#TIMELIME OF AZEROTH HOW TO#
Year -11: Medivh wakes up and begins researching how to bring the orcs to Azeroth while assuring everyone he is fine (TLG). Year -31: Medivh goes into a coma and kills his father Nielas Aran (TLG). Year -45: Medivh is born (The Last Guardian). We know Medivh is 45 when he opens the Dark Portal). Medivh went into a coma on his 14th birthday, so Medivh could have been no older than 13 during the stories. Year -50: Anduin Lothar is born (Speculation - he was the oldest of Anduin, Llane, and Medivh and claimed to be "about Khadgar's age" when telling the story of their adventures in Stranglethorn Vale. It is flatly stated as 13 in both The Shattering (Pg. The year is once again confirmed as 12 in WOTLK during the novel Stormrage when he is stated to not quite be 13 yet. Going by his age at the start of Vanilla, He was 10.Įradicate the Burning Legion, a quest ended by Nazgrel in Outland, claims 5 years have passed since Hyjal, which backs up the claim of Vanilla only being 1 year and as such making Anduin 11 at the time. This is proven by using Anduin Wrynn as a guide.Īnduin is a lifesaver for keeping track of the years of WoW. Berenal explained it in his post:Īnduin as a World of Warcraft Year guide:Ĭontrary to popular opinion, The Timeskip between WotLK and Cata was not five years or any large margin of years, rather several months. Note: In addition to not really providing any details with what happened each year (other than names of books or games), I don't agree with the unofficial timeline mostly in the time that it claims passed between WoW expansions. I haven't found there to be any glaring holes or conundrums with this version, but I'd like to hear other people's feedback to see if I overlooked anything, and also to provide a usable version of a timeline for people to use. This doesn't include all events, nor is it exact (although it is roughly correct, and at the very least, in the correct chronological order). For my own purposes, I've arrived at this timeline as a usable one for story purposes.
The framework was gathered partially from these unofficial timelines, the old official timeline from the Blizzard website in 2007, and this timeline based off of the births of Arthas Menethil and Anduin Wrynn made by Berenal of Moon Guard (US). While I don't agree with the unofficial compilation timeline on Wowpedia/Wowwiki, I believe most of the year spacing to be correct. With many years of frustration trying to find a complete timeline of events in the Warcraft universe, I finally decided to go out and gather as much knowledge on it as I could myself.
