Where in Warcraft: Oh, it's so on!
Right. So the last edition of Where in Warcraft I thought was a little bit harder. None of my WoW-playing friends knew where it was just from the picture -- but you, WoW Insider readers, you're just too darn good! The first correct response was from Marcscgm, who correctly identified the chap's final resting place south of Forge Camp Fear and west of Oshugun, even going so far as to provide coordinates! Well done there, that man! I salute you for your Nagrand knowledge and would like to present you with a ceremonial book and wine goblet, with a lovely rock plinth to enjoy them on. But it seems we need to get far more serious here, people. You know your way around too well, and it's just no fun if it isn't difficult (well, no fun for me, anyhow!). I want to be the diabolical quizmaster, OK? So, this next edition represents a little jump up in difficulty; we're creeping up gradually. As the title suggests, it's so on! I will find a place nobody gets, eventually! This submission is from the lovely Eiji, and it's a cave. Oh, yes. I went there. A cave with a rock outside it with a paladin on it. No more clues! And I loved the suggestion of blocking out parts of the picture! If I'm not successful in my attempts to confound you, I will definitely start doing that. So a recap: Guessing an entire zone is no good. I have to be able to find my way to this location with your directions. Coordinates are great, but not a requirement! Happy hunting. There's so much in Azeroth (and Outland!) just waiting to be found. Tip us off. If you've found a fabulously quirky landmark, hidden treasure, or special hideaway somewhere in Warcraft, drop me a line at olivia@wowinsider.com with your screenshot. You could be featured in a future edition of Where in Warcraft!
Where in Warcraft: The Too Easy edition
"Too easy!" is a strange saying that crops up in parts of Australia as a response to "thanks for your help" -- too easy, they say, to point out how minimal a disturbance to their lives that effort was. It's a strange response. Last week's image was clearly far too easy! Or was it? Most of you correctly identified that it was in Terokkar -- but people, guessing an entire zone is no good. You need to be way more specific than that. Those who said it was part of the druid flight form quest were spot on, well done! But if you reckoned it was in the Skettis area, that was a swing and a miss -- sorry. The earliest correct commenter was Silversol1209, who correctly identified it as the shrine of the eagle adjacent to Lake Jorune, near Stonebreaker Hold. Congratulations, Silversol1209! I tip my hat (with an eagle that looks like an owl on it) to you. This week's edition comes to us courtesy of Niunsul of Ravenholdt (US), who emailed me this great spot. I don't know what got this poor guy in the end, but I'm comforted that he had his book, his wine, and an amazing view at his final resting place. But the question is, where is it? Guessing a whole zone is not good enough; I have to be able to guide myself to this exact spot with your response. If nobody has got it 24 hours after the post is published, I'll be in the comments with a clue, so keep your eyes open! Get out there, and get hunting! It's somewhere in Warcraft -- but where? There's so much in Azeroth (and Outland!) just waiting to be found. Tip us off.
