    [Thought] Orc starting area

    I simply write this because It's been haunting my head and getting the idea out here should bring my mind at ease; it's not a suggestion to blizzard, only to people who feel like changing their server up a bit ..


    The "Kul Tiras" have the horde pinned down at the gates of Durotar, newly created characters would start at 67 aboard a zeppelin hovering above Durotar; there they can briefly equip theirselves with gear given from a <War Effort Commander> and when you're done can talk to <Engineer> who will 'push' you off the ship and give the parachute buff.

    First quest would be "Stopping The Assault"
    Horde Commoners are pinned down in Durotar by the "Kul Tiras", your assignment would be to slay 10 'Kul Tiras Marines' at the gates of Durotar and return to <Bloodguard> to turn in the quest.

    Next quest could be "Avenging The Emmisary", where you have to plow through a few more "Kul Tiras" to find <Horde Emmisary>, after inspecting his body <Kul Tiras Commander> will spawn and attempt to kill you.
    Your task is to kill him and return his badge to <Bloodguard>.

    At that point you'd phase out and see a short cinematic where a second zeppelin has arrived with reinforcements.
    They take out the remaining Kul Tiras accordingly and <Bloodguard> will point you towards <Bat Rider> who will give you a quest that your next assignment lies in Northrend and when accepting will port you there accordingly.



    If only I could script, host a server and be assed to do it myself
    Ohwell:wave:

    Seems very simple / boring unoriginal quests. Why not try something like "Use the harpoon at the correct times to shoot down the necropolis" etc.

    Watch from 1 minute in, I made a quest chain where you need to enter a necropolis (using naxx as a world map type) and making them do tasks etc to lower the shields and such, then you get out, take over a vrykul base using phasing and use a harpoon after getting ammo to destroy the Necropolis, this was done in ~6 hours (it's only shown for ~10 seconds so just stop it once you seen it).
    Put your mind to it, a lot is possible but nobody does it. Who's ever seen anyone make use of the "required emote" columb in quests for example? I made a simple quest in a couple of minutes that required you to dance with a few people.

    Simple, get a DBC editer from the model editing section and have a look round for hidden displayid's and such. You would be suprised what you find, once you find something that gives you a basis for something to do then you can create epic content with a couple of well placed npc's/objects and a short Lua script. People think it's all advanced, it's not.
