Commentaire de Ravencrofts

Triste précision depuis Cataclysm :
Après cette magnifique séquence, Alexstrasza vous demandera de venir la voir en vous chuchotant. Mais elle ne vous donnera aucune quête ... Enfaite, depuis Cataclysm, la libération de Fossoyeuse a été retiré, c'est vraiment dommage car c'était une belle série de quêtes !

La série de quête débute avec :

Part of the Horde questline for the Wrath Gate event. This quest line is very long and spans the entire length of Dragonblight. Quite honestly, I consider this one of the most important quest lines (thus far) in Wrath. A must-do for any hordeling. :)

In quite a few of these chains there are optional prequests. I will not list these, despite them being in the quest series list, because they are just that: Optional. I will list the LATEST quest available that will start the chain, or the one most likely to pick up while completing other parts of this chain.

Additionally, these quests are Horde Only. I, unfortunately, do not have an Alliance character on the Beta, so I do not have access to any alliance quests. Sorry!

Step names are purely flavor. They generalize what that part of the chain leads up to/is about.

I highly urge everyone to read the quest text. This quest line is quite possibly one of the most epic in Warcraft history and is highly worth the time. Lore lovers and haters alike should enjoy them.

Step 1: Recruiting the Taunka

1.) Into the Fold
2.) Blood Oath of the Horde
3.) Agmar's Hammer

Step 2: Destroy the Nerubians

1.) Victory Nears...
2.) From the Depths of Azjol-Nerub
3.) The Might of the Horde
4.) Attack by Air!
5.) Blightbeasts be Damned

Step 3: Annexing the Taunka

1.) Strength of Icemist
2.) Chains of the Anub'ar
3.) Return of the High Chief
4.) All Hail Roanauk!

Step 4: The Forsakens New Plague

1.) Imbeciles Abound!
2.) The Forsaken Blight and You: How Not to Die
3.) Emerald Dragon Tears
4.) Spread the Good Word
5.) The Forsaken Blight

Step 5: The Red Dragonflight

1.) The Kor'kron Vanguard!
2.) Audience With The Dragon Queen
3.) Galakrond and the Scourge
4.) On Ruby Wings

Step 6: Victory Over the Scourge?

1.) Return to Angrathar
BONUS! Wrath Gate In-Game Cinematic/Machinima outside link to view it
BONUS! Achievement: Veteran of the Wrath Gate!

Step 7: The Betrayal

1.) Darkness Stirs
2.) Herald of War
3.) A Life Without Regret
4.) The Battle for the Undercity

Experience and Reputation totals will be filled in when more information is available.

I just got this and OMFG THAT WAS AWESOME. Get this you will not be disappointed

Commentaire de 203015

I implore everyone to get this achievement. The cutscene when passing in the quest is simple amazing. Some fantastic lore and all around cinematography.

Commentaire de Dethecus

Wow, just WOW! Blizzard once again raising the bar for MMORPG's. That was an amazing and unexpected cinematic that made me really appreciate the effort they have put into Wotlk :)

Commentaire de Arno00

EVERYONE should do this ! The cinematic is juste wtfpwning awesome !

And somehow ... sad ... :'(

Commentaire de ktnb

For the Alliance! Here are the quest steps you need to go through for this achievement. "Optional" quests are those that can be done with the main quests with little to no extra effort.

Like the Horde version, I cannot recommend enough that you take the time to read the quest text. Seriously, this is one of the best questlines in the game, hands down. It's worth taking the extra time to read everything.

Part 1:

1) The Lost Courier
2) Of Traitors and Treason
3) High Commander Halford Wyrmbane
4) Naxxramas and the Fall of Wintergarde
5) Flight of the Wintergarde Defender
6) Return to the High Commander

At this point, the High Commander will give you two quests.

Part 2a:

1) Rescue from Town Square (optional: The Fate of the Dead)
2) Find Durkon!
3) The Noble's Crypt
4) Secrets of the Scourge (obtained from the tome to the right of Necrolord Amarion)
5) Mystery of the Tome
6) Understanding the Language of Death
7) A Righteous Sermon

Part 2b:

1) The Demo-gnome
2) The Search for Slinkin (optional: The Bleeding Ore and Not in Our Mine)
3) Leave Nothing to Chance
4) Understanding the Scourge War Machine

Then, everything meets up again at the High Commander, and you go back to one line of quests.

