Of course, the hardest part about this is the enemy territory. Although it is relatively simple for alliance to get into most of the Horde starting areas, the Draenei starting zone was a bit of a pain. Just a note: Make sure you have all the locations listed under each zone. Some of them aren't linked to showing a portion of the map, so you can have the whole map revealed and still be missing one. If you have discovered it, you will be able to mouse-over it in the World Map and see the label come up at the top.

Have fun exploring.

Commentaire de 1497

You don't need to enter enemy cities, only discover them. Basically, you have to run across the entrance. Of course, the thought of killing enemies within their own capital may be too tempting to resist :).

Commentaire de MorphiusFaydal

I get the feeling that this achievement will mean a lot more raids on opposing capitol cities. I can see it now... "LFM for SW/IF/Darnassus/Exodar raid for World Explorer. PST". It'll be fun. :-D

Commentaire de zoombini666

As a 70, the Draenei zone is easy - just get on a boat from darkshore, run past the guards (they're too low level to be more than a nuisance) and get on the west boat. It'll deposit you right outside the exodar, and you can wander around to your heart's content.

The real pain is the teldrassil one - you need to run through Darnassus, and I guarantee you'll die at least once. Remember to take off all your armor so you don't get durability loss, and try to find a friendly shaman for water walking - it makes it easier to run through.

Commentaire de Egrimm

There are a total of 73 zones to be explored (including Northrend)

73 Zones, 10 points for every zone = 73x10 = 730 points
Explore Kalimdor = 25
Explore Eastern Kingdoms = 25
Explore Northrend = 25
Explore Outland = 25
World Explorer = 50

So by getting this achievement you will get 880 Achievement points
and 78 Achievements!

Edit: and a title :p

can someone please tell me what Achievement points are for?

can someone please tell me what Achievement points are for?

From Blizzard: (source)
World of Warcraft’s achievements system will launch with more than 500 individual achievements covering every aspect of gameplay, including world exploration, PvE, PvP, professions, and character development; from the purely whimsical to the truly epic, there will be something for everyone. Some achievements come with in-game rewards such as tabards, vanity pets, and titles. All of these rewards are purely cosmetic and just for fun, but you’ll certainly stand out when you proudly display them.

And don’t fret about running out of achievements anytime soon. The list is easily expandable, so you can expect additional achievements with each new World of Warcraft content update.

The Achievements Window
Upon starting your journey in Wrath of the Lich King, you’ll see a new button on your main action bar. Click that button to bring up the achievements window.

The top of the window displays the total number of points you’ve received for completing achievements. Below, each achievement appears with its name, description, point value, the completion date, and a progress bar (if applicable). Some achievements expand to display a list of individual components, highlighted to show which parts you’ve finished. You can also designate which achievements to track as you play, similar to the existing quest tracker. An important design goal is to provide players with everything they need to know to unlock an achievement.

It’s great to be able to see your own achievements -- but it’s even better to let the world know what you’ve accomplished. By right-clicking other players and selecting the appropriate option, you can compare your achievements to theirs. Every time you earn a new achievement, your accomplishment is announced to your guild and everyone in your immediate vicinity -- and the custom achievement animation and sound effect are unmistakable. Also, your achievements will be viewable on the Armory, allowing you to track and show off your accomplishments via the web.

Feats of Strength
Feats of Strength represent the past glories of Azeroth, and as such, players will find them very difficult -- if not impossible -- to earn. They’re worth no points, and unlike normal achievements, unearned Feats are not displayed in the achievements interface. Feats include old-world player-vs.-player ranks, obtaining rare mounts, special titles, and more. Feats of Strength will be awarded retroactively (that is, they’ll be immediately granted to your character if you qualify) since many of them will be impossible to earn in Wrath of the Lich King.

