Could this be the place where Arthas fights Illidan in WC III. (Last map in the UD campaign)

Comentado por 172778

Arthas and Illidan fight outside of Icecrown Glacier. However, another monumental battle took place here. The fight between Aegwynn and the Dark Titan, Sargeras occurred here

The most notable locations of Storm Peaks are Ulduar and Temple of Storms.

Temple of Storms.
A mysterious temple located in The Storm Peaks of Northrend. It was Titan-made. It’s similar to the Wyrmrest Temple down in the Dragonblight. This temple sits on one of the tallest peaks, right along the western border, so just beyond it the cliffs drop to Icecrown Glacier. A wide path, one of the only straight channels in this region, leads to massive stone steps that stop at the temple’s front door. Crystal golems stand guard at the perimeter, barring access. Shapes can be seen moving around within: massive shapes, too big to be anything but storm giants. The Titans must have built this, but its unknown if it was for themselves or for the giants.

Ulduar
With Uldum and Uldaman, there is a third base of the Titans named Ulduar. Ulduar is a mysterious subterranean realm of ice and stone. This is the storm giants’ stronghold, but they didn’t build it. It is a Titan city — it matches the design of the two temples in Northrend, and other ruins dwarves have found elsewhere (And like Uldum and Uldaman, its name starts with “Uld”). It’s an amazing place. Massive buildings protrude from the tops and sides of mountains, many hundreds of times taller than a human. Previously, the city was believed to be nearly entirely concealed within the mountainscape, but this has now been proven untrue. Large sections of the city are visible aboveground.

Inside, Ulduar is a profusion of tunnels and stairs and balconies. The entire place appears to be carved out of a massive cave, and many of the levels are natural ledges. It has the feeling, as if nature were improved upon rather than replaced or recreated. The surfaces are a strange mix of smooth and unaltered stone and ice, as when a master sculptor works in stone and lets the material’s natural texture add depth and beauty. It shows where the dwarves got their skill in stonework, but judging by Ulduar they're still a long way from matching their creators.

seems like this area isn's available on the beta, seeing like the map we have is the sattelite pictures (that or the minimap version, whatever seems more feasible).

Anyone knows for sure?

When you die in the Storm Peaks you will now be mounted on a spectral gryphon as of build 8820.
The reasoning behind this is that there are lots of mountains in this zone, so it will make it easier to get to your corpse.
A welcomed change, in my opinion.

So, this was open 2 builds ago? Because every time I try to enter, I'm still booted out through that Blizzard debuff/mark.

If it's up and explorable... how are people getting in?

Can u access the zone without a flying mount?

Comentado por zexro

Does anyone know of a way to explore Storm Peaks on foot? (without a lock of course) This is the last zone I need for the Exploration Achievement (at level 70!), and I can't even get past the part where K3 is (the very bottom).

I'm all for dying and rezzing at a new graveyard, I just don't know where! Please help!

Comentado por crazyo1977

The only way I was able to find a way into The Storm Peaks on foot is through the very Northeast corner of Zul'Drak. You will have to climb over the mountains. Unfortunately, there are areas there that so far I cannot get to on foot. One is Frosthold and the other is the Storm Temple.

Comentado por Woetoo

There is a path into Storm Peaks, at the north east of Crystalsong Forest (71,30).

You can get into Crystalsong forest from Dragonblight using the northern path located in The Crystal Vice (59,13).

Both paths are clearly visible on the map when you get close enough.

I just gotta say that the music in open areas of this zone is really majestic and beautiful. I loved this zone for the mountains, which remind me of where I live (Rocky Mountains in the US), but the music really put the icing on the cake. Thanks Blizz.

I highly recommend epic flying in this zone, I did it with a normal 60% flightspeed, and it took years. I wonder if its possible to quest here without the flying mount.

Comentado por typ0

Welcome to Storm Peaks. If you don't have epic flying skill, prepare for a long stay.

Comentado por 256592

There is a goblin next to the flight master at K3 which will give you a 60% speed flight mount if you don't have one. Dunno if there are any reqs for it, i was still short 700g of the mount and cold weather flying so I didn't have mine :/

Comentado por 257371

The entrance to Storm Peaks from ZD is NE of the Altar of Rhunok. The path goes west as it goes up the hills.

I have proved that the entire Storm Peaks maps can be revealed without a flying mount, so those of you who are 68-76 and want the Explorer title, keep trying. It can be done. I got my title at lvl 73.

This zone in my opinion features the best quests in the game. Lot of quests that require you to ride on a mount or some other thing and do stuff with it.

My favorite quest of all time is also featured in this zone:

This > Icecrown.
I honestly got bored of Icecrown after 10-15 quests.
Storm Peaks is imo a great place to level (if you got flying / epic flying that is lol).

Comentado por Psipherious

For anyone who likes to follow storylines and lore of the game - often there is a quest from elsewhere which tells you to go speak to a npc in a new zone once you hit a particular level. So far I've had quests introduce me to Sholazzar Basin, Dragonblight, Grizzly Hills, Zul'Drak and Icecrown.

In the Sewers of Dalaran there is a goblin which gives the following quest to go to K3 (Storm Peaks): Luxurious Getaway!

This area also holds the faction The Sons of Hodir who hold this expansions raiding shoulder enchants. The quest to befriend them begins in k3 when you have to save the men of k3 from vrykul.

