Twilight Highlands - Music & Ambience | World of Warcraft Cataclysm

- The Twilight Highlands (formerly just the Highlands) are found in northeastern Khaz Modan, east of the Wetlands. It is the location of the ancient dwarven fortress, Grim Batol, and also houses a majority of Twilight's Hammer settlements, working with Deathwing and his Black Dragonflight. There is a small Red Dragonflight presence. The story of the Twilight Dragonflight unfolds in this zone.
The highlands have undergone constant upheaval throughout their history, with races and factions thriving, collapsing, and changing seemingly without pause. The fortress-city of Grim Batol has played host to no fewer than three potent factions: the Wildhammer dwarves, who abandoned their home after a Dark Iron curse left it uninhabitable; the Red Dragonflight, which was forced to fight for the Horde in the captivity of the Dragonmaw orcs during the Second War; and, of course, the Dragonmaw themselves, who were driven from Grim Batol when the Red Dragonflight was finally freed from their grasp.
The Twilight Citadel holds the entrance to the Bastion of Twilight, the Twilight's Hammer's stronghold.
The Dragonmaw now clings to the edges of the highlands. They're no less wild and difficult to deal with than when they ruled Grim Batol, but their knowledge of dragons and warfare is of unquestionable importance, especially amidst the chaos of the Cataclysm. The Wildhammer dwarves dwell in forested outposts among the highlands' mountains; though long friendly with the Alliance, they have only now begun to consider casting their lot in with Stormwind and Ironforge thanks to the entreaties of their cousins, the Bronzebeard clan. Even the mighty Red Dragonflight has suffered greatly in recent months: its members have been decimated by a frenzied, newly aggressive Black Dragonflight attacking relentlessly from the petrified Obsidian Forest.

I'm back from the holidays. I can't say I had a good time because I was helping my mother to renovate the house. _Maybe_ the next one will be about resting :)
Regarding this video, well... I did it because I almost forgot everything about Twilight Highlands, except the Grim Batol story. I recommend you to visit Thundermar and Kirthaven, some warm Wildhammer dwarves places. And the lore is actually impressive. I'll let you say first something about the music here.
Do you like this video? Give it a like, listen to more (playlist links bellow), subscribe. Do you want to support my work? Details in the video description.

