When the last of the Sporemounds was defeated, spores teeming with the Spirit of Life seeped into the rest of Draenor.

While traversing through Legion‘s newest dungeon on this week’s leveling stream, Mitch pointed out that you could see part of the Tomb of Sargeras raid far, far below. I like it when dungeons and raids intersect on different levels like this — I honestly can’t recall the last time we saw it happen. The first instance I can recall is when you could see Magtheridon through the floor of the Blood Furnace in Burning Crusade. It made the dungeon feel absolutely gigantic, it gave players who paid attention to the scenery a sneak peek at future content while they were leveling — and it also just felt really, really cool.

While leveling Alliance has had its ups and downs, we've finally managed to hit every goal on our leveling bucket list -- and more!

How well do you really know your character?

I was delighted but also a little mystified when we stumbled into the Hanging Gardens in the Cathedral of Eternal Night. Gardens were definitely not something I was expecting when we wandered into the zone. I mean sure, the place appeared to have been connected to Suramar at one point in time, but from what I was aware, this section of the Broken Isles was the one that Gul’dan lifted from the seas of Azeroth.

Were the gardens underwater all this time? Did the Nightborne start tending to the place at some point after Gul’dan raised it from the depths of the ocean? I don’t know if we’ll ever get an answer to that one — but I appreciated the unexpected burst of pretty scenery in the middle of all the fel green.

Last week we discussed the evolution of Draenor – the unique circumstances that led to a world in a constant state of conflict.  The Evergrowth, a vast, sentient network of behemoth plants called Sporemounds, threatened to overwhelm the world.
