'''Deepholm'''<ref>[[:File:Cataclysmzonelocations.jpg]]</ref> (also called '''Deephome'''<ref name=S%26amp%3BL137>''[[Shadows & Light]]'', p.137</ref> and '''Deepholme'''<ref>{{ref web|url=http://www.wow.com/gallery/cataclysm-zones/2226108/|title=Cataclysm conceptual maps and concept art|accessdate=2009-09-10|date=2009-08-21}}</ref>) is a continent situated far below the [[Skywall]].<ref>[[:File:Deepholm.jpg]] Deepholm panel at [[BlizzCon 2009]]</ref><ref>{{ref web|url=http://www.blizzard.com/blizzcon/recaps/cataclysm-panel.xml|title=BlizzCon 2009 - Cataclysm Panel|accessdate=2009-09-10}}</ref> The surface is rough, covered with fissures and craters, and it regularly quivers with earthquakes. When the realm of fire beneath breaks through, massive volcanoes form, until [[Therazane]]'s [[Elemental#Earth Elemental|earth elementals]] can put a halt to the incursion.
An '''Arcanite Bar''' is a rare metal used in many level 60 recipes. Not only is it a component to making many items, but it is also needed to create [[Elementium]].
 
   
  +
Deepholm is lined with caves, tunnels and endless passageways. Worms, burrowing animals and other subterranean creatures abound. Gems and jewels of all kinds, including those not known to [[Azeroth (world)|Azeroth]], can be found within, though they are considered the property of Therazane herself. No mining efforts are permitted in her realm. Some sages believe that a few of the precious stones possess strong innate magical powers, but the truth of this speculation may never be verified.<ref name=S%26amp%3BL137%2F>
This grayish metal looks dull even when tempered, but it holds a keener edge than any other metal on Azeroth. Arcanite is extremely flexible and can be worked into a springy armor that turns aside the mightiest blows. Only weapons, armor, and shields normally made of metal can be fashioned from arcanite; a warblade can be made of arcanite, but a tauren totem cannot.{{Cite|WoWRPG|193}}
 
   
  +
The surface of this land is not pleasant to live on, but hardy plants and animals do eke out an existence here. Life for them is short and vicious, but [[Therazane|Therazane the Stonemother]] nurtures them when she can. Striking at those she considers her "children" is the quickest way to earn her enmity.<ref name=S%26amp%3BL137%2F>

This item is created by [[Alchemist]]s using the [[Transmute: Arcanite]] ability wich requires a skill level of 275 and a {{item|Philosopher's Stone}}. The recipe can be learned from [[Alchemist Pestlezugg]] in [[Gadgetzan]].
 
   
  +
In a few rare places, the surface of Deepholm resembles a rocky, deserted section of Azeroth. Visitors to the [[Elemental Plane]] can find some measure of rest here, although the ground does shake and tremble with frightening regularity. Underground, travelers face not only quakes, but also cave-ins, rockslides and other dangers.<ref name=S%26amp%3BL137%2F>

'''Deepholm''' (a.k.a. the Elemental Plane of Earth) is where [[Deathwing]] was nursed back to health after the events of [[Day of the Dragon]]. After he regained his health he ruptured out through the middle section of Deepholm above the [[Temple of Earth]], which housed the [[World Pillar]]. For a while the temple was the main base of operations for [[Twilight's Hammer]], but after the rupture [[The Earthen Ring]] took control of the temple in an attempt to stabilize the fractured [[World Pillar]]. Meanwhile [[Deathwing]]'s return to Azeroth caused all four elemental [[planes]] to become unstable, thus allowing [[Elemental Lord]]s to visit the surface.

Deepholm[1] (also called Deephome[2] and Deepholme[3]) is a continent situated far below the Skywall.[4][5] The surface is rough, covered with fissures and craters, and it regularly quivers with earthquakes. When the realm of fire beneath breaks through, massive volcanoes form, until Therazane's earth elementals can put a halt to the incursion.

Deepholm is lined with caves, tunnels and endless passageways. Worms, burrowing animals and other subterranean creatures abound. Gems and jewels of all kinds, including those not known to Azeroth, can be found within, though they are considered the property of Therazane herself. No mining efforts are permitted in her realm. Some sages believe that a few of the precious stones possess strong innate magical powers, but the truth of this speculation may never be verified.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag[6], including familiars such as drakes, spiders and worms composed entirely of stone and minerals!

While it was originally announced that players would be able to find Deathwing's entrance into Azeroth from Deepholm in an area called Deathwing Scar north of Stormwind City, the Maelstrom will now be used for this purpose.[7]

Therazane will be in charge of a daily quest and reputation faction hub – similar to the Sons of Hodir – in Deepholm.[7][6]