Part 3:
1) Into Hostile Territory
2) Steamtank Surprise
3) Scattered to the Wind
4) The Chain Gun And You
5) Plunderbeard Must Be Found! (optional: Breaking Off A Piece)
6) Plunderbeard's Journal
7) Chasing Icestorm: The 7th Legion Front
8) Chasing Icestorm: Thel'zan's Phylactery
9) Finality

Part 4:
1) An End And A Beginning
2) To Fordragon Hold!
3) Audience With The Dragon Queen
4) Galakrond and the Scourge
5) On Ruby Wings
6) Return To Angrathar

As soon as you complete the last quest, you will be shown the Wrath Gate cinematic, and when it's over, you'll receive the achievement. If you want to finish the questline, it's only five more quests:

1) Reborn From The Ashes
2) Fate, Up Against Your Will
3) A Royal Coup
4) The Killing Time
5) The Battle For The Undercity

Commentaire de Antman

Whoa! This was awsome! I want more of this cool cinematics.
btw dont forget your sound when u turn in this quest!

Commentaire de 149471

Sunsmoon did a great job on the Horde questline for the Veteran of the Wrathgate achivement that I thought an Alliance one was in order. I stumbled into it and completed it without knowing what I was getting myself into, and I have to say it was an amazing storyline. Like Sunsmoon says, do yourself a favor and read the quests to soak up all the lore.

Step 1: Ashes....

1. The Shining Light
2. Guided by Honor

Step 2: Journey to Wintergarde

1. The Lost Courier
2. Of Traitors and Treason
3. High Commander Halford Wyrmbane
4. Naxxramas and the Fall of Wintergarde
5. Flight of the Wintergarde Defender
6. Return to the High Commander
7. Rescue from Town Square
8. Find Durkon!
9. The Noble's Crypt

Step 3: Wintergarde Recon and Demolitions

1. The Demo-gnome
2. The Search for Slinkin
3. Leave Nothing to Chance

Step 4: The Ghost of Arthas

1. Imprints on the Past
2. Orik Trueheart and the Forgotten Shore
3. The Murkweed Elixir
4. The Forgotten Tale
5. The Truth Shall Set Us Free
6. Parting Thoughts
7. What Secrets Men Hide
8. Frostmourne Cavern

Step 5: Defending Wintergarde

1. Into Hostile Territory
2. Steamtank Surprise
3. Scattered To The Wind
4. The Chain Gun And You
5. Plunderbeard Must Be Found!
6. Plunderbeard's Journal
7. Chasing Icestorm: The 7th Legion Front
8. Chasing Icestorm: Thel'zan's Phylactery
9. Finality

Step 6: The Red Dragonflight

1. An End and a Beginning
2. To Fordragon Hold
3. Audience with the Dragon Queen
4. Galakrond and the Scourge
5. On Ruby Wings

Step 7: Victory Over the Scourge?

Return to Angrathar

And of course, you earn the Achievement: Veteran of the Wrath Gate!

Having completed this chain already, it's difficult for me to vet it. I think there may be a few optional quests in here, but they are certainly all a part of the story. Feel free to factcheck these and add to it.

Commentaire de bsvictor

Best questline in the game.

Commentaire de Syrio

You can always rewatch the cinematic by talking to Alexstrasza's dragon form in front of the gate.

Commentaire de 153995

My eyes welled up with manly tears as I watched this cinematic.

Commentaire de VanPelt

Absolutly Best Quest line EVER! I wish blizz made it a requirement instead of just an achievement. the quests that follow(at least for alliance side) Is extremely awesome and fun as well. you get to attack the Undercity with Jaina and the King of SW :) Very fun and exciting quest line.

Commentaire de 251628

Wish it would give you a title...

Commentaire de 105914

XP/Rep through the cinematic (didn't keep track for 'Step 7', doh). In the interest of not typing as much, I didn't type 'xp' or 'rep'. First number (the big one) is xp, 2nd one is rep. Before abbreviating a faction (WO, for instance), I spell it out fully (Warsong Offensive). Totals at the bottom.

