The "horseshoes" on the rocks in Mulgore are a reference to prehistoric humans putting their hands on cave walls and blowing dye to form the outlines of their hands in this proto-paint.
also buffalos becouse they are native americans ^^
Yeah, those are just handprints. Tauren hands only have 2 fingers and a thumb so they look a bit strange.
And the “llama-horse” thing he mentioned looked like maybe it was a step in Tauren evolution from quadrupeds to bipeds. Or maybe it’s representing the centaurs
@@channel_lurker not really, bison were an essential part of megafauna around the world. one of the most well known bison cave painting in the Altamira cave is in today's Spain
@@themonolougist I think they meant because the Tauren have a lot of Native things incorporated into them and Natives and buffalo are very closely associated.
Being a pet collector in World of Warcraft is really one of the most underrated experiences because it brings you to all sorts of corners of the world. You are literally forced to look at the small details from random vendors to secret areas just to find pets.
I was gonna get the Zookeeper title to honor one of my friends (hasn't died, just respect) because he told me he wanted to work at a zoo. Then I found out some of those pets are tied to either summer or winter solstice cycle. That's pretty wild lol, and I bet that's not even THAT wild.
@@bart10050Some you can only get when it's snowing too.
@@davidcosta2244 Ah yes! And Baby Ape when it's raining. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me but I think little things like this are very fun. Unless you have to wait 6 months to get an achievement... But the pay of is even bigger when you do get it!
@@bart10050 Minion of Mayhem is also a fun one to do
i looooooved the dalaran mail quest where you have to deliver an invincible to a "player" that forgot to loot arthas
I absolutely love the furbolgs and I did not know about that house. I grinded in that area of Felwood so much as well.
I THINK this might be added in Cata? It looks like the model from Wrath's Grizzly Hills inside. Outside is still vanilla, I think they matched them up.
were approaching dangerous levels of "point" here lol, learned 9 things
Like... I learned too... but did I really?
Top ten Raid Chests that appear after defeating a boss, like the one that after you kill Elegon which has a very constellation-like design similar to the boss itself. I feel like many of these have a cool look and are easily ignored.
I feel that the crabs with dragon skulls and dragon vertibrae on them is actually a Monster Hunter reference. There's a few crab monsters that wear Diablos skulls like hermit crabs.
Yes! The Daimyo Hermitaur I think it was called! I was thinking of that too!
or like just one of the earliest fantasy trope, i believe even Gygax used monsters like that but I love the MH reference too
I was thinking about the Poémon that wears its mother‘s skull on its head. But it’s likely a coincidence
@@fuzzypockets But that's not a crab tho
Kinda reminds me of the pokemon Falinks
Boralus has a furniture store (Dock One Exports) and no player housing, those monsters.
10:25 So fun lore fact, there's no buffalo but it could be a yak, there's a bunch of yaks in Pandaria where the Yaungol are and the Tauren are actually evolved from the Yaungol. Some Yaungol got blessed to become the Tauren, some got blessed again to get Moose antlers to become the Highmountain Tauren, and because the Tauren were nomadic for a long time the Taunka were basically just Tauren who got stuck in Northrend when the world split apart.
@@EluneAnzu I love this kind famtasy realism of evolution baked into the game and the lore.
as far as i remember it's actually the other way around, during the shattering when the world split into the continents of today, a bunch of Tauren got stuck on Pandaria, and due to the different climate evolved into the Yaungol. Same with the Tauren in Northrend, got stuck and evolved a different way then the Tauren of Highmountain or Mulgor.
@@Jandiss you don't remember quiet correctly. The Yaungol migrated before the sundering from around-ish central Kalimdor to what would become Pandaria after. There, the Mogu enslaved them and shaped their bodies to their needs. After Lei-Shen got himself blown up in Uldum, the Pandaren Revolution freed the enslaved peoples, including the Yaungol, from which some migrated back towards central Kalimdor and further north.
@@Dreagostini might be a case of outdated lore tbh, it got changed so often that you can never be sure by now. thanks for updating/telling me tho.
@@Jandiss Now with remix all I can say is that the lore is there since MoP. It's part of one of the storiey Lorewalker Cho tells the player charakter. But I don't know if the version you remember from players to fill the puzzle themselves, without the story of Cho, if Blizzard changed the Lore at some point or/and, in combination, if some book contains the now wrong information.
Who's to say.
