It's a trap!
maybe for a laugh in the beta .. actually he is dead, at least what i know
i call for a placeholder
well, that whole gnoll place is renamed "hogger hill", and there is gnolls there with freaking shadowstep!!! hogger is an old god in disguise.!!!
Could simply be the fact that it's the Beta.
Could be that Hogger had no further purpace in Elwynn and went into the Stockades for his new home.
Could be he was captured and put there
(in which case Hogger went there willingly because no army could possibly capture Hogger.)
Could be hogger plotting to 1 shot Deathwing because Deathwing left burn marks on his new home.
Could be Hogger is planning a Party with Gamon.
Ether way, it's going to be bad ass.
Stockades just got serious.
wow..this should have happened ages ago...better not be photoshoped :L
Basically , knowing that the Stockades are underground , Hogger got himself arrested so he could dig up to Deatholme from the Stockades and finally kill Deahtwing.
Now for the serious post: If this means Stocks is finally going to be a proper instance rather then a glorified elite area then I quote "Hell....It's about time"
O...mai...gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawd...............
I might be wrong but..
It looks shopped to me. He is alot brighter than the other gnoll like he is targeted, but there is no red circle on the ground.
Judging by the elementals my theory is Hogger is now a Lieutenant of the Elemental Lords. Hogger allowed himself to be captured because, during the sundering the elementals broke into the bowels of SW into the prison. Hogger needed to be on the inside of SW to command his elemental forces.
Huh.... maybe the Stockades are thrown into chaos during Deathwinds attack (wouldn't be surprised after a 5 year Riot). If this photo here is the West Wing of the Stockades, it should actually be blown apart with the Park which would explain the Elementals. Maybe even allowing you to go outside into the ruins of the park (expanding the instance).
Maybe the East End of the Stockades has hogger placed their for laughs. Maybe he 'snuck in' during the Chaos and killed all the Rioters on the West Side.
Wanted: "Hogger" was merely a setback!
