Fly in non-flying zones (like Ghostlands)

[WizardTrokair]

"Walks Through Walls" here to show you how to fly in non-flying zones like Ghostlands, Exodar, etc... all of those Burning Crusade places that they didn't re-draw for flying mounts. Simply find an "Unknown Zone" in these locations, and mount on a hybrid mount, like the Headless Horseman's Mount, Frosty Flying Carpet, or the X-53 Touring Rocket. You can fly.

You'll be kicked off your mount as soon as you enter the proper zone... but as long as you stay in an 'unknown' zone, you can fly until your heart is content. Proof here of me doing it in Ghostlands... but I just tried it east of Exodar and that worked as well. This will work in any BC 'unknown' zone.



This video also contains footage of non-instanced Zul'Aman.
Thanks much to Cyloria for pointing out that I had discovered this glitch without even realizing it.

I'm pretty sure that it also works in "unknown" zones in instances.

If I remember well, the Deadmines Secret for example is in an "unknown" zone, so, you should be able to fly in there using a mount like the Headless Horseman' Reins, or an engineer flying mount.

I've just done Part II of this video... showing some more exploration in non-instanced ZA. There are a couple of portals, as well as some of those pink and white rectangles.

Do these explorations while you can... it is all gone with patch 4.1.

Some damn nice exploring there Grue! +rep when i can (need to spread it around first apparently)
Particularly intrigued by the last bit in the video with the Outlands map showing up...truly a wtf moment!
Could be some potential there, who knows? :P

another method to get on flyers in unknown zones is to Lock summon them. you wont be booted off your flying mount. some guildies of mine were doing this behind STV in Wrath after Leviglitching in. god i miss the old Levitation glitch
