As much as I love Shadowmoon Valley (and it’s a lot) I often wish I could move my garrison. There’s something about the idea of planting it in Talador and making a bold statement about retaking Shattrath from the Iron Horde that just appeals to me – I know SMV and Frostfire are were we first arrived, but considering there was at least one other failed garrison (the Spires of Arak saw Admiral Taylor start one) I feel like we could be a bit more flexible about where we put the things.
If I were playing Horde I’d love to put my garrison in Gorgrond. Gorgrond just feels like a Horde zone to me – all that giant primal monster battling, I guess.
So where would you put your garrison, if you could put it anywhere? I often dream of relocating it to Winterspring once this expansion is over.

I’m a Druid, I can change into a bird, but the model doesn’t look like a roadrunner or ostrich to me… I’d put my garrison in any zone that allows flight.
It is full of Shadow Council now.Onto the question proper. I would also like to move the Garrison to Talador, but for much more practical reasons. The central aspect of the region makes it the best for movement.For instance, I have my normal Hearthstone set to the Spire of Light so I can use Aviana’s Feather from there to other parts of Draenor.
Hillsbrad. It shall be called New Southshore aka “Suckithordeopolis”.
For my Draenei Shaman I would’ve still put it in Shadowmoon.
For the Horde I’d probably move to Gorgrond or Spires of Arakk, I still dislike the cold snowy place its in right now for my Troll rogue, I would prefer somewhere warmer at least.
I would plant mine just outside Grim Batol in order to take the city back. Being a dwarf and all… Or perhaps grizzly hills, love that place.
First off, I wish we could make the buildings a little closer to our various races. I’d love a night elf theme or a pandaren theme (I never got sick of Pandaria).
Druid: Ashenvale. Perfect setup for taking the forest back from the Horde.
Paladin: Just further down the road to set up a solid border between Talador and Shadowmoon Valley.
Monk: Tough choice and I can’t think of anywhere I’d want it.
Rogue: Howling Fjord. No reason in particular, I just really love that zone.
I would build mine in feralas just north of feathermoon stronghold in the bay. That way im where im required for night elf interests, im backing up shandris feathermoon and im also close to the dark portal for me and my followers todo missions.
I’d take over Broken Horn Village. I main a troll, and despite the Laughing Skull being an Orcish clan their aesthetic is so very trollish. With the position next to the Everbloom and The Pit and easy access to the sea and all the lumber I can eat? Sign me up.
I would put it in Frostfire, the snow and black rocks…it appeals to me for some reason. I like the forest, but…the desolate tundra just speaks to me better. From a character stand point it suits my hunter, she’d rather be on her own away from people, though I don’t rp with her. Some of the flat areas makes me like that you can see for miles at a time. The rocks and trees of SMV could hide too many things, but snow…snow is hard to hide in. I can’t wait for flying, FF will be the place I lurk the most, so many remote mountains to sit on and watch the sky.