Types and Categories of Achievements
World of Warcraft’s achievements come in several varieties. Some simply require specific actions to unlock, such as getting a haircut or defeating a member of each race in your opposing faction in PvP. Others involve a progress bar and require you to do something several times -- such as give out 10 hugs. Some achievements are progressive; for example, once you complete an achievement to collect 10 vanity pets, you might next be asked to collect 25. Finally, meta achievements unlock when you complete other achievements -- unlocking all World Exploration achievements (see below) unlocks a World Explorer meta achievement. Some achievements, including those that involve quests, honorable kills, items currently in your possession, skills (including professions), exploration, and reputations, will be applied to your character retroactively.

To help keep track of all the different achievements you can unlock, you’ll find the following categories in the achievements window:

Player-vs.-Player
This includes arena, battlegrounds, and world player-vs.-player objectives. A few examples:

* Hot Streak: Win 10 ranked arena matches in a row.
* Alterac Valley All-Star: Capture graveyards, towers, and kill the enemy leader all in one game.
* City Defender: Kill 50 enemy players in your faction’s capital cities.

Dungeons and Raids
Every end boss of every raid and dungeon in the game grants its own achievement. Future achievements in this category may include ones for completing a run without any player deaths, with fewer than the maximum number of players, or within a certain time limit.

Professions
Advancing to each tier of mastery in a profession earns you an achievement, and there are specific achievements for secondary skills (with major professions to follow).

Quests
Quest-based achievements include completing a certain number of quests and completing specific quest lines. This category contains zone-specific subcategories.

Events
Seasonal events such as the Midsummer Festival, the Lunar Festival, and Hallows’ End have specific achievements of their own.

World Exploration
You’ll earn achievements by exploring each zone in the game -- and get meta-achievements when you fully explore a continent.

Reputations
This set of achievements includes attaining exalted reputation with each faction in the game.

General
These achievements tend toward the whimsical, including getting a shave and haircut (a new feature of Wrath of the Lich King), obtaining a certain number of tabards and vanity pets, falling from a great height, and more.

Commentaire de wingsofscion

I'm sure that as a level 70 you can handle 2 level 65 guards. And that's all you'd have to kill, because once they're dead you can mount up.

If you're referring to Teldrassil/Darnassus, there are more than two guards that will spawn. At any time if a Horde character enters Alliance territory (or vice versa) - meaning cities and some towns, multiple guards will spawn, and shortly finish off your character if not careful.

Does anyone know if this achievement is retroactive?

Commentaire de 165519

Don't know if anyone has mentioned this yet, but in addition to the Title "The Explorer" Wotlk wiki has model images of a tabard reward for completing this achievment, it just looks like a mini globe of Azeroth in the middle of your chest.

Commentaire de Nulgar

It seems the single achievements for the zones only count those subzones that actually unlock a patch of the map, certain small ones do not count, e.g. Night Run in Ashenvale. Well, the single achievements do say " revealing the covered areas of the world map" ;)

Commentaire de Batleth

"An achievement point is a unit that accumulates based on different types achievements. However, there are currently no plans to allow spending them on anything."

That's from wowwiki.com and the reference they use for the information comes from "blue" poster Tigole on the WoW forums. Here's his/her quote on the subject...

"You won't be able to spend achievement points. If you direct me to where you saw this posted, I can have it corrected. You can earn titles, tabards and pets currently through the system but you do not have to spend points to obtain them. They'll come to you in the mail."

Hope this helps!

Commentaire de Arikan

Horde will need to enter Darnassus, since there is no way to get to most of Tedrassil without running through the city.

Commentaire de 193932

You get 760 achievment points for this.

Commentaire de defektunge

Even at level 60, running through Darnassus wasn't any problem. The only part where the guards will even bother you is down by the docks, and once you've teleported up they won't follow you anymore.

There is no "hard part" of this achievement. It just takes a lot of time to travel everywhere.

It seems that Darnassus has gotten a large number of extra guards since I first posted about it. If you're horde, expect to die doing that part of the achievement. Repeatedly.

Commentaire de Keepertje8

After exploring every single part of Azeroth and Outland, I think I have found the most desolated and unknown zone in World of Warcraft up to Northrend;

The Shadowbreak Ravine in Desolace

Anyone else who has been playing since the launch of WOW, and disovered this well hidden zone while finishing this achievement?

