​@@TheRockinDonkeyonly time people got in trouble was back when you could climb the clock towers in Arathi Basin and thus jump outside the starting gates and be at a capture point before the battle begun. Granted, it's very easy to tell who does this, and it is an unfair advantage, so quick and easy report for cheating. I know a couple streamers did this, but more to explore the outer mountain ranges surrounding the basin rather than gaining any actual unfair advantage.

[@Tamamo-no-Bae]

Fun fact: This back area with a Zul'aman copy was only added with Cataclysm. It didn't exist in Wrath or TBC.

So it would be only the dungeon version, and not the raid version (tho, I don't remember if there was any difference really)

[@sha1060]

@@Tamamo-no-Bae yeah it'd be mostly details but that's also the case for raids/content that has been updated, like Zul'Gurub I find it interesting to know which version is it because it may say if they are still working on those off map version or not, is it like an old copy they keep just in case, ect... Why in the first place those are here instead of their own instance. What are they doing with it, I wonder.

[@Tamamo-no-Bae]

@@sha1060 I genuinely do not remember any layout or map changes between the raid and dungeon. It was a level/mob change mostly. Although I could be wrong. and indeed...It does remain a big mystery why it was added, perhaps they considered allowing flying during Cata's development?

[@Nothraxius]

@Tamamo-no-Bae It might be the case. If you compare the pre- and post-cataclysm minimap of this zone on old.wow.tools/maps/Expansion01 you will see they cleaned up the shoreline too. It kinda reminds me of Stratholme: the city is there and the shoreline is cleaned up, but you can only peek at it (normally).

[@cyndavi6655]

I remember this place. I explored that area a long time ago, years ago. Forgot it til I saw your vid. Good job. There's another place just between Mulgore and Stone Talon Mtns, a valley where the rabbits and small critters are having a war and they carry knives, axes, etc.. It's interesting too. Be well.

[@Xanthelei]

I didn't know about the little valley, but it's interesting the animals are at war there because there's a small group of critters in Mulgore that are wearing helmets. What a weird little Easter egg for an area the player is unlikely to ever find!

We loved doing this back in classic, here are some examples: -Hyjal was a favourite place to climb into, over time some of th exploits got fixed, but we always found new ways to enter. -You could go through the portal from inside Deadmines instance without loading out, using mage blink ability. The mage had to aggro a few mobs however, then use blink. The mobs then would be used for feral charge from druids in the party for similar effect after which everyone else involved would die, the druid combat rez someone who can normal rez and then that guy rez everyone else up. The outside seemed to be a great void, but if you brought slowfall potions (noggenfogger for instance) and used them you would land in water, then could explore a weird place with some assets placed and a continent in the middle. - Zul'Gurub has old ZG behind it similar to this one. -Dancing Troll Village -Ironforge Airfield -You could also climb behind AQ20 and AQ40 (and this worked before the dungeons were opened as well) Unfortunately you could not cheat the Gong, there as invisible walls in front of the actual portals.

So far, every Troll dungeon (that represents a city) is represented in the outside world: Zul'Farrak, Zul'Gurub, Zul'Aman, Atal'Dazar. Drak'Theron, Gundrak, and the Temple of Atal'Hakkar aka Sunken Temple are not cities, but temples. and thus are not represented in the outside world I think is a realy cool detail that, despite the zone not having flying, thus the open world dungeon not being accesible, they still added it!

[@killerbee.13]

I bet the development process for open-air instances is to start with the open world map, so that the dungeon will look right in context, and then copy the area around it to a new map file for the instance version at some point. Usually they do that copy when the map itself is most of the way done, but sometimes there are pretty big discrepancies that are left over.

I think they like to make it look nice when you fly over on the flight path.

You keep saying "untextured" when you probably mean "unpopulated". Untextured would be just things built, with white color on all surfaces, because they have no texture. They place has no mobs, so it's unpopulated.

Yeah I meant to say unpopulated 😂. I don’t know why my brain keeps going to the word untextured.

[@DembaiVT]

​@AllThingsNerdChannel you've heard it from other explorers. It used to be used a lot to describe areas of flatness between zones.

[@bombkirby]

This bothered me immensely and I'm glad you said it. People constantly use "texture" wrong in a ton of game asset videos and it drives me bonkers. It's just a word that randomly trips people up.

[@wombatpandaa9774]

I kind of doubt that Blizzard will be modifying this version of Quel'Thalas because they've basically said it would be connected to EK. Makes more sense to me that they would either start with a whole new EK continent and update it all, or more likely, just add the new and improved Quel'Thalas zones to the existing Cata EK and then update other stuff from there.

[@Magepure6749]

I once played on a private cata server where flying was enabled in Quelthalas, Ghostlands and Exodar. Was a nice perk, I saw what you're filming with my onw eyes, with a flying mouunt :D Was pretty cool.

[@michaelkovalsky4907]

Makes sense, it is probably a way to speed up loading as the assets are already present in the area so it can be preloaded. This is probably similar to how video games load objects ahead of time out of bounds and then bring them into view when needed

[@AllThingsNerdChannel]

Your right! I didn’t think about it that way.

Used to spend hours just looking at stuff with eagle eye/farsight back in the day. There was a macro that let you recast from where you were so you could go anywhere. It didn't even port you out of places since your character wasn't actually there. Used it to look around hyjal before it was finished and going out to the edges of the map where the ocean just stopped etc. There was also a gap in the wall at the caverns of time where you could get under the map. Also found a hole in the mountains in DF but these days you pretty much instantly get dc'd for being out of bounds.

