Which instances/raids are disappearing in Cataclysm?

My faith in this company has been restored.

This is the incentive I need to go get the dungeonmaster achieves on both main teams this weekend.....

Gnomer is going to be gone... apparently Blizz is setting up a pre-cataclysm event where the Gnomes get their city back and get a whole new starting area.

***Spoiler Alert***


If you've kept up with the test realm forums you'll see that the gnomes pretty much fail. So even Gnomer isn't being deleted...

On a side note the upcoming event is craptastic all around... Bunch of build up that's lead to a very anti-climatic end...

Fair enough. Will need to check out the forums for the PTR. I have just copied one of my solo toons over to the PTR so I could have a look at it, only to find out that it was all over

My sources told me to get my Thunderfury while I could since Ragnaros won't be in MC anymore, and it is doubtful that MC will remain. I was also under the impression that the other instances in Blackrock would be removed since they are adding some in there to replace them. Unfortunately, we won't know until launch, so it's anyone's guess.

I'm not sure a lot of the old world instances would even make sense after things change. I'm both a little sad and a little excited about all the change that should take place, but I'm betting we will get the least suitable solution: no changes to old instances that make no sense in the new zones.

From the press coverage stuff that came out a couple days back, you can already start to sense Blizzard is getting a little panicked about hitting the Christmas sales target of a late November launch.

I sure hope that the original molten core will remain cause ive killed one the bosses close to 40 times now, still no sign of that elusive binding i lack. Boost droprate nooooow imo

I still have 1 HoR to farm so all 4 shammies have one

Man you're going to hate me...Got both binding within 4 runs and finished up my Thunderfury! Still run MC for the eye of rags and reputation- in this time seen around 5 more bindings.

Only thing I got left from the old world to do is the ZG tiger- got the raptor after about 8 months hitting it every reset. That tiger though is sketch for sure lol.

Souca they said they are going to give the old dungeons some love. Sure that means new textures and hopefully some tweaking. What they're going to do with Ragnaros seems a bit of a mystery although many mobs are in 2 places at once. Do we actually fight Ragnaros again?

I'll try and find the blue post I saw a month or so ago - said something along the lines- Don't worry you'll be able to get eye of rags after Cataclysm.

[jinkobi]

Well I did find that blue post- it's just that I misinterpreted what was being asked by the OP. It was in the Cataclysm section but they were talking about the current MC loot table and how Earthfury Pauldrons are missing. Then a blue chimed in confirming they were missing but the Eye still drops etc...

So I guess no official word as of yet if original MC will still be there come Cataclysm.
