In the coming week, on July 12th, the closed beta for World of Warcraft Classic will end for the time being until the final stress test. The developers deliberately left out the exciting endgame so as not to show too much in advance. But we still don’t miss the opportunity to show you archive pictures of the Western and Eastern Plaguelands from 2005 for the weekend – enjoy!
In the World of Warcraft Classic, the Western and Eastern Plaguelands and the dungeons located there, Scholomance and Stratholme, are among the most atmospheric content. Nowhere else in the game is there more tension than the Tirisfal Glades – Plaguelands border. You can feel the presence of Arthas, the boss in the second WoW expansion Wrath of the Lich King, with every step you take. The Western and Eastern Plaguelands contain a number of unforgettable highlights such as the quests for Tirion Fordring, Chromie, Pamela Redpath, Farmer Dalson or the four plague cauldrons and a panopticon of (elite) monstrosities with some legendary strong abilities.
In the gallery below you’ll find images from 2005 and 2006, showing the Western and Eastern Plaguelands in their pristine glory before Cataclysm struck here, too, significantly diminishing the intense spooky atmosphere. When WoW Classic comes out in August, you’ll literally be able to enjoy the unforgettable Plaguelands to the fullest again – don’t forget to take a deep breath! 😉
