Blizzcon 2007: Sneak Peak at Utgarde Keep

News | Aug. 7, 2007 (11 months ago) | by JamesZ | via www.gameriot.com | Filed in Blizzard Entertainment

Gameriot releases in-game footage showcasing one of the first 5-man instances, Utgarde Keep, in the upcoming World of Warcraft: Wrath of the Lich King.

The video shows off several new enemies, the first boss in Utgarde Keep (who's decked out in full tier 6), and caught a glimpse of what is to come in the new expansion.

You can find the video over at Gameriot.

though the hands on from ign i was reading did not that while the first few rooms of UK were fairly straight forward and not very challanging the final room ramped it up a good bit.

Got to play the 30 minute slot at Blizzcon with 4 of my friends and wasn't really that impressed with this.

We almost made it to the first boss before we got booted but the pulls were in groups of 4 lvl 70 elites and tbh the first pulls in Arca are harder than this. We had no cc and never even came close to dying and our gear is nothing special.

It was neat to see the new models and the forge, but was really disappointed with how the forge was non-interactive and had an invisible wall. Be interesting to see the rest but nothing really that special so far.

To be fair, the pulls in Ramparts weren't very challenging either. It's not fair to compare a max-level dungeon to the first dungeon of a leveling portion of content. :)

I think its quite fair and new content should be held to a higher expectation than older content.

Apparently to you, a "higher expectation" simply means harder. Keep in mind that new people coming into level 70+ content may not have done anything whatsoever at 70 and thus have very bad gear. Also, Ramps and BF were very easy when coming into BC, but after that the instances got quickly harder. It's your standard intro in the new world style place.
