I found a really neat exploit that I was able to duplicate about twice out of 4 or 5 times. Usually when I am grinding or doing tradeskills I always get bored so I leave wow in windowed mode with tons of other applications running in the background such as winamp, youtube, aim, etc etc... btw im running vista.
Heres the breakdown..
After a couple of hours wow bogs down and starts to be very choppy.. but still playable.
One time after running many explorer windows while i was taking a boat to auberdine.. there is a load time. I think i was running some other program at that exact same time coincidently.
What happened was after an abnormally long loading time I was disconnected from the server.. and as usual i logged back on.
after another long load time... i found my character in the middle of nowhere.. all black, as if i had fallin through the zone.
At this point i didnt know what to do so i started to walk around and then all of a sudden i started falling thru the blackness.... and fell to my death.
When i Resurrected, i found myself in bradhills graveyard instead of being in kalimdor auberdine.
So looking at the map and trying to figure if i should Gm... i started walking around.. and i noticed something very odd.. there were no mobs anywhere in the rolling green hills.
I thought maybe this plaec was scarce in mobs.
After i going to the east to aranthi mountains i noticed no mobs again.
so i thought hmm maybe i can start mining without the fear of getting jumped by mobs.
then i noticed something very odd.... it said i had discovered some towns in the Barrens, duskwallow marsh, 1k neeedles etc! and i even got exp for it. when i was still in azeroth!
I kept moving around and i kept on discovering lands i wasnt supposed to discover. Apparently clientside my character did fall thru and ended up in azeroth.. however to the servers my body was technically moving around in the kalimdor continent.
to make things even more weirder.... i saw mobs floating above me.. as if i should have been at the right altitude in the serverside kalimdor.... i even saw mining modes floating in air.. not accessible.
what was cool was that the mobs when they tried attacking me.. had a funny path because since i wasnt in the normal linar path.. they would attack and then disappear then leave combat.
so in a nutshell i spent 4 hours just wandering around and mining got around 5000xp from discovering lands i wasnt in however to the serverside yeah. what was even neat was later after i logged out and logged back in.. i checked the maps and found out the spots i did discovered was listed on the maps.
i guess its a easy way of discovery exp and exploration.
im trying to duplicate it again... try heavy loads multitasking in windowed mode. ... more to come =)
