{{Cataclysm/Update}}
'''Spell power coefficient''' is an intrinsic property of a spell that determines how much bonus damage or healing it gets from the [[spell power]] attribute accumulated from gear, buffs, and talents. In most cases, the coefficient is fixed for a spell; in other cases, it is changed by talents, such as various "empowering" talents, available to some caster classes. Spell power coefficients usually follow set rules outlined in the spell power article, but many exceptions exist. Exact spell power coefficients are tested experimentally and documented when well known.

|name=Azshara
The listed coefficients are base coefficients and apply for the whole spell and per target, unless otherwise stated. In addition, if talents which specifically affect the coefficient (such as {{ability|Empowered Fireball}}) exist for a spell, they are mentioned as well. Any effects which increase overall damage and/or healing, be it directly (e.g. {{ability|Darkness}}, {{ability|Moonfury}}) or indirectly (e.g. {{ability|Shadow Weaving}}), are not listed here.

'''Azshara''' is located in northeastern [[Kalimdor]], east of [[Ashenvale]], south of [[Winterspring]], and north of [[Durotar]]. It is a beautiful coastal area cloaked in eternal autumn. The trees and other flora are tinged in brilliant oranges and reds, and nearer the coast, great cliffs and sandy beaches line the ocean. The region's inhabitants can make life hard for the nature lover, however. Enraged ghosts, vicious satyr, stalking naga and ferocious wildlife can quickly put an end to those who venture too far from the road.

Before the [[Great Sundering]], this shattered stretch of coast along [[Kalimdor]]'s northern border was once a part of the [[night elven]] capital of [[Zin-Azshari]]; then came the [[demon]]s' expulsion from the world. The land was rent asunder and the sea thundered in, making the region a watery grave and leaving nothing but ruins of the once great city. The night elves who survived named this region — once glorious, now nothing but a shattered relic — Azshara, after their queen who was driven mad by demonic influence. Since that time, this place of rocky islands, jagged cliffs, and coral-choked seas has given birth to many tales.
== Paladin ==
 
Paladins also receive bonus damage from attack power on their abilities.
 
   
  +
Some night elves suggest that not all of the demons were banished, still lurking beneath the glittering waters of the Coral Sea and waiting to strike back. Others claim that Queen Azshara was not drowned, but transformed into a hideous aquatic thing who will someday lead her accursed followers to retake the surface world. A few whisper that the [[Dark Portal]] that first brought the demons to Azeroth remains and rests under the sea waiting for someone to reopen it. Still others assert that the ancient Sundering awakened something that dwelled in the deepest part of the ocean, something that will eventually burst forth in a tidal wave of destruction. Whatever the truth, night elves agree that the region is cursed.<ref name="Dungeons & Dragons Warcraft The Roleplaying Game 187-188">''[[Dungeons & Dragons Warcraft The Roleplaying Game]]'', pg. 187-188</ref>

A river separates the primordial wood from what land there is. The terrain beyond the river is little more than a strip of green above fragmented cliffs that rise high over a stretch of ivory beach. The waves of the shallow Coral Sea sweep against this beach, and islands — little more than spires of jagged rock — jut from the water. A twisted expanse of reef creates a labyrinth of coral beneath the ocean surface, making sea travel here virtually impossible.

The night elves consider the place cursed, and most other races find the constant storms unpleasant. There is but a single habitation in Azshara, the orc trading village of Grim Ulang, its residents telling of creatures flitting about the ruins of Zin-Azshari further along the cliffs, and murlocs and naga swimming in the Coral Sea. Bands of undead have appeared along the beach and at the fringes of the Ashenvale Forest. As well, the dark chants of demon cultists have echoed along the cliffs in counterpoint to the thunder of storms. Steady rumors and sightings have led to frequent night elf patrols and an increased martial presence in Grim Ulang.<ref name="Dungeons & Dragons Warcraft The Roleplaying Game 187-188">''[[Dungeons & Dragons Warcraft The Roleplaying Game]]'', pg. 187-188</ref>

In the upcoming expansion ''[[World of Warcraft: Cataclysm]]'', Azshara will be turned into a low level zone. The [[Bilgewater Cartel]] goblins, the Horde's newest ally, will make their home here, building a city into the cliff side, and destroying the [[Azshara Crater]] to make way for a large quarry.<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ji079bBDCJ4</ref> It is unclear as of writing how the Cataclysm has affected the landscape of the zone, however it is known that the goblins, to show their loyalty to the Horde, have reshaped Azshara into a giant Horde symbol.<ref>http://www.wow.com/2009/09/27/cataclysm-starting-zone-lore-and-other-new-details-revealed/</ref>

[[Kalec]] is rounding up all of the blue dragonflight, as he fears the death of [[Malygos]] will be a sign of weakness and Deathwing will send out agents to assassinate the remaining dragons within the flight. This holds true as the black dragonflight has invaded Azshara to hunt down [[Azuregos]].

