Q u o t e:
With the pending release of patch to take us into WotLK, it was clearly noted that Naxxramas (within the Eastern Plaguelands) would not longer exist as of the patch release.

However, we have some old legacy runs going through Naxxramas now for people to experience it, for completionist collectors to fill out their T3 gear sets, to finish their Atiesh legendary staff, etc.

My question is: with the removal of Naxxramas from the Eastern Plaguelands in this upcoming patch (before the WotLK expansion), what will happen to the Atiesh questline? I'm at the stage where I've just completed my staff and have gotten the staff's headpiece from Kel'Thuzad, though I haven't gone into AQ40 to get the staff's base from C'Thun yet. Not to mention the follow-up quest to purge evil taint from the completed staff in Stratholme once I obtain the base. However, because Naxx and the Atiesh staff are so tightly linked, even with these last 2 steps I have, if the questline is removed along with the instance I will not be able to complete even though I have no more need of entering Naxx for the questline.

We definitely want a clear answer on this so we can plan fun legacy runs accordingly before the patch release if the questline will be likewise remove with Naxxramas.

Thanks,
...Fair
