I swam out to this so many times just to poke around it.

When you're a level 8 running to UC for the first time this is the coolest thing in the world and so spooky.

Agree! Walking into the ruins of Lordaeron for the first time was so cool. I got lost in the Undercity forever.
Looking at all of these photos really bring back the 'feel' I had experiencing these places in vanilla. How is it so different now? I remember just walking through Orgrimmar and listening to the wolf howls and looking up at the hide tarps over The Drag, walking down into the Cleft of Shadow and visiting the trainer. It was all so much different than it is now.
"a few seconds before being ganked" kjwehfjkaewh
i'll always remember my first big wow moment in wow, lol. very first character was a night elf rogue which i got to level 20-something before changing realms and going horde.
anyway i was running around exploring in ashenvale, went over this bridge into some kind of land of eternal autumn looking place where a bunch of stuff killed me pretty fast if i got near it. that didn't put me off though, but soon i encountered this
and was suffienciently awed enough to run back to where i came from
I was getting ready to post BRM as soon as I read the topic. :mrgreen:
Truly iconic for both PvPers and raiders.

Didn't have to be either of those... Blackrock STILL feels like home when I go there while leveling. I did a little raiding (MC and part of BWL), but BRD, LBRS, and UBRS were a second home to me. Attunement runs, Onyxia key runs, pattern farming runs, Shanker runs, Finkle's skinner runs... I wish I had a dollar for every hour I spent inside those doors.

Maybe Eastern Plaguelands music? That thing has "danger, death, destruction, decay" written all over it, and there are some recurrent motifs there used in Felwood and some other dungeons as well.
Yeah, any place with a heavy Scourge or Forsaken presence will have very creepy, haunting music.
Gates of Ironforge/Org. Probably more iconic. Especially seeing as a large population of players never made it to blackrock mountain in retail.
Personally the top exit of venture co mine in Mulgore. I discovered this place years after I started playing because I decided to explore the full mine. After many wipes I reached the top. The view is amazing, you are higher than TB... And there's also an engineering trainer! It was one of the first places where I felt I wanted to dwelve into finding nooks and crannies of this world. It will always have a special place in my heart
The first time I walked up to these gates I just had to stop for a few seconds in awe. I'd finally made it to the place I'd seen on all of the PvP videos I'd been watching. A few seconds was all I had before I was ganked, obviously. Nonetheless, this particular location has a special place in my heart and is the first thing I think of when somebody mentions Vanilla.
What's your special place? :lol:
There's been so many classic videos that involve this exact location that I think makes it one of the most iconic places in classic.
For me, I also think Teldrassil is one of the most iconic zones in classic, from the lighting, to the music, the atmosphere is sculpted in such a mystical manner that really builds the core "feeling" of what WoW is about.
