WoW fun facts!

Do you have any interesting ones to share? Here are few that i thought were worth sharing.

If you’re a Warlock and you /flirt with your Succubus, little hearts will appear above both you, and her head.

If you’re a Unholy DK and you /glare at your Ghoul, he will cower in fear. You can also /cower at him, which makes him roar at you.

Gnomes and Goblins have 4 fingers.

Trolls have a single toenail on the back of their foots.

There is an easter egg that references The Jungle Book hiding in the north-east region of Zul’dazar.

Male Dwarves are the only playable race that has two death animations. They have one where they fall onto their face, and another where they fall onto their back.

There is a smiley face under Karazhan.

The core race with the least amount of customization is the female Tauren, which is currently standing at 38 different options. The allied race with the least amount of customization is the female High Mountain Tauren, which is currently standing at 30 different options. Poor Tauren girls. :frowning:

There are NPC’s in the Wetlands called Cursed Sailors that have a unique spell called Curse of the Eye. This spell turns the target into either a male or female Undead, depending on the gender of the target. You can use this spell to find out the true gender of your Hunter pets, Warlock demons, Death Knight minions, and Mage water elementals.

Makes them even creepier than I thought they already were.

Vulpera have 4 fingers as well. Must be a short race thing.

The same reasoning was given for Mickey Mouse having four fingers. Five just looked too busy and odd.

I have three fingers. Tauren get stuck again. :slightly_frowning_face:

If you have a companion pet cat and sit down, then target the cat and type /sit, the cat will come sit in your lap. :smile:

At least the Trolls are around to give you a high-three.

I’m pretty sure that’s the main reason we Tauren joined the horde.

Well this makes me want to roll a male dwarf hunter now, and make him fd all the time.

Does it do it on dark iron dwarves as well, or only the original?

Back in 2005, you could visit Hyjal in-game by hopping over a few boulders in southern Winterspring. The most beautiful zone in the game even had “Blizzard Construction Company” signage under the world tree. Good times.

Ironforge Airport was also accessible by walking along the hills of Dun Morogh. You could also get to a small cave above Ironforge that changed your zone to Silithus as soon as you entered it.

I have a macro that does the same thing with way less effort.

A lot of pets are neuter as well, such as aforementioned Water Elemental, so that spell will either default to one or select one randomly.

Doesn’t make them any less puntable though. And isn’t that all that really matters?

You can hold CTRL and Mouse Wheel up or down to move your character’s head.

Ok, this is stuff I need to know! Can you make it go side to side [my mouse has a side tilt]?

I don’t have one myself so I’m not sure.

It’s worth noting your character’s head will return to its default position after you target something (close enough to make you look at it) and cancel it.

Holding Insert or Delete can also make your mount do a loop.

These are rebindable, Key Bindings > Movement Keys> Pitch Up/Pitch Down.

Theres memorial in one of the Orgrimmar rocks, I believe the guy who designed Orgrimmars new look passed away before cata went live. You were able to clip inside of it at one point, but now it’s impossible to get in. So I dunno if it’s still there!

Owen well in pandaria is a make a wish!

I really want a micro holiday where we can visit GM island lol! (Sorry just thought of it while I was on the can).

There’s also a spa resort in feralas, and another Easter egg in feralas I believe, it’s a bunch of game devs in a blown up burning building.
