The Burning of Teldrassil Intro on Battle for Azeroth Alpha

Recommended Posts

The Burning of Teldrassil intro is now available on Battle for Azeroth Alpha. The most recent build added a portion of the scenario that results in the Battle for Lordaeron.

The Burning of Teldrassil Intro

It all starts with Anduin offering the initial quest in Stormwind Keep.

A Short-Lived Peace

<Player Name>

As the Legion's presence wanes from our world, a new threat has arisen. It is with a heavy heart that I must ask you to lay your life down for the Alliance once more.

I have received a disturbing message from our operatives stationed in Orgrimmar. It seems that the Warchief has already began spinning the gears of war.

I await your arrival at Stormwind Keep to discuss matters further.

You, as my father's champion, have fought bravely in the name of the Alliance time and time again. For that, I owe you a great debt of gratitude.

The Horde Uprising

Reports have indicated that the Horde is mobilizing an army towards Silithus. Given the potential that azerite has to change the face of war, it should come as no surprise that the Warchief would want to lay her claim on it.

The only surprise is that it has begun so soon. The Horde and the Alliance have both suffered unimaginable losses on Argus.

Speak with Mathias Shaw. I want you to oversee Stormwind's presence in Silithus.

<Master Mathias Shaw appears>

Quote

Master Mathias Shaw says: <Player Name>! Your majesty -- wait! I have received new information!

A Disturbance in Ashenvale

The Horde! They diverted at the North fork of the Barrens! They have marched on Ashenvale!

Most of Malfurion's troops have already set sail for Silithus, but Darnassus has sent its city guards to help reinforce Astranaar. Their captain goes by the name of Delaryn Summermoon.

Find her, <Player Name>. Hold the city for as long as you can. King Anduin and I will send a fleet as soon as we can muster.

Now you must take the boat to Darnassus from Stormwind Harbor and fly from Rut'theran Village to Astranaar. Once you enter Astranaar, you'll see the village on fire and notice a bunch of Night Elf corpses that have been poisoned by Rogues.

Quote

Captain Delaryn Summermoon says: I... it was too late. I... couldn't save them... Anaris... what did they do to you? By the location of the bodies, I think the town was taken by surprise. The guards were poisoned where they stood. Rogues. Then, they rounded up the civilians in the center of the city and... it is such a horrific thought. I'm sorry, who are you again? Are you the one that Malfurion spoke of?

The Light of Elune

My sisters lie slain on the soft earth of Ashenvale. We are trained to expect losses in battle, but I have never seen something so horrific -- something so -- cowardly. The Horde have sunk to a new low in this war.

We do not have time to grieve, but we are not savages as the horde have proven to be.

Please, <Player Name>, will you help me say a prayer to Elune so that we may honor the fallen? Their wisps deserve the light of her blessing.

The next step is to honor the bodies of the fallen soldiers in Astranaar. This quest is really simple. All you need to do is to click six corpses.

A Soft Glow

This light of the wisps... it is all around us. Why does the forest awaken?

I hear... something. That sounds -- could it be our Shan'do?

Quickly, <Player Name>, Malfurion beckons!

You go to Twilight Vale, where you find fallen Orgrimmar Raiders, Sylvanas and Malfurion. Malfurion roots everyone and the Horde soldiers try to rush through the wall of wisps and attack, but get killed in the process.

Quote

Malfurion Stormrage yells: You will make it no further, Banshee Queen!

Lady Sylvanas Windrunner yells: Soldiers -- no -- do not rush the --!!!

Malfurion informs you that you can pass through the wall unharmed while Sylvanas escapes.

Quote

Malfurion Stormrage says: You may pass through the wall unharmed, <Player Name>. The wisps will not harm you.

Lady Sylvanas Windrunner yells: There will be nowhere to run next time we meet, Malfurion!

To Darnassus!

The Warchief has come for us. I knew this day would come.

Our forces have been gathered in Darnassus, though many of them have already set sail for Silithus. Meet with Shandris Feathermoon and alert her of the Warchief's presence.

Elune be with you, <Player Name>.

<Captain Delarym Summermoon appears>

Quote

Captain Delaryn Summermoon says: Shan'do! I came as quickly as I could! I saw the Warchief headed towards Zoram'gar oupost.

Malfurion Stormrage says: She has come for us, Delaryn. The Warchief has come to capture the World Tree.

Captain Delaryn Summermoon says: Our troops, Shan'do -- Tyrande sent them to defend our outpost in Silithus days ago.

You learn that most of the Alliance troops have been sent to Silithus and the Alliance may be outnumbered and not able to defend Teldrassil. Go to Darnassus and find Shandris Feathermoon to tell her that the Horde have invaded Darkshore.

Quote

Shandris Feathermoon says: We must take action! Sentinels, forward face! Fourth Fleet, you are to reinforce the southern border of Darkshore! Bring the Glaive Throwers! Fifth Fleet, create a ley line at the Wildbend River! Rouse our allies at the Grove of the Ancients! Hippogryph Archers, come with me -- we will regroup in Lor'danel and remain vigilant as a mobile response unit! That leaves you, hero. Report back to Captain Summermoon and reinforce that border! I have something that can help.

The intro ends here, with the requirements to mount a fey dragon and slay 50 Horde soldiers.

The Horde and the Alliance have both suffered unimaginable losses on Argus.

What?      What Horde?   You could count the number of Horde NPCs on the Vindicar and Argus together with one hand.

The game is not representative of what actually happened in the story. All the forces of Azeroth visited Argus. Major ones, that is.

I am extremely pleased they are showing both sides of the initial conflict from both factions (hopefully).  

I said it a while ago they needed a scenario like Lordaeron for both sides, one winning and one losing.  

GG Blizz.  For Reals.

If I die before the end of the WoW storyline, I want my dwarf npc stuck in somewhere in this kind of scenario singing "Here we go, here we go, here we fuckin' go" while spamming /rude and /moon at the Horde

      Executive Producer Holly Longdale teased some upcoming experimental PvE-focused content that Blizzard will soon reveal to the community.
      It appears that Plunderstorm isn't the only new mode Blizzard plans to add to WoW this year.
      Holly Longdale today teased an upcoming PvE-oriented event that will soon be revealed to us. Holly might be talking about the "Timerunning Pandamonium," expected in Patch 10.2.7.
      (Source)
      Greetings Citizens of Azeroth,
      It’s been great seeing so many players taking the plunge into Plunderstorm and we’ve loved seeing all of the stories and feedback as this experimental event evolves. It will be exciting to see some of the community content creators going head-to-head as duos during the Plunderstorm Creator Royale on March 30!  This isn’t the end of the things we want to try in World of Warcraft, however, and we have more in store we can’t wait to show you.
      Dragonflight Season 4 is in route as testing begins on the PTR and we’ll have more news to share soon™ on the next experiment we have up our sleeves. We hope those of you who are looking for PvE focused content will enjoy what we’re planning, all while we continue to press forward on development of our next expansion for World of Warcraft— The War Within.
      We can’t wait to share with you all the many things the team has been hard at work on.
      With gratitude and excitement for what we’ll do together next,
      Holly Longdale

      We've looked at the Mythic+ Tier List for the first time in Patch 10.2.6!
      DISCLAIMER
      The following post is based on data from U.GG. Therefore, the data presented here may differ from Petko's Mythic Tier Lists maintained on our site.

The tier list of each spec is determined by its effectiveness and prevalence at the highest levels of Mythic+ play.
