The location of one of the largest mountains in Azeroth, Highmountain is a rugged and beautiful place. Here, three tribes of Highmountain tauren are locked in a bitter struggle against the savage drogbar that threaten their lands.

Q. How would you describe the zone's ambience? What's it like?

Matt: The inspiration for Highmountain is a mix of Yosemite, the Swiss Alps, and Everest. We wanted to give players the sense that is the highest mountain, the tallest peak, in the game. We wanted to make parts of it seem almost uninhabitable, with glacial terrain and the kind of treacherous conditions you'd expect to find at such incredible heights.

Because it's the highest peak in World of Warcraft, so far at least, we wanted to give players a sense of progression within the harsh environment that the tauren and the drogbar have been living in. We wanted to acknowledge altitude, proximity to the ocean, exposure to the sun and shade, and what season it is. Currently it's spring, so the climate is mild to temperate. Crops are growing, and plenty of food and other resources are readily available. But imagine how cold it would be in the winter. It would be brutal, and most visitors probably wouldn't survive through the season. So there is always a huge effort to stock up on supplies and protect them from would-be invaders.

Ryan: If you're familiar with the War of the Ancients, you might recognize the namesake of the zone—Huln Highmountain, a renowned tauren who helped defeat Tichondrius many years ago. After receiving the Blessing of Cenarius, the tauren here have changed—they have moose horns instead of normal tauren horns, among other things—and we think players will enjoy getting to see a unique take on one of the game's most familiar races.

Matt: Long, long ago, Highmountain used to be the home of the Black Dragonflight. We didn't want to dig too deep into that for Legion, but there is definitely some interesting history in Highmountain that we can continue to expand on.

Because the waters of Highmountain flow into Suramar, Stormheim, and Val'sharah, the area also serves as the lifeblood of virtually every region on the continent. There's a lot riding on the taurens' ability to maintain balance in the zone. As part of that, the Rivermane tauren established a fragile peace pact between the Highmountain tauren and the drogbar as a means to survive in relative peace. As part of this agreement, they mutually benefit from one another's resources through trade at designated areas outside drogbar caves.
