Brokenstar's rogues, etc.) are more interesting to read, imo. I like the politics that come from the Clans fighting each other and their allegiances changing, then us reading the aftermath.

I'm just surprised Blackstar helped ThunderClan during Outcast, though his reasoning was sound. He said it would be bad business if WindClan drove ThunderClan out, 'cause the balance by the lake would be thrown off, iirc. I wonder if he was also being a bit pragmatic, and didn't want ShadowClan to be next, considering ShadowClan piss off the other Clans all the time, so Onestar might decide to turn on them after ThunderClan's gone lol

Blackstar is such a confusing character, one minute, he's abandoning StarClan, because some rogue convinced him to just abandon everything he was taught, and then the next, he's making sound arguments like this. One minute, he's killing everyone, and the next, he's being all nice and inviting everyone over for tea.

I'm interested in how the clans are going to team up and maybe see a lot of death, because there's way too many characters. Most of them aren't even used.

Because I want them to off a bunch of bg TC characters and actually develop the ones that live, even just a little bit. Also the imposter reveal.

I'm hyped because it's a battle with gigantic stakes in the third book. If there's a huge battle like this only on the third book, then imagine what's gonna happen by the time the sixth is published. We've only read up to the second so far and crap's getting wild. As other replies I've seen have said already, there's most likely going to be the reveal of the imposter, a fight between him and Tigerheart/star, maybe we'll find out more about what will become of Bramblestar's spirit, we'll find out if Shadowsight is really dead or not (if he's alive it's a relief and if he's not then it creates more suspense because that means even protagonists aren't safe now. AoT moment), we'll find out if there are more cats behind whoever the imposter is or if he's acting alone, maybe Squirrelfight will get more heavily involved this series, and who knows what else? We don't, that's why I'm hyped. Haven't felt this level of suspense since the first series, tbh.

Recently the 3rd book has been the high point of the arc. Since I really liked TLS and TST, I have very high expectations for this one.
