The new starting area for Worgens. I haven't seen it yet (I'm not in the alpha =/) but judging from the map it looks amazing.

Commento di Katch

Um why does it says "contested" if its the worgen's starting area?
Lost Isle says "Horde"

Commento di Saltytoes

Currently, Gilneas is the only Starting zone to be contested...

Commento di 625497

From this: You'r probably going to be fighting off the Horde, later on well trying to anyway, while the Night elves help you, from what it says the Worgen are losing but then the Alliance comes to the aid.

Commento di 613123

uhh...is it just me or wasnt there a whole other sector to the zone in the bottom left corner?

maybe phasing of the forsaken destroying that part?

Commento di 625669

Its cool that the Capital City on the middle of the map is. any other city it isn't. Cheers to Blizz

Commento di Saltytoes

I still don't understand why the King wants to live outside the city? If he is living in the middle of nowhere (it isn't nowhere anymore, the King lives there!) then he will be much more defenseless than if he lived in Gilneas City.

Looks very similar to Howling Fjord to me.

Commento di rob1n3tt

Heeeey! There's already a place called The Headlands! (the first thing i noticed :p) So now you better come up with a new name! :3

From how it's all playing out, you lose.
Worgen flee with the Night Elves to darnassus
Forsaken move in and use the zone for some questing.
Gilneas Liberation Front tries taking back the region.

Commento di 1556

hm, that map reminds me a little of Outland..
Or, maybe not.. :(

Commento di 671059

Naw i think that it reminds me of Howling Fjord!
the phasing thing is gunna be more difficult to hook up with ur friends. u can be in the same place at the same tim and still not be able to hook up. it does make it so that u have to lvl with friends and do the exact same stuff, but its definitly gunna be weird. not used to so MUCH phasing.
it also makes me wonder why they didnt give a capital to either of the new races. isuppose it makes sense though because when BC came out.....after a while Silvermoon and the Exodar stood still and lifeless. i think its kinda dumb that the only way to get back in is to go in the BG Battle for Gilneas City. this expansion is gunna make the game different. im not sure if its in a good, or a bad way. but i cant wait to find out! i wish it was 12/7/10!

I went here yesterday and found out that the area was in phase 3. I can then assume that the first 2 phases are for the worgen questline only. Also, it was very devoid of life, I found 1 fox and 4 flocks of sheep on the whole map.

Commento di 111622

Gilneas is a very fascinating place... all the way from the Greymane Wall to the City itself, it's very large in size and unique houses with nice music. Even right now while there's no NPC's around, it's still a spacious sight and very fun to explore around as it's one of the few Pre-Cataclysm zones released in The Shattering that we're able to adventure through.

Such a shame that it's gonna be wasted on a starting zone... I'll probably spend no more than an hour here and never come back :(

Commento di 174223

i just got a quest from silverpine that landed me in gilneas, are we meant to be in here yet? :S

Commento di 323514

So once the boat from Gilnaes brings u too Darn , how , and can u get back?

Commento di Ephemeriis

Was very disappointed to find out this zone was only for the low-level stuff...

Really wanted to see more of Gilneas. Was hoping it would become a major city. Wanted to see more quests out there.

Instead, I did about 12 levels around Gilneas as a new worgen, and then I was shipped off to Teldrassil.

Commento di 132595

I was trying to explore entire zone but for some reason could not get northgate woods? I wandered around sub zone fro a while, any ideas where exactly I should have been standing?

Commento di sonicknight

Annoyingly there are no mailbox's in stormglen.

Commento di 751347

So I found the subzones The Bite and Galewatch Lighthouse. Anything happen here? Or just for world scenery/absorption.

Commento di 748556

I really hate the fact that Horde players get to quest here and that if an Alliance player goes to Gilneas there are no NPCs there. Honestly, Blizzard should add some NPCs and quests in Gilneas for Alliance players that deal with the Horde invaders.

When Cata came out my husband and I did race changes on both of our mains to Worgens which meant that we didn't get to do the new Worgen starter quests in Gilneas. So we decided to start brand new Worgen toons so we could experience the new content and we had an absolute blast doing the new quests.

There were alot of quests where you got to ride some alternate mode of transport which cut down on running around. My favorite quest though was the one where you got to shoot yourself out of a catapult onto an enemy ship. Oh and lets not forget waking up in the stockade after changing into a werewolf! I took some great screenshots and wrote a fun blog post detailing these and other favorite Gilneas quest.

I highly recommend creating a new Worgen and doing the entire series!

