WoW so followed EQ

[Polyphemous]

Some of the people that created WoW were in a top EQ raid guild, so it is not that surprising.

I never really thought of Kunark as a desert expansion though, seemed like more jungles/ forests than anything.

You referring to Furor and Fires of Heaven? Because they had nothing to do with creating WoW, other than playtesting and feedback. If you're referring to others of whom I'm unaware, apologies.

This isn't true at all. Furor from FoH is the only one that is a dev there, and he mainly did raid development.

Ariel - guild leader of legacy of steel was something important above Tigole

Tigole - the next guild leader of legacy of steel was lead quest designer and eventual lead game designer

ariel brought tigole/furor into blizzard, theres like 40 references to Furor/Alex Afrasiabi in WoW

atleast one or two more LoS was involved with WoW. Half of Westfall NPC'd are refernces to LoS. legend of captian graayson...guard galiaan etc etc

...and let me say that anyone who was an asshat in a game and then references that asshattery in the game they then designed as if it were something to be proud of ... has baked their asshat status into bedrock. Creating an ability in WoW and calling it Furor may just be the biggest act of geek wankery ever.