This reminds me of when I was bored pre-TBC and decided to see if it was possible to swim around the northern edge of the Eastern Kingdoms. I started out in The Hinterlands aiming to see if I could come around to Tirisfal and just kept on swimming. I hit fatigue plenty of times, but there was typically just a tiny patch of ground I could catch on or shallows that I could hang out on every so often until the fatigue meter reset. Eventually, my luck ran out and couldn't avoid fatigue any more. IIRC, I made it to around the northern horn (would check the map often to see how I was doing) before I died. Took like 40-45 minutes.

I wonder if Zeb'Watha (a troll village Eversong woods, if you look at the Eversong zone map it shows a same gateway as Zul'Aman in Ghostlands - the gate itself was replaced by a mountain in 4.0.3 and it only remains on the map) makes a comeback in Midnight. It might be either another entrance to Zul'Aman which is supposed to be huge or another part of the troll lands which are not in game now. All in all, looking at the possibilities of what Midnight might bring, and as a Blood Elf player, I support the idea of building a wall and making the Amani trolls pay for it.

[@wombatpandaa9774]

I really want a full Amani troll zone or maybe even multiple zones in Midnight. They're such an important part of the lore, and the original WoW manual shows their territory being almost as large as Quel'Thalas itself, so it's be great to see its true glory reflected in-game.

You'll find with a majority of raids they contain a good chunk of the surrounding zones. AQ ZG and Kara all do this, as did Hyjal (kara actually contains ZG since they're so close together) .

A lot of dungeons and raids before flying were mocked up like this. After flying was added to the original continent they patched up a lot of the missing walls and weird normals (in 3D design terms, when you only render one side of a plane).

For a long time, whenever one of my new toons would start to get near the cathedral in Stormwind, I'd get a "discovered crypts" or something. I started to move each new toon towards that area, from different directions,to try to get a general location. It is NOT the crypts you enter beneath the Cathedral. I suspect there is another 'Kara Crypts" type zone down there, only never before entered by a player. The doors behind the grills, down in the canals, would seem to back this theory up. A second Stormwind dungeon, never completed, or perhaps an extended part of Stockade never completed / attached.

Some history: there actually wasn't a copy of Zul'aman back there until somewhere around cataclysm. When BC launched there was also another troll gate identical to Zul'aman further north. I think they planned initially to launch the whole troll half of quel'thalas, but then significantly down scoped before launch. In cata they started to add it and they removed the north gate because they wanted to put flying into Quel'thalas but it was down scoped again. Hopefully Midnight will finally rectify all these wrongs.

[@PHUSII]

If you go north of tirisfal and swim east, there is a tower and few npc's on land between wpl and epl, found it in my younger days :P

[@pyrolight7568]

Ya that is pretty common. There are NPC towns outside the normal paths, the airstrip (npc war) and so on pre-cata all over Azeroth.

[@axelvoza4656]

Hahaha, you have the same spirit I had in WoW with my mage and his Blink. Always looking were we don't suppose need to go, lol... 🤣😈

[@heatherwind]

I hadn't known until now that Taliesin Jaffee also voiced the male Nelf demon hunter! Oddly fitting considering Liam O' Brien voices Illidan -- keeping it in the Critical Role family :D

[@halbourneutube]

On my night elf hunter I used to swim from Feralas to below Silithus. The cave that existed before the dragon was inserted was like that... the checkerboard ocean... I remember falling into the hole and then the MC instance server would glitch. So shenever I wasn't in the 40 man raid and I felt particularly vindictive, I would head over to Feralas.

Years ago there was a point far in the southeast here where you could actually fly up on a flying mount. I used to go to world height there on my mage, fly towards the middle, and slowfall at flight speed to just float across the zone way up high

[@AllThingsNerdChannel]

Yeah I think they patched it unfortunately

[@PrincessPolyhedra]

They did, sadly :(

[@robosuit]

Why do you keep saying "un-textured"? Do you mean un-instanced?

[@AllThingsNerdChannel]

Yeah by accident lmao

[@Bop_Craft]

Have you tries to out of bound the Scholomance dungeon ? You can get out of this instance by jumping behind "Kirtonos the Herald". Its a boss. I made it and i explored all around the area.

[@AllThingsNerdChannel]

I have! Made a video on it :)

[@mr.kinkade2049]

In the past, most zoned dungeons had their maps behind the instance portal. You can do the same thing woth Zul Gurub stratholm etc etc atleast in vanilla

[@lawlestest]

the things DH is good for, lol. lovely class, love the mobility and little gimmicks. top 3 for sure. you can also do this by going to isle of queldanas and jumping via the walls and stuff near that "dead scar" in front of the raid. i actually fell through at one point and glitched my character out, couldn't login for a good couple minutes. it was fun using the statues on the side trying to get up on the walls.

[@Ally4Gamer]

First . if it has textures it is not un-textured as you said repeatedly Second - its its not secret city, just a dungeon Third - its same with zul gurub, you can take a way on the right side of entrance (across the hill) and enter old zul gurub

[@Nukearc]

Does this guy not know what a texture is? He is completely surrounded by a fully textured environment

[@kalironi]

I think he meant unpopulated or un-instanced?

[@TronixGuy93]

I've explored these zones inside and out years ago along with millions of others.

[@Aurimortia]

Venthyr port could be really handy if sl abilities were available across all locations 🤔

[@NeutralTea]

I love Zul'Aman & Zul'Gurub! Troll Lore and the raids / themes are my favorites!

[@AllThingsNerdChannel]

Heck yeah! :)
