Lower City

The Lower City is the gathering place for many of the refugees who fled from the war, including Arakkoa, Sporelings, and almost every other Outland race.

The Lower City of Shattrath is the place where the refugees gather and help out in their own ways. When someone helps any of the mixture of races who fled from war, word gets around quickly. Their quartermaster, Nakodu, is located at the market in the Lower City. The Lower City of Shattrath also contains a very useful Mana Loom or an Alchemy Lab. Many NPCs have extensive knowledge of crafting. The Battlemasters for both sides of all four battlegrounds can also be found here, as well as the World's End Tavern.

It also has a large number of useful NPCs and items:
 * Battlemasters for all four Battlegrounds, and an Arena battlemaster, for both Horde and Alliance.
 * A Mana Loom, which was required by tailors to create prior to patch 3.0.2.
 * Master trainers for nearly every profession, including Cooking, Leatherworking, Skinning, and Alchemy.
 * An Alchemy Lab next to the Alchemy trainer, who also gives the specialization quest for alchemists. Warlocks should note that this lab CANNOT be used instead of the one in Scholomance for the Dreadsteed quest.
 * Three tailors who allow you learn tailoring specializations, and buy new epic tailoring recipes for armor sets and special bags [including 20 slot bags].
 * Spellfire Tailoring — Patterns for the Wrath of Spellfire set
 * Primal Mooncloth Tailoring — Patterns for the Primal Mooncloth Set
 * Frozen Shadoweave Tailoring — Patterns for the Shadow's Embrace set

Trivia

 * Griftah, a vendor in Lower City, sells amulets which are very... interesting. He is quite the salesman, with items like Marvelous Madstone of Immortality, which allows you to return to life as long as you return to the place you died. Buyer beware!
 * At exalted you can purchase a Lower City Tabard. Strangely, none of the NPCs in Lower City can be seen wearing one.
