Boubouille over at MMO-Champion has a bunch of great videos that he put together of some Wrath content. Some of them are data mined, while others show in-game content. All in all, they're quite an interesting thing to watch for those of you who want to see Wrath content right now.The videos that are available are hosted on Vimeo, and we've embedded them after the break for easy viewing. You can take a look at footage form Utgarde Keep, Drak'tharon Keep, and The Nexus.
I know that some people are concerned with spoilers, so don't watch these if you don't want to see everything. They're taken from the alpha and the videos give a clear view of everything in the dungeons.
Enjoy!
Utgarde Keep
In this video the level 70 dungeon Utgarde Keep is explored. UK, as I'm sure it'll end up being called, is a multi-winged dungeon that has instances for level 70 – 72 players and for level 80 players. Much like today's Hellfire Citadel.
Utgarde Keep was also playable at both BlizzCon '07 and at the recent World Wide Invitational 2008.
Drak'tharon Keep
In Warcraft lore, Drak'Tharon Keep is where Arthas stayed as he went looking for Frostmourne. The Keep is located in Grizzly Hills. It was originally occupied by Ice Trolls, but has sense been taken over by the Scourge.
Drak'Tharon Keep is for level 74 – 76 players.
The Nexus
The Nexus is another multi-winged dungeon that is for 5-man level 71 – 73 groups, 5-man level 80 groups, and 10/25 man raids (where players will encounter Malygos).

Private servers are against the Terms of Service, and the EULA. Way to promote illegal activity...

Now that the NDA is gone it doesn't matter what get's revealed.

Since when is viewing information using a client that the content owner doesn't approve of illegal? In fact, as owner of this copyrighted comment posting, i hereby deem this post unfit for viewing with Internet Exploerer, Mozilla Firefix, and Safari. Viewing the content with these browsers violates my Terms of Use and is therefore "illegal."

He's right, and this has nothing to do with the NDA at all, Dragarius.
Just because the NDA has been lifted does not mean private servers are now legal. They are, in fact, against the TOS.

Its not illegal...its against Blizzards ToS, which they can sue you for. But that doesn't make it illegal, and the police couldn't arrest you for doing it! ;)

Dragarius, that's my point. Since there is no NDA for the beta, and people should be playing beta any day now, there is no reason other than impatience and a lack of good topic, to post stuff from private servers.
There will be plenty of legitimate information out there any day now.

While this is against Blizzards ToS this is not an official Blizzard site. They are not employed by Bliizard. Therefore as a news source for all things WoW, they can pretty much report whatever they want. If they dont like it they can send a letter of intent to WoW Insider and have them remove the videos. But that still doesnt change the fact that they can report on it. Just like if they wanted to do a report on Glider or bots or purchasing gold. Media is supposed to be unbiased. T,hey report their findings and you the public decide what to do with the information. You dont have to watch the videos. You dont even have to read the article In fact Blizzard probably wont do anything as all this does is increase anticipation and desire for the expansion (read: profit for Blizzard)

Heh, we're linking stuff from private servers now?
Boubouille Jul 19th 2008 10:04PM
These videos aren't from private servers.
Private servers don't have creatures spawned or stuff like that, these videos were made on the alpha server, build 8471.
TotalBiscuit Jul 19th 2008 10:20PM
There ya go. Looks like some facts need to be checked next time. Using a private server is a pretty serious allegation against a fan-site, and not to be made lightly.
