There is a topic about
Favorite / Least Favorite Instance
, also one about
Worst Instance
but I'd like to hear what is your favorite/worst instance
based solely on looks
. You might hate the pulls, bosses, loot - but it simply looks great! Or the other way around - it looks awful, but loot and fights might be just great.
So, write down best/worst looking instances, but also add a word or two whether you like fights/bosses/loot. You can use
this list
as a reminder.
Best looking:
Maraudon
, all 3 parts of it. I like the "Cenarion touch" in it :) and how it's full of life. Probably the best looks. You can see Feralas in 3rd path of the instance (princess run), Orange part is also awesome, Purple part has great interior...
Loot is really good, fights are great, bosses too.
Coilfang instances
are also "Cenarion type", yet not imaginative as Maraudon.
Shadowfang Keep
: old castle looks great, adds lore touch to it, there is something
classy
in it. Fights are OK, loot too.
Sunken Temple
: design is masterpiece, absolutely great, maze is fantastic, all the mobs fit in perfectly. Not to mention the great atmosphere in it. Fights are great, but not the loot.
Zul'Farrak
: can't say that I like the desert that much, but the trolls are giving it a great look :) fights, loot and bosses are great.
I might add
Scarlet Monastery
, as a nice looking instance, bosses are OK, although I find fights/pulls boring, but the loot is really good.
Worst looking:
Razorfen Kraul
, quite good loot, bosses aren't bad, fights/pulls quite good, but it simply looks awful. All those pigs are just awful - my hunter used a boar as a pet, and I still hate RFK :) Same goes for
Razorfen Downs
.
The Stockade
- hardly an instance... also looks awful.

The Blood Furnace probably gets my vote. You've got re-mutated pigmen in bio tanks & stealthy rogues who come up out of no where. Demons & even more pigmen in dresses, along with fancy swirling light trails or whatever at the end. Not to mention there are huge ass eyeball things that vomit at you & carry a cloud like Pig Pen from Charlie Brown. Did I mention there are mines that go boom?
Oh, ugliest...Ragefire Chasm, no doubt.

So the first paragraph was about the best looking one? I admit I'm confused. (Unless you ironically switched good/bad looking, and RFC is what you like :) )

i agree with you on almost everything except... RFD. i love that instance :D
especially the fight where you ring the gong and that scorpion thing comes out? i think his name is tuten'kesh or something... idk. the last boss was kind of cool too, it was nice fighting a boss that casted spells instead of just autoswinging ;)
i also vaguely remember something involving tons of skeletons... i think i might go solo it just for fun :D

Stratholme looked pretty cool and so did Blackrock Depths.
Deadmines looks terrible and so does Dire Maul.

Oh man, I looove Maraudon - just looks fantastic through the whole thing, my favorite areas are along the Orange path - Gotta love those spore-spraying plants and larva-spewing pipes :)
The waterfall room and the area leading up to the final boss are even better - absolutely gorgeous, imo.
I haven't been through Deadmines a whole lot as a Hordie, but gosh am I jealous - why isn't our Ragefire Chasm as cool as this? :(
You're infiltrating the base of operations of a gang of bandits, for pete's sake - winding tunnels, a huge furnace, a door you get to blast down with a cannon...
And at the end, a huge Battleship in an underground lake poised to wreak havoc on Westfall, complete with pirates. PIRATES. :O
Yeah, I'm kinda artsy :P

It really sucks that people won't run instances or do ANYTHING just for fun anymore. It's just about shiny blues and purples for them... just enjoy the game imo

I love Shadowfang Keep and Stratholme.
I hate Gnomeregan because it's damn confusing and just annoying as hell.
