Eye of the Storm Posted in ,

Eye of the Storm is a level 61-70 BG located within Netherstorm (flying mounts are not allowed inside the BG). Since I PVP with Kimico, I have not yet been in there. However, my friend Tigonmaster on Greymane is a PVP junkie and shared some of his experience with me.

EOTS is sort of a combination of Warsong Gulch and Arathi Basin. Each team tries to control as many of the 4 towers as they can, the more towers you have the faster your points amass. There is also 1 flag in the middle. You score additional points by capturing the flag inside one of the towers controlled by your team. The points awarded per flag capture depend on how many towers your team controls. The first team to 2000 points wins.

Objective

The main objective for each team is to hold as many towers as possible, much like in Arathi Basin, and then to score points by bringing the flag from the center of the map to one of the those towers. The towers work much like those in the Eastern Plaguelands or Hellfire Peninsula: players stand in them to capture them and the more people standing in them the faster the capture goes. More towers held increases the potential to score points. Each flag return to a friendly tower rewards points depending on the number of towers controlled by the team. The game ends when one side reaches 2000 points. If the flag carrier dies (similar to Warsong Gulch) then the flag is dropped and can be picked up by any player. If the flag is not promptly picked up after being dropped, it will return to its spawn point (much like Warsong Gulch). Again, a player may return the flag to any tower owned by their team, so holding many towers is helpful not only in scoring points, but also in creating more options in retrieving the flag. — Wowwiki
