I got disconnected while flying from rachet to desolace & when I logged back in I was on top of a building (looks like something naga-themed). I ran around & I could look down on both mulgore & desolace. there are no NPCs & a huge area that is wide open. When I finally jumped into it & died, it had me res in westfall. Anyone know what this open are is?
I’ve noticed there is a whole area in the mountains that you see from the flying mount while traveling into Desolace. These tend to be incomplete, only filled in enough for what those flying past are likely to see.
(The dying and winding up in Westfall is because where you were doesn’t register as being on the known world map, and Westfall graveyard is the de facto fallback for Alliance.)
I took a bunch of screenshots, I tried to find if anyone else had been there but found nothing.
I got feared through the Dire Maul entrance the other day and fell into the terrain underneath the instance. I was able to explore huge swathes of the mountains between Feralas, Desolace and Mulgore. Really cool. I have a bunch of screenshots.
Since then it has happened several more times. If you can get a friend to fear you through dungeon portals they are a lot more lenient about letting you explore and not get zoned in to the dungeon than they were in vanilla.
I’ve blinked through the portal on my mage.
I’ve heard of other people getting into cool places after being disconnected on a fp, wonder how consistent that is. Like does it always drop you before your destination if you disconnect part way though.
This brought back memories, like getting into AQ, and Hyjal, before they were released.
I tried the other night and you can still get into Hyjal!
(I should have recorded the jump to get up but I didn’t think to record till I was up already.)
