Previous Battle for Lordaeron
Next Battle for Darkshore

The Battle for Stromgarde[3] is the first warfront in Battle for Azeroth where orcs and humans fight for dominance over the Arathi Highlands.[4]

Located in Arathi, Stromgarde Keep is one of the key locations in the struggle for controlling of the Eastern Kingdoms. For the Alliance, Stromgarde sits in a critical defensive position. Following the Battle for Lordaeron, the Horde threat still looms over the continent and holding Stromgarde will be key if the Alliance hopes to keep the Horde's aggression at bay. According to Captain Roderick Brewston in Stromgarde Keep, the Alliance fighting to reclaim Arathi is largely to ensure that they are able to continue to occupy neighboring Lordaeron.[5]

For the Horde, securing Stromgarde would set the stage for an assault on the heart of the Eastern Kingdoms and serve as a launching point for a campaign against the worgen of the kingdom of Gilneas. This location is also key in the defense of the blood elven capital, Silvermoon City, in the north.[6]

Stages[]

In order to be eligible to queue for the warfront, players need to be level 120, have an average item level of 320 or higher, and have completed enough of the campaign to have unlocked World Quests.

Alliance controls Arathi, Horde contribution phase[]

During this stage, the Warfront feature is not active for either faction. This stage will last until the Horde contributes enough supplies to reach 100% on their meter.

The Alliance starts off controlling Arathi Highlands. During this stage, Alliance players will be able to go teleport to Arathi, where there will be some things to do:

  • A number of quests to complete.
  • A special World Quest which tasks players with killing a Horde World Boss named Doom's Howl for loot.

Horde characters will not have control of Arathi, and on the docks of Zuldazar, players will be able to donate Profession items, Gold or Inv faction warresources [War Resources]. Contributing any of these items rewards players with The Honorbound reputation and Artifact Power for your Inv heartofazeroth [Heart of Azeroth], and increases the contributions percentage seen on the map.

Alliance controls Arathi, Horde Warfronts phase[]

During this stage, the Warfront feature is active for Horde players and starts the countdown clock for Alliance players who wish to access Arathi. This stage will last for 2 days (on beta).

There is no change to the content that is unlocked for Alliance players. They are still able to go to Arathi to complete the quests and kill Doom's Howl for loot.

Horde players will now have a short quest chain that culminates by unlocking the Warfront feature. All ccontribution NPCs will no longer be accepting any items and more Horde soldiers are seen around the docks of Zuldazar. The map will now show that the Warfront is active.

This quest line takes Horde players to Arathi and gets players to scout out Ar'gorok, Drywhisker Mine and Hatchet Ridge as they are the first locations that players will assault in the Warfront. Once the quest chain is complete, players will return to Zuldazar and be allowed to queue up for Warfronts.

Horde controls Arathi, Alliance contribution phase[]

Just like the first stage, neither team is able to access the Warfront feature at this time. This stage will last until the Alliance reaches 100% contribution.

Now, Horde will be able to teleport to Arathi at any point as they maintain control. There will be some things to do:

  • Complete a number of quests in the area.
  • Kill rare spawns for mounts and toys.
  • Defeat the Alliance World Boss The Lion's Roar for loot.

The Alliance will have contributions open, and similar to the Horde, be able to contribute Profession Items, Gold and War Resources for 7th Legion reputation, Artifact Power and contribution percentage.

Horde controls Arathi, Alliance Warfronts Phase[]

Similar to stage two, Alliance players will be able to access Warfronts and the countdown clock for Horde control of Arathi starts. This phase will also last for 2 days (on beta).

The content that Horde players have will not change. They are still able to teleport to the zone, complete quests and kill the World Boss The Lion's Roar for loot.

Alliance players will now have a short quest chain that culminates by unlocking the Warfronts feature. All contribution NPCs will no longer be accepting any items and the map will now show that the Warfront is active.[7]

Notes[]

  • The version shown at BlizzCon 2017 is actually unused and was far larger, including a second set of walls, a port and fountain park area for Stromgarde Keep.
  • The Battle for Azeroth Features Overview Cinematic apparently showed the Alliance and Horde forces, including their respective allied races, fighting each other at the Battle for Stromgarde.[8]
  • Under the orders of High Exarch Turalyon, the Knights of the Silver Hand fought once more on the side of the Alliance against the Horde, notably Lady Liadrin and her Blood Knights alongside the Sunwalkers,[9] indicating that the Silver Hand has splintered once again in the beginning of the Fourth War.
