Players will be able to begin preparing to face Ragnaros in the Firelands when the Molten Front goes live early in Cataclysm Classic on September 17.
Like many of the daily quest areas already in the game, the Regrowth and Molten Front will feature several stages of content. Players will begin their journeys at the renewed Sanctuary of Malorne in Mount Hyjal, joining forces once again with Matoclaw and Archdruid Hamuul Runetotem to repel invading armies of elementals. From there, they must open a portal directly to the Firelands and establish a forward outpost that the Guardians of Hyjal, led by Malfurion Stormrage, can use to thwart further incursions by Ragnaros’s forces.
Rather than these stages only becoming available after a certain period of time or at the end of a long quest series, players will instead get to use a new alternate currency called Marks of the World Tree to unlock them at their own pace.
The later 4.4.1 update will also include a way for players to turn on High-Definition Textures as an option, which will provide enhanced visual fidelity to many textures in the game. This update allows for a revitalized game world while preserving the Classic aesthetics of the game. We will be testing this feature on the 4.4.1 PTR in the coming weeks.
To activate the High-Definition Textures option, open your game Options (Escape->Options) and make this change in the Graphic settings.
