Hello everyone, hope you enjoy!

Satori, you've outdone yourself! This is a grand exploration of an area which is rarely seen. I love that your "theme" seems to be finding these underwater cities, and really appreciate that a Master Explorer such as Jaburius could inspire you as much as he has.

I never went and looked for this place after Jab's initial thread. Now that the path is laid out so clearly I certainly must visit very soon! Thanks so much for sharing. I must spread my reputation, but you have +rep coming soon for this wicked, wicked exploration. Rare!!


*edit: +7 rep. Tol Barad Alpha is simply amazing.

Fantastic find and wonderful video. Thank you for sharing! I had no clue this was out there but now I'm determined to find it myself. One day I hope we can "cheese" a way for our camera views to zoom back in once we get down that low.

+rep for awesome find and modest mouse!

As i have already told you, this is absolutely fantastic !

Glad you guys like the vid. Wouldn't have been possible without Paku & Jab's discovery and decision to share it with the rest of us, thank you guys again! Also, in case you end up reading this thread, sorry I didn't include you, Paku, in the vid. After going back and reading that link I realize it was the two of you who discovered this amazing place.

@TheWiz Haha yeah I think I've spent more time exploring under water than I have above it since I began. I was running around the Eastern Kingdom snapping pics for an upcoming PDU update when I stumbled onto that hole in the world lol.

@Fa3sr011 Thank you. Yeah I hope we find a way around that annoying camera limitation to. I was able to get some pretty clear pics through some secret trickery as you saw towards the end of the vid though.

@Twomanowen Thank you sir and <3 Modest!

@Spoutnik Thank you as well. Always nice to hear from one of the Masters =)

This was a classic exploration. You do not see many explorations like this anymore.. the hidden mysteries shrouded in secrecy by blizzard, but you have shown the community that these places still exist. Really nice find, and I really look forward to more explorations in the future! You have a lot of potential.

Just checked this area out. Such an amazing spot. Hopefully someone can someday figure out a way to reset that damn camera once it goes below the death line!!

A couple images from my journey:

Thank you Leniox! Means a lot coming from such an accomplished exploiter/explorer. I was watching some of your vids last night, insane stuff man.

@TheWiz Nice! That 2nd pic is probably the best non-ME pic I've ever seen of the place.

I couldn't tell in the video but @SatoriPDU seeing how you did it as a druid in aquatic form, you should be using two things: Glyph of Aquatic Form and Aquatic Form Wild Charge which increases your swim speed by another 150%!

Thanks for the tip Tmanowen. I did end up using both of those. I've been spending a lot of time underwater and I'm very lucky to have all of the speed boosts hehe.
