"In the novel Night of the Dragon, it is revealed that Deathwing, the insane Black Aspect and ancient enemy of Alexstrasza, resides deep inside Grim Batol." (WoWWiki)

Fair enough. I'm guessing most didn't even realize it since that book has only been out for a bit over a month, so I'll count "Deathwing" as votes for "Grim Batol" as well.

[Begpo]

Want COT: BT Illidan, Magtheridon, Vashj, Kael'tas in one place - cool :-)

[Eulo]

I'd say if you think Deathwing is in Grim Batol, then vote based on whether you'd like to see Grim Batol more because Deathwing is there or because of the other possibilities it could offer.

[Fengor]

I would suggest an instance that involves arthas getting frostmourne/final confontation with mal'ganis, but we already see enough of pretty boy so i think someone else needs a turn.

Here's what I'd like to see. Since CoT is the place I wish there were more dungeons I have two requests for locations and/or subjects of a new wing.

1. Something with Kael 'Thas, maybe the tower bonus level from WC3:FT

2. The liberation of the forsaken, idealy the seige against Lordaron after the dreadlords have set up shop

Spelling does not work for me after midnight, so if anything is misspelled blame it on lack of sleep.

Malygos ---> Dargonish Raid
Naxx ---> Plaugeish, Dkish
Icecrown ---> Arthas (end game)
Ulduar ---> Titany Raid

Seems there is only spot for an Ajzol-Nerubish raid if they wanna make a non repetitive raid.

Grim Batol would be an awesome dungeon, but we should not be able to engage Neltharion, since that would be really annoying having a 5 man dungeon with one of the mightiest dragon aspects on Azeroth as its final boss.

[Brozenhammer]

I see Gilneas and Grim Batol as the only viable options at this point. Uldum is highly improbable due to the fact that 3.1 is a titan raid complex and so having two titan places doesn't make sense. On the other side, Gilneas offers a large range of possibilities, as it fits the content because the place was isolated from the rest of the world since the start of the plague so no one knows what's happened in there, so it would be interesting finding it out. Also, Grim Batol is a dragonkin dungeon, though there's not as many connections to there as to Gilneas, the black aspect was thrown back into the game with the introduction of Northrend, so what I would see in Grim Batol is possibly something ancient yet touched by the present menace, which is the undeads.

Keep in mind, Grim Batol is a sprawling city (or once was, anyway). There is likely room for a number of winged instances, so I'm sure if it is the 3.2 dungeon we'll see content for everyone, ala Isle of Quel'Danas.

[Gwyllion]

I doubt 3.2 will house something as big as a fight against Deathwing, considering 3.3 will have Arthas. I personally hope it will be Uldum, and that we will get some information about the emergence of the Kalimdor races there. Or, considering that probably a serpent escaped it, which could be Hakkar imo, it could house Troll history.

What I also would like to see, but I doubt will ever be in game, is the titan vault beneath Maraudon, Terramok.

[Sinocte]

Something I would love to see, either through a CoT addition, or somehow in a "lost world" sort of way is a troll area that isn't ruins. I look at the scope of something like the Drakkari empire and I can't help but wonder what it was like new. The lore in the area said that the Drakkari were pushed to northrend due to their violent natures, so it could be something like a CoT where you get to help the Amani and Zandalari trolls push the Drakkari out of Kalimdor.

[drypulse]

hmmm, deathwing's lair go poof from the list. odd

[Brozenhammer]

Gilneas it is.

[archer75]

I'd love for it to be Grim Batol, but my inside info says it's Uldum.
