WoW Zones As Emojis + Guess Which Is Which

Recommended Posts

SJxRtV6.jpg
 

Ogrimmmar has tried to express various WoW zones via emojis, and there's a pretty fun guessing game in there as well!

It's pretty fun trying to decipher the pictograms and where they belong exactly, with some being pretty obvious, and one even being a bit misleading/confusing (see if you can spot that one). You can check out the solutions below the image, and see how well you did (the last one is especially solid)!

And here are the answers:

Spoiler

1. Revendreth

2. Grizzly Hils

3. Icecrown

5. Ardenweald

5. Nazjatar

6. Thousand needles

7. Jade forest

8. Silithus

9. Silverpine Forest

10. Zuldazar

11. Thunder Totem

12. Ironforge

13. Booty Bay

14. Suramar

15. Teldrassil

Number 8 was the problematic one, as the author combined Silithus and Uldum, but the rest are pretty much on point. Also, this obviously needs to be a thing for WoW terms in general, as it's pretty fun spotting the intended meaning, and we could use some tougher ones!

I guess somehow this could be either Frostfire Ridge from Draenor - ooooor the Kunlai Summit from Pandaria (fire could stand there for the Yaungol Invasion and the burned Town)

I gonna make a list of what I think it is (some we all know surely)

1: Revendreth (Wine without Cheese = 1Million Gaming Sins!)

2: Grizzly Hills (Winny the Pooh wants his honey...)

3: Icecrown (well who gonna not guess that must look for the Icecube beneath the glacier ^^)

4: Ardenweald (I missed the dozens of glitter and some bugs)

5: Vash'jir (according to the squid I also would rather say that than Nazjatar - else It could be N'zoth reffered to the squid)

6: Mulgore (or Thunderbluff what ever milks your cow)

7: The Jade Forest (maybe you think of Vale of Eternal Putriesence thanks to Garrosh AAAND N'zoth BUT > CherryBL + Cloudserps)

8: Uldum (did someone called for more BUGS?!)

9: Duskwood (well well .... Smitty Werben Jaggerman Jensen got Burried somewhere else so they lost their #1)

10: Zuldazar (look and lorewise = NICE ...logistically... well... DO YOU NEED MORE STAIRS IN DAZAR FRIGGIN ALL NIGHT LOOONG LOR?)

11: Westfall (They'd better call it Azeroths Kansas but sadly their is no way to Oz ._.)

12: Kulai Summit (see above - actually the Takeshis Castle made my guess ^^)

13: Tanaris (Whos needs Time when you can have Money? "Jestor Gallywix III" But wait Infinite Time means Infinite Money "ME" )

14: Suramar (WHERE IS MY CHEESE?! -> GAMING SINS ON YOU DAMM ELVES!)

15: Azshara (here you need big brain cause the Well refers to the Well of Eternity Instance where her Kingdom wasn't torn apart - maybe she should have tried Patafix for once but who am I ^^)

Uncommon Patron

15 has a few possibilities:

- If you put emphasis on the female elf, it would suggest Azshara... but then any true depiction of Queen Azshara would put her first or even only so I don't think this was intended.

- Teldrassil obviously fits the passage of time and being burnt to a crisp

- Mount Hyjal also fits if you view the final icon as a sign of 'regrowth' but there is nothing to suggest a 'mountain'.

 

I think this goes to show that these exercises are actually hard to design: a lot of WoW's zones have duplicated themes so you could reasonably confuse a few of them.  Point in case: uldum vs silithus, or najzatar vs vashjir.

      We have another triple entry in the hotfix ledger, as Radiant Echoes gets more improvements in retail, while Season of Discovery and Cata Classic get additional class changes.
       August 7  (Source)
      Player-characters
      Steady Flight should no longer be removed after entering an Arena. Quests
      We tuned up the Prototype Shredder MK-03 so that “Eye for an Eye” can be completed. Radiant Echoes Event
      Increased Flightstone and upgrade Crest drop rates in the event. Reduced the HP scaling on all event bosses so that they should be killable in a more-reasonable timeframe. Developers’ notes: This includes both ‘minibosses’ (e.g. Hogger, Thorim) and final bosses (e.g. Remembered Onyxia, Ragnaros). Season of Discovery
      Hunter Heart of the Lion once again has a 100 yard range. Warrior The Focused Rage rune will now correctly reduce the cost of Meathook by 3. Cataclysm Classic
      Fixed an issue where Faerie Fire did not deal intended amounts of threat when used on NPCs targeting another unit.