Commentaire de 218363

Got the Outland one today, patch day, along with about half of the Eastern Kingdoms. It's very easy. Just make sure you get as much of the old world zones explored because the riding crop becomes unusable at levels higher than 70. And if you're planning on going for this achievement, you'll want all the speed boosts you can get. Unless of course they come up with a WotLK version of the riding crop, but i haven't seen one yet.

Commentaire de 242919

In the achievement screen (in game) it lists "Medium Rare" in a way that suggests it would count towards The Explorer title. I completed that achievement, and now it lists "Bloody Rare" as well. Does anyone know if these are indeed required for this title? Or are they simply tacked on to the exploration tab? Thanks!

Commentaire de 227735

Medium Rare and Bloody Rare are not required. As the list for Bloody Rare looks like it would be a bloody pain in the arse to complete.

Commentaire de Sleutel

I'd just like to confirm that you CAN complete this achievement without being able to fly. I swam to three areas (one each in Sholazar, Storm Peaks, and Icecrown), and there were a couple of areas that I was only able to get within the radius of after lots of frustration and jumping (like Frosthold in SP--I don't have the flight point there, just got credit for opening it on the map).

Really useful except it is missing a few.

Commentaire de Archoprez

Teldrassil is not as hard as people think. hit the portal and let yourself die inside the city. then u will be able to ress at the spirithealer outside city.
Easy way for low lvls to get teldrassil.

Commentaire de 258919

This is obviously easier if you can cloak yourself. Horde pals may have trouble since two of the cities require transports to reach and then you have to get out of the city to the rest of the island.

Somehow it's more achievement points than Loremaster. Oh well.

If you're bored, make a character named Dora, and get that title.

Commentaire de 300645

I don't know if anyone had the same thoughts I did for exploring northrend but, I thought I had to do the Northern Exposure (kill a rare elite in Northrend) achievement to get the Explore Northrend portion of this achievement. We do NOT have to do that achievment if anyone was wondering.

Commentaire de Denzo

Here's a nice tip so you know where to look if you have cartographer installed: Change the foglight option to something dark, so you can see what you have not explored yet.

Commentaire de 288624

In fact, to do Outland or Northrend you just need flying mount (I reccomemnd epic flying mount, but blue mount can be aslo) and Cold Weather Flying for Northrend.

The hardest part is to explore Eastern Kingdoms or Kalimdor. First, you can't fly and second, you need to pass enemy territory.

Commentaire de 242498

Make sure during this Achievement, that when you move from each place you have complete the Achievement for the place. If you insecure about where to discover, easly done by looking at the Achievement for discoverying the place. If you miss something and don't know where it is. Simpely use wowhead to look it up!.

Have Fun! Rember you get a Epic tabard for discovering Northrend.

Such a rip-off. You don't get a purple monkey pet *or* an adorable backpack.

Commentaire de 309618

The dranei place was no problem for me, but Darnassus was a little tricky, I actually got killed by 2 alliance and like 6 guards after I was knocked off my mount. I laughed about it and waited for them to run away and I just ankh'd and went on exploring. And then when I got to Stormwind I figured that I would try and be slick and fish in Stormwind, needless to say I didnt make it out of the Trade District lol. And I'm getting a name change to Dora, I already have the named reserved =).

Commentaire de 227009

Got this last night, as a Level 75! Without a flying mount, and without exploits.

Commentaire de Andrin

Just did this yesterday. Took me about an hour and a half to do all of Outlands and Northrend, and the rest of the day to do Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor. Ironforge and Teldrassil were the two worst for me since I'm horde. Teldrassil for obvious reasons. IF becase you have to run up that damned hill trailing 75's and all the alliance dueling outside took me out once I was flagged from entering the city gates.

Commentaire de 327477

This achivment is easy mode. The only thing it takes is time and patient. Remember to use the normal map it works very good. Some parts are harde to se what u don't have been. Then look at a map from here and compare.

For the hole exploration it took like 6 hrs for me.