On the topic of pointless details in the Azure Span, here's something I noticed just recently - as of Dragonflight season 4, you could now see Amirdrassil from inside the Brackenhide Hollow dungeon.
that cockroach powered machine is so cute, I’ve never seen that 😂
I think top ten: tastiest creatures in wow could be pretty funny
That would be funny if the Tauren petroglyphs were a reference to plains running
That’d be fantastic
Funny thing about AQ lookin like a scarab, that place was designed by John Staats, it was the first thing he designed when he got to blizzard & his least favorite instance.
He also designed Wailing Caverns, LBRS, UBRS, BRD, MC, Scholo, Karazhan & Warsong Gulch (which was based off a Quake 2 map he made then ported to Quake 3, before porting it to WoW).
which quake map would that be?
How was it the first thing he designed if he designed dungeons that came out over a year before AQ?
@@user-zg5ew2bm7lblizz will regularly develop content but then hold it back to include in future expansions so they can have more time to develop it or put it somewhere they think it will fit better, especially in the early days. A sizable chunk of BC was sketched out and some even programmed before vanilla even dropped.
@@westoneuler4065Yeah idd was the case a lot of the time back then. I remember when they announced about Wotlk, DKs and Northrend before tbc reached halfway its lifespan, can only imagine how early they started working on it.
I remember some things I've stumbled upon - too many to mention, but the sweetest was by far the "courting couple" in Talador, and saddest maybe was the dead guy on top of a mushroom in Zangarmarsh with a bottle lying next to him...
This is my favorite one of this series. Wouldn't mind a part 2
I have always liked the Tanaris lost caravan, it's really good environmental story-telling. I think it was around pre-Cataclysm too.
It is.
I think that roach-powered table exists in Prof. Putricide's room, too! Very very strange device... lol
Being a huge furbolg fan, it was such fun finding that one hut in Felwood! It sure wasnt there in classic
I never even knew about the Furbolg house with an open door. Thanks Crendor!
Everyone knows you extract energy from cockroaches through gentle petting
I love the old Tanaris footprints video. That was the video that got me back into WoW again.
I don't play a hunter, but I genuinely felt outraged slightly that the crab loses the dragon skull upon taming.
I haven't played since TBC but I love seeing your videos every time. I've thought about going back a few times to see this stuff for myself. I tried once but I didn't want to play the game anymore. Here's a whacky idea. Probably would cause a lot of lag though. They could have a tourist class of character. You couldn't be harmed by anything and you couldn't fight anything except with your bare hands to get through a area or something. It's a cool world that will only be seen by a few, millions yes but still not very many overall.
I did this at the end of TBC. I was max level and went to all the lower level dungeons just to see them. I also did the ambassador title achievement so I had to go to every zone. Other than that I ran people through dungeons or just helped them along the road.
sounds like fun, they should also have some kind of climbing skill to go with it. Instead of mounts, you climb.
TIL the Pier 1 Imports I regularly drive past is actually permanently closed. There's a bunch of these that still exist as buildings near me but when I looked them up on Google maps it indeed says permanently closed. Modern urban development ladies and gentlemen, just buildings that are occupied but not gone or replaced.
Heh, there used to be a bunch of little shops around me that you could walk around and go to but now they're all gone. Empty buildings or classic old brick buildings being torn down to put in new cookie cutter housing developments.
The one near me became two restaurants.
For tanaris you were looking for the phrase “context clues” 🤓
this one was super interesting! i like the more open ended top 10s. would love a part 2 or something in a similar vein
The cockroach-powered alchemy machine actually dates back from at least Cataclysm (I would bet even Wrath, but I'd have to search every Forsaken base to be sure) since there is an identical prop in the advanced Forsaken camp near the damaged Greymane wall
This is probably one of absolute favorite Top 10s! I appreciate this fun series so much and always look forward to it.
Great stuff. The only one I knew about was the mailroom, that’s when I got my Katy Stampwhistle toy.
ANd in Ohnaran plains you can get the Ohuna mail perch as well.. they shasre the same CD however
I noticed that dragonflying and how fast it is makes you miss all those small details!
7:22 i have bad news for you, there was always access to the uppercity, player rogue's would prowl through here looking out for alliance raids, or dropping down onto alliance gankers trying to sneak through undercity. Lots of Forsake buildings have the oppertunity to hide in plain sight as a rogue by perching on upper bits of structure's (hanging lights etc) One of my most favoured passtimes was afk'ing in Brill the first proper Forsaken town and pouncing down on nuaghty alliance trying to gank the new players running around down there.
Another Saturday night treasure! Thanks Crendor! 👍🏼
thanks for putting these vids out Crendor, this was so much fun, i knew 3 or 4 of them. Trying to remember if i did see the tauren rocks!