      Due to a bug introduced with the War Within pre-patch, some players are receiving item level 250 gear from the weekly cache.
      We've seen numerous reports on Reddit and the official forums that the Last Hurrah weekly quest on live servers drop low-level gear for some players. Apparently, the bug was first introduced with the War Within pre-patch two weeks ago and still hasn't been fixed.
      Here's an example of a low item level drop from the Cache of Awakened Treasures by Omnifox.

      Week 2 brings quite a few changes, as Hunters in particular rise up, while Shadow has a really bad time. The top 3 remains the same and very consistent, so let's jump in and see what's going on.
      Warcraft Logs Points
      The below logs are based on POINTS, and not actual damage or healing, meaning they log the timed completion for the specs, with higher keys getting more points, obviously. The time in which the dungeon is completed is also a factor, but a much, much smaller one, as it grants very few points if you do it significantly faster than just any in-time completion. We're also using the Normalized Aggregate Scores numbers, for clarity, meaning the top spec is marked as 100 and then the rest are ranked in relation to that peak point.
      All Keys
      95th percentile DPS
      The top 3 remains quite stable with the Evoker-Paladin-Warrior trio reigning supreme. We see the first change of the week right after that though, as Frost DK continues its upward march in dungeons as well as in raids, taking 4th from Elemental. Both DKs are on the rise, as Unholy also moves a spot up, taking advantage of Shadow's precipitous 5-spot fall to the bottom of the top 10. Arms remains stable as two Hunters burst in, Beast Mastery taking 8th and Marksmanship 9th, as Frost Mage disappears down towards the bottom. Speaking of the bottom, Devastation gets some new roommates there, as Outlaw and Destruction fall and give Enhancement and Feral a break.

      Mythic+ All Keys 95th Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      All Percentiles
      As with the top percentiles, the top 3 remains solid, but 4th is immediately changed, thanks to Shadow's massive drop in performance this week. The Priest loses even more ground here, falling 9 spots into 13th, opening 4th up for Arms. Beast Mastery moves even higher here, grabbing 5th and moving in front of Elemental and Frost DK, as Marksmanship brings up the rear and completes the Hunter sandwich in 8th. Affliction breaks into the top 10, just ahead of Unholy which dropped to the final spot.

      Mythic+ All Keys All Percentile Data by Warcraft Logs.
      Raw DPS U.GG DPS Rankings
      U.gg's rankings are based on actual DPS taken from Warcraft Logs data, focusing on the top players and span the past two weeks.
      Frost DK finds itself on top in the raw DPS rankings, as Augmentation isn't calculated properly here. Fury and Arms grab the next two spots, moving ahead of Ret, and the Fyr'alath wins continue in 5th, where Unholy finished the legendary axe streak. Even Survival joins the Hunter good times in 8th, where all three specs gather, just ahead of Balance who closes out the top 10.
      Mythic+ All Keystone DPS rankings by u.gg.
       
       
      For even more in-depth data for each individual key head on over to Warcraft Logs. And if you're interested in more info on the specs themselves you can always check out our class guides (updated for the pre-patch), as well as our Mythic+ guides and Mythic+ tier list.

      MoP Remix characters that will transfer over to retail will receive a gear boost!
      With Patch 11.0.2 now live on Public Test Realms, you can copy over MoP Remix characters from retail! It appears all MoP Remix characters will receive a character boost so you can dive straight into action when the War Within expansion launches.

      We can't unfortunately log in to the game with the MoP Remix char on the PTR so we can't confirm the Item Level of gear for max level characters. However, keep in mind that the gear boost will scale with your level, so if you're below max cap, you will receive gear appropriate to your current level.
      When Can We Expect MoP Remix Characters to Transfer to Retail?
      MoP Remix ends on August 19, so we assume the characters will need to be transferred to retail by August 22 when Early Access begins.
