Does anyone know where exactly this isle is located? Is it closer to Kalimdor or Eastern Kingdoms?

About halfway between, south of them both. --Xmuskrat 10:45, 8 September 2006 (EDT)

Ah, thanks. This raises some questions as to how the Goblins came into the Horde during the Second War though, doesn't seem like there is any clear story on that yet. --Korgo 00:48, 15 September 2006 (EDT)

Kazan/Kezan? Edit

Why does the RPG map have it spelled "Kazan" if it was originally named "Kezan"? -- Fandyllic (talk · contr) 5:15 PM PST 7 May 2008

You got mixed up. It was originally spelled Kazan. But WoW and later sources gave an updated spelling. The map you refer to was released around the time of The Frozen Throne.Baggins (talk) 00:23, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Maybe it was too reminiscing of Kazan, "one of Russia's largest cities". Doesn't sound like the Warcraft city has anything to do with the Russian city, so they changed the name slightly when they noticed that. And yes, I remembered "Kazan" because of Quantum of Solace ending there ~ Nathanyel (talk) 18:31, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

Kezan is a volcanic island, right? Well, Japanese for volcano is "kazan" (火山, fire-mountain). By changing the spelling slightly, it is less obviously a Japanese name. eirik174 (talk) 8 August 2012

Please Note Edit

"Goblin players will start on the Isle of Kezan and then head to the Lost Isles in the South Seas before joining the mainland." from http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/cataclysm/faq/ —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SandersP (talk · contr).

That can be noted, but the when is still unknown. Intro movie? First level? First quest? Ninth level/quest? Kirkburn may know.--SWM2448 19:45, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

The other info on races and capitals has not been verified so shouldn't the page exclude that information? SandersP (talk) 20:46, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

If the 'other info' is what I am thinking of (the infobox?), it is about an often-mentioned but never seen pre-Cataclysm Kezan. That brings up the question of what to do with other pre-Cataclysm info. It is not wrong, it just changed...--SWM2448 20:50, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Then I guess it makes since to leave it as it is until the expansion is released :P SandersP (talk) 20:53, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

We don't know if it is actually a 1-5 zone.it could just be an intro movie of kezan we don't know we are actually going to play there.Almasa (talk) 01:38, May 3, 2010 (UTC)

I think it was explicitly confirmed as a 1-5 zone somewhere, but: the playable part at BlizzCon and subsequent conventions starts at level 5, for goblins it was the Lost Isles, and we know they just arrived from Kezan. This and pre-Cataclysm Gilneas are the new DK starting area as in instanced prequels of non-instanced zones - well, we don't know yet whether we can return to Kezan, but it'll still be instanced. ~ Nathanyel (talk) 14:39, May 3, 2010 (UTC)

The Volcano Edit

It's actually revealed that a footbomb causes the volcano to explode, as your character tries to get the footbomb over the post, but you kick it too far and hits the volcano, causing it to explode. Odd way I know. :l Kranitoko (talk) 10:49, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

I have a feeling that bit is just a coincidence to make you think, "oh crap, I screwed up big time." -- Dark T Zeratul (talk) 15:58, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

It's never explicity stated you cause it and left open as to if you did or it was a coincidence. It's pretty comical either way. :p -- <imagelink>http://www.zealvurte.co.uk/temp/sig-av/wiki_zeal.png%7CUser:Zealvurte</imagelink><imagelink>http://www.zealvurte.co.uk/temp/sig-av/wiki_talk.png|User talk:Zealvurte</imagelink><imagelink>http://www.zealvurte.co.uk/temp/sig-av/wiki_contribs.png%7CSpecial:Contributions/Zealvurte</imagelink><imagelink>http://www.zealvurte.co.uk/temp/sig-av/wiki_end.png|User:Zealvurte</imagelink>  16:08, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

Most likely as Zeratul said, that or the footbomb merely accelerates the eruption, which is caused mainly by the Cataclysm - because, when else do the Goblin starting areas show effects of the Cataclysm? The destruction/eruption of the mountain/volcano on the Lost Isles is caused by defeating (Goblin for "blowing up") the Volcanoth. ~ Nathanyel (talk) 18:54, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

Map Edit

So, the zone map is Kezan or Bilgewater Port? Let's not continue reverting. Kirkburn  talk  contr 17:48, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

The zone and map are labeled as Kezan. Im positive everyone understands whats shown is only a small piece of the island (Blidgewater Port). But if were trying to remain accurate with how it's labeled and found in-game then Kezan is the appropriate label here.Warthok Talk Contribs 17:54, July 3, 2010 (UTC)

On the Island I have only seen jungle trolls, goblins, and some human and dwarf pirates so where are the elves and forest troll? heck I haven't even seen a gnome!Asajames3 (talk) 15:26, December 24, 2012 (UTC)
