Just out of curiosity i wandered over to Alcaz today, thinking maybe I could look around now that I should be able to avoid aggro from all the 110 elites.
…halfway up the beach I suddenly run into some kind of invisible mine that pops me for almost 90% of my health.
“Okay, I’ll be more observant”, I think and heal up then proceed more slowly, looking carefully for any triggers.
Out of nowhere, another explosion for 90% health… no trigger seen, no mine seen, appears randomly placed. Okay, enough of that… I gave up and went elsewhere.
Is this something that is intended to keep 120s off this place? Those bombs would obliterate a 110 if they did 150k damage to them…
Huh, shows how long it’s been since I’ve been there. Can hunters detect these things? It would suck if you just randomly died to an invisible mine while trying to fight an island full of elite enemies.
I remember messing around there on my demon hunter. I believe they can spot the mines with their vision spell that lets them see stealth objects/enemies.
I believe I did it last xpac on my hunter to get one of the really neat looking mecha spider pets- but yeah, I think it was hunter flare that reveals the mines.
It’s a pretty cool side place, hunters do get a few cool little side things for pets from time to time. (and really, the mechanical pets added are all pretty interesting, and some have interesting taming challenges).
An easy way to get in is fly up as high as possible and when you get dismounted from being over the island use a goblin glider to get into the middle area.