Into the Fold - 20,300; 250 Taunka/Warsong Offensive

Blood Oath - 15,250; 150 Taunka/WO

Agmar's Hammer - 15,250; 150 WO

Victory Nears... - 2,050; 10 WO

From the Depths of Azjol-Nerub - 20,300; 250 WO

The Might of the Horde - 20,300; 250 WO

Blightbeasts be Damned! - 20,300; 250 WO

Strength of Icemist - 15,250; 150 Taunka/Horde Expedition

Chains of the Anub'ar - 20,300; 250 Taunka/HE

Return of the High Chief - 30,750; 500 Taunka/HE

All hail Roanauk! - 20,500; 250 WO

The Forsaken Blight and You: How Not to Die - 20,300; 250 Hand of Vengeance

Emerald Dragon Tears - 20,300; 250 HoV

Spread the Good Word - 20,300; 250 HoV

The Forsaken Blight - 15,250; 150 HoV

The Kor'kron Vanguard! - 5,150; 25 WO

Audience With the Dragon Queen - 2,100; 10 Wyrmrest/WO

Galakrond and the Scourge - Nothing

On Ruby Wings - 25,950; 350 Wyrmrest

Return to Angrathar - 31,150; 500 WO

Total XP: 341,050
Total Taunka Rep: 1,300
Total Warsong Offensive Rep: 1,845
Total Hand of Vengeance Rep: 900
Total Wyrmrest Rep: 385
Total Horde Expedition Rep: 2,922 total (900 from quests, plus half of the total from Taunka/WO/HoV rep gains). May actually be 2,923, since the total 'spillover' rep is 2,022.5, and I'm not sure how it's rounded.

EDIT: Added totals

Commentaire de 255157

It's not rounded. Experience and Rep are kept to full decimal places. I'm alliance and play a human and you get an extra 10% rep for any rep gains. What happens if say you get 25 rep for something, you get an extra 10% so you gain 27.5 rep. What it displays in game is it alternates it saying 28 rep, 27 rep 28 rep, etc, if you gain it repeatedly. I've also confirmed it works like this out to atleast two decimal places. So you should put in exactly 2,922.5.

Commentaire de Ringiho

This chain was worth every second!

Was awesome! Great guide at the top. Was right all the way through for me!

Thanks

Commentaire de AxelF

As a lore buff the quest in Wrath are way better then in BC becuase they are mosltly lore related instead of kill this come back quest.

And even with quest like that on a chain at stars rest i was sent to kill a commander named Emma when u kill her she drops 2 items 1 for the quest and 1 to start a hand in quest. that item is a note saying that shes a spy and is working against malganos or her family will die.

On a side not for the few people who would rather turn off the cinamatic cuz they want to lvl and only in it for the xp/rep/achivment doing this chain also "kills" for both horde and alliance Malganis "the deamon that stands next to sylvanus" so if ur going for the achivment "For the Alliance" (killing the horde leaders) you should make sure everyone has done it as if u 40man raid UC and a tank hasent done it he will be fighting malganis while most of the dps can not hit or see him.

Commentaire de 259230

Absolutely... EPIC
If your not doing this questline
your missing out on what makes wotlk well.. wotlk

Commentaire de Dougula

Every dime I spent, every pain in the a## quest, every grind, every hour, all of it was worth this moment! The cimematic was wicked awesome, and then getting up close to both Red Dragons Korialstrasz and Alexstrasza The Life Binder - I'm just geeking out - and nearly speachless. This is THE moment in this game for someone who has read most of the fiction.

Kudos to Blizzard!

From Gunu of Staghelm!

Posted the above BEFORE heading to Orgrimmar/UC for the final legs of this chain. Holy $#!^ Blizz real out did themselves!

Commentaire de slowcom

Great cut scene and great quest line but I have a question.

Why is Arthas so big? Hes HUGE!

Commentaire de 265233

Plus you even get a mention of Broxigar :) This quest line brings the game to a whole new level. Truly EPIC! GJ Blizzard, I hope I get more of these wonderful surprises as I continue through Northrend :)

Commentaire de 265323

I love the chain. I'm going to do it with all my toons.

Commentaire de Saberia

You MUST complete quest line, including "optional" quest line that starts with Reborn From The Ashes, otherwise you will not be able to fight in enemy cities.

I have made a mistake of thinking that movie was the last part of chain, and today I went to Orgimmar to kill Thrall for For The Alliance! achievement. As soon as I entered city, I couldn't see anyone from the raid, all horde npcs stopped attacking me, I couldn't attack anything. It was supposed to be for next part of quest where you need to visit Orgrimmar to talk to Thrall, but its bugged so even without a quest I couldn't do anything until I finished quest line.

