What is Prop Hunt in WoW

If you’re new to Prop Hunt in WoW and not sure how it works, here’s a quick explanation. In short, it’s a game mode with two sides: 5 props and 5 seekers (sometimes called hunters). The seekers’ goal is to find and eliminate all prop players, while props aim to stay hidden for a set amount of time.
Props can choose an item, in WoW case, it will likely be a Decor object, and blend into the environment by pretending to be part of the scene. To keep things challenging, props occasionally make sounds, giving seekers clues to their location.
Prop Hunt in WoW will take place across 3 confirmed locations. Silvermoon City, Razorwind Shores and Founder’s Point.
Note
You might find this term familiar and you’d be right. The mode originally comes from Garry’s Mod and then was implemented to multiple games.
