    WotG Battlefields

    We are very likely to get a series of fights based on new monsters added in WotG.

    Well, first thing to note is that the three instanced areas seemed to double as battlefields. Additionally, there are hidden additions to the map that could be used as well.

    Aside from the tiger and coeurl variants, there has been 6/7 additions:

    Peiste
    Gnat
    Ladybug
    Rafflesia
    Slug
    Pixies
    (and Sandworm, though I doubt a normal orb-like battle with him)

    We are very likely to get 6 battles split between the three nations' instanced areas.

    Not really, Djinns are just a spin on bombs and everything else is from previous expansions.

    Afterthought Edit: Bombs are actually in classes of their own when it comes to BCNMs now i think of it: [3,2,1] for the ordinary red bomb, [When Hell Freezes Over] for snolls.

    By that logic, Djinns would get their own unique BCNM-event.

    There's also an ENM for polar hares.

    Note: Like the other non-beastman palette swaps in WotG, if you turn in a djinn soul plate, you just get a regular bomb. However, snolls simply cannot be used.

    EDIT: By the way, how much battlefields have been found so far? I've read about 1 in each stronghold, the Throne Room, 1 in Ronfaure, and 1 in Pashhow. Also, there's the Walk of Echoes (special event most likely, or just a map-less area) and PvP-looking thing in Karugo.

    Re: WotG Battlefields

    Im gonna go out on a limb and say the Walk of Echoes looks like a hub zone between maws, put some monsters in there and it could be a cool hub/dungeon area that connects all the maws together. Perhaps like an Alzadaal Undersea 2.0

    Karugo-Narugo looks really incomplete, hopefully a hub zone for WotG becomes accessable soon because its one of the shortcomings of people not wanting to exp in newer zones.

    Pretty much it, and the 3 instanced zones could probably be used if they want also.