Commentaire de 122711

This quest alone is worth the price of the expansion. It's dramatic, powerful, evocative, and really pulls you into the storyline. The phased questing that Blizzard has so masterfully implemented here really gives a feeling of a fluid, moving plot line.

It is a welcome change from just having a static world where nothing changes in between content patches and expansion packs. I would love to see more like this.

Commentaire de 210299

The cinematic blew my mind! From the Horde lending a hand, to the Lich King staggering away, and the majestic dragons soaring down from the horizon...spectacular!

Commentaire de 282235

When finishing the last quest for the achievement: Return To Angrathar.

Please pick up the next quest Reborn From The Ashes from the big red dragon Alexstrasza the Life-Binder who stands in front of the gate.

I did not, and came up with the problem not to see Horde players in de big Horde cities Orgrimmar and Undercity. (I am Alliance.) The guards will not kill you. You can also not kill them. Even the bosses inside are not killeble. So impossible to finish the achievement For The Alliance..

Commentaire de 293654

I went to captain adams and private casey(alliance)and they both didnt have either of the quest that send u to Stars rest and for private casey i did all the quest from Thassarian. any know whats wrong?

Commentaire de Rosebeef11

OMG the cinematic is A-WE-SO-ME!
i luv it!

Commentaire de apokalyps

You can always watch this clip from your computer go to C:\\ ....\World of Warcraft\Data\enGB/US\Interface\Cinematics\WOW_Wrathgate. But I suggest you to do all the quest = more fun and you will understand it.

Commentaire de 239039

I completed it 2day and got the achievment: the whole questchain is awsome, loads of xp, rep and the cinematic is simply kicking ass, the only thing that i found wierd (for me atleast) was that the alliance camp next to the wrathgate is basicly useless after u do the chain (not like u had 2 go there loads of times due to some quest earlyer or w/e), theres 1 gryphon master, bunch of alliance boys and girls running around screaming like little kids, and yeah thats about it, kinda sad =[

Commentaire de 137993

While obviously the movie at the end is epic beyond epicness, i believe it was dragged down a little bit.

I think Highlord Bolvar Fordragon is a pretty cool guy, but, his lack of a helmet made me momentarily falter in my awe for the whole movie.

You see, when they do the close up on his face as he yells at the Lich King, I had to giggle a little bit at the his cartoony facial features inherent to the game .If only they gave him some sort of sweet helmet.

Saurfang Jr. is also awesome of course, but he looked better since he has on his spiky neck-brace thing, plus he had less screen time.

Either way, much epicness was experienced, and i look foward to facing Bolvar and Saurfang the Younger as bosses in Icecrown Citadel (you know thats what's going to happen.)

Commentaire de Senala

Srry to say it, but I found Wrathgate sort of disappointing...

Commentaire de 227638

i completed the quest the lost courier and i got another quest(traitor and treason) and when i clicked accept it say's : u already completed it. its a bug ?

oh and i can't get the next quest.

Commentaire de 287535

When the cinematic began to load up I was convinced the game had crashed...then I was "Oh I remember hearing about this!".

Commentaire de Redhood

I had chills coming up on the back of my spine! I love some lore in the gameplay, GJ Blizz!

Commentaire de 186762

Truly one of the greatest cut-scenes ive ever, well seen.

But, i noticed something, during this epic battle Bolvar and Saurfang speak to each other, does this mean that either Bolvar can speak orcish or Saurfang can speak common?

Im speaking purely from a lore-ish kinda view, not saying anything bad about this truly awsome video, its just food for thought

Commentaire de 334731

This is an AWESOME quest line, Maybe a small title would be nice to anyone with the achievement after all it was alot of work

Commentaire de 335642

can someone post the quests for the alliance side of the questline, please?

