One major change is to the Ironforge Airport, never before available, which now has the denizens of Ironforge fight against Dark Iron insurgents. The Nethergarde Mines have also been taken by the Horde.ĭun Morogh has some rather interesting areas that have changed. Dreadmaul Hold is no longer an ogre settlement, but a Horde town. At the southern tip of the Tainted Scar is Surwich, a worgen town and a quest hub for Alliance players. In addition to these, the Tainted Scar (sub-zone in the south-western parts of the Blasted Lands, currently populated by elite demons) is now a large forest, dark, misty, and gloomy, with exposure to the ocean. The level range of the zone is being completely changed, and the newly exposed coastline to the east allows for a brand new play zone. This is one of the zones Blizzard is most excited about. Its best feature is probably the three-quests chain The Day that Deathwing Came, which gives you the (hilarious) stories of three NPCs about how they defeated Deathwing when he sundered the world. However unlike the Barrens, this is still a single zone. There is a massive fissure splitting the Badlands roughly across the middle (leaving "east half" and "west half"). To maintain its position in the Badlands, the Horde as raised a new encampment - Apocryphan's Rest. The Horde settlement of Kargath has been completely destroyed and almost completely burrowed under sand, dirt, and rocks by Deathwing's rending of the earth. The Badlands, originally announced to be one of the most dramatically changed zones, turns out to be modified about as much as, say Darkshore. Other than that, the only other "big" addition is a tunnel that will allow you to travel to The Hinterlands.
These changes have been documented in our handy-dandy Cataclysm Guide, but since we're all waiting for the servers to come up, we figured a primer might be appreciated.Ĭheck out the information after the break, complete with some entertaining videos covering the new race starting zones courtesy of The BFF Report.Īrathi Highlands has only undergone minor changes - a new Forsaken camp next to Thoradin's Wall, some new NPCs here and there, a few visual changes. This ranges from cosmetic changes to modifications to the leveling flow throughout both continents.
