They have been replaced by Troll and Tauren guards.

The troll area in Orgrimmar is now fully functional again, without any Kor'kron guards in sight.

The Valley of Wisdom once again has Оргриммарский храбрецs instead of Kor'kron guards.

We've also got videos of Frostfire Ridge, Garrisons and new UI elements, information about Garrisons, NPCs and Quests, Rare Spawns, Exclusive Glyphs, New Spell Effects, Quest Rewards, Darkmoon Faire Race, Additional Storage, 3D Weapon Models and more!Непроглядная Пучина

Гхаму-ра is seen being tortured by the Twilight Cultists--in a burst of energy, he kills them all. Also seen behind him is Пабу-ра, his son. Perhaps this is a way for hunters to still be able to access Гхаму-ра's old unique model, as Гхаму-ра looks different in WoD.

After completing the initial jumping game, players can set up a rope bridge to avoid jumping across the ruins in the future.

The instance keeps its feel as an abandoned ancient temple while emphasizing the corrupted presence of the Twilight Hammer more. There are more cultists as trash, brainwashed prisoners, and neon tentacles springing from the wall.

Lady Sarevess is gone - she was sacrificed by Домина to assist with her ritual. When Домина is killed, players can click a shrine behind her with Sarevess' body on it for Благословение Непроглядной Пучины.

The old underwater boss, Old Serra'Kis, was replaced by the stronger sea creature Страж пучины who watches over thousands of eggs.

The old murloc Gelihast was killed by Поработитель Кор'ул who didn't enjoy how Gelihast had earned his place in the temple by slaughtering Twilight Hammer cultists. His body remains on display to serve as a warning to the other murlocs. The remaining murlocs are now trained to hold onto the possessions of those who die in the dungeon. To me, they kind of resemble Diablo Treasure Goblins now.

The bottom section of Razorfen Kraul used to be covered in boars. In the new version, it's inaccessible and covered in tentacle vines that will pick you up and spit you back out if you jump down.

Ругуг has grown up and become a real boss. He is now the overseer of all geomancers and is very powerful with crystals.

Agathelos the Raging, a ferocious boar that fed upon bat guano, is now a corpse. Слепой охотник, formerly a rare elite, now feeds upon Agathelos and is a proper boss.

Overlord Ramtusk has leveled up and become Warlord Ramtusk. His encounter includes two spirits that are old RFK bosses--Aggem Thorncurse and Death Speaker Jargba.

The general spirit of the instance remains the same, but the spell effects are greatly improved--you get a much better sense of the power of the Razorfen Mystics now.

Курганы Иглошкурых

This zone also appeared to receive some changes on the Alpha--unfortunately the Тутен'каш was bugged and we couldn't explore further.
- The path leading to Amnennar is covered in toxic gas that kills even level 90s quickly. This is to force you to clear the northern part of the dungeon first.
- New quest: Приспешники Черношипа
- Користраза is back in the instance (now in dragon form) and explains the changes to the instance:
  I too thought Amnennar the Coldbringer had been defeated; a grave mistake indeed. How clouded my judgment must have been to forget the true power of a lich lies in the phylactery.
  
  A powerful necromancer such as Amnennar can store his soul in a physical vessel, allowing himself to be reborn if the proper rituals can be completed.
  
  I should have searched across Kalimdor for Amnennar's Phylactery, but I was too prideful in our previous victory. Now, all of that work may come undone.
  
  I know Death Speaker Blackthorn's newest creation, Mushlump, spews forth plague from every pore and he has reenlisted Modresh Fire Eye's help in rallying the undead.
  
  Even the Death's Head has been helping Blackthorn. Their Aranomancers have created a monstrosity of fang and plague, a spider of enormous size named Aarux.
  
  If you could defeat these enemies and clear the plague blocking my path we could climb the Spiral of Thorns to defeat Death Speaker Blackthorn and recapture Amnennar's phylactery before it is too late.

Комментарий от GeneralMeowI cringe whenever I see that Blizzard is revamping an old dungeon. After what they did to Scholomance and Scarlet Monastery, I would be happier if they just left the old content untouched.Комментарий от NulgarThose dungeons indeed were in the most need for an overhaul, each was quite labyrinthian (though I'm seeing few structural changes so far, except the trench in the Kraul)Комментарий от perculiaIt's interesting how RFD also forces you to do the north part first, since going south will literally two-shot you. I'll be doing a more in-depth look at that one once they fix the gong boss bugs.Комментарий от GeneralMeowThose dungeons indeed were in the most need for an overhaul, each was quite labyrinthian (though I'm seeing few structural changes so far, except the trench in the Kraul)Комментарий от arexuthe rope in bfd... LOL!Комментарий от CenturyKidHoping they've fixed that gap in the water "box" when swimming into one of the chambers in Blackfathom Deeps (can't remember which one it is right now, but anyone else who's experienced it will know what I'm talking about).
It's little things like that which have gone unchecked for years that made me think they've forgotten about some of the old dungeons...Комментарий от mdiscoIs vol'jin on the throne now on 6.0?Комментарий от jellybeansrfunThanks Blizzard,

You have successfully wasted over 50 hours of programming to "revamp" dungeons absolutely no one cares about. How about you spend that 50 hours of programming on actually giving us an expac before the 1 year mark of SOO being current content. #disappointment #worstexpacduration #longerthanWOTLK #evenlongerthanCataКомментарий от Lotrain84Those dungeons indeed were in the most need for an overhaul, each was quite labyrinthian (though I'm seeing few structural changes so far, except the trench in the Kraul)Комментарий от anglinjInteresting changes. I suppose these will have level 100 heroic versions.
I don't mind the changes so much as long as it makes some kind of sense but I somewhat miss Scarlet Monastery as it was. I hope they don't shrink the dungeon significantly.

side note: Who was even left from the twilight cultists?Комментарий от tankformI have to say I like these changes a lot, it may seem unnecessary, but it shows that everything that is going outside the dungeons also affects them and can build up to new stories, which I think is important for the game's lore developement.Комментарий от ZalmonI see people talking about how much of a waste of time they think this is, but I disagree. Blizzard hasn't always gotten revamps right, but RFK AND RFD were both in dire need of some TLC. RFK's length wasn't bad, but the lack of a map, the camera clipping and the overall labyrinth of it made it a little frustrating to play. These changes are going to receive a very warm welcome from me, even if everyone else hates them. :)Комментарий от RavenheartAny changes to Undercity? :)Комментарий от AzutaelAre the orc guards in Undercity also replaced ? I hope so, they've been there far to long : )Комментарий от LadyblaceI am totes excited that Them long boring dungeons are getting a touch up getting up in levels suck ass atmКомментарий от LadyblaceI can see your point but it from the looks os it , that did some little things to make the dungeon feel fresh .Комментарий от HondelykAm I the only one excited about new look of murlocs in bfd? They look awesome! Would be cool if all murlocs got a little revamp. :-)Комментарий от Raziel767They revamp these old stupid dungeons but not Quel'thalas... =[[[[[[[[Комментарий от noobking87I look forward to seeing the freed Orgrimmar. That place always makes me feel so uncomfortable in the last patch, even when playing an orc.Комментарий от DharayI think its good they change those to make a bit more sense now. It's nice they give old dungeons a little makeover if they keep the loot tables. I liked the new looks of scholomance and Scarlet Monestary but i was also real mad they removed alot of loot tables. But it seems the loot will stay the same on these so far.