Commentaire de quebmb

To anyone alliance side who is saving their ability to go to Org for fishing for old crafty (ie not completing the quest to go to the next step so you can talk to Jaina to open a portal for you again whenever you wish) be wary. This also affects your ability to raid Thrall for the bear mount. I have been doing just that. Going to Jaina for a portal to the empty Org zone so I can fish for old crafty when I have some spare time. Last night I was invited to go on a raid for Org. Upon running there to the back door with the rest of the raid everything was normal, however upon entering myself and the other healer in the raid 'phased'. The rest of the raid disappeared though we could still see their dots on our mini map and we were running around in the empty org instance with no players and NPCs not attacking us...rendering us completely useless to everyone else. Neither of us knew that being on this quest would affect the 'real' Org. We thought the quest just took us to another instance of the city for the quest purposes. Had we known we would have of course declined on the invite to the raid, but hindsight is 20/20.

So just FYI don't try to raid Org if you are still on this part of the quest.

Like an idiot I watch the sequence on youtube before doing the questline.

Please all, don't make the same mistake as me!

Arthhhhhhhaaaaaaaas! *You have been disconnected from the server*

GG blizz.

Went back to watch it again and made it through it only for wow to actually crash with a fatal error.

But thanks to deathknight.info releasing this video before wrath even hit shelves, it was ruined for me a long time ago.

Commentaire de 352410

Worth stating again:

This was a fantastic cutscene, and the lore was great :-)

Maybe a real movie one day...

One can only hope.

Commentaire de Veecious

Late to the party, but I'm just completing the questline and let me tell you: this is the achievement you want to get. This questline is a whole new level of epicness.

Commentaire de socalheel

my friend told me about this movie scene and told me i HAD to get it but he failed to tell me what it was called or provide any information other than "Quest in Dragonblight." LOL

anyway, after 99 completed quests in DB i finally got it. worth every quest.

Commentaire de 374194

such a badass cut scene

Commentaire de Effectrix

Though I doubt someone will read this, do not begin the last group of quests if you still need to start or finish quests with Varimathiras. He will disappear after The battle for the Undercity is completed.

Commentaire de Chaosinfused

don't have to do the quests to watch the cinematic:
in your World of Warcraft folder, go to /Data/enUS/Interface/Cinematics/WOW_Wrathgate_ (800 OR 1024, doesn't matter that much).avi

Commentaire de 403169

Also enemy commanders in alterac valley speak your faction's language, another absurd thing is that forsaken cannot speak common, as they were human after all. Let's add this to the nonsense wall and keep on playing =)

Commentaire de 371504

Most awesome quest chain ever and the cinematic was just awesome.

I should also note that you can get behind the gate of the wrathgate (the place the Lich King comes from) by flying over it and down. Nothing in there but blackness and sadly the gate doesn't open ='( .

Commentaire de 437970

Well, from a horde point of view, the end of this quest line and another cinematic I saw, I have concluded that King Varian(I think its spelled right) is a jerk. :(

Commentaire de 456641

does anyone know if there are more cut scenes like the wrathgate. if so, would like to know where it starts at, so i can see more, the wrathgate was EPIC!

Commentaire de RobertM

Okay, to those who say, "Most awesome cutscene ever." Erm, no. Blizz themselves have done better. It was good and a welcome (and unexpected) addition to WotLK, but it was not that amazing. IMO, anyway. Mass Effect, for instance, blows this away on a regular basis. :) (Nevermind the astounding opening cutscene/preview for the new Star Wars MMO. If you haven't seen it, do yourself a favor and check out The Old Republic's "Betrayal" cutscene. It's amazingly epic.)

Commentaire de Plague669

Great cutscene! I have not been playing WoW for that long so I don't know what has gone on in the past, but this was awesome. My main toon is a forsaken and my absolute favorite part of this scene was when Sylvanas (forgive me if I spelled it wrong) showed up and said "Death to the scourge and death to the living!". Showed the true nature of the forsaken and exactly why I choose to play one.

Yes I realize my mistake after doing the quests in UC after getting the achievment. It was the apothecary that was at the wrathgate and not Sylvanas.

Commentaire de 371504

I agree with you but it's not Sylvanas that shows up, it's Grand Apothecary Putress.

SPOILER WARNING

Bolvar Fordragon does NOT die. We'll see him in Icecrown Citadel.

Commentaire de 490172

Anyone knows why the f*** couldn't i see the cinematic? =(
After a 5 secs. lag or so i got the achievement and saw the place in flames... Then i saw the dragon queen, asked her to tell me what happened, and nothing, just a tiny fps lag, where i suppose the game tried to launch the cinematic, and obviously failed.
I watched it anyways (youtube), and i agree, was awesome. Luckyly I came here to find out...