Location Northern Kalimdor
For the naga and once Highborne queen after whom this region was named, see Queen Azshara.

Azshara is located in northeastern Kalimdor, east of Ashenvale, south of Winterspring, and north of Durotar. It is a beautiful coastal area cloaked in eternal autumn. The trees and other flora are tinged in brilliant oranges and reds, and nearer the coast, great cliffs and sandy beaches line the ocean. The region's inhabitants can make life hard for the nature lover, however. Enraged ghosts, vicious satyr, stalking naga and ferocious wildlife can quickly put an end to those who venture too far from the road.

A shattered stretch of coastline on Kalimdor’s northeast, Azshara was once the greatest night elf metropolis. The city fell millennia ago in the War of the Ancients, but a few ragged buildings perch on the cliffs overlooking similar ruins among the coral.[1] Much of the city of Azshara fell into the ocean.[2] The Horde has established a small outpost, Grim Ulang, in the area, but naga are a constant danger.[1]

History

Ruins of Eldarath

Ruins of Eldarath

Before the Great Sundering, this shattered stretch of coast along Kalimdor's northern border was once a part of the night elven capital of Zin-Azshari; then came the demons' expulsion from the world. The land was rent asunder and the sea thundered in, making the region a watery grave and leaving nothing but ruins of the once great city. The night elves who survived named this region — once glorious, now nothing but a shattered relic — Azshara, after their queen who was driven mad by demonic influence. Since that time, this place of rocky islands, jagged cliffs, and coral-choked seas has given birth to many tales.

Some night elves suggest that not all of the demons were banished, still lurking beneath the glittering waters of the Coral Sea and waiting to strike back. Others claim that Queen Azshara was not drowned, but transformed into a hideous aquatic thing who will someday lead her accursed followers to retake the surface world. A few whisper that the Dark Portal that first brought the demons to Azeroth remains and rests under the sea waiting for someone to reopen it. Still others assert that the ancient Sundering awakened something that dwelled in the deepest part of the ocean, something that will eventually burst forth in a tidal wave of destruction. Whatever the truth, night elves agree that the region is cursed.[3]

Getting There

AllianceAlliance
From Forest Song in Ashenvale, follow the road east into Azshara. The Alliance outpost Talrendis Point is just over the river.
HordeHorde
From Splintertree Post in Ashenvale, travel along the road east into Azshara. The Horde encampment Valormok is against the mountains, north of ruined Haldarr Encampment.

Geography

Bitter Reaches

Bitter Reaches

A river separates the primordial wood from what land there is. The terrain beyond the river is little more than a strip of green above fragmented cliffs that rise high over a stretch of ivory beach. The waves of the shallow Coral Sea sweep against this beach, and islands — little more than spires of jagged rock — jut from the water. A twisted expanse of reef creates a labyrinth of coral beneath the ocean surface, making sea travel here virtually impossible.

The night elves consider the place cursed, and most other races find the constant storms unpleasant. There is but a single habitation in Azshara, the orc trading village of Grim Ulang, its residents telling of creatures flitting about the ruins of Zin-Azshari further along the cliffs, and murlocs and naga swimming in the Coral Sea. Bands of undead have appeared along the beach and at the fringes of the Ashenvale Forest. As well, the dark chants of demon cultists have echoed along the cliffs in counterpoint to the thunder of storms. Steady rumors and sightings have led to frequent night elf patrols and an increased martial presence in Grim Ulang.[3]

There are no instances in this zone, though the micro dungeon Lake Mennar can be found here. In addition, the battleground Azshara Crater will be located in this zone if/when it is implemented.

Magus Rimtori's Thalassian expedition ravishes the region in search of Highborne relics. Lord Arkkoroc reigns from his watery temple. Loramus Thalipedes, the demon hunter, watches the horizon from his island refuge. Ogtinc assists experienced hunters and priests, and on another small island far to the east, Duke Hydraxis pits heroes of all calibers against their elemental foes, sending them deep into the very core of the earth in search of retribution. Lastly, the Gadgetsprings provide their services to Engineers by selling the very rare [Deepdive Helmet] schematic, among other things.

Map of Azshara in Cataclysm

In the upcoming expansion World of Warcraft: Cataclysm, Azshara will be turned into a low level zone. The Bilgewater Cartel goblins, the Horde's newest ally, will make their home here, building a city into the cliff side, and destroying the Azshara Crater to make way for a large quarry.[4] It is unclear as of writing how the Cataclysm has affected the landscape of the zone, however it is known that the goblins, to show their loyalty to the Horde, have reshaped Azshara into a giant Horde symbol.[5]

Kalec is rounding up all of the blue dragonflight, as he fears the death of Malygos will be a sign of weakness and Deathwing will send out agents to assassinate the remaining dragons within the flight. This holds true as the black dragonflight has invaded Azshara to hunt down Azuregos. Kalec and Azuregos help low level Horde players to repel the invasion.[6]
