[Trick] Unlimited Access to the Maelstrom!

[drudmaster]

I've just found this neat trick on how to always be able to enter the Maelstrom, not sure if it qualifies as Exploit, if not, then please move this thread.

Basically, at level 82 you gain the "The Maelstrom" quest. Accept it, and a Maelstrom Portal appears. Go in, talk to Thrall. Turn in quest, grab new quest. Jump on wyvern, enter Deepholme. Abandon quest; congratulations, you can now continue leveling quite normally, the portal to deepholme exists in Stormwind/Orgrimmar, and alongside it is the never-disappearing portal to the Maelstrom. (So long as you don't finish the quest of riding with Aggra. Just abandon it and forget about it. Continue leveling.)

Hope this is of help to those who really liked The Maelstrom, and want to continue seeing it!

that's pretty clever actually. Will do this on my DK.

I want to get into maelstrom on my char that has already done the chain +rep anyways since it will help my new chars

[drudmaster]

Thanks. Though I don't reckon there's any way to get that portal up and running again if you did the quest.

As this does not really give you any 'unfair' advantage to other players I'm moving the thread to WoW Exploration.
Nevertheless, this is a really nice find +Rep

You should try getting out of the Maelstrom, see whats out there hehe, +rep

I know what's out there; a bottomless pit. But what I do know, that in the beta anyway, not sure if still today, you could cancel the cinematic and you'd be in the "temporary place" they placed you. Not 100% sure if it still works; in fact I rather doubt it.

However, if we could only fly there, well, that would be a nice exploration. Maybe find things the developers played with, if any.

Indeed.... a huge +rep addition to the person that figures this one out!

Show me a way to go back to the Maelstrom and I'll show you a happy man. I'd also like a way to get to Kezan as well.

I'm forever contemplating how. Great find though OP!

Confirmed, but it messed with my quests and I could only do one chain. If you want to keep questing for Therazane and whatnot just pick up the one you dropped and grab the captain's log quest and you're fine again.
