Very cool +rep

Oh god, the gnomish gravity well ! Must. have. it. now.
There's a zeppelin outside of grim batol, did you see it ? Can you access it ?
Anyway, really nice exploration, i'm really in love with the gnomish gravity well right now.

+4 rep coming your way!

(Edit : ImageShack Album - 2 images in case you want to see proof/location of the zeppelin, screenshots made on my local server)

I've just sent another +2 rep your way, Dellion. This is an amazing exploration that uses every trick in the book, and then some! The wall jumping at the 5:00 mark is especially noteworthy.

I thought the "death line" made Grim Batol explorations impossible... but you have proven us wrong!


PS - As a new engineer myself, I just can't wait to get this Gravity Well...

[Malfurion]

Good work again, Dellion. I love your explorations. How did you get the idea that you can use the Gravity Well there? It doesn't work in any other instances for me. But I've tried it there and it worked.
However, you've got +rep from me for an well done and explained exploration!

name of last track in the video? oh and nice exploration

I hate to bump this old thread to get information... but I need an update and figured this was the best place...

Dellion (or anyone)... is this exploration method with the Gravity Well still working? I heard a rumor that this no longer worked. I currently have it listed as a valid method in the Exploration Tutorial, but wanted to remove it if it was no longer valid.

Please let me know, thanks much!

Can't use it anymore in instances

[Nyarly]

Can't use it anymore in instances

I can confirm this. Can't use it in instances and can't stay in the air with the headdresss.
Other than that i didn't try anything so maybe dellion will help you more

[WizardTrokair]

To be clear... I am aware that you typically can't use the Gravity Well in instances...my WoW Tutorial project states this in the Gravity Well section: "Typically this item cannot be used in instances, but exceptions have been found..."

This was the exception... this spot in Grim Batol that Dellion found here was a fluke for the Gravity Well... I was asking if this particular spot still worked. I will just run to Grim Batol and check it out myself (and report back).



*edit: Reporting back. Dellion's glitch still works fine. The Gravity Well absolutely does still work by the entrance portal in Grim Batol.

I'm going to look for more instance locations where this might work. I have some ideas...
