And that part is getting the fuck on top of buildings!!!!!!!!

I saw a Youtube video of some guy climbing on top of the Stormwind cathedral, and I thought "shit son i can do that". After spending 20 minutes figuring out how to do the wall-jump, I took this screenshot from the top of the Cathedral of Light, facing the Canals. I would have taken one closer to the front, but I got trapped in an invisible box and had to hearth all the way back to Shattrath.


After that, I was planning on climbing to Elwynn Falls, but ended up running a friend through Scarlet Monastery instead. It's a good thing I did though, because we managed to figure out a way behind/on top of the building! Here's a shot from above the Whispering Gardens;


Normally, I would be pretty cautious about this wall-climbing shit because if you misstep and end up trapped somewhere, it means you have to hearthstone out. But since my friend was there, and also a warrior, things were a lot easier. Only one of us would attempt a jump at a time, and if the first person failed, we'd duel and they would charge or intercept back up ("CHARGE HACK"). Also, if there's one place that you know how to get to but your friend doesn't, or if it's somewhere only accessible by mount-jumping, it helps for that too!

Anyhow, here we're getting ready to jump onto the roof:


One side of the tower has a small opening into the building model. I didn't drop down here because I wanted to keep looking around, but I figure that if I did drop, I would have fallen into the main hub, or just to the flat grass space in the manner of being under Stormwind


Behind Scarlet Monastery!


We had to cut the trip short though, because Ricardo used the Unstuck feature not knowing it would hearth him out. Oh well!

This time, instead of jumping onto the Scarlet Monastery rooftop, I decided to head around the mountains and see what was there.

Here's a nice bird's eye view of Tirion Fordring's farmhouse.

Yeah, that's Stratholme alright. And you can't really tell because it's very foggy there, but there was a huge abyss in between there and the ledge I was standing on. Spooky!


DON'T TOUCH THE SPIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!


Well, eventually I moved far enough along (according to the map I was in the Ghostlands) where the fog cleared up, and the abyss turned out to be just a really steep fall with a plain that led even further into the continent. So I equipped my parachute cloak and jumped, but because I am an idiot, I did not dismount first. I clicked off the mount icon pretty fast in midair, but an unfortunate lag spike caused me to dismount 2 seconds from impact. There was no possible way I could click the parachute fast enough, so my silly little adventure ends here!!


Oh yeah, I also almost climbed to the very top of the building in Ironforge's Mystic Ward. This game is much more fun when you are not playing it as it was intended to be played!
