[Theory] [Video] Naxx without ID

[Classicclean]

When I was at the "Northrend Testing Area" today, I went to the point where the four Naxx wings are located (above WP)
Then I wondered what would happen if I get into the instance without using the portal but then realized that I AM still in the instance, because I got there using the glitch in Sapph's room. But I still went in and realized that Kel Thuzad doesnt' 'react' if you kill his beloved cat Mr.Bigglesworth (there's just no yell) AND after it I ran out trough the instance portal, re-entered the instance and the cat was there again. After killing it, there was the emote. So. My theory is that you don't get saved to the instance if you kill a boss there, just like the cat :s
Remember that you don't reset the instance if you run in and out (if you don't change the group) so that's not the reason why the cat respawned. If you do it with normal naxxramas, the cat remains dead.
I will post a vid how to get there, maybe you can try to kill a boss there, run in and out and look if it's still there?
everything could be wrong tho, but I can't motivate anyone to do it


epic song incoming btw

Seems like a good idea, but could you tell us or give a link to what the glitch in sapphiron's room is? >_>

If your race is too big, so @everyone who's not gnome or dwarf

Just place yourself as "near" as possible into the edge and drink an "Elixir of Giant Growth" (1 Earth Root, 1 Deviate Fish, 1 Empty Vial) and jump trough it.

I think you got to OLD Naxx. Portal in instanced version of Naxxramas above instanced version of Eastern Plaguelands is still connected to OLD Naxxramas...
Try to kill some mob is that Naxx - how mach hp it will have?

That's what I've checked first. I saw some mobs with only 40k HP and thought "lol, 40k, thats not 80 Naxx even if there Level 81" but wowhead told me thats normal
But the funny thing is that I've got a NEW message "Welcome to naxxramas, reset is in xx.xx.xx" when I've entered this way.

I don't think that you get the old loot table if you kill a boss there. My theory is that you can create 2 different Naxx ID's

This isnt any northrend testing area.
In fact, blizzard was actually just too lazy to create an environment for the new naxxramas so they, instead of creating a new one, used the map which was outside the old (60lvl) naxxramas.

sure there arent any Frozen Rune's on the walls

I made a second video of the inside of the naxx but I could only explore the spiderwing a bit, I will check if there are runes

edit: you can't see the rune from the angle :s maybe I'll get invis potions to get into Anub Rekhan room

[Bandefaca]

Have you tried downing a single boss or mob, exploiting out, and then returning to see if that mob is still dead?

[akspa420]

Well, as a heads-up, the current EP adt that used to have the entrance to naxx on it, still does - the model is under the ground. I have no idea if the instance portal is still active or what, but there's always a chance, knowing blizzard.

[403Forbidden]

Checked. Went directly under the naxx (in video the person flew directly in it. I missed it a bit and went under into the "mushrooms"), then did /target Anub'Rekhan and was able to. Had a mage friend invis and run towards the boss, and then pull him (from "normal" naxx, as if he was in a raid) - and it was the same boss that i was targeting.

Therefore:
1) Very very VERY nice find exploration-wise
2) Unfortunately its not different zone/id/etc, its the actual physical location of two instance parts. Basically, [ x @@@ y]. where X is naxx entrance, @@@ is mountains etc, y is the "northrend" that you can see from KT's chamber, and KT's chamber itself. Its kinda same as in Ulduar teleport, and ICC teleport, etc. The locations "seem" near each other, but they are actually a long "Physical" distance away.

+rep for good way tho

Perhaps we should check on 10 and 25 man versions of the zone? Im attempting to make it inside myself at the moment. This is a great find and thank you for the vid, this reminds me of old school plaguelands alot, and theirs a version of stratholme that appears to be a touch different here as well. I would love to explore that place as well

Yeah this is what I wanted to do but I don't know a warlock with engineering cause they're all PvE heroes on my pally's server and I don't know someone on my druid's server whos interested in PvE/testling something like this other than a few, but no warlock :s
When you try that out, kill a boss, run in and out and look if there is respawn
I don't believe that it works but it's worth a try I guess