And the ally cities is really easy. Darnassus is just to run trough and SW and IF you don't need to be completly inside just run a bit in to the front gate.

GoodLuck with your exploring!

This achievement is absolutely doable at level 70. Be prepared to die alot, and go to Northrend naked to save yourself the heartache of having to spend all your money on repairs. Its quite difficult to get at 70 but for those who do, congrats from one explorer to another.

Commentaire de Vjorlana

I suggest getting the Cartographer addon, going to the Foglight settings, and choosing a colour (I have dark green) which unexplored regions will be - very easy to see where you have to go, even when you can barely see it on a map without foglight on.

I'm currently working on the achievement, me being a level 74 Blood Elf warlock. I nearly have all of Eastern Kingdoms. Luckily I already had the Alliance cities explored because of the Fire Festival quest to steal the flames, but enemy territory exploration isn't too hard. Just make sure you keep running. So far I've only died once, and that was falling off a cliff because I had autorun on.

I do suggest having people to talk to or a movie to watch, because it can get pretty boring.

Commentaire de 349935

The problem with this is doing Azeroth, its a huge area and it takes a really long time to do this.

Outland and Northerend is no problem if u got an Epic Flying Mount, i was really ready for this achievement when i dinged 77, had done all Azeroth and it was just to begin flying around in the area`s of Outland and Northerend, took me a couple of houers to do this, and if u got an movie to watch or some frinds to talk to, this isn`t going to be any problem.

Good luck. (:

Commentaire de Vjorlana

Finished this achievement as a level 74 warlock (Horde). Storm Peaks took a lot of dying to get to the right places. Being an alchemist and therefore being able to make Invisibility Potions helped a lot in Icecrown. I take it doing it as a rogue or mage would be easier, but it wasn't -that- bad.
Also having a voidwalker to send through and distract mobs is a good way to get just a little further before dying.

Commentaire de 349862

If you're a mage and have learned the Invisibility spell (http://www.wowhead.com/?spell=66), you can use this to cross the thresholds of enemy cities without pulling any guards. This will flag you for PvP, so if you don't feel like killing off the opposite side just then, run in quickly, nab the exploration, and then run away and Blink when the Invisibility wears off - the enablement of the PvP won't cancel the Invisibility and you shouldn't pull any guards this way. Good luck! :)

Commentaire de 356694

I have 7 areas left to explore. The add on that helped me the most is from wowmatrix and is called mozzfullworldmap. It shades all the areas needed in blue

Hope this helps

EDIT : Finished this up day after this post. The add on made this really easy but may mess up quest helper a little bit. My advice, pick a day to work on just this then get rid of the addon as you wont need it anymore. I also found that when you get near the other factions bases, you just need to get close enough for the message "HORDE TERRITORY" (or ALLIANCE) whichever to show up, give it a second and you got it. I didnt get flagged once during the entire time I explored.

Commentaire de 151011

I already have everything Explored except Northern when LK came out so this one was actually easy for me. I don't recomend anyone without a epic mount explore Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms, seeing as they are the hardest ones.
And i couldn't pass up the Epic tabard

Commentaire de 129051

It is possible to get this achievement without Cold Weather Flying. You can get into Storm Peaks and Icecrown on a land mount (just waddle over the mountains), and have a Warlock and a friend summon you to those "impossible" places, like the Overlooks in the Basin.

Got this achievement at level 73, and had never been so proud.

Commentaire de 378956

Finally got this half way through level 70 on my death knight! I think my death count was somewhere in the mid 100s, most of which were in Icecrown and Storm Peaks. Had to have a flying mount for some of the discoveries in Outlands, but in Northrend, as long as you can find the sweet spots for the area discoveries, you don't have to have cold weather flying.

Commentaire de 417373

Elixer of Water Walking helps ALOT on Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms if a DK or Shaman aren't available. A Flying Mount is needed for Outland and Northrend. If you're broke, well you're out of luck then >.>;

Commentaire de 437680

My level 61 druid got this. He had to be ported to Northrend, of course, and he died many times. Teldrassil was by far far the hardest in Azeroth (because, of course, the hardest would be Northrend), as the guards in Darnassus are really a pain. Still, I got this achievement really early, and whenever I join a group people (unless they have someone to help them get Jenkins or so) don't have titles.