The strange static light you see in the sky at Storm Peaks is not some Blizzard magic, it is actually an attempt to draw northern light, a phenomena often seen in the northern latitudes. Here's a video of how it looks like in the real world. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJBrMXSn-hU

I have done 95 quests here and i cant find any more. i have been flying around to every quests giver that wowhead shows. and looked EVERYWHERE. anyone know why i cant find the last 5 quests? is there some "this item begins a quest" item anywhere?

Comentado por Skulduggery

Do you think it is reasonable to go here at 77? Or should I keep questing at other zones untill 78...

Comentado por 258282

there is a ....very strange mix of Norse and Greek mythology going on around here...almost like its blurred. Originally the final boss was "Kronus" (greek titan of time) or some deviation of that, but it was changed to "Loken" (nordic god of mischief)...at first i thought it was because some manager noticed an idiot put a guy out of his mythological place, but then i realized that this whole instance and Ualdar itself is already a mis-mash of the two lore histories.

My speculation is that Kronus will be a boss in the 25 man version of Ualdar, along with Jormungrand (the world worm), some high-tech *!@# (wouldnt be suprised to find Zerg here), and of course some incarnation of Yogg-Saron, an old god (probably similar to C'thun)

Further speculation may suggest that some of these titans are working with the Faceless Ones, so there may be some high-end Faceless interaction as well, whereas Zul'Drak's potential 25 man instance will feature more troll-to-god interaction with possible demonic or Lich-King influence, Ualdar will most likely deal with Old God / Titan stuff.

i am lvl 76, death knight, i am wondering if i should start questing in The Storm Peaks or gain a level in Scholazar and than finally move onto Storm Peaks...pllease help me people

Comentado por TheBaldGuy

I see the same thing. Happens on normal and epic fliers, happens w/Crusader Aura on or off. The moment I cross into storm peaks from anywhere, my speed drops by 60% on epic. Don't recall the drop on normal.

Comentado por Teshiruu

I think it's worth noting that the temples you are sent to investigate in the allaince quest "Fate of the Titans" correspond with the pillars found in Sholazar Basin, both in shape and the nature of their positioning to each other. Furthermore, when you come to the Temple of Life, you'll find it in the same condition as the Lifeblood Pillar in the Basin.

The last noteworthy item connecting the two is the fact that the guardian of the Temple of Life was "Watcher Freya", and near the Avalanche in Sholazar you will find a quest npc named Avatar of Freya warding Scourge away from the ruins of the Lifeblood Pillar.

I don't know if there are any quests in Sholazar where they actually explain the connection between the two landmarks, but it deffinately caught my attention.

"A welcomed change."
Absolutely!
One of the most annoying things in WoW universe, is when you "die", your Ghost can't walk through walls or even wooden doors. :-D And how heavy must be a Ghost, so he can't climb even a small mountain?
Ghosts must be flying! Or at least be able to climb mountains, without any trouble.

When you first arrive in Storm Peaks, the first quest hub is K3, at 40,86.

Comentado por 333733

if you're having trouble finding quests i suggest hitting up gromarsh crashsite and camp tunkalo they got some good long chain quests that will also lead to items that start quests. and if you don't know about it yet on the back side of the mountains NW of the snowdrift plains there is a small stone dwarf camp with a couple quests in it. yes there is an fp there so if you got the slow mount then you won't have to worry about the massively long trip back there.

Also if you have just arrived then talk to the guy right next to the fp in k3. He will give you a free flying mount, it's slow but gets the job done, there are no restrictions to fly on this mount however it can only be used in certain ares (sholozar, storm peaks, and if i remember right in crystal song) if you attempt to fly anywhere else you will be warned to turn back and then dropped off into ground where you will most likely die.

one more thing about this zone... when you enter stay on the path... you probly won't notice them right away but there are land mines around and they hurt. and to prove that blizz can be warped even in this pristine land there is an achievement involving these mines have fun and watch your health while trying to complete it.

Regarding Thunderfall: The fact that there are frozen spears, Giant-clubs and even dwarves hovering in the air whilst frozen makes no sense. Just because they're frozen doesn't mean they are in fact frozen in the air as well.

There's something very weird with the K3 Inn I think. Might just be me, but it looks like there is a hammer popping out of the wall every now and then, slamming down a bit, then retreating into the wall again.

To Secola:

The Frost Iron and all of them are the creations of the titans who haven't suffered the "Curse of Flesh". And Ulduar isn't a city, it's a prison designed to keep Yogg-Saron inside so he can't do any damage.

1. K3 may be inspired by the mountains in Karakoram mountain which includes mountains originally named K1 to K5. K2 is the second-highest mountain on Earth after Mount Everest.

2. Also a possible reference to "K-3" a mining planet in the movie "Serenity" created by Joss Whedon.

Many of the goblin defenses are reminiscent of the game Team Fortress 2 by Valve. These include sentry guns, demolition bombs, sappers (although in this case they are people and not devices), and teleporters.

From wowwiki storm peaks page.

1. Very likely to be reference due k2 is one of the most famous peak in the world and it lies in a mountain area. Ironically k2 is the lying at one of the lowest points in storm peaks.

2. This is also likely if you think some. Serenity was a big hit and gathered many fans(nerds cough) and we all know many computer people like watching Sci-Fi(i know i may be a bit sterotypical here, not saying all but many). So it could very well also be a tribute to the movie, the town does resemble that place they rob some.

Storm peaks is over all a good zone to be in.

What is that 'Engine of the Makers' hole thing? What do you do with it or is there a quest in there at some point?
