Mage Joins Into The Battle For Undercity Event
Preparing for The Battle For UndercityHeck, it only took three toons to finally find the cool Dragonblight quest sequence I’d heard about from a whole bunch of guildmates and online WoW friends…
But finally, my third toon to 80 - my Mage - did enough of the right quests in Dragonblight to get to join in and see the Battle for Undercity event.
How Come Alliance And Horde Could Suddenly Talk?
That’s my first question after coming through that Event session.
You see, the Event itself starts with a cut scene (you know, one of those damned cool movie events that fire up unexpectedly and you just sit back and watch - or hit escape to cancel it, I’d suppose) in Dragonblight, where the Alliance and Horde forces band together to battle against Vyrkul’s and Forsaken-like creatures.
Ultimately, after tearing his minions to pieces in a combined Horde/Alliance effort, they face The Lich King himself, only to be interrupted by Varimathrus who normally exists in the bowels of Undercity, but has now risen up with his Forsaken army and taken it over.
It’s all very cool, of course, but how come they all talk the same language all of a sudden, with no translators??
Once the cut scene ends, you’re able to re-watch it by activating an object that is nearby, just in case you weren’t ready for it and had your sound off, for example.
From there, however, the quest line continues and has you go to Undercity itself to meet Thrall and Lady Sylvanas in order to begin the Battle For Undercity.
It’s like the Death Knight starting area ending event in terms of starting up, too - once you start the quest with Thrall outside Undercity you have to wait for 5 minutes to give an opportunity for others to join in on the same battle before the event actually begins.
Once it begins, the battles are truly epic, and I’m sure there’s lots of opportunity to die, so try to stay behind Thrall and Lady Sylvanas, okay?