If you want to do Outlands at any level (I would be guessing something around mid-70s) just fly - it's faster and you don't aggro mobs, even if they're too high for you. Also, you can just fly from continent to continent with incredible ease. Getting into those high perches is also no problem. If you don't have flying, a 100% mount will do, but it will be harder.

Northrend - if you don't have Cold Weather Flying...I got my friend who introduced me to the game years ago to help me. We just rode around. However, if you don't have a friend, you'll die more than a few times (or not, depending on your level). Anyways, to put it in a short sentence:

Flying made a world of difference in getting this reward!

If you are HORDE, you still need to get to the Azuremyst and Bloodmyst Isles. Don't swim or take and Elixir of Waterwalking. You will die. Take the Alliance ship leaving from Darkshore. You can get to Teldrassil with a fast mount and the elixir though - only just. :) /moo

Commentaire de 233449

Man, after an entire day of running around in Azeroth, I finally got this achievement! Azeroth was the hardest to explore due to the large amount of land and only being able to use a 100% mount, but even then, it was very interesting and sort of fun exploring lands I've never seen firsthand. As a mage, I unknowningly started this achievement while doing the Midsummer achievements (along with questing), having uncovered many areas with the huge help of my ports. Find a good chair, grab some snacks, pop a few good movies, and have fun!

Commentaire de Heeris

I'm currently doing World Explorer solo as well and can confirm that Explore Northrend is indeed doable without a flying mount. The only places in game which requires a flying mount are "Socrethar's Seat - Netherstorm", "Vortex Pinnacle - Blade Edge Mountains (And the other 2 parts up there), "Crystal Spine - BeM (and the other part up there), "The Twillight Ridge - Nagrand", "Skettis - Terrokar Forest", "Netherwing Ledge - Shadowmoon Valley" and "Throne of Kil'Jaeden - Hellfire Peninsula".
Some clewer use of spirit healers and regular common sence is needed though :-)

One of the good but used achieviements theese days...leeroy is too so really somefew more achieviements thats general and has a title could be needed, just to say you need to explore everything on the map and it can take time but atleast you have all the zones covered.
For a second thing don't try to do this if your not 80, you can do the other zones than the enemy starting zones, guards have being improved with level to level 75 so watch out.

Commentaire de knikkers

Bloodmyst isle (11-20 dranaei zone) was the worst of all. The isle is the size of a peanut but has 28 areas to explore. On any other normal map you just have to walk around riding towards the major landmarks to uncover the land, bloodmyst isle actually demands that you visit tiny settlements and such (think STV only 10x worse). That tiny island northeast of bloodmyst (wyrmscar) has 4 locations alone.

Azshara is another horrible place. Once you jump down to the ruin-coast there's only a few places where you can get back up on the cliffs, i spend 15 minutes looking for those ramps upward.

As a death knight i found that when venturing in alliance zones (i'm an orc) using path of frost is a true blessing. Especially when going to azuremyst/bloodmyst/teldrasill.

I have just completed this with my Night elf and I just wanted to give a pat on the back to all the Horde explorers out there who have had to get through Darnassus. Ironforge, I suspect, is not a breeze either with the hill filled with guards all the way up.

The hardest one for me was Silvermoon as you need to get a way into the city to get the discovery and I couldn't find a 'back way' like with Thunder Bluff, or with Valley of Trials and the Tauren Starting area (the name escapes me, many apologies).

Kudos to you, guys, keep exploring.

Commentaire de Xoxotl

I have to wonder, after the next expansion (Cataclysm) where Azeroth is being "re-made", I wonder if those who currently hold the title will have it changed to a Feat of Strength.

Some parts of the map are bugged (Some of the ruins in STV for example) and can give quite a headache at times. I recommend using the Carographer TomTom addon, and looking up the coordinates to make things go faster.