4:20 I think the most valuable prize you can get from Dalaran's mail room is not the pet, but the toy that calls the gnome assistant! You can get mail anywhere in the world, and a couple other services =)
I haven't logged in to the game in a long time but I probably will today. This list made me miss how big the World is and how great it was to discover new things and places. I haven't played retail in forever, so I'm sure it's full of things to discover.
I'm not 100% sure about #5 (the woman bringing toys to upper floor), but my first thought was that scene in Lord of the Rings, in Prancing Pony in Bree, where Aragorn made fake "dolls" of hobbits out of pillows and put them in bed in >upper floor< of a tavern to deceive ringwraiths, while they themselves hid in the building >across the street
Thank crendor for posting whenever I get off work and eat dinner 🙏🏻
I wouldn't doubt that the Earth Mother changed all the Buffalo in Azeroth into the Tauren. With all the weird stuff that created the other races, it would be the least stretch in the game.
I love the dalaran mailroom + minigame. I got alot of practice for it when I was a kid playing Wind Waker
I like details like these. Thanks !
Nice selection, thx!
One thing I only noticed recently is that Deatholme in the south of the Ghostlands connects to Stratholme at the back of it. Maybe something I should have connected earlier considering the names but oh well
After having a look at some old nostalgic caves around Azeroth over the weekend, a pointless top 10 caves would be awesome!
I doubt it is, but the "weird llama horse thing" made me think of the Tul'vir in Uldum or in Ahn'Qiraj. It's more likely to be a centaur, maybe?
I think the 'buffalo rocks' may have been related to Tauren Druid forms, before the devs decided on bear for tanking and cat for dps. Vanilla came out incomplete, even the cat form quest line didn't make it into it, yet there is a great cat spirit in southern Moonglade. So, maybe the intent early on was to have distinct druid forms for different races (although WC3 established nelf druids, the druids of the claw etc), but it had to be scrapped and merged into basic forms due to time and resource constraints?
I've noticed a lot of these sweet little spots in wow and always wondered why blizzard puts them into the game and never give a clue that they exist. My guess is that's why they were trying to force ground mounts to people, so they could explore the world and notice these things.
I leveling a SSF hardcore character in classic era and since it was gonna go slow either way I figured I'd take my time and explore every zone. I don't recommend doing this on a HC tho, but at least once you should do it, it's worth it.
Now imagine a streamer who is knowledgeable in wow, actually explored everything from Durotar to Dragon Isles, then told a little bit of info about every zone.
This was amazing. Would love a 2nd version of this video idea
Just want to highlight that the cockroach machine is seen first time at Professor putricide's experiment table (placed far right) in icecrown citadel raid 😊
I would call myself pretty attentive in wow, but I didn't know about any of these, thank you!
Great vid! I'm a rare one who actually loved Boralus and BfA in general - try telling me Drustvar isn't the best zone ever lol.
Anyway, I knew about Dock 1 Exports but never noticed the lady with the toys. Also, most people probably saw this from the quest and subsequent daily, but I liked visiting the underground club complete with bouncer and brawling patrons too.
such an amazing idea for a series of videos lol for wow nerds. been watching you since I was 14 crendor. thanks!
#9 unlocked a memory of roleplaying in that very house many, many years ago. I sometimes miss it.
4:01 They look like regular arcane elementals but the pet has a full set of unique (well most of them are shared with three to four other pets, one of which is the unobtainable Plagued Mailemental) pet battle abilities.
Good list!
10. I think I saw that before but already forgot it.
9. One more Reason for Housing!
4. That is cool! And they also look awesome! So sad that they aren't tameable with that,
2. Okay I always thought that were a kind of Street the developers made. Cool Idea!
1. The One you show first was in Classic part of a Quest where you summon a Kodo Ghost. That I still remember. ANd Tauren were, Like Jinyu, Pandaren and other Races Created in the Waters of the Valley of eternal Blossome. Cho has a story about that.
As someone who never played World of Warcraft, yep, these are things that I never noticed.
In old Tanaris, before Cata, there were buildings that had wallpaper with pineapple motifs. Up until then, I hadn't seen a single pineapple in the game.
Another strange fact. Why do the gnome mounts look like an ostrich? There is no such animal in all of Azeroth. Mechanical rams, horses or similar creatures that exist in the starting area of gnomes/dwarves would have made more sense. ^^
They are based on Striders that are ingame, which are basically ostrich (or similarly terror birds), hence why the mounts are called "Mechanostrider".
@@Die__Ene
Yes, I know which creatures you mean. But I think they look a bit different and as far as I know they only exist in Kalimdor.
But sure, that could be an explanation.^^
Crendor is the Brenden Fraser of WoW.