Commentaire de wildowned1995

Can anyone link me a script there the undead dude says: Death to the Scourge ! And death to the Living ! ?:D would be amaaazing

Commentaire de 438136

I giggled when I saw Gamon's silly self in the middle of the crowd complaining to Overlord Runthak in the phased Orgrimmar. My first instinct was to kill him, but alas, I am saddened to get 'Invalid Target' when I try to do so.

Sadface.

I failed at this. I am an ally and when you were supposed to kill all those things in the crypts I gave up. It was too hard! So then I went to Grizzly Hills and I am VERY jealous of all those people that goes like "ooh its the coolest!" and then I know I missed it... =,(

Commentaire de 558249

Ok 2 things. First thing is that if you are any level over 72 and havent done this quest go slap yourself in the face and go do this quest right now. About the language discussion and such I think its simply all NPCs have a sorta universal language, like how all horde can speak orcish or all alliance can speak common.

Commentaire de 578523

Guys, if you have the achivement, you have to continue to undercity.

DONT! take the UC portal in dala. Cuz you will come in the middle of UC with all the guys. And the lifts are sabotaged so u cant get out.

Commentaire de psytropic21

i found that the battle of the undercity on the alliance side is a bit easier that the battle on the horde side you only have to face 2 on the alliance and 3 on the horde though i have to admit that the worm sucked to fight a lot more than the ones on the horde side because every few seconds the worm will ingest you in which you cant attack or cast spells

Commentaire de 313143

I just thought I'd post the transcript of the cutscene since nobody else posted it. The video of the actual cutscene may be found here.

______________________________________________________________________________________

Highlord Bolvar Fordragon walks among his troops out of the lower level of Fordragon Hold toward the Court of Skulls.

Alliance Soldier 1: Highlord Bolvar! Thank the Light!
Alliance Soldier 2: For Lordaeron!
Alliance Soldier 3: For the Alliance!

Bolvar roars as he and his men charge into the undead.

Highlord Fordragon: Back, you mindless wretches!

The gates open and Scourge vrykul, shouting in their native tongue, charge out as the lesser undead fall back.

Highlord Fordragon: Fight on, brothers!

As the battle continues, Dranosh Saurfang observes the conflict from the ledge of the Kor'kron Vanguard overlooking the field and raises his axe to rally his soldiers.

Dranosh Saurfang: Rise up, sons of the Horde! Blood and glory await us!

Back at the battle, Bolvar glances up at the sound of an orcish horn and Dranosh shouting "Victory or death!" in orcish as he and his troops arrive.

Dranosh Saurfang: Lok'tar ogar! For the Horde!
Horde army: FOR THE HORDE!

Bolvar and Dranosh fight side-by-side.

Highlord Fordragon: I was wondering if you'd show up!
Dranosh Saurfang: I couldn't let the Alliance have ALL the fun today!

Dranosh swings his axe, killing three undead vrykul in one slash. The vrykul forces dispatched, Bolvar and Dranosh approach the gate with their combined army grouped together behind them. Dranosh glances at Bolvar, apparently giving him the lead to speak.

Highlord Fordragon: Arthas! The blood of your father, of your people, demands justice! Come forth, coward, and answer for your crimes!

The gate rumbles and opens again as Dranosh growls, revealing the Lich King, Frostmourne in hand.

The Lich King: You speak of justice? Of cowardice? I will show you the justice of the grave and the true meaning of fear.

As the Lich King approaches, undead legions rise behind him.

Dranosh Saurfang: Enough talk! Let it be finished!

Dranosh charges, roaring. The Lich King swings Frostmourne, shattering Dranosh's axe and killing the orc instantly. Bolvar and the Horde army can only watch in horror as his body falls to the ground. Frostmourne consumes the soul of the slain orc. When Bolvar next speaks, there is no mistaking the seething anger in his voice.

Highlord Fordragon: You will pay for all the lives you've stolen, traitor.
The Lich King: Boldly stated, but there is nothing you can—

An explosion and a green cloud, accompanied by screams of pain behind Bolvar interrupts the confrontation.

The Lich King: What?

Laughter emanates from the heights above both the Wrathgate and the Kor'kron Vanguard as Grand Apothecary Putress approaches the ledge.

Grand Apothecary Putress: Did you think we had forgotten? Did you think we had forgiven?

