Two more scenarios were added in beta in this recent patch:
Greenstone Village
and
Arena of Annihilation
. We've got writeups and screenshots of them, as well as videos by Lore! Sceanarios also now have quests implemented, as well as reward satchels that yield ilvl 463 blues:
Cache of Powerful Armor
.
Greenstone Village
Greenstone Village
Greenstone village has been taken over by Jade Elementals and you will have to restore peace to the village by fending off the attacks, rescuing villages, finding their kegs, and killing vengeful sprites.
Summary
Stage 1: Rescue the Villagers:
Woodcarver Liupo
and
La
Mayor Lin
Meila
Portly Shung
Scribe Rinji
Graceful Swan
The village has been invaded by Cursed Jade Elementals and Sassy Seedlings. The group will need to clear the town and speak to the frightened NPCs.
Stage 2: Rescue the Dojo
Beasts of Jade spawn inside the Dojo and you need to help the Brewmaster kill them.
Stage 3: Recover Burgled Barrels
This stage is pretty fun. While clearing the countryside of more elementals, you'll come across burgled barrels that you can mount and roll back to the dojo.
Stage 4: Rescue Greenstone Masons
: Kiri Jade-Eyes, Barrel-Chest Huo, Stonecutter Lon
Similar to the first part, but in a new area of town with more elementals that summon tons of little adds. However, you have the new ability
Volatile Greenstone Brew
that helps take care of AoE.
Final Stage: Kill Vengeful Hui
One of the elemental spirits has turned corrupted and needs to be put out of its misery.
Achievements
Greenstone Village
: Defeat Vengeful Hui in the Greenstone Village scenario.
Save it for Later
: Complete the Greenstone Village scenario without using any Volatile Greenstone Brew.
Screenshots
Read about the Arena of Annihilation scenario after the break!
Arena of Annihilation
Arena of Annihilation
Ring of Blood is back yet again, with a new round of Pandaren foes. It's a bit straightforward compared to the other scenarios, so maybe this scenario will get a revision in the future.
Summary
Clicking on the gong each time summons the next boss. So far, the bosses seem a bit easier than their previous counterparts.
Stage 1:
Scar-Shell <Mighty Dragon Turtle>
Stage 2:
Jol'Grum
, a Pandaren Yeti
Stage 3:
Little Liuyang
, a fire sprite
Stage 4:
Chagan Firehoof <Wandering Warrior>
Final Stage: One of three possible bosses: Cloudbender Kobo, Maki Waterblade, Satay Byu
Achievements
Beat the Heat

In the Eye of the Tiger
: Defeat all final bosses - Cloudbender Kobo, Maki Waterblade, and Satay Byu - in the Arena of Annihilation scenario.

So what is this basically? Blizzards attempt at dynamic content?
They are not dynamic content at all. They are more like running normal dungeons the very first time when you get the auto-quest popups. They also don´t require a tank and only require 3 people.
Or if you want to look at it from the other perspective, they are exactly like group quests used to be in vanilla, except they are instanced and you can queue for them like a dungeon.
So they're repeatable then?

Well it is a scenario, so for now, I guess yes.

Arena of annhilation is just like the one in Tanaris, right?
More like the Ring of Blood, Amphitheater of Anguish and Crucible of Carnage.
They're all similar.
Which is the one in either Northrend or Outland?