Fulborgs casually keeping beehive in their homes xd
Crendor, this is dangerously close to content.
Oxhorn used those Rocks in his Inventing Swear Words series
I suspect the Tanaris Trail is a reference to Oregon Trail.
Considering we're in Mop Remix now, and given how crazy that expansion is in terms of content, story, lore, references, etc. I can only wonder how many things from Pandaria are right in front of me as I farm stuff and I don't notice them.
The Tanaris-skeletons has been there since classic, right? I seem to remember doing the exact same thing - following the trail and making up my own theory as to what happened. The others on the list I didn't know about.
This was very interesting so I'm not sure if this video even should count as "pointless"
There're the remnants of the little mermaid Ariel and her friends on the Exile's Reach shore, Murloc hideaway on the right side :P but that's more of an easter egg
1:35 Holy crap I didn't know about that one! I really only knew about the one in Grizzly hills, but that's a totally different upgraded model, not the Vanilla one. Wait no, That does look like the exact same interior as the Wrath one, maybe this was added in Cata?
an undead homunculus doesn't sound so hard to make ngl
Still never played wow love the videos I wanna see goblin reviews!!
Furblog sounds like it'd be what a furbolg would call their blog.
4:27 pretty sure I've seen this in ICC standing right to Professor Putricide
Awesome vid 😅😂😊
This was a fun one
bro ive never seen the inside of a vanilla furbolg home, thats sof ucking cool. been playing this game so damn much since i was 5 and never noticed it
whoa....didnt know that. nice
On point
So many interesting things to see in WoW.
Bro I knew about number 2 😂 was for some reason one of my favorite zones first time through
Since it's not turning a wheel or anything they might be *milking* the cockroach. Very important for forsaken alchemy, that cockroach milk.
I'm going to attempt to pretend I didn't read that
I don't know if it was me but I suggested the watering buff drake, yay! He made it! :D
2:09 I mean why not make the _bear_ beastman house with the _grizzly_ hills assets?
Didn't the Tanaris thing have items on the ground which you had to loot for a quest back in the original game? I can't remember exactly because I was around five years old but I do remember following those trails to click on things in the sand for a quest or so I thought...
I highly doubt the temple was actually fully rendered before cataclysm. The devs admitted that they used a ton of sleight of hand style trickery and had to essentially rebuild the continents almost from scratch. That’s why flying restricted zones rarely if ever get flying enabled. That being said genuinely shocked I didn’t already know everything in this list. Turns out there’s always something new to learn.
world wise, tenaris is supposed to be HUGE, like Sahara desert huge. gameplay / technical limitations wise: teeny tiny desert.
I wouldn't call having a beehive right inside such a cramped house "cozy". The bees would just fly around and sting you all the time. Then again, the furbolgs may not care, since their hides are too thick.
Bold of you to assume I notice anything unless its thrown in my face ever
Top 10 wallpapers when (especially goblin buildings)
That was no proto-tauren, it was the first plainsrunner tauren, after blizz removed it from the game they made those murals to honor the fallen and forgotten 😂
Crendor sent me from Twitch
There was a power for Tauren that was similar to Worgens run wild that i believe was scrapped for making mounts bigger for Tauren that might explain the 4 legged ‘buffalo’ imagery
Plainswalking
@@KingLich451 yeeesssss that!
I infact didn't notice any of these. At least not in total. I was aware of the tracks in Tanaris, but not how they all tie together.
The furbolg houses were in warcraft 3.
What are the pointless top 10 profession recipes?
Dig Rat Stew would be one 😂
i mean the bruffalon exist now, so i guess the rocks could be depicting a sub species of them??? that’s my best guess lol
Mind = blown🤯🤯
crendor sent me from twitch
U miss Nagrand wierd place. above throne of Elements is a place with troll and lot of kids. also, lot of little skeletons and soup :3
go check it
A few more that could have been on this list, in the starting zone if you go kind of de-bound into the water there are some things that no one would ever find outside of people just exploring and it's pretty far out there. There is this mountain somewhere that has just a bunch of Critters fighting for some reason, they all have armor if I remember correctly too. Might be just be a bunch of squirrels or something I don't remember exactly but it was pretty cool to see. And then finally there's that red dragon sleeping in a cave and no one knows why.
I actually covered the critters in top 10 odd things in wow! th-cam.com/video/RYa0GcQgvrI/w-d-xo.html
yeah taht plateau NW of THunder BLuff was a WONDERFUL kooky suprise for those first flying around
I called them furblogs too! Honestly sounds better for some reason
so glad im not the only one who called them furblogs 😂
Cockroached powered machine i believe is in ICC on professor putricid boss room.