As he speaks, Forsaken catapults roll into view on both sides of him.

Grand Apothecary Putress: Behold, now, the terrible vengeance of the Forsaken!
The Lich King: Sylvanas...

The catapults fire, unleashing plague bombs onto the battlefield.

Grand Apothecary Putress: Death to the Scourge! And death to the living!

The plague explodes across the field, killing Scourge, Alliance and Horde soldiers alike.

Highlord Fordragon: Fall back!

The forces not killed by the plague flee from the Wrathgate as many more die around Bolvar. Even the Lich King is affected as he falls to his knees, coughing and hacking. With a roar, Arthas comes to his feet and retreats from the field, back into Icecrown Citadel.

The Lich King: This isn't over.

The gate closes. Putress laughs.

Grand Apothecary Putress: Now, all can see this is the hour of the Forsaken.

Putress leaves. On the field below, Bolvar falls to his hands and knees, wretching, then glances up towards Fordragon Hold to where he had left the Alliance adventurer(*) to stand guard.

Highlord Fordragon: (thinking) We're finished. No escape... for any of us.

Bolvar glances towards Wyrmrest Temple and sees dragons approaching. Finally, he rolls to his back as he succumbs to the plague and appears* to die just as the dragons, members of the Red flight, arrive. The reds incinerate the Forsaken catapults and the plague clouds as well as most of the Forsaken before flying back to the temple.

*Not-so-big spoiler alert: He survives.
(*) That's us! :D

I was suprised to see a cutscene in midgame.

Commentaire de 653606

I honestly didn't think Blizz had it in them :O
That cutscene is just so awesome.

Commentaire de 655945

would like to say thanks to ktnb for the great alliance guide.

that was an awesome quest chain, the cinematic was so cool i watched it a second time (got goosebumps both times i watched it).

Commentaire de 630737

I never expected the cut-scene
I thought that the game had crashed (which never happens on this computer), but no, such a powerful cut-scene took place.
I was near tears when I saw Alexstrasza sitting there in the midst of the dead bodies, plants, and fire.
On a side note, I think this is the only time you get to see a dragon sitting, or, we may as well say the second time, too, counting both of them.

Blizzard needs to do more in-game cutscenes like they... I'm really hoping to see some more in Cataclysm. They did a fantastic job with this one, and I made sure to do this on my new character, just to view the cutscene. This entire questline itself though is just as good as the Guru of Drakuru questline. Really strikes you in a new way... like you accomplished something besides "HAY GO COLLECT 15 PLANTS FOR ME KAY?"

Commentaire de VK107

Okay I was looking for this crap for like 3 hours and never got any help. The questline for Alliance starts at Wintergarde Keep. There are a few quests that you have to complete before being able to do this. One of them is The Demo-Gnome and the other is The Lost Corier. You also have to complete The Flight of the Wintergarde Defender before you can do THOSE quests. Hope this helps others.

Commentaire de 525656

I've done this questline on all my toons with the appropriate level. I just love it, but something I hadn't noticed the previous times was a short dialogue between Alexstrasza the Life-Binder and Korialstrasz.

Korialstrasz says: My Queen, do they know?
Alexastrasza the Life-Binder says: No, my beloved.
Alexastrasza the Life-Binder says: Ashj zila gul kirasath lok ante il lok buras danashj Gul gul.
Korialstrasz nods.
Korialstrasz says: They will not.

Then she whispers you to come to her.

I'm wondering what it is that they did not want us to know. Any ideas?

This quest line now ends at Return to Angrathar. Alextrasza no longer gives the quest to return the armor. Battle for the Undercity is no more it seems.

Commentaire de Pulv

Just finished this chain. Thank you Blizz for the great cinematic. Anyone who hasnt finished this one should.

Commentaire de Geekgirl101

As of 4.0.3a the followup after the achievement for the Battle for Undercity no longer exists, the questline ends after the cinematics.

Commentaire de 711764

This was by far the best quest line in the game, with the cinematic at the end. Finally remembered to go back and do it on one of my characters and I was highly disappointed by not having the follow up quests. At the very least, you should have been able to bring the armor to SW. The rest could have been tweaked later to add Garrosh in place of Thrall, but to not bring the armor back to SW and Wrynn, seemed to leave things incomplete.

