Right, since I'm not defrosting my account until Thursday, I'm wondering if there's anything more to it than the brief dialogues and the orc battle?
I'm also wondering what this Battle of the Undercity stuff is all about. Please, no spoilers :0 But does everything concerning that start in Northrend and/or >lv 70?
The quest starts at 74 i believe, and its soloable, its done after something happens in Dragonblight, other than that you have to find out for yourself (not giving spoilers, but I know what happens)

The harbour event is over on my realm now. Not sure if it is repeatable or not.
Fixed: it's repeatable with a 12 minute break or so :)

This is what happens when QQers get their way.
Blizz softened it down, so that the sad little questers wouldn't complain that the quest givers were always dead, or calling other players "Griefers"
It was an awesome sight to see though, when I first encountered it. I was going to do my daily pvp in bgs, in SW, when I noticed the King was missing from the throne. So I thought that was an indication that something big was going to happen after Tuesday.
About 5 minutes later someone in Trade chat started screaming about Frost Dragons and Abominations attacking the Harbor.
I thought it was just some punk making up another rumor so that every person in SW would gather in the harbor for nothing. But I decided to investigate it anyways.
Low and behold, the kid was right.
Here's some video I took of it... turn down your volume on this one.. I don't know why it was so damn high , when I was playing it wasn't that high.

I hate to tell you, but they already planned to launch a next stage after the last one. This was obviously a pre-planned thing, it had nothing to do with griefers or quest NPC's dying, and frankly, the only one I've heard QQing is you.
It's 3 days to the expansion, something big had to happen besides some undead having their way in some off-key zones around Azeroth.
This is what's going to get our butts to Northrend. The Lich King attacks and retreats, and tells all to come to Northrend.

As a player I feel left out on phase 8. Even if we wouldn't be online it would still keep on repeating without any form of player interaction at all.
Talking to NPCs doesn't give anything valuable either. No reputation gained with a faction or little quests that would make you feel like you were at least contributing in what was taking place in front of our eyes.
I could just as well just watch this event on youtube.
Even a cinematic would have been preferred really. Then it wouldn't be like a fake illusion of interaction. Sure you can attack the abominations and the frost wyrms but there is in fact absolutely No reason to do so.
I have liked the scourge invasion so far and it has in fact got better for each phase that went by; except for the current phase 8, which we are in right now.
Would it have been so hard for Blizz to make some small reputation gain quests or something like that? "Help defend the city by killing 20 Towering Horrors." -- Why not?
I really don't think that Blizzard thought this one through.
If there is going to be another phase before WotLK launches then I really hope that we as players are able to actually interact and have some impact, however insignificant that it might be, on it all.
Oh well, it's 28 hours left to WotLK as I write this, so maybe we shouldn't care that much about it.
