wow Tomb of Sargeras - Wailing Halls

[Stan 5,240]

We've tested the Wailing Halls, the second LFR wing of the Tomb, with Sisters of the Moon and the Desolate Host. Sisters were definitely overtuned and it took a lot of Determination to get things done only to find out that Demonic Inquisition would not spawn!

We'll be covering Demonic Inquisition later as a separate boss preview (similar to our Goroth or Harjatan previews). We've uploaded videos of the two bosses that were available for testing.

Wailing Halls

• The lower reaches of the one-time Temple of Elune have been sealed away for generations, spawning unthinkable horrors.

Encounters

Sisters of the Moon

• The Sisters of the Moon served as wardens for the temple long before the avatar of Sargeras was buried beneath it. Even in death, the sisters maintained their vigil, but over the millennia something twisted their ability to distinguish friend from foe. Their madness slowly consumed them, and now any who enter their sacred chambers are put to death.

The Desolate Host

• Once, this was a sacred burial site for the Night Elves, but the Legion has twisted these grounds with the Engine of Souls. This foul machine draws upon the energy of the dead, twisting them into abominations. Due to this corruption, these tormented spirits have become monstrosities, looking to feed on any who descend into the tomb's depths.

Demonic Inquisition

• Anticipating the arrival of mortal forces invading the Tomb of Sargeras, Kil'jaeden has called on his best captors, Atrigan and Belac, to lock down the interlopers and prevent them from using the Pillars to advance deeper into the dungeon.

Loot Information

• Raid Finder gear ranges from item level 870+ to 880+

Everbody expected the Demonic Inquisition, but it didn't show up.

;p

 

Thumbnail for Sisters of the Moon really reminds me of the room for Alythess & Sacrolash in Sunwell Plateau.

That Engine of Souls room really reminds me of Reliquary of the Lost too. Actually, the more I look at it, the more I notice it's the exact same. I appreciate how Blizzard is borrowing a lot from BC in Legion.

I noticed the same. Blizzard's trying to put so much direct and subliminal TBC nostalgia into the game this expansion.

This was the exact first thing I thought when I saw it too :)

Seem appropriate to do as this is the expansion that will (likely) end all the legion flibberty jibber, nice to see some of the more subtle throwbacks *cough tier 20 gear repeat design is lazy cough*

I'm okay with this... tier 6 was BEAUTIFUL for almost every class. Satisfied with what amounts to an HD remaster of that set.
