Nachdem die Entwickler von Blizzard die vergangenen Wochen über bereits die fünf für das Timewalking vorhandenen Dungeons aus TBC durch spezielle Blogeinträge vorstellten, sind sie nun dazu übergegangen, diese Reihe von Artikeln auch für die Instanzen aus Wrath of the Lich King fortzusetzen. Den Anfang hat dabei der Dungeon „Ahn’kahet“ gemacht, der nun im Verlauf des heutigen Tages durch einen kurzen Blogeintrag allen neueren Spielern erklärt wurde.

 

 

Timewalking Highlight: Ahn’kahet

Timewalking

In World of Warcraft Patch 6.2, we introduced a new series of seven different weekend Bonus Events, two of which feature Timewalking Dungeons—one in Outland dungeons for characters level 71 and higher, and another in Northrend dungeons for level 81 and higher. When you Timewalk these dungeons, your character’s power and gear will be scaled down to a fraction of what they normally are, and as you may have never ventured into some (or any) of these dangerous places, it might be a good idea to prepare yourself now.

Ahn’kahet: The Old Kingdom

Azjol-Nerub was an empire of great strength when the Lich King arrived in Northrend. Despite ferocious resistance, however, Scourge forces managed to overtake the subterranean kingdom and slaughter its inhabitants, the nerubians. Scarred by years of war and abandonment, this vast domain is now occupied on two fronts.

In the Upper Kingdom, undead nerubians patrol the ruins of their homeland, guarding clutches of eggs that will one day bring forth a new generation of Scourge warriors. Meanwhile, in the depths of the Old Kingdom, Ahn’kahet, another enemy stirs: the faceless ones. Little is known of these horrifying creatures, but rumor has it that they answer to an evil power lurking beneath Northrend. Destroying the undead nerubians and their tainted eggs will deal a great blow to the Lich King, but eliminating the mysterious faceless ones is also crucial to reclaiming the fallen empire.

Bosses

Elder Nadox

Nadox was once a venerated nerubian leader who taught the ancient ways of his race to generations of broods. When the War of the Spider ravaged Azjol-Nerub, he was overcome by legions of undead. The Lich King reanimated his corpse and bled everything wise and noble from Nadox, forcing him to slaughter his students, friends, and all other nerubians who opposed the might of the Scourge.

 

Prince Taldaram

After Kael’thas’s failed assault against the Lich King, some of his greatest blood elf followers were slaughtered and raised into undeath as darkfallen. Prince Taldaram is one of these cunning and bloodthirsty vampiric beings. Always seeking to please the Lich King, he has entered the war-torn depths of Ahn’kahet in search of lost nerubian relics that can empower the Scourge’s murderous ranks.

 

Jedoga Shadowseeker

Jedoga dreams of apocalypse. She is rumored to be one of the most fanatical adherents of the Twilight’s Hammer. Under the guidance of the ruthless ogre mage Cho’gall, she learned to twist her shamanic powers to serve the Old Gods. Not long ago, Jedoga journeyed into the bowels of Ahn’kahet to prepare for the glorious day when Yogg-Saron will arise and envelop the lands of Azeroth in shadow.

 

Amanitar

For ages, fungi and other benign forms of life have thrived in Ahn’kahet’s damp sun-starved caverns. Only recently has Yogg-Saron spread its oppressive will into this isolated ecosystem. The Old God used its immense corruptive powers to warp one of Ahn’kahet’s native beasts into a monstrous creature known as Amanitar, an unthinking terror bristling with the destructive energies of its master.

 

Herald Volazj

Amid the Scourge’s invasion of Azjol-Nerub, many of the kingdom’s denizens tunneled underground to escape the Lich King’s minions. Yet some of them dug too deep, exposing the tendrils of Yogg-Saron. Roused by this disturbance, the entity has sent one of its most ancient warriors – Herald Volazj – to cull the beleaguered nerubians and annihilate anyone foolish enough to threaten the Old God.

 

Tips

  • Elder Nadox summons adds that should be taken down quickly.
  • Run away from Prince Taldaram’s Flame Spheres.
  • Don’t not run away from Prince Taldaram’s Flame Spheres.
  • Kill Jedoga’s Twilight Volunteers immediately.
  • Mushrooms appear all around Amanitar. Get away from the poisinous mushrooms and don’t kill them.
  • Volazj separates everyone. This is hardest on the healer, so prepare to pop your cooldowns to stay alive!

 

 

Achievements and Reputation

If you haven’t earned these achievements already, completing this dungeon will award „Ahn’kahet: The Old Kingdom“ and „Heroic: Ahn’kahet: The Old Kingdom“.
