[Guide Video] Stormwind Bank

[Killalots]

Greetings Exploration Board!

I've been in here very little since I returned from my last break of World of Warcraft. Today I return with some interesting information on how to enter the bank of Stormwind. Behind the bars. The technique itself, once mastered, is simple but hard when starting out. Bare with it!

Video can be found here : YouTube - Stormwind Bank 3.3.3

Note: This guide is image heavy.

It must be said, as I've not tried on anything else, that you need to be a PRIEST with Levitate. Unless you have thousands of Light Feathers, then you are advised to get the Minor Glyph, Glyph of Levitate.


Step 1

Your starting location. Cast Levitate and move around the outside of the cliff. Hug the cliff in order to stop yourself from falling down.

Step 2



Once you reach the above location, walk up the (almost invisible) ridge until your standing at the highest point you can.

Step 3

Keeping Levitate on, hug the cliff and move around the edge of it.



Follow the path laid out above.


Step 4

You'll eventually reach a path that leads up to where I am standing on in the image below. It is a pain to find. The above image explains that you must go AROUND a 'bulge' (Extension in the cliff).

The above image shows said path.


Step 5

Again, follow the cliff around until such time you find yourself in the position below. A bit messy, but it explains it.

Again, a tad excessive. Click here to view it : http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/8...00615at083.png


Step 6

Now that you've got all this way, this is a pain. Walk up the cliff to where I suggest. Turn your character towards the Wall and walk straight forward with Levitate ON. You'll drift onto the wall. Take Levitate off and jump to the opposite side.




Step 7

By far the worst part. Just take your time and don't rush this. Gently ease yourself onto the edge and just push yourself forward. Very lightly. To much and you'll end up underneath Stormwind and you'll have to recreate this.



Then, back yourself into this corner, face your character looking out. Run forward and jump off of the wall.



Finally!



Conclusion

Hope this has helped. The technique shown not only leads you to Stormwind Bank but also underneath Stormwind and the Stormwind Gates etc, thus the +More in the title. Grammar Nazis, I know some of this is wrong.

Cheers,

Killalots.

i tought levitate exploits wherent alowed

[Killalots]

It doesn't state that in the Exploration rules. Therefore I assume it is correct. I wouldn't understand why they'd be banned though.

Its a clever use of a game mechanic in order to explore the world.


Using Recruit a Friend, you could summon your friend, a warlock, into one of these areas and then summon other players who are without the ability to get there with Levitate. Simple work around.

None the less Morphh, my thread is justified as it is exploration therefore it belongs in the exploration thread.

Edit: Priests can cast levitate on other players not just themselves. So Morphh, think before you speak.

Cheers Mik. You can have as many players as you want in the bank.

The fact is, the exploration here takes you on top of Stormwind which means you can get underneath it. This isn't just Stormwind Bank exploration, but rather, the entirety of Stormwind.

Looks very interesting, and from my PoV, looks like if you jump from your post up on the gate you might be able to land ontop of SW bank, an old glitch spot which i think was patched, not sure. Great place for horde to kill Allys.
