'''Harrogath''' is the town area of Act Five in [[Diablo II: Lord of Destruction]]. Harrogath can only be entered by players who install the Diablo II expansion pack, and it is accessed through a red portal opened by [[Tyrael]], after a character defeats [[Diablo]] himself in Act Four.

Harrogath is a city in the frozen north, situated on the slopes of [[Mount arreat|Mt. Arreat]]. It is located in the [[Barbarian]] lands, and all of the [[NPC]]s are Barbarians of one type or another, though they are hospitable to characters of other [[class]]es as well, once they've proved their worth.

		+	It has been confirmed [http://www.diii.net/blog/comments/the-return-of-harrogath/] that Harrogath was destroyed when the Worldstone blew up, an event shown in the final cinematic of D2X. The fates of the citizens in the town are unknown, other than that of [[Deckard Cain]] and the Barbarian, who both survived to reappear in D3.

+One confusing aspect of the destruction of Harrogath [http://www.diii.net/blog/comments/the-return-of-harrogath/], is that even though it was apparently destroyed by the explosion of Worldstone, caused by Tyrael's hurling of his sword into the stone as seen in the final D2X cinematic, it's possible to speak with the NPCs in town, in D2X, after killing Baal. And none of them have any worries about the town being destroyed.
 ::''"You have done the impossible, hero. Your defeat of the last of the three prime evils is a great victory for the light. Strange that you say the Worldstone must be destroyed. The prophecy said nothing about that. Perhaps all we have fought for will be lost. Or, perhaps, we will never need fight again."'' - {{iw|Anya Anya}}, Diablo 2x final speech

 This is at the heart of the controversy about [[Tyrael]]. In any case, no-one seems to be evacuating the city, so we can only assume that no-one knew it would explode. On the other hand, we know of at least two survivors of the destruction of the city - the Barbarian, and [[Deckard_Cain|Cain]], so maybe the mountain exploded in parts, and the residents had time to evacuate through a portal or [[waypoint]].
