Molten Giants, Black Temple Map, May 11 Hotfixes, Firelands Preview, Blue Posts

"LOL" yeah, 3 characters exalted with Hydraxian Warlords DURING Vanilla, I mustve been posessed/hypnotised!

Consider the actual bosses, several are humanoids without a bit of fire/lava attached to them and the environment was a blend of caves as well as lava rivers. It still conveyed the feeling of being, well a Molten Core for want of a better expression, without decorating every moving (or otherwise) object in fire or lava

THAT was the point, not to incite all the "lol WOTLK generation" towards someone who has played and raided a lot since day one

Yes, of course it has to be fire themed since its Firelands, step aside Captain Obvious, the HMS Apparent is leaving the docks, but "less is more" applies once you pass a certain point

yea, rock guys, fire lizards, fire elementals.. fire giants.. dogs who breathed fire.. fire imps.. and... Ragnaros.... You have failed me for the last time executus..

Rhyolith and Baleroc both look awesome.

Sounds like Blizzard should be focusing on other things than making maps for old content though - maybe release new content faster instead?

Molten Core managed to be a fire themed raid without ramming "lol fire/lava!" down our throats with every mob/boss/mount/enviornmental object!

Incorrect.

I'm quite sure making that map was not time-intensive labor.

oh noes they called a boss baleroc, its unacceptable!

[Alraml]

Ahhh no they gave in on Anthracist.

Bigotry killing logic once again

"Black Temple" is not a dungeon. It's a raid instance.

You know, even raid instances can be dungeons, it doesnt matter if you put 5, 10 or 25ppl inside. Just google what the word "dungeon" means.


I wonder who cares if they really had named the boss Antichrist in the first place, except for all those religious fantatics that let others tell them the "truth" of the world...

Also, the new dailies sound pretty interesting. Ready to Raid II achievement ftw

Cause the Lotr movies created fictional creatures.

I actually liked him being called "Anthricyst".

Putting in those BT maps 3 years late really shows blizz cares about the half a million dropped subscriptions lol. Instead of implementing new and creative ideas that will keep people playing...let's add maps to a dusty soloable (much of) raid that no one gives a shit about.

[Shamslam]

The blue quote is cool, but it's hardly new. WotLK had quests that could be viewed as preparing one for raiding, and Cata is chock full of quests like that. Glad to see they are finally taking notice of it, but it's not like it's something completely new.

Bring back Anthricyst Club!

Baleroc is an obvious Balrog, that's all I'm saying. =P

[Pontificate]

Here's a big fat FUCK YOU to the bitch-ass jesusfreak christians who cried about Lord Antichrist's name.

[Muckey]

Omfg... When I saw the Black Temple maps, I got shivers down my spine. I thought they were bringing back Black Temple as a raid instance in a upcoming patch. That would be the final nail in the coffin where Blizzard's former innovation lies buried...

You need to tone it down some son. I never saw a single person in the entire original thread or any thread after complain about the bosses name for religious reasons. What I did see was people like you complaining about the non-existent religious nuts every other post. GG bigot, go back to the middle ages where you belong.

Edit: And its Anthricyst you moron. Its a verbal pun on a type of coal.

[Moonatic]

I can't believe people are actually complaining that they added a few maps for Black Temple. Seems like such a minor detail that was probably very cheap and easy to update.

[Deleted]

Can't believe they actually renamed Anthrycist because of some illiterate idiots
