It was the first instance available for play of the Wrath of the Lich King expansion, being the only instance available for play at Blizzcon 2007 and the Leipzig Games Convention.

On heroic, it awards a total of approximately 2000 reputation with the Horde or Alliance Expedition, assuming you are not wearing a tabard to champion for another faction.
