Gates of Orgrimmar
The Gates of Orgrimmar (or Orgrimmar Main Gate)[1] is quite simply the main gateway into Orgrimmar. The area leads from the Dranosh'ar Blockade in Durotar to the Valley of Strength.
During the Siege of Orgrimmar one Blind Blademaster can be found guarding the tunnel, while Aysa Cloudsinger sneaks around behind him towards the Valley of Strength.
Following the Battle for Lordaeron, a sizable group of Forsaken refugees set up a camp on the upper portion of the Gates.
With patch 8.1.5, a new room known as the Pathfinder's Den was added to the gates housing all the portals to various parts of the world that had previously been scattered throughout Orgrimmar.
Sylvanas Windrunner-loyal Horde warriors gathered on the gate when Varok Saurfang, his rebels, and the Alliance, arrived at Dranosh'ar Blockade to breach them. They observed the mak'gora duel between Varok and Sylvanas. After the Banshee Queen killed the High Overlord and fled, the Forsaken banner-carriers stomped their banners in unison and respect as Thrall, Zekhan, and King Anduin Wrynn brought the body inside.[2]
