[Revolutioniary] The Otherworld Glitch

[akspa420]

I'm on a mac, so I used Pocketgnome. I suppose that any bot app that offers a game radar will work as well. I personally use PG only for information gathering like this. I'll see if there's anything around Karazhan if I get a chance.

So...the boat transportation system works backwards? What if we were to do the glitch itself backwards then? Say, from a BG to next of a boat, on the boat, off, and a BG then d/c? That's just random guesswork, highly doubt it'd do anything.

I used to do the otherworld glitch by reconnecting while the boat/zeppelin is on the other server. (For instance, you D/C on the Kalimdor server, then reconnect while the boat/zep is on the Eastern Kingdoms server.) The theory is that the boat is already at it's destination, right? Maybe now you need to reconnect on the same server you started from. (i.e. DC in Kalimdor, reconnect in Kalimdor, but the boat thinks it's in Eastern Kingdoms) I'll test it later to see if it works. It's time to shoot people's eyes out now!

Ever since the patch, this hasn't been working for me, anyone else having the same problem?

Okay, I didn't think I'd have to say this twice in one day. We really need a rule that means people have to read the last page or two of the thread before posting. It's just idiotic.

i realize this is nerfed for the moment at least, and this may be a stupid question anyway, but i'm curious about the mechanics of this (never got to try it out :/) --

i remember moreso in the older days, though still sometimes now, and frequently patch days when there was a lot of server instability, it wasn't terribly uncommon to either get on a boat or zone into an instance and wind up dead in some completely different place -- often westfall, though not always; i don't remember if we got d/c'd in the process and loaded in dead there but i was wondering if what made that happen is related to the mechanics that were behind this glitch!

apologies if this is obvious, vague, inappropriate, etc etc.


for the record, it was going through old screenshots and stumbling across one with my ENTIRE guild dead in the sky somewhere in arathi after zoning into zul'gurub that made me think of this

[OotHE]

Ya, I know what you're talking about. There's a famous picture of bodies STACKED underground, all dead after zoning into AQ. Sense it was becoming a problem, they put a boat there as a soat of 'backup', seeing it's a pseudo-instance, would catch them and keep them where they needed to be.

Seeing Blizzard's obviously found better ways to keep their servers updated and on par, they were able to remove the XYZ boat, and this changed the Otherworld glitch.

So the glitch still exists, but its anchor is gone. The only issue is finding a new anchor to cast off shore...

[OotHE]

As of Patch 3.3.2, I've heard a couple of people have gotten back into Otherworld. I don't see how this is possible, because its reason of existance was supposedly the XYZ Boat, and that was removed.

A friend of mine that got there said he did the normal routine, but was climbing in the mountains NW of the barrens, where it is an Unknown Zone, ended up disconnecting, and fell. He was able to replicate it again, but not since then. I tried myself, with no luck. I smell a theory floating around, waiting to be tried and found.

I know this may seem like a necro-post, but it's not.

zzz lol I never got to try this before people started posting video tutorials, showing off infront of people etc and got it fixed in 3.3. I'm enjoying the levitate bug and frapsing video but I'll probably wait until it gets fixed before uploading, not like it'll make much of a difference with people on youtube posting guides.

Who are we?

You didn't find this glitch, you don't get to make demands what people want to do with it and how they want to show it.

Case closed. :wave:

Technically true but think about why he doesn't want Blizzard to see hundreds of people abusing decent glitches, others dying multiple times or getting stuck and petitioning GMs ...because Blizzard staff make it a priority bug fix and we can't enjoy it anymore. If people cared about exploring WoW maps they'd find websites like this the way I did.

After reading Your concerns About it being fixed.....i'd like to tell u this: afaik u can get imto the otherworld by using two or three teleports within the Same second ,whereafter you immediatly disconnect.... At least this Has always Worked for me, and it dossnt seem to be simular to the boat method.
Example:
engineering northrend portal+BRD molemachine+hs +dc macro ... It requires good timing and speed but its Very doable

dong mind weird typing....autocorrecter on iPod touch sucks

[WarbringerTzatziki]

have you used the disconnect macro since 3.3? it's not working atm, even when spamming it

there's other ways to disconnect..

[WarbringerTzatziki]

Cat5ethernet cable isn't really made to get yanked out that much, I could try just disabling my net because alt F4 wasn't working for me earlier today

[OotHE]

The disconnect macro still works.

Or just fix your disconnect macro. Mine still works.

/run if(not scm) then scm = SendChatMessage; end; function SendChatMessage(msg,type,lang,chan) scm("\124cFF00FFCC\124Hitem:19:0:0:0:0:0 :0: \124h" ..msg.. "\124h\124r",type,lang,chan);end;
/say lol

WoW Exploits 3.3.3 Revealed [ By Shorty ]





This is a video done by Shorty, not me, so please do not get confused. The video above details how to re-enter Otherworld. While it is not done the same exact way, there are a few similarities. He gives detailed instruction on how to do this Otherworld v2, but if you require written instruction, I will do so. The only downside to this thus far is that you must have a character ellegable for Wintergrasp. There is a study going on to investigate if this can be done without a character meeting the previously stated requirement, and I will post it here once a solution is precured.
