TBC Classic Launch Experience

I'm so excited for Shadowlands Classic. Follow me on Twitch! :) : www.twitch.tv/captaingrim_

So what's after Shadowlands? you're all probably Wondering! Well we thought what could possibly be worse then being trapped in the maw by the Jailer? That's right... Warlords of Draenor 2 You get your own Garrison....again Instead of two mission tables We added 6 in one room you'll be spending most of your time in there now.

7 minute escort around Shattrath. And you have to stay with the NPC. I got D/Ced near the end of it and had to start it over

It's a Shattrath tour. You need to tag along with the elemental that will make you see the whole city. Problem is, a snail is faster than the elemental.

It's a quest where you follow a npc that stops and talks then it walks then it stops to talk over and over. It just takes forever

Fun fact: you don't need to follow khadgars servant. Start the quest, and go to the balcony coming from Aldor Rise (overlooking Adal and khadgar) the servant will go through shatt whispering you and ends on that balcony when its done.