I felt gilneas was sadly under developed. no mailboxes after duskhaven was just unfortunate. and for any type of profession training all you can manage was going to the"jack" of all trades and only to 75 skill. I tried running a worgen warrior with blacksmithing and mining and this got very unfortunate as after duskhaven, there is no place for those profs to level thier skill. I just got the feel this zone was just a rush rush rush...push you off to elf land zone. I havent tried a goblin yet but so far this area seems to be sad for any type of progression aside from finish the quests and get the heck out of here zone

Commento di Derren

Is there a way to exit gilneas (with racials) at like level1? Npc or something...?

Kinda annoying if you want to start a new character but both players are not worgens...

Commento di Sylvandas

So I was flying around this place today on my hunter, and found a submarine that had its own special sub-zone called "X-2 Pincer".

There are a few things that confuses me about this: Why is it here? If it's supposed the same as the Vashj'ir submarine, shouldn't it be "Pincer X2"? Why would Blizzard create this if it has nothing to do with the Worgen questline?

It can be found just north of Keel Harbor, close to where the boat to Rut'theran was.

Commento di Tahvo

Fun Fact: If you go to the mountain area where the ettin whose banner you had to steal was, there are 2 piles of (presumed) ettin crap, and one of them has a gnome skeleton.

I think people need to be more patient. Blizz always releases new stuff with patches... I mean look at the upcoming troll patch... and dont forget all high level instances that they hold off releasing. They will most likely add later a quest to retake the zone for the alliance, or maybe fully take over the zone for the horde? I think a phased major city carrying both Horde and Alliance would be brilliant. I highly doubt that Blizz would build up so much just to leave it undecided... I'm sure it'll be a high level quest, BG, or even raid instance.

It would totally serve their purpose also to have it different for both Horde and Alliance. Horde fights a bunch of Worgen to claim the city once and for all, and Alliance fights a bunch of Forsaken to take back what was once theres.

All I'm saying is give Blizz some slack, and wait a little while. I'm sure it'll be awesome.

Commento di 452504

Interesting.

Me and a friend tried to fly from Gilneas to Tol Barad - yknow, just to see what happened.

There was a boundary near TB, and we didn't have the fatigue to make it back. So, we died.

To our suprise, we appeared at the Spirit Healer... in Sentinel Hill.

Adding (hopefully) a screenshot of the second mailbox in Gilneas zone. Located in Dusk-haven! This is the only mailbox you can get to outside Gilnaes city (which phases out after you are turned to a worgen. I am adding this post because I was unable to find anything showing the exact location when I made my previous worgen.

In case the screenshot is not included, the mailbox is in front of the inn, at the farthest exit from the city from the point where you spawned there after being turned. Across the road from the banker, it is the last building on the left side (with your back to the building the banker is in)

*waiting on approval - I'll edit and try to add a link later, if possible*

At 82,57, you can find nice place for "wedding"...which looks like there was one before worgen curse and forsaken war, I guess

Commento di Jahrok

What I found annoying was it is very easy to miss the cooking, first aid and fishing trainer. And if you miss the cooking and first aid int he beginning, you seem to be totally out of luck.

I decided since I was a caged animal in this new area that I would take up black smithing and mining. The problem is there are also no trade goods vendors for stuff like fine thread (for amazing pants). While there is a banker which is cool I also do not think there are working mailboxes.?

I might add that Blizzard now does not have anyone under 10 repair gear but you may well go 4 (give or take) levels with NO WAY to repair. I goofed around, I am over staying my welcome but my gear now damaged can not be repaired as there are no weapon or armor vendors.

The same thing that makes such an amazing amount of use of a small area, and makes this area so visually stunning is also its Achilles heel. that and is phasing. One part of the story a forge or anvil may work, if you return it does not. One are that was bussling with people now is not. But it also ads to the feeling you are losing the fight and the city is being left and abandoned. It makes great use of the phasing technology and the area looks great.... but for veteran players it really hurts the character experience.

Commento di McSpike

Here's hoping we retake Gilneas in a future patch a la Gnomeregan/Tinkertown.

The MapID of Gilneas is 545. This is used for any WoW API function that requires a MapID.

For example, to set your current map to Gilneas you can type:

/run SetMapByID(545)

MapID's 539, 678 and 679 also have the name Gilneas, so if one doesn't work try the other.

Why aren't there any battle pets? :(

TO EXPLORE NORTHGATE WOODS:

Go to coordinates /way 64.6 25.7, or simply stand on top of the visible letters that you can see, with the unexplored, greyed area around. At this point nothing will happen. Simply relogging /reload or logging off manually will make the area be visible and explored when you log back in.

No achievements or experience for this one though. Don't forget to explore it before heading of to Rut'theran Village.
