APPROVED!

Kommentar von Vrominelli

Oh my sweet merciful crap yes!
I don't care if it's just a mini "fly over zone" or an actual questing zone we need this!

Kommentar von Jorgee9001

I remember a blue post saying that archaeology would be divided into several different branches, such as dwarves, trolls, demons, etc... but there was also one for Nerubians. Now, I can't remember how much relation they have to the silithid because I'm not an hardcore lore-nut, but with the revealing of the Scepter of Az'Aqir on MMO-Champion (which gives some sort of mount), this zone may be intended to be for archaeology and lore on the silithid... maybe.

If we ignore the itzy, bitzy, tiny matter of an Old God havng been ressurected by a two headed has-been ogre... then...

Do. Want.

Kommentar von Nulgar

*edit* Well by now it's clear that this is merely a new name for the area south of Silithus, including the area just in front of AQ20 and AQ40 with their shared summoning stone, but also an outdoor copy of AQ20 which you can fly over. The zone was formerly labelled only as "Ahn'Qiraj", its own zone with its own "General" channel, similar to the entrance area of Dire Maul and the inside of the Blackrock mountain.

If the comic becomes canon (and it probably will be, as voiceover for Garona implicating this was datamined) then we can expect more involvement of the Twilight's Hammer here, working with C'thun's dead body (no idea why it wasn't destroyed after adventurers killed him)

Maybe it's going to be the late patch daily questing hub? If it's not it seems a bit late to be announcing it now.

Kommentar von 371504

This is relevant to my interests.

Also.

Oh noes, Med'an!

Kommentar von Azerox

Looking good, this is good stuff!

Kommentar von 650974

...And it's big too

Kommentar von Elamite

Hoping this zone will be anywhere from an 80 to 85 leveling zone, even though the odds are it won't be, but we can dream right? This zone is just too awesome.

Kommentar von 650974

Would be kinda cool to make this a high level phasing zone ^^

Kommentar von 562564

Just a few things here, I honestly hope they make bug mounts ridable here. I know their original purpose was only for navigation in the 40 man temple, but it would still be awesome to show off your Ferrari bugs.

ALSO: For those of you worried that the Ruins/Temple of Ahn Qiraj is going bye bye, don't be. If it was, blizzard wouldn't have added these achievements.

Of course this is the beta and all information is subject to change, but for the time being, old school raiders can rejoice!

Kommentar von kdbug12348

ooooh. Dis could be good. My poor worgen/goblin/80's that will never get anywhere. Im soooo spending the first month of cata just re-exploring everything

Kommentar von 156062

Mumper confirmed on September 13th via Bluepost that the Ruins of Ahn'Qiraj will be a 10-man raid

Kommentar von Dragoonman

Woot, AQ20 is gonna be AQ10!

Kommentar von robertsim007

As of the latest build, you can finally fly over this zone without getting dismounted. Pretty much, start at the raid portals and go south, you just get an empty overhead view of Ahn'Qiraj... I'd guess if anything it'd be for Archaeology.

Kommentar von 626581

Is this going to be a new instance or something like a raid?

Kommentar von veemo

This is totaly new map not a part of Silithus, the link http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100715095306/wowwiki/images/d/db/Kalimdor3.jp

You are wrong. The map is in game, did you ever wonder whats behind AQ?
I ve glitched wall and got behind aq20 portal after it ijust went with the wind.
The area is a big desertwith 2 giant obelisks and 3 hives.

Kommentar von 664823

Sooo hoping the rumors that Twilight's Cult will be doing some wacko experiments with C'Thun s body here @.o :D I can already imagine the quest "Blow the Old body" xD

Kommentar von 134622

If only I could set my hearthstone here /wistful sigh

Kommentar von 626581

Is this going to be a raid?

Kommentar von 442374

On the south (42.2,93.9) is entrance in big cave / dungeon.
All area is empty, except bones lying all around.

Kommentar von 721642

They should do to AQ what they did with Onyxia. But, Leave EVERYTHING the same just buff it up and make it awesome. teach people how to raid for reals again.

Kommentar von Wani

Seems the Tauren village to the south of this zone, on the coastline is gone. :( Damn. I liked that bit.

Kommentar von 52272

I believe they just added this just to flush everything out with the addition of being able to fly in Classic WoW.

Would of been quite odd to see the entrance to AQ then you fly over and there is just....nothing there lol. Though is is eerie being all empty and such. Atleast its geography and such is correct.

Kommentar von 118464

^ Actually, Deathraven, this wasn't just added in for aesthetic value.

