To start off, I apologize that my other ‘Raid Talk’ post was also about Karazhan but I have to say… my God it’s massive. I remember the first time I went like it was yesterday….
I had very recently hit level 70, changed spec to Holy and had a mere +600 heal. A real life mate got me into ‘Hellfire Heroes’, in hindsight they’re not that great but I can’t exactly criticize them as they got me my first epics. It was a rather large guild, so 3 raid groups were going. It was all very exciting, 30 men on Vent whilst the raid leaders were in their private channel, discussing what was going to happen. I was put into the best geared group, a bit of a carry for me.
It was absolutely awesome. I got two epics going up to Curator, and was having a great time. However, the guild had a set path which they took. Attumen > Moroes > Maiden > Opera > Backdoor > Curator. But there are so many little nooks and passageways which I wanted to explore. Of course, I could go back in once we clear, but I always forget and I end up doing different things. From all the different raiding guilds I’ve been in, it seems they all have pretty much the same route, so there are still some places I have yet to discover.
Now, I use the AddOns Atlas and Atlas Loot, and here are the maps that Atlas provides for Karazhan.
If I’m going to be honest, these aren’t very useful. I need proper visuals and screenies, not some random islands all chucked together like this. There is of course a key to go with the map which explains what all of the letters and numbers are, but it’s still really confusing.
I don’t really have anything else to say, apart from that yeah.. Karazhan is massive. Because of this abrupt and probably disappointing ending, I have featured a video from YouTube showing a secret area found behind Karazhan. Enjoy!