keep up the magnificent work!
You are very helpful family member! I’m an electrician and I always help my family with fixing their electrical problems haha
Thanks for the upload 👍🏼
were you listening to some wow music and ambience while helping your mom haha
Always a pleasure to see and hear your vids. Keep it going bro. FOR AZEROTH!!!!
It's hard to believe wow has been released for 20 years already.
What a treat, I loved questing here. My dad and I had a lot of adventures here. Thanks for bringing those adventures back Meisio :) /Salute
I am glad you enjoyed it. It sounds you had a lot of fun in Cata :)
/bow
Lovely zone. I spent so much time here on horde toons farming Twilight Jasmine, wishing I could go into the beautiful dwarven cities without getting attacked.
@@jayh2571 yes, same! So many hours farming in cata. I always went to Vashj’ir for obsidium ore because it was usually deserted. Loved that zone too. The naga were good for cloth too. Fun times.
I think it's the least play expansion for me - so not so much farming for me. (It's because I hated the Cata changes to the old world. The new zones were fun though.)
my blue thumb up is number 185, there are 3620 seconds of good moments in this video, and the colors of the landscape plus sky reach are fantastic.
spoiler alert this video is a master piece.
Thank you Gabriel.
Ya know what’s sad. I truly miss vanilla wow around 2004-2006 then other expaxs 2008-2010 then 2012-2014. It got me through a lot of bad times. I miss the music it is very comforting. I miss my friends around that time and I wish we could go back to that time when we all had time to play together and we’re not so caught up in real world issues….I miss wow… oh blizzard how you have changed……
Its Not Blizzard anymore
I dunno how I never replied to this (maybe because I've tackled/analyzed that topic before several times in Meisio vids or elsewhere).
Well. I feel it...
I hope we/you'll be able to fully focus on the things you (we) truly enjoy, again, soon, somehow.
I didn't appreciate this zone enough during Cata but now I love it
Don't play wow anymore, but bringing cho-gall back as enemy with the twilight hammer clan and playable ogres. Man I would be so in.
15:40 whenever we were in Stonecore and very *very* timely killed the last boss at this right exact moment of the soundtrack, her final voiceline that goes "for my death, countless more will fall. The burden... is now yours to.. bear" it, always sounded so perfectly dramatic like a movie scene ^^ i loved cataclysm quite a lot.
(same with the second boss of the blackrock dungeon when she says. "all part of the master's plan, your death is, inevitable."
Damn dude PvE in Cataclysm was insanely fun at least for me as a fire mage main
Boiii also benedictus in Dragon Soul "i looked into the eyes of the Dragon, and despaired..!"
i remember every voiceline from cataclysm aaaa
I love this zone, it's so cool!
Great memories! Thank you for this. I remember leveling up here during Cataclysm launch and I was inside the mine in the north..? part of the highlands when Deathwing decided to gift the zone with his breath. Got my 'Stood in the Fire' achievement that day.. I believe I was level 84 and a few bars away from 85 haha. Good times.
Another excellent video, thank you Meisio!
My pleasure! I am glad you like it Meeko
/hug
Finally! I waited a long time for a long Highlands Track, only found short tracks. Thank you!
Wow I totally forgot about this zone! Some really great music here, ty for the upload 🙂
Thanks for making this, this zone is super underrated!
Yea
The base looks so cozy and the rest so depressing that you kinda wanna just stay put lol.
THANKS! My favorite zone (it may be weird but I think Twilight Highlands were awesome)
Na, its still one of the best Zones, since it ties in so well with the rest of the expansion. Later Xpansions loose that feeling of progress while leveling, that was present till MoP. You really start following a questline when you enter the expansion, to stop Deathwing and his force of Elementals and then you constantly fight against the Twilight Hammer and their bad influence on Nature in various different locations, that all tie a theme (Fire, wind, Earth and Water) until you finally fight the Hammer on his home turf in the Twilight Highlands. People always trash on Cata, and i dont really know why. It was a good expansion, ist just ended on a bad note it did not deserve. I really believe Blizzard thought Dragon Soul would be received better, but in some way it was a let down and the recycling of like 90% visuals from WOTLK was only a part of the problem, not really fighting Deathwing another one. Cata deserved a remarkable endboss like Ragnaros, Illidan, Kiljaeden or Lichking, but it got 3 pure Add fights back2back, yeah, all different from another, but what were they thinking?
I know that you are in a bit darker place now, and I honestly wish that I could help You in any actual way. I'm really-really grateful to You for You bringing these videos for us, and I'm still enjoy and love all of them. Cataclysm was one of my favorites regarding the music, and even if the Twilight Highlands isn't the nicest and happiest place ever, You were able to make a really awesome video about it. You -as usual- really gave justice to the zone. Thank you very much for your work and efforts! We are all here to support You! You just need to say half a word for me to jump to help You in anything, I could possibly can.
What do you mean he is a dark place?
He is struggling a bit with a couple of things in his life. It's not that easy now for him. This leaves a mark on him.
@@balogh89 Sorry to hear that:((
@@balogh89 how I wish we could truly help each other, but, it's not simple :/
I had seen a comment of his that sounded dark to me but that's it, wouldn't guess much more. Hopefully the future doesn't hold only bad stuff tho...
Thank you for the kind words guys.
I feel that I can't share all my sorrow with everyone, because I want people coming to the channel to have a good time and because I can fill everyone with the stress and drama in my life.
The show must go on.
The Twilight Highlands, a zone with an unique mix of The Shire from LOTR combined with eldritch corruption, which gives quite a peculiar flavor to it.
Despite having strong lore on paper, and being the max level zone of its expansion, I feel most players forgets the place exists, and the interesting plotlines happening there were never used to their full potential. Grim Batol was criminally underused as a mere dungeon, The Twilight's Hammer was a joke compared to the Scourge or the Burning Legion and the Old Gods and Twilight Dragons implications went nowhere until BFA, which is another can of worms.
But still, the intrigue of the zone cannot be denied, and I think this is another one that would have benefited greatly from having the current treatment of WoW's Zones. Say what you will about retail, but it's undeniable that today's zones are much better handled, managing to stay relevant the whole expansion, and even after it.
Such a big comment hehe, but it is a huge trip down to memory lane! Thank you for your video Meisio, incredible as always!
Word! Everything on point!
Thank you for sharing! :)
No retail is boring and the zones only Look and Sound Good. No one with the slightest amount of Sense would tolerate the greedy gameplay that draws you deeper into the devils Circle of Bad and costy Entertainment
fantastic content as always meisio!
Appreciate it Nic!
/cheer
A other good vidoe dude keep it up you rock
damn, the 24:22 mark song is always so epic. reminds me of the Terminator 2 theme.
I hit lvl 85 here, back when WoW was still on top of MMORPG.. Off to Pandaria..
So many memories.... so awesome!. Thanks for the upload Meiso. Keep up the good work. Woot woot! \(^o^)/
Thx 😉
You're welcome 😊
Hey, I was wondering how you record these if Free Far Sight has not been updated since Legion Beta?
