和阿尔萨斯/巫妖王的初次接触会发生在龙骨荒野（71-75级地区），但你没法和他战斗。冰冠城堡（阿尔萨斯的老巢）会在WotLK上线之后的某个版本——不会是最后一个——开放。
* Even if you'll be able to meet him as soon as you reach Dragonblight (LVL 71-75), the final encounter against Arthas won't be until the last patch of the Lich King cycle. The Icecrown Citadel, will appear after launch. (Eurogamer.net)
在龙骨荒野中，你将——暴力地——和血色十字军重逢。同样，这里有许多短程的RAID（类似黑龙和戈鲁尔），你将和五色巨龙决战。
* Dragonblight will also let you reunite (violently) with the Scarlet Crusade. (Eurogamer.net)
玩家在灰熊山地区会遇见许多老朋友——熊怪，风险投资公司，狗头人以及狼人。
* Players will meet a lot of monsters from Classic WoW in the Grizzly Hills, including Furbolgs, Kobolds, the Venture Company, and Worgen Werewolves. (Eurogamer.net)
阿鲁高被复活了，现在他领导着灰熊山的狼人。
* Arugal has been resurrected and now leads the Worgen Werewolves in Grizzly Hills. (Eurogamer.net)
在灰熊山，你会见到联盟首都——铁炉堡的邪恶镜像。
* In Grizzly Hills, you will also find an evil sister city to the Alliance capital, Ironforge. (Screenshot ?) (Eurogamer.net)
“银色黎明”阵营将在祖尔德拉克重新出现。祖尔德拉克是一个巨大的冰巨魔建造的金字塔，冰巨魔在和天灾的战斗中失去了首领和理智，疯狂地攻击所有人。这里的副本是达克塞隆要塞。
* The Argent Dawn faction returns in Zul'Drak. (Eurogamer.net)
在索拉扎盆地，你将会卷入两个声望阵营之间的战争——狼族（有人性的狼）以及神谕者（据说是一种进化了的鱼人！？）。BLZ保证在这个地区冲声望不会太难，因为玩家们将被鼓励，努力打败另一阵营以获得声望。
* In Sholazar Basin, you'll take part in a faction-reputation war between the Wolvar (sentient wolves) and Oracles ("the next evolution of the Murlocs" - a worrying thought). A much lighter take on reputation gaming is promised here, with players actively encouraged to defect to the other side at will. (Eurogamer.net)
资料片中将拥有一大堆的“坐骑任务”作为对TBC投弹的增强——从马背上向狼人投掷燃烧弹，从用直升飞机空运补给，当然——猛犸对战！
* The expansion will contain a lot of "vehicle quests" as an evolution of BC's bombing runs - throwing flaming oil at Worgen from horseback, airlifting supplies in a gyrocoptor, and yes, mammoth wrangling. (Eurogamer.net)
