Black temple

Has anyone noticed that on Blizzards official site the Black temple (Place where you fight illidan) does not show up on its recent update of new instances despite appering on many world of warcraft sites such as wowwiki.com, thotbott etc. Makes u wonder

It's not going to be ready for release probably.
Not much to wonder about...

I foresee alot of loot drama on who's gonna get the moonblades lol. To bad palas can't dual weild.

Anyway thats far into the future, you prob need some wicked gear before going there so they got time to get it done.

I saw something on the official effect that 6 dungeons will be in at release with 3 patched in later (probably Zul'Aman, Gruul's Lair, Black Temple as they aren't highlighted in the feature page)

doesn't matter if they are up on release, no one will get to lvl 70 for a few weeks so they have a good month to get the patch out

I wonder why it would take til after 16 january to release Gruul's Lair, because from what I've heard of it, it only hosts two encounters and being a Lair it should take about two seconds designing it :). Zul'Aman and Black Temle are the only two stand alone long 25men-raid encounters so it would make sense that they are released last and my guess is that those two give tier 5.
There is a quest for the Hyjal key that requires the death of Kael'Thas and Lady Vasj so I guess these three are first progression wise and after that come the tier 5 instances ZA&BT.
