    Etherael's connection to the Void(Their home being fucked up by it is a good connection. That's the connection anyways. Personally the whole concept is...ok. I enjoyed reading it but truthfully I'd be ok with it. Not blown away by it but it's ok.

    It looks like it was supposed to be a class hall considering the pedestals surrounding the altar.

    Btw. is there any viewer that can open maps like that?

    I see, it's quite intriguing they never used it for Dalaran or an outpost though, such a shame. By the way, that secret passage behind the broken bookshelf is amazing. And so is that lighthouse! My my, I'm getting excited, I feel like we're going somewhere!

    meh, he lost me at the ethereals. completely out of place in this setting. feels like he added them just to counter naga going horde. or maybe he just a big fan.

    Not really. Dovah's screenshots are taken in-game. My screenshots are taken in Blender. I'm not sure if WoWModelViewer supports WMOs again these days.

    I mean, if the void is heavily implied in next expansion, ethereals could have a justified place. I still don't know how I feel about them in the Alliance or Naga in the Horde, but I'm ready to give it a go if it's done properly.

    EDIT: Just saw your new screenshots about the lighthouse Marlamin. It looks fantastic and HUGE.

    could it be that this tower just an earlier version for Legion before they decided to place it in the centre of Dalaran?

    Yep, that is exactly what I think it is. It also has some class hall-like design going so I feel like it might have been for that as well.

    That's quite likely it, since the tower in the middle of Dalaran is named Aegwynn's Tower if I'm not mistaken. They probably intended for mages to have their order hall right in the middle of the city and later decided it would be better if it was hidden in the Violet Citadel.

    I agree, it looks like early concept stuff for the centre of Dalaran and what they originally envisioned as being the mage order hall. Still really neat. I wish wowhead and mmoc would post that stuff more. Why I liked Hayven so much, he posted all kinds of behind the scenes shit that showed all the crazy stuff Blizzard did to make things work right.

    Yep. Loved that guy. Really miss him! He used to ask me for all sorts of random WoW builds that I had archived away somewhere. Good times getting those over to him to mess with.

    That's unfortunate, wanted to inspect the Azeroth's Warning Scenario. Looks like no one did it yet.

    His exploring videos are/were really valuable.

    That's so true. Hayven videos were amazing, I've learned so much about what's behind the final content thanks to him.

    After browsing some of the pages of this thread, I can now officially conclude that many time travelling panda-orc hybrids were just born.

    When trying to load the full map in 7.2.5 my game just crashes. (and I can't load it in 7.3 client because I'm lazy.)

    This was the only area I was able to view. imgur /a/Sb1Yg

    EDIT: I'm dumb and did something wrong. Added some more screenshots to the above album. It's just a copy of Silithus.

    But the true question is: do these panda-orc hybrids have a straight back?

    Hmm, I wonder if they scrapped it or postponed or just no one was able to check it out properly.
    I mean, the map is in, trigger is in, scenario is in...

    Azeroth's Warning
    Step 01: Speaking with the Speaker (New) - Find Magni.
    Step 02: Dreams Beyond Dreams (New) - A number of invaders have appeared inside the facility, triggering its defenses. You will not be able to proceed without defeating them first.
    Step 03: The Stuff of Nightmares (New) - The visions have overwhelmed the defenses. Reactivate the sentries and defeat any adversaries in order to proceed.
    Step 04: Night Terror (New) - The defenses are active, but one final nightmare has appeared to block your path. It must be defeated.
    Step 05: Dark Revelations (New) - Speak with Magni to hear Azeroth's warning.
    Step 06: A Word of Warning (New) - Hear Azeroth's warning.
    Crimea is Ukraine!

    The WDT only has 1 adt, so if you were to load in server-side the area in the last 3 screenshots is the only place you'd be able to run around in.

    Possibly something for the 8.0 prepatch.. Azeroth warns us about something happening at Kul'tiras and that's why we go there?