Commentaire de lightshammer

Yep, just finished this and it ends at the wrathgate. The shield is still in the place it has always been but after Alexstraza whispers to come to her its over.

Commentaire de Ravenrats

Just Finished Veteran of the Wrathgate on my 3rd toon and something is missing. Retaking of Undercity is gone.

Commentaire de Kermet

As of 4.0.3 patch i can't get the followup chain which ends in the the Battle for Undercity.
Wowhead says that's now deprecated and obsolete, so my guess it's that the chain has been removed with Cataclysm.
It's a real shame, that was a fun quest and load of XP...

Commentaire de 766672

Done this with 3 of my horde characters, was alwasy a lot of fun and one of the quest highlights in the game. Now i was looking forward to do this with my first alliance char, always was curios about the other side of this one. Was very dissapointed not beeing able to do it now.

Commentaire de sunman42

Confirmed. Alexstrasza the Life-Binder whispers, "Come to me <insert name here>," but all she does is offer to show the cutscene again. I can see the shield that is the Alliance Mcguffin for moving on to the cleaning of Undercity, but it can't be acted upon. Tried reloading UI, still no dice.

Commentaire de 245604

The last 5 quests of the chain that would normally become available after the Wrathgate-cinematic, including the battle for the Undercity, are no longer in the game. Too bad since it's one of the best quests ever made.

Commentaire de Beiki

Yeah, this is some serious bull!@#$ that we don't get to do the battle for the undercity anymore.

Commentaire de krashingkritter

The rest of this quest chain, following Return to Angrathar, is now marked as "obsolete" by Blizzard.

Commentaire de Hotice2104

Replying up for relevant update:

After you complete the quest for the achievement and cinimatic there will no longer be a follows up given by Alextraza for the battle of undercity. This last part of the quest chain has been noted as obsolete and removed from the game entirely.

Speculation about this is likely due to the fact that at the time of the event Thrall is the War-chief of the Horde and a very key player in these last quests but as of now (post-cataclysm) Garrosh is in charge of things. Given this time differentiation between the then and now along this seems like a good guess but is just that; a guess.

In any case congratulations you are now finished with the quest-line and no you have no way for going any further than this.

Commentaire de Garmheim

I have this achievement because I was playing when WotLK went live in November, 2008 but is there anyone else who feels a tinge of sadness that this among many other interesting quest chains that enrich the lore of the game are no longer available? Things do change. We accept that but this is such a critical turn in the invasion of Northrend and the development of Sylvanus that losing it makes the game a little poorer.

Commentaire de 960338

This quest has NOT been removed from the game. I just did this quest line and viewed the CG cut scene last night. The Battle for Undercity has been removed tho.

Commentaire de Merkilan

So sad. I never did this horde side before and was looking forward to the attack on Undercity from Horde point of view. Now I'll never know.

I wish Blizzard would stop removing the really good parts of questing.

Commentaire de bitemeok

I think this has been my favorite achievement so far! A must for everyone!

Commentaire de Surfersanela

THE best cut scene in wow so far - well worth finishing the quest line to see it !

Commentaire de Aoife86

After the cinematic you can't do the following quests to liberate the Undercity...which is too bad because that was my favorite quest ever.

Commentaire de LoremasterLysan

One of the best cutscenes in this game
Battle of Angrathar the Wrathgate

Commentaire de BregoVelen

Very disappointing that Blizz decided to make the 5 quests following the achievement obsolete. I haven't done this questline for a long while (and never from the Alliance perspective) and decided to do it on a Void Elf monk.
I was hoping that these quests had been "resurrected" as some of the quests had been with the new scaling system for the pre BFA launch, sadly 1. An End and a Beginning 2. To Fordragon Hold 3.Audience with the Dragon Queen 4. Galakrond and the Scourge 5. On Ruby Wings were not.

Commentaire de 164284

As of 7.3.5: I completed this achievement on both my Void Elf and Nightborne, and can confirm you still get the achievement on both factions. You still do not get the Undercity portion, but are able to view the Wrath Gate cut scene.

I followed the quest guides in these comments, and they are still valid.

Commentaire de Gromit87

Very disappointed to not be able to see the Alliance version of the battle for Undercity. Why did blizz feel the need to remove it?

Commentaire de Kaerfemagsh

I REALLY wish bliz would update this cinematic to present day standards, like cinematics in bfa
