Destination Arcterra! (Drop 7)

Here are some features coming in Drop 7 for Wildstar outside of the Black Hole House, the costumes and flare. While this drop will not feature the new Redmoon Raid, note that the Redmoon Raid will be on PTR once Drop 7 takes place. So likely we are looking at Redmoon for Drop 8. This drop will likely coincide with Wildstar becoming available on Steam!

It a frozen wasteland of mysterious ruins, dangerous creatures and acneint technology showcasing non-other than the mysterious O-S 1, e.g. the Osun. What mysterious lie there?