It was hinted at BlizzCon by Chris Metzen that Deathwing isn't acting on his own accord. Whether he realizes or not, there is someone pulling the strings. I won't give away the spoiler, but Metzen actually revealed who it was, and that we would see them later on in this expansion. The fact AQ was revamped into a whole new zone should give you a good idea of the 'type' of creature responsible for Deathwing being unleashed on Azeroth.

Fact of the matter is, the battle with the Old Gods is far from over...

Kommentar von Eighjan

C'Thun coming back, but stronger...?

Kommentar von MoarHeroisms

As simple speculation, it's possible this zone will stage a continuation of the Tol'vir storyline from Uldum, delving deeper into their origins and how their history in AQ could affect their decisions in the present.

I'm not sure whether or not the Tol'vir, as a people, are aware that some of their kind were corrupted by the Qiraji becoming servants to the Old Gods. Perhaps a revelation discovered in the fallen kingdom could lead to an advantage in the battle against Deathwing.

Or this zone could just be for aesthetics. We'll have to wait and see.

Kommentar von 146076

Current speculation suggests that this will be re-used in a similar way that Zul'Gurub is destined for: Housing a redesigned dungeon during a later content patch. Time will tell.

Kommentar von 627828

I'm guessing the zone will be a mid-cata event like the Rise of the Zandalari.. We know Deathwing is C'thun's pet and the Twilight Hammer are his cult so logically his Silithid minions are probably going to be on the move at some point in Cata as well.

There is still, after all, one zone on the Azeroth world map which is inaccessible. In the northern part of the Eastern Kingdoms between W. plaguelands, E. Plagulands and Ghostlands. Now its logically mountains.. but still.. means that they werent trying to just make every zone flyable.

If we're really lucky maybe the Tol'Vir will attempt to retake their fallen kingdom and will get some new Egyptian-themed stuff and less Indiana Jones junk.. on the other hand there is that Crystal Skull I've been meaning to return to that temple in Ahn'Qiraj..

Kommentar von kathrhin

The zone you are talking about, at least, in terms of in game lore, is Northeron, and it has been inactive for quite some time, although, some believe that this may have simply been what the hinterlands were known as, or it could even possibly have been the Twilight highlands, since Kurdran Wildhammer was said to be from there, in R.A.K's book.

The thing that really intrigues me is the fact that, since launch, there hasn't really been any archaeology points in Silithus, or the Fallen kingdom, BUT, in the Eastern plaguelands, there IS an area to the south west of Stratholme that yields nerubian artifacts. For those who don't know their lore, the Nerubian and Qiraji were once the same race, the Aqir. But then, I can't see Blizz being that imaginative, really.

Kommentar von Bianconeri

It seems that no-one has mentioned this, but it is actually possible to enter C'thuns Chamber in-world. How?

I will try to fraps it or something, you simply bug through the wall near the Propher Skeram (In the world zone, not the raid) as usual, and once you are under AQ head towards C'thuns Chamber, once you are underneath it, mount your flying mount and you can fly through the floor and be dismounted in C'thuns Chamber.

This is interesting because the chamber looks so different to the one in the raid, it's "uncorrupted" and is decorated with green highligts running across the floor, also there is some nice lighting. In general it looks like a proper temple and is kind of nice. Now, it makes me wonder why there is an alternate design of his chamber? Is it post or pre-C'thun?

Kommentar von Catriona

Do C'thun's whispers ever happen in this outdoor version? The silence here if one doesn't have music on is so eerie; like the entire zone is holding its breath. I keep expecting YOUR HEART WILL EXPLODE to come roaring through my speakers at any moment.

Kommentar von 967432

This place is still awesome, and I still haven't got the red mount :)!

Kommentar von 967432

Shame they removed the black mount!

Kommentar von adashiel

If they're planning for further development of this zone, there have been no hints of it thus far in Mists of Pandaria. However, if you are into pet battles, it has Skarabäusjungtier and Seitenwinder-Klapperschlange spawns that don't have adds when you battle them. So, if you were to battle a Scarab Hatchling, for example, you'd only have to fight the hatchling itself. One thing to note, however, pets battled in this zone do not count as Silithus for Zähmer von Kalimdor.(##RESPBREAK##)2056##DELIM##adashiel##DELIM##

Kommentar von FiachDubhe

I hope they're going to do something with this zone in the future.
Does anyone know if there are any speculations?

The entrance to Die Ruinen von Ahn'Qiraj can be found at the coordinates 59 14.
The entrance to Ahn'Qiraj can be found at the coordinates 47 7.5.

Kommentar von BaraPawaka

Should this be updated? Ahn' Qiraj could already be reached by foot at the southwest of Silithus

Kommentar von Eommus

I was exploring southern parts of the zone and stumbled into an Elementium Vein at 56.8 - 93.1 coordinates, about
a hundred meters away from Uldum.
