World of Warcraft Atlas

A new feature, called Atlas, added this week by Blizzard at www.worldofwarcraft.com/info/flashmap/ . It is an “out-game” resource to help you navigate the many locations and regions of Outlands and Azeroth using flash technology. It comes with two display modes:

  1. Detailed Region Info: See all the regions of Azeroth and Outland by clicking the minimap on the upper left. Each region is marked with cities, towns, dungeons, and other points of interest. Clicking on each marker displays additional information — for example, clicking on a town shows you what resources are available there, such as trainers, flightmasters, and repair merchants. Detailed capital city maps are also available from each continent’s drop-down menu.
  2. Customized Region Info: Clicking on the Customized Region Info tabs displays an overlay on the world map highlighting only the particular type of information you select. For example, clicking on the Transportation tab brings up all the flight paths and boat/zeppelin stops in the world, and the Region Levels filter displays the appropriate level range for all regions in the world.

Unfortunately the application is too large for a screenshot. It surely worths a visit.
