Emerald Dream being updated on the PTR.

[Hazzerd]

Hi, I was curious as to what has changed in Emerald Dream on the newest PTR patch, and was wondering if anyone that updated their own private server to said latest PTR would be kind enough to have a little look.

I'd do it myself, not on my own server, but on the actual PTR. I'd simply (or not so simply, heh) trigger my way to ED like I usual do. The problem is I cannot get the updater to work for me.

This was the post on MMOC -
"On a non related sidenote, I would also like to point out that the old Emerald Dream maps that have been in the game files for years have been slightly updated throughout the 3.2, and in the Build 10072 of the PTRs the Map.dbc file with some of the settings for each zone was updated to make it a 40 Players max zone."

Thanks to anyone that can find out more, and good luck.

I highly doubt that it's possible on Retail to reach Emerald Dream, even if it's possible I fear I may..disturb..the safety of my account. Although, if there is a 3.2.X Private Server, I'd be more then happy to assist you. But so far, I can't unfortunately.

It's possible.

Hellgawd that is true, it is part of quest chain in Icecrown Citadel.

The part I'm most eager for is the '40 man max'... perhaps 40-man raids?

Emreald dream in WOTLK? I mean it can be a Addon...

[Rohi]

Yeah, hope for 40 man raids
I bet still it will be more like raid place, but donno

I can't wait for the Emerald Dream. Used to run around in there on private servers and in sandboxes all the time.

Emerald Dream has been an old tossed around idea by Blizzard since the game came out and private servers found out about it. Over the years (not just recent patches) the Emerald Dream has been minorly upgrade regularly. Its safe to suspect that in 3.2 they are increasing production, because Blizzard has already started talking about the next expansion. What is in the next expansion is not clearly known, but it is safe to assume (as it seems it has always has been) that the Emerald Dream is going to be featured in the next big patch (not 3.2) or the next expansion (4.X)

Hopefully we'll hear more about Malfurion Stormrage, Cenarius and Ysera soon then.

I lul'd, hard. Lamperouge, Cenarius is sort of... How do I put this light? Oh, yeah. :P Dead. If you played Warcraft 3: Reign of Chaos, you'd learn that Grom Hellscream *And his band of orc pimps* killed him. Mal and Ysera are probably there, but Cenarius, don't count on it. xD Just thought I should update you on that.

The death of Cenarius at the hands of the orcs, demon-tainted or not, enraged the night elves, cementing their view of the savage, green-skinned (although red-skinned at that moment) creatures as their enemies. When Malfurion considered the possibility of allying with Jaina's and Thrall's forces, observing that they fought against the undead as well, Tyrande vehemently rejected the idea and cited the fact Cenarius had been killed by them as proof that they were the enemy.

Since his father Malorne was said to have a strong connection with the Emerald Dream, due to its connection to nature, Cenarius' spirit was able to live on in the Emerald Dream as a spirit of nature. The night elves believe he sleeps in the Emerald Dream while his wounds heal, and that he will some day join them again.WoWRPG 251

The only clue to Cenarius' current activities comes from a conversation his son Remulos has with the spirit of Malfurion when players complete a particular quest. It appears Cenarius is now helping Malfurion combat The Nightmare that is disrupting the Emerald Dream, causing the corruption of The Four Dragons among other things.

It is believed that he will manifest a new body and return to the world if given enough time to recover.LoM 15
