Curse

From here: http://www.guildwars.com/gameinfo/lo...wsfurnace.html

On the eastern slopes of Lornar's Pass, north of Camp Rankor rests the deep, slag-strewn expanse of Grenth's Footprint. Once a sacred place for the dwarves of Deldrimor, the peak itself has been completely dismantled, and the land torn open to get at the precious metals beneath the soil. The Stone Summit have dug deep into the Shiverpeak Mountains. Underneath the stripped, barren land, are the all-but-depleted mining shafts of Sorrow's Furnace.

On the heel of Grenth's Footprint lies the gate into Sorrow's Furnace—only the boldest and bravest dare enter.

The Stone Summit have mined this area until the ground itself has caved in, draining it completely, leaving only their tattered scaffolding behind.

Near the surface, where the ceiling has been breached, the snowy Shiverpeak drifts seep in, as if trying to quell the fires that burn deep inside.

The fiery heart of Sorrow's Furnace is home to some of Tyria's most fearsome creatures.

Has anyone got an incling as to where exactly the portal would be to get to Grenth's Footprint? Seen anything on the eastern side of Lornar's that could be made into an entrance?

I hope they'll make a teleporter there out of that Glint thing they put in Droknar, because it's quite a treck from Camp Rankor up to Lornar's Pass if you want a party of 8. They did say 'easily accessible' too... I don't consider that easy :O

I think that in either of the places highlighted in red in the below picture will be the location of the place, not so sure about enterance though.

In my opinion a place that looks rather suspicious is, once you leave iron mines of moladune, continue south and west you will see a dead end with what looks like the furnace on home alone, where the kid is scared to death of this furnace that looks like its gonna eat him... almost identical to that... not hard to find, youll pass some arcanists and there is usually a boss where it is found

They didn't say it would be easy to get to, they said it would be easy to get into, so maybe you will have to trek through Snake Run and up into Lornar's to get to the entrance, but there will probably be an outpost there so that you only have to get there once...

Yeah I hope they put up a new outpost someplace, but I doubt it.

Well, at least that gives everyone a chance to get some nice morale boost before entering the footprint...
