Beta – Most Common Questions
Beta – Most Common Questions
The intention of this thread is to create a FAQ, or possibly a cache of knowledge from the more experienced Wrath Beta testers to help out the new folks who are arriving. If you spend any time at all in the general chat for Borrean Tundra or Howling Fjord, then you will know that several topics come up again and again. Hopefully this thread will help answer some of these common questions.
I will update this thread as I see peoples responses and as I continue to play the beta myself.
Q: How do I get to Northrend?
A: There are 2 ways per faction of getting to Northrend for the first time.
Alliance: There is a new dock area inside Stormwind. The ferry from Stormwind will take you to Borrean Tundra. There is also a new boat which departs from Menethil Harbor. This boat will take you to Howling Fjord.
Horde: There is a new Zeppelin Tower that is in front of Undercity. This will take you to Howling Fjord. There is also a new Zeppelin that leaves from Org. It will take you to Borrean Tundra.
Q: How do I get to Dalaran?
A: There are several ways to Dalaran.
1) The “Official” way is a quest titled The Magical Kingdom of Dalaran which is obtainable at level 74. This quest will get you attuned to use the teleport crystal which is located in Crystalsong Woods.
2) Mages can get a self-teleport spell at level 71 by doing a quest in Dragon Blight. The name of this quest is called Attunement to Dalaran. Again – this is a Mage Only self-teleport.
3) Group Teleport – Level 74 mages can train the group portal and transport other players to Dalaran.
Q: How do I get to Coldera and the Nexus?
A: There is a short quest line from the Kirin Tor Mages at Amber Ledge. The quest line involves saving the captured mages. The final step of the quest is called Rescuing Evanor. Once you’ve completed this quest line, you will have the flight path which takes you to Coldera Island.
Q: How do I train a certain profession to 475?
A: Currently, many of the Grand Master trainers for different professions are only available inside Dalaran. This will likely change in an upcoming patch. If you cannot find the Grand Master trainer in one of the starting towns, then your best bet is to get to Dalaran to train. Also, please note that profession recipes are still a work-in-progress. More and more recipes have been added with each patch.
Q: How do I get to Lake Wintergrasp to PVP?
A: The only way in to Wintergrasp at this point is by flying mount. This requires that a player reach level 77 so that they can use their flying mount in Northrend.
