The Cape of Stranglethorn is the southern part of Stranglethorn Vale, designated as the piece of land south of the area around the Gurubashi Arena.
Changes occurring to areas:
* Crystalvein Mine – no longer surrounded by hills, thanks to collapse into watery chasm at northern end (separating Cape of Stranglethorn from Northern Stranglethorn)
* Gurubashi Arena – mobs behind arena have been changed (Tethis is no longer there and has been moved to Northern Stranglethorn); new PvP quest added
* Mistvale Valley – north of here is a new Alliance encampment put together by the Explorers' League, with flight path called the Explorers' League Dig Site
* Ruins of Jubuwal – zombies seem to have spilled out and now inhabit both sides of the road
* Southern Savage Coast – along the coast near Gurubashi Arena is now a Goblin-themed Horde town called Hardwrench Hideaway; further south where you hunt naga, the naga now have proper structures along the shore and in the hills
* The Crystal Shore – massive oil pipes have been erected in the water
* Other – north of Booty Bay there is now a Bloodsail Recruiter in the hills
* New Hunter Pets – Skymane Bonobo (Monkey)
