Around Azeroth: Cheat death

Okay, I've been listening to forum complaints that rogues are overpowered for months now, but this is the first time I've really believed it. Exhilos of Shadowmoon somehow survived this gruesome battle in the Barrens, either by being 25 levels higher than his opponents or showing up ten minutes after all these dudes killed each other off. But if the scene's still fresh enough for there to be blood on the ground, why are all the corpses skeletonized? Time to call in the Azeroth version of CSI. Maybe they can count how many skulls are in this photo, because I kept losing track.
Do you have any unusual World of Warcraft images that are just collecting dust in your screenshots folder? We'd love to see it on Around Azeroth! Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!
Remember to include your player name, server and/or guild if you want it mentioned. We prefer full screen shots without the UI showing -- use alt-Z to remove it. And remember to enter Caption This, guys and gals!

Looks like that little cove over the hill from Ratchet where you go to kill the Raptors. Lots of blood there, permanently.

There is, at most, only a couple of player corpses/skeletons there... the rest is just scenery.
What a waste of space this was.

Tom is 100% correct. This is the Raptor cove from the Barrens quest "Stolen Silver," where there is a small space packed with bloodstained dirt and broken bones.
The quest is given by an Orc officer who is stationed beneath the watchtower in The Crossroads.

Isn't it obvious? He's undead he cannibalized those corpses.

You are wrong. He is too skinny. You can see his ribs! After so much long pig...no. You are wrong.

Yeah, I have to agree with flawless. There isn't much too this screenshot. I have one with at lest 5 times as many skeletons (and of players for that matter) with my level 20 warrior. Moonglade is such a mess during the midnight festival when someone summons Omen :)

There are no player corpses, this is just scenery. That was kind of the joke.
Also, I play a rogue as my main.
