Model and Footprint

The model measures 2.2 by 0.2 yards across its base and stands 0.8 yards tall. Thousand Needles is not one model but 3: the client swaps display between placements, and 4 placements of the 8 read use the one measured above. Placement scale runs from 1x to 1.22x, so the smallest and largest copies of it differ by a factor of 1.2. Its art is client file 200453.

All 8 located placements sit on Kalimdor, the two furthest apart on one map stand 6,181.2 yards from each other on Kalimdor, and they range from 28 to 204.5 yards of altitude, a 176.5 yard climb between the lowest and the highest.
