Your progress is saved even if you do not kill all 5. Values Tip: Every time you get to this area, you will have a bonus objective ( H) to kill enemy Priests ( H).

It is also the only stage in which both sides fight "equally" (more on stage buffs momentarily). This is the area the Battleground resets to when one faction wins. In the center of the battle lies the Crossroads. There are a few finer points to each of the sub-nodes of the battleground as well, included in the other tabs above. If your team captures this flag, the battleground's objective is "pushed" toward the other team by 1 node. The objective of every other node is to capture the aforementioned EotS-style flag. The objective of the final nodes is to kill the enemy faction's leader, as explained above. There are 7 "nodes" in total, noted as pins on the map, with the final two highlighted in red (H) and blue (A). This vertical trail is known as the Road of Glory. In the map above, notice the vertical trail that connects the Horde base to the Alliance base. In order to understand how the battleground advances, one must first visualize it. These battles each feature an Eye of the Storm-style flag. When the Battleground is won by either side, there is a 5 minute pause after which, the Battleground simply restarts fresh at the Crossroads.īefore you can defeat the enemy faction's leader, you must win several "battles" along the way.

The Horde's leader is High Warlord Volrath. The leader of the Alliance, which must be killed by the Horde, is Grand Marshal Tremblade.
