It would have been nice if Blizz gave us a little heads up that Freya was walking around and will kill us very quickly while we are looting the Iceberries. I'm currently level 84 with an iLvL of 148.31. I wondered what the [npc=244628] was for. I was just five steps away from one when I got "attacked". I was dead by the time I had taken three steps towards the [npc=244628]. I'm not sure if she just walks in a specific area (atm I'm sitting in one of the [npc=244628] watching her. Seems to only go in a small circle around me. For those with TomTom I'm at /way 36.64, 46.53. I got out of the [npc=244628] and watched her for a bit. As I watched her, I don't think she attacked me. Seems maybe I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Several players (mounted) rode past her without her attacking them. I think I must have just been in her path and she didn't see me. She seems to be patrolling around that small area. Should be easily avoidable.

For the <Stay awhile and listen.> part of Echoes and Memories:

I thought it was so dang cool that they finally made it so that NPCs actually move around while they're talking to each other! During this particular one, [npc=23746] and Hagar will talk to each other while occasionally walking around each other, or towards or away from one another. It's done at points in the conversation where it makes sense, so it really positively adds to the immersion, since real people generally don't just always stand in one spot every time they talk to each other.

This was the first time I've ever seen this, to my recollection, since they started implementing the <Stay awhile and listen.> thing. And if they've done it before (where NPCs move around while talking), they most definitely haven't done it to the extent that they did with this one!

Super small details, but it's the details that really pull the world together! Here's hoping they continue adding these types of details to improve the immersion in WoW. <3
(I even submitted an in-game suggestion praising this design choice, so they know it was noticed and received favorably!)

Description

The history of the haranir has been recorded for tens of thousands of years in the caves within. The memories of our people are painted on the stone, that we might never forget where we came from and what our purpose is. You are the first outsiders to ever witness the Den of Echoes. When you touch the paintings, our ancestors will share our stories and struggles. Zur'ashar Kassameh awaits you within. He will guide you and Halduron on your journeys. I wish you luck.

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
