Stratholme to be Cleansed

[GennGreymane]

the place has been on fire for over a decade

it needs to be cleansed soon

Likely just a positive note to end the dungeon on. I don't think anything will come of it, and if anything does, it wont happen for quite a while.

Or negative, as its highly implied that the Brotherhood of Light is going to walk the same path as the Scarlet Crusade.

priests and paladins could do with a little love in regards to class specific areas/some sort of recognition...nearly two expansions since the light bested The Lich King now!

if the goal is a class area, cleansing Stratholme would be a good one

Isnt lights hope chapel the place for paladins and priests

Hell pallys and priest has a huge fucking cathedral yeah its ally only but still

Long overdue, IF it's really going to happen.

Of course it's not. Remove an important, popular, long-standing dungeon and replace it with a useless city with nothing in it? Why would they even consider it?

or have a bit of rain

raising the dead is nothing compared to the potential damage of the scourge's weather machines

It really wouldn't require any new art or effort. They can just automatically replace every burnt building with intact ones, replace scorched and broken streets with clean cobbles and then change the skybox; it can all be done with a few quick commands to the creation tool.

It works the same way as model edits - you just tell the game to replace a model, object or tileset with a different one.

...who says those models or art assets exist in game in such a "boom and it's done" form? The buildings in stratholme don't exist as individual buildings; they come in giant pre-assembled model banks. Considering that roughly half of stratholme doesn't exist in a non-destroyed form (and that's not even counting the "blocked off tunnel" sections,) I don't think a few script commands would give blizzard a brand new shiny Stratholme.

Its funny how light corrupts, yet everyone considers it a force of purity.
