Some of my richest memories are from Wailing Caverns. I remember following the launch of Vanilla WoW, Wailing Caverns felt like serious business to me.

"Wow, this is WAY deeper than Ragefire Chasm, we're getting into the mid-game here!"

 

Runs in Wailing Caverns back in Vanilla could sometimes bleed into hours, as some people would get lost, hunters would run out of ammo, at least 1 person would miss that cliff jump and become MIA for 25 minutes, etc.

 

GOOD TIMES. BAD TIMES. BUT TIMES NONETHELESS.

Dungeons in general were quite an undertaking back then.
Building a group could itself take hours, then all flying to get there, then clearing the dungeon assuming all went well.
People persevered more through wipes back then but people getting tired and leaving wasnt uncommon either.

People were also incredibly bad back then, present speaker included.

And some dungeons were outrageously long, BFD, WC, Mauraudon and especially gnomeregan were nothing short of an exercise in masochism.

It all makes for some great memories, but i dont let nostalgia fool me, no matter how terrible some proclaim retail is i'll take it over vanilla or "classic" 10 times out of 10.

      Earthen Allied Race Dances and Customization Options
      By Staff
      The new War Within Allied Races was added to the Alpha today and we already have a full look at not only all their customization options, but their dances as well, courtesy of MrGM! You can check out the Earthen's racial abilities here if you missed them earlier. 
      Let's start with the more dynamic feature, with both male and female dances:
      And then there's big amount of customization options, as well as a size comparison with regular dwarves:

      So, are we liking the new Allied Race overall? More than actual dwarves?

      Warband Members in Follower Dungeons?
      By Staff
      Here's a really cool possibility for the War Within, as a very subtle and mildly mysterious comment from Executive Producer and Vice President for WoW, Holly Longdale, may be hinting at our Warband characters getting a lot more involved in our travels! 
      First spotted by UlthansWrath, Longdale came up to Taliesin & Evitel at the recent London War Within Alpha press event and had a short chat about the Warband screen, when she casually said "wouldn't it be cool if those were the characters you took as your followers in your Follower Dungeons?" After the obvious confirmation from Taliesin and Evitel that, yes, yes it would be cool, she just said "hm" and that was the end of the conversation.
      Obviously this isn't any sort of official confirmation, but considering this is a really awesome idea, it seems likely Blizzard are at the very least discussing it, if not already working on it.

      The Warband system is already great, and this would add a lot to it for players that choose to go solo into dungeons, as it would give them even more motivation to get some great characters in their Warband - even if it was just a cosmetic option.
      So, what do you think, will we be seeing this feature when the War Within launches?

      April 25 (Source)
      Classes
      Fixed a bug with damage dealt by Rip and Tear, Internal Combustion, and Tear Open Wounds in Awakened raids. Dungeons and Raids
      Raid Finder now required item level 463 if the raid is Awakened. Brackenhide Hollow Addressed an issue where Stinkbreath can turn while casting Stinkbreath. Addressed an issue where Wilted Oak’s Necrotic Breath visual can be out of sync with the creature’s facing. Items
      Veteran track items or items obtained from Awakened Outdoor Activities should now properly be able to be converted into Class Set items at the Revival Catalyst. Resolved multiple issues with Dragonflight Season 4 tier set items not functioning after equipping certain Season 3 set items. Dreambound gear caches from the Dreamsurge Coalesence vendor will now correctly award Season 4 Explorer 1/8 (item level 454 gear) and tokens will properly display the correct item level of its contents.
