BTW if you can fly there is an advisory against flying near native flyers they get quite upset when you invade their air space.

If you stay just inside of the Ancient Passage you don't get tagged and ported out.

I was so thrilled when I ported to Pandaria and when running off the steps at Dawn Blossom found myself floating in air thanks to the glitch. The first thing I did with this ability..chase after Cloud Serpent Riders.

ImageImageImageImage

I really lucked out with these two riders who had glitched and were just flying in place. But when I tried to get closer my game crashed and when I logged back on they were gone and I was plummeting into the water below. Which was better than plummeting into the ground and probably dying.

Also for prosperity's sake, and a good laugh, I took out a kodo mount and for once rode it:

Sigh..Blizz really needs to make an Alchemy Potion to let all mounts fly.

I'm hoping at the very least that they make one of the yaks a flying mount. Appa, yip yip!

I seem to desync from the server once I fly outside the original visual range of the place where I started this bug. I don't see any mobs and I cannot do any actions like call pet. After a few more minutes I disconnect and log back to where I ported into Pandaria. It's very similar to "offline mode" on live servers, although I haven't been able to get far enough out into deep water before I disconnect to see if I have a fatigue bar. The end of the world... I will try to reach you!

I managed to make it to the UP house before I disconnected.

EDIT: After doing this a few times I got it to where I didn't desync from the server. I can see mobs/players and finally got to deep water to have a fatigue bar. Blah.[/color]

I've had this happen to me, in Live Cata, just after 4.2 went live. It was fun, and now i really want beta...

It's actually easy to do. Get on your flying mount, talk to the panda in SW, port to panderia, and bam, you are floating.

Actually for me, I was in the middle of fighting a talbuk and suddenly found myself in mid-air. It was...unexpected XD

So I got this bug and decided to explore the island with the level 90 wind serpents. I found a mother tiger and her babies in a cave:

None are flagged as tamable, of course. I don't recommend getting too close, though...

All of them are level 90. I definitely eeped IRL.

The glitch seems to come and go since my NE can't fly put my Tauren can right now. And though fun, it can be irksome when doing a quest and when jumping back for distance, yeah I know hunters no longer have to worry about an enemy being to close but old habits die hard, I wind up floating. And it might be my imagination but my run speed seems to have decreased some too. Aw well, minor negatives aside I did find this little area while trying to get to the Veiled Stair MMO-Champ mentioned, its above Grookin Hill and called The Secret Aerie:

ImageImage

And it has about 2 or 3 level 90 Pandarans labeled Hawk Trainers and their Leader(?) Hawkmaster Norung:

ImageImage

Not listed as any faction they'll probably just be regular quest givers.

This also works for other unflyable areas, such as Azuremyst Isle. Just be on your flying mount then you port in or take the boat.

I'm selfishly crossing my fingers that they don't fix this glitch. But at least a few more shots in case they do:

In the Jade Forest found a small unused Horde base:

Since there's a wyvern it looks like it is/was slated to be some type of quest hub.

Then opposite the Wreck of the Sky Shark took pics of the Alliance and Horde Naval-Airships that weren't there the last patch. Neither ship has any crew members just like the ships in Darkshore. Also there's a working Abandoned Kite at the bottom of the cliff. Probably there for people who unfortunately managed to slip off the cliff, I've seen the skeletons, and need a way back up the cliff when they res:
