Sunwell Isle map :)
Now, before MMO Champion gets the jump on this...



And to show where it is in relation, the continent map. Compare in relation to this map




Mind you, the PTR is (as of the time of this post) not up but the client is available. I had to piece this file together by hand so please don't mind it being off a little.

EDIT: added a continent map to show where the plateau is in relation to the current landmass.

EDIT 2: I admit, I named the post poorly. It should've said "Sunwell Isle" instead of "Sunwell Plateau". The Plateau is the raid & Isle is the zone. Fixed.

EDIT 3: Hello, WoW Insider readers. :)

*makes note to avoid Greengill Coast*

According to an earlier screen of the isle, there's murlocs on the isle. And Sunwell Isle is a 70+ place so I can only imagine the ferocity of a murloc at that level...

All the other places I'll visit and explore, but that named coast I'll just stealth in and out just to put it on my map.

I'm worried about the undead in the Dead Scar, remembering levelling a BElf there early on....

What we need is a giant murloc raid boss!

I suspect the last boss of the last expansion will be such. :D

I don't really understand where this fits into Eversong. I always thought the Sunwell was in that ruined section of Silvermoon City, which certainly doesn't look large enough for that size area. Not to mention, how is it an island? How is it a plateau?

Not saying it isn't cool, just saying I don't get how the geography is working here. :P

The plateau is part of Sunwell Isle which is the section that was being added. As for it being part of Silvermoon... maybe it broke off?

Well, looking at the map I guess they're adding it just to the east of Sunstrider Isle. I kept thinking they were trying to fit all this into the ruined area of Silvermoon since I thought that's where the Sunwell was.

If you think back to W3:TFT, while charging to ress Kel'thuzad, Arthus breaks down the gates and everything is killed on his way (The Dead Scar now) The Sunwell will be directly North of Silvermoon, and I wouldn't be surprised if they just attached it.

You're not far off. Take a look at the edit I made to the parent post.

How do you get there if you're Alliance?

(Nice map, btw!)

Same way Arthas did: kill your way there, trashing any elves/elf settlements you find on the way! But seriously, it's an island. There'll either be a boat or the flight point will be auto-enabled or enabled after completing an intro quest.

i think i'm slow.

this map is really awesome.

but.. is this going to be some game content? or is this just a map of a place that once existed? like old hillsbrad? is this going to be new expansion material? or just added through patches content?

(sorry if I'm stealin' your thunder by asking dumb questions.. i'm lost lol)

Yes, this is Sunwell Isle and is currently being tested on the PTR. It will be coming in the 2.4.0 patch and is a level 70 zone.
