Forum:Purgation Isle

Forums: Village pump → Warcraft lore → Purgation Isle

I was doing some exploration in Hillsbrad Foothills today and i swam out to Purgation Isle (that little island off the southern coast), a place i had long forgotten about. But i really wanted to know if anyone had any idea of the lore behind it, maybe knows anything about the quest line involving the now removed mob at the place or just general speculation, do you think we will see it in Cataclysm?--Picaroe (talk) 00:13, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

I don't know much about that island, but I doubt it will be removed in Cataclysm. There would be no reason to.

Is there any reason to keep it? It has one minor gathering quest, and it is on a coastline. I say it will die, but we have no way to know.--SWM24 48 03:01, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

Don't tell anyone, but thats where the new alliance outpost will be. The Worgen take it over, and allow the survivors from Southshore to stay there.

Interesting! where do you know that from?Picaroe (talk) 11:45, December 6, 2009 (UTC)

I don't know if Coobra has in fact some reliable source, but I think one of the points in re-doing the old continents to an extent is trying to balance the discrepancies in flight paths and traveling duration amongst both factions, so it doesn't seem crazy to have some old flight points destroyed just to be moved to a geographically better point. We know for sure they're doing something like that by putting an Alliance base in Southern Barrens, so it could be.--Morgaur (talk) 22:20, December 10, 2009 (UTC)

LOL funny, I thought Coobra was just being sarcastic... ^_^

And they plan to have a ferry go between the Isle and the nearby shore (which will have a dock added)... nothing worse than the smell of a wet worgen.
