Just did Hell's Precipice last night for the 3rd time and noticed the Lich King chanting in what seems to be a reversed (or backmasked) sound clip just at the end of the 1st cutscene when he's summoning more titans. If anyone has the time or resources to do it I'd really like to find out what was in that clip. Probably need some external recording source then some software to reverse the soundclip.

In Sorrow's Furnace one of the Dredge slaves who's just walking around wonders whether female Dwarves have beards too. Lord of the Rings reference.

In another place a Dredge slave is saying "The Dredge united, will never be defeated". A play on the popular protest slogan (the people united, will never be defeated) which fits with the theme of the Dredge trying to fight for their freedom from the Stone Summit.

Possibly a reference to the band "Earth, Wind & Fire"; which would sync with the pre-searing hunters' blood, sweat, tears, as the band "Blood, Sweat & Tears" is from the same era.

"I Will Avenge You!" is a line said by Khan in Star Trek 2. "Fear me!" tickles the memory, but I can't think of what that is from ATM.

Ok people, besides maybe the band ones, those are not fricken references to ANYTHING. If you either see victory in sight or you win a battle what's a logical thing to say? "Victory is mine!" You want to avenge a fallen ally you say? "I Will Avenge You!" , yeah that seems about right. They're not references, just typical phrases you hear in the middle ages or a setting like it(just like tyria).

Don't know if anyone posted this, but during Halloween, during Mad King says, after the /goteam emote, the Mad King said "Smells like team spirit!", an obvious Nirvana reference.

The Mad King's Guards during the Halloween event could be added to your party and went out adventuring with you

This might be old, but there's a collector in Kryta named Isabeaux Navarre who might be a reference to the classic fantasy movie Ladyhawke. It was one of Michelle Pfeiffer's early roles and she played the heroine who was named Isabeaux and her knight, most likely later her husband, was Captain Navarre.

I don't know if this is still true (been a while since I've been in pre) but if you go to the very top of the stairs in ascalon behind the NPC who gives you the poison devourer quest you will see the kings name show through the wall. Now if you turn to your right and run to that wall you will see the kings name show again. Meaning there are two kings in pre. Once again I'm not sure if he's still there and I unfortunately do not have a screenshot but if any of you have pre characters I suggest checking it out
