Stormwind Harbor

From WoWWiki

Jump to: navigation, search
Stormwind Harbor

Stormwind Harbor is located in the northwestern area of Stormwind City, with the access point set between the Park and Cathedral Square. Players are able to sail to Northrend from there in Wrath of the Lich King.

The harbor gatehouse granting access to Stormwind Harbor was built by human, dwarven, and gnomish construction workers all under the supervision of Foreman Wick.

Stormwind Harbor itself is one of the major ports for transport to both Northrend and Kalimdor, thereby connecting to Valiance Keep in the Borean Tundra and replacing the Menethil HarborAuberdine line connecting the Eastern Kingdoms to Northern Kalimdor; the line to Auberdine now connects directly to Stormwind City, allowing night elf and draenei players to avoid the "death run" through the Wetlands.

It is worth noting that Stormwind Harbor features a new type of boat, an Icebreaker that is propelled by a steam powered paddlewheel. The Kraken, which runs to Valiance Keep in Northrend, is an example of this newly developed ship.

Lighthouse

Stormwind Harbor lighthouse

A short distance from mainland, just off the coast and north of the shipyard, the harbor lighthouse is located. Built on a small island, this lighthouse can clearly be seen from far away. The enormous size distinguishes it from the average lighthouse, indicating it might also function as a guard tower.

It is relatively featureless apart from the building and a boat, a crate, a dock, and a grave on the eastern side.

The Gate

The content behind the Gate in Stormwind Harbor is currently unknown, allthough it is most probably just another boat.

Scourge Invasion

On November 10, 2008, the Scourge Invasion entered a final stage, thereby unleashing a massive attack on the harbor led by Frost wyrms and abominations. The Alliance command, including Highlord Bolvar Fordragon and King Varian Wrynn, were stationed on top of the walls overlooking the harbor below.
