You may recall that in all the recent publicity about Lich King, the beginner’s instance on the Borean Tundra side - The Nexus - got mentioned quite a bit.
If you’re interested in finding out a bit more about it, a whole page has appeared on the Blizzard site describing the background of the place, what players can expect to face, as well as some basic info on the instance itself:
The Nexus
Location
Borean Tundra
Players
5 (The Nexus)
5 (The Oculus)
10/25 (Raid)
Wings
The Nexus (Lvl 71-73)
The Oculus (Lvl 80)
Raid (Lvl 80)
Enemies
Blue dragonkin, mage hunters
Theme
Home of the blue dragonflight and Malygos
There are also some new screen shots as seen below, showing off the cool interior. Can’t wait to try this instance out ![]()
BTW, WoW is still growing as we near the release of the expansion…







I sincerely hope that we’re not killing off Malygos. Please, please, please let there be some corrupted spirit from the Old Gods or something that is the thing we are fighting. Even 25 people of a lvl 80 would be nothing more than a pre-dinner snack for a Dragon Aspect!
