I really enjoyed how this character, Pathaleon the Calculator, was really built up throughout the journey to the Outlands (for Blood Elfs) and had a really strong presence in the quest to destroy his manaforges. As a level 7 bloodelf mage when I first saw this guy's transmission image I almost ran away from the scene, but it was safe :) I had the chance to hear of the Calculator's plots and knew he had to be some really high general of some sort.

I would always see that ?? elite and be thinking, I can't wait to finally fight him. He seemed like he would be a really high tier boss in Tempest Keep. He has so many appearances throughout various questlines. My buddy and I were always foiling his plots and he would always be disgruntled with his liutenants over the various array of manaforges. When I saw him for the first time in Mechanar I knew it was going to be a cool showdown.

I liked the implementation of a chracter this way. If this is even remoteley what we will be experiencing for Arthas, the battle against him will be really epic :)

I just wanted to comment on how I really liked the implementation of a character to a boss like this. Are there any other note worthy characters that develop a plot that we consistently foil and have to actually face the boss at the end of chain that you still remember?

Thank you for your time.

I definitely enjoyed this character too. Not only is he lurking around you as you level up and complete quests, but it was a fun encounter to finish the story with him in The Mechanar.

We look forward to bringing more exciting stories and quest lines in Wrath of the Lich King, who knows what else you will find hiding in the shadows of Northrend....

You can cut the act Bornakk. We know it's him summoning Kil'Jaeden on the Sunwell Plateau.


Are you saying the Sunwell Plateau is lurking in the shadows... in Northrend?

Now you're just trying to confuse us. Well it won't work.
