[Old School Exploration] Unknown Area Eversong Woods Method

[Teryaki]

Back again with more old school exploration.

Searched around for a bit, and saw there were a few posts about this, mainly ones that require you to have a disconnect macro to get though walls. All of the other ones from back in BC/Wrath are fixed, having tried those ones out first. Searched "Eversong Woods" "Unknown area ghostlands" "ghostlands", got most of the same fixed posts back. Don't think this was possible Pre-Cataclysm, because if memory serves me right Tor'Watha used to be a replica of Zul'Aman, but it is no longer there.

I try to not use specific classes in my explorations, but sometimes it is needed. My last last resort would be using disconnect macros to get though walls.

This is probably going to be one of the hardest to explain.

Requirements:

• An 85 Warrior with the spell Heroic Leap (other classes may work as well, but Warrior is the easiest)
• A couple Noggenfogger Potions (or a similar slowfall effect)
• A lot of patience

Difficulty: Hard

Start at Tor'Watha in Eversong Woods


Right from the get-go, this exploration is pretty tricky. You have to figure out how to get up this little mountain in the picture below. I found it easiest to face the mountain and strafe to the left, going up the other mountain. In doing this, you will kind of attach to the side, and then jump forward. The symbols may help in the picture. When you latch onto the mountain where the star shape is, jump forward and you should overcome the obstacle. The red box is your goal. It took me about 20 minutes just to get past this first step.




The next part is easy, make your way up the mountain as far as you can, turn around and face the mountain.


Once you are in position, get ready for the next and last hard part. You need to get a running start and jump toward the other mountain. When doing this, you must also time it right so that you are able to Heroic Leap. The picture shows a general area where it works, but it all depends on the timing of when you click Heroic Leap in mid jump. Try all areas of the mountain, and how long until you click your Heroic Leap.


Once you have leaped over, follow the picture.


Now there are two ways you can go, either right on the green path (usually if you have Mage or Priest with you) or you could go the red path, which is geared for people with Noggenfogger Potion, or if your winging it (not suggested unless you're a rogue). For further explaining, take the red path.


Keep going...


I suggest for the next picture to Noggenfogger down slowly into the red square. Avoid the green outlined area, as you will need to hearth or auto-unstuck out of there. Keep following the red line until you hit the ocean.


Once you hit the ocean, if you leave the Eversong Woods general channel, you should be able to mount. Follow the direction of the arrow to head to Zul'Aman.


Working...




Just a little note about the invisible walls, some of them you can pass if you land on the ground and run though them, but some of them in the Zul'Aman area are impassable (haven't tested with a Mage, could be possible to blink though).

I spent a few hours running around these mountains and found this to be the easiest way. There is an even harder way that may not require a Warrior, but after a ton of swearing from falling and killing myself, I decided to find another way.

Have fun exploring! Sorry for the wall of text, and hopefully it is explained clearly. Any step that is a bit foggy let me know, I will try my best to describe it better.

Cheers!

Love it
Flying mount in azeroth before cataclysm was my favorite thing to do, nice to see we can still do it there

Thanks

Back again with more old school exploration.........My last last resort would be using disconnect macros to get though walls.

These two things are making you stick out from the pack, my friend, and what I think a lot of us are really enjoying.

First off, you are going to oldschool places... areas we have already seen... and finding new things. That is always exciting, and as I said in your other thread, inspiring. Second, you are doing explorations that do not involve 'walking through walls'. That is the bread and butter of many explorers (like myself obviously), so the fact that this is your last resort just pushes you toward things we naturally have not tried. That is also exciting and inspiring.

Unfortunately the forum requires me to spread reputation before giving more to you at this time. Keep 'em coming, and thanks for sharing!

I just want to say that a Warrior is a powerful explorer when couple with other classes, even another Warrior. A friend and I were able to get out of Stratholme and traverse mountains that without a Warrior I don't think we would have been able to. +Rep for Warrior exploration .

Edit: Just noticed you censored your name on only some of the pictures.

[Teryaki]

Thanks everyone. Will keep them coming! Next one I might try to use my Mac client and just record videos. I will have to re-download WoW though. About the censoring: I kinda got lazy towards the end, I am not too worried about it. I guess the reason why I started censoring my name was just instinct because I was always kinda taught that if you post something with your character's name you risk a ban. I would probably be more worried if there was an exploit for massive monetary gain or some other exploit or hack that gave me a huge advantage over players, which would be highly bannable by blizzard. The only advantage here is knowing that it is still possible to get there using game mechanics
