one odd thing I saw yesterday - but server reset and I went back to spot and it was gone :/

BUT

on So Rise - I saw a blip on my mini map - it said muffled noise???????

didn't get to flare it or anything - got reset - have not seen it since O.o

oddly enough it would fit my senses motiv

- scratch ears = touch
- berries = smell
- effigy = sight
- muffled noise = sound

how about that for most far fetched theory yet :D

I saw muffled noise, its just some human trapped under a tree that you need a Lumber Mill to cut through, nothing big about that.

Those crystals in Pillars are the closest things to Glass so far...I did find some mobs called Glass Crabs but they lead nowhere sadly.

i've tried stepping on runestones, and actually made my pet step on them instead later because pets take like no damage from them, but nothing. Not sure if i tried crystals tho. should double check now maybe.

Something tells me we need to start scouring the patch update to see what other things were added to find out what we are looking for.

what if we are getting ahead of ourselves? uselessx gave us the spells but we dont know for sure what order they go in. maybe we dont need to find the boss yet. do you think that maybe we are supposed to find/summon Gara herself first? Xan didn't show up until we started messing with his minions so maybe in order to get his attention again we first have to find Gara herself. there is a spell that says it summons Gara but she is still undead. if she is being turned into a void wolf it would stand to reason that the lantern may help us find her. maybe after we interact with her she will pull us in the rest of the way or Xan will show up, get mad that we are messing with his stuff again and then he will pull us in for a fight.

maybe our searches are supposed to be more wolf/ void beast focused?

So when Gara stood up did that count as summoning her? because it says the effigy thing after that. Hmmmm

Wait....where's spell 4 in that list? Looks like something is missing.

Edit: Also, there's one that says "Being consumed by the void". Where would we go to get consumed by the void....hmmm....

hmm - muffled noise - yes must have been a bug though.... I have already done that for lumber mill and I don't even have my lumber mill now. I ditched it once I got the follower - must have seen on the mini map someone else doing that part of lumber mill (quest) - some reason it showed me the undead marker for it on minimap :/ - that is why I didn't actually see anything in game though - wah wah wahhh

said it was far fetched theory :D

so to replace that - back to portal in lantern area.
to note: the symbols on ground are not set - when you step on one - it wont necessarily come back as same symbol
also: the symbols roughly correspond to symbols on the stones

do we need to step on them in a certain pattern? I pondered that way back too - hopefully this isn't one of those - /doh moments where first intuitions had some relevancy

might try running heroic SMBG at some point just for shits and giggles and hopefully some gear :D

also about the list and what was just posted - I think we saw the other undead version of gara - first is her sitting there
- second is when she is standing (effigy part)

so I think that is covered - (don't remember very well but it almost seemed like she phased or popped from sitting to standing (thus one npc id to the next)???

I guess i should point out that useless did not know the actual order of these spells. from what we know so far they are very much out of order so the way they are listed in the quote is not necessarily the order they will take place in.

been meaning to also say - my battletag is MoonOne#1510 and I am Zarra in game on betaleveling01 in case anyone wanted to brainstorm or whatever. Not a whole lot going on in /solvegara horde side - only a few of us in there at most

Also - if anyone has a spot that they want checked out but cant seem to get there - I'll go check it out -

engineer plus garrison building with gadgets = I can get anywhere
gnomish gravity well
disengage
glider
various items that throw you up
flying rocket for limited time

plus I love going in crazy spots - probably already know how to get to all spots from exploring beta - just have not put in the time yet since lantern thing - there is a crazy amount of real estate in Draenor :|

I even tried the Garrison shadowmoon orc attack. A void spawn is the "boss" or final wave but nothing.

the only places I know that relates to the void is here in shadowmoon and over in nagrand. Nowhere else, so I dont know! How do we get into the void, or get someone to put us in it or idk?
