COT: Stratholme
Level Range: [80] (Req: 75)
The Culling of Stratholme, taken from the campaign of Warcraft III will be the Caverns of Time’s 4th instance wing and is set to be for characters level 80, and will require a 5man party.
Set within the City of Stratholme players will battle alongside Prince Arthas as he sets out to “Cull” the city of its denizens, ensuring they do not spread the deadly undead plague any further.
The purging of Stratholme is one of the first acts in Arthas’ descent into madness and evil, eventually becoming one of the Lich King’s greatest death knights and later the Lich King himself. (WoWWiki)