A little bit of speculation here, but I think that the achieves and title will be converted into feats of strength in Cata. What would make it cooler is if they changed the achieve to "old world explorer" for having old Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimidor explored (I doubt Northrend and Outland will change) and change the title to "<name>, Explorer of the Old World" to reflect the changes to the world.

Commentaire de Larange

Does anyone know what will happen to this achievement/title when Cat comes out and the whole world is different? Will it be converted to "Discovered the old world" or something, or will it stay as the only one and exploring the new world will have no Achiev/Title?

I have looked around and seen no mention of this. I stopped being lazy and went and got this achieve just in case there is some cool reward for it when Cataclysm comes out.

Commentaire de 354046

This does not appear on the Feats of Strength list. However, this shows exploring "the regions exposed by the Cataclysm" (read: the new zones added in the expansion) as a new requirement of this meta-achievement. So it looks like they will not make this a Feat of Strength, and anyone who now has the Explorer achievement will lose it until they go explore all the new Cataclysm zones. Things could change of course, but that's how it looks at the moment.

That seems unlikely, partly because it seems a bit unfair and partly because they've never added to the requirements of existing achievements before. But then, achievements have only existed for one expansion, so it's not like an longstanding precedent, and like people said upthread Explorer is relatively easy.

In Cataclysm, the new model for a new kind of primate is an actual monkey, as opposed to a gorilla. Any aspiring Dora the Explorer, or indeed anyone who has it already, will want that new pet in Cataclysm, especially with the greatly increased pet slots.

Commentaire de 448509

Has this been a feat of strength before BC and LK came out? mustve been really easy in vanilla wow. except for maybe darnassus. and deadwind. course back then they had fast mounts at 60, instead of 40. happy exploring horde players. and show that title off in UC. thats the place to show it off. NOT dal. and plz, get a different tabard.

Got it on my level 1 :D

Here's some helpful tips for low levels:

It's incredibly useful to have a multi-person mount. You still aggro everything around you and die in a few hits, but now at least you can outrun almost everything. Plus, you get it done a lot quicker. The Touring Rocket mount makes Outland/Northrend a breeze to explore.
To get to some hard-to-reach areas, you can die, run to another spirit healer, logout, log back in, then resurrect there. This works especially well in Storm Peaks and Icecrown where it would be impossible to reach some areas without a flying mount or summon.
Health-increasing enchants and potions/scrolls helps a lot in low-to-mid level zones. My 1 had about 570 health, which was enough to survive easily in low level zones and survive a few hits in higher-level Azeroth zones, but wasn't enough to survive a single hit from anything in Northrend.

You'll need a warlock to summon you to a few places, namely:

Skettis (Terokkar Forest)
Throne of Kil'Jaeden (Hellfire Peninsula)
Maker's Overlook (Sholazar Basin)

You may also want warlock summons to other hard-to-get places, however there are other methods to get there:

Netherwing Ledge: Method
Forge Camp Wrath/Terror, Ogri'la, Crystal Spine, Bash'ir Landing: Method
Maker's Perch: Get under it and climb up a little corner near the cliff face
Twilight Ridge: Method
Socrethar's Seat: Method

Commentaire de Boneflesh

I am wondering what will happen with this achievement once Cataclysm gets released? Since Azeroth will be changed...

Perhaps Blizzard will make it a Feat of Strength, something like "Old World Explorer", just like they did with the FoS for defeating the classic version of Onyxia?

And what will the new exploration achievements be? Re-explore Kalimdor, Eastern Kingdoms? :)

Obtainable at 82. Once I hit 82 I flew into Deepholm and got the achievement and title. Fairly easy to accomplish with a flying mount for all new areas. Tol Barad is not necessary for the achievement.

For the Horde: The only real tedious one is Azuremyst and Bloodmyst, since you can't fly in (or into for that matter). You take the fatigue crossing just fine on a flying mount to Rut'theran Village, and take the boat (if you're facing it coming in) on the left side of the village with the purple sails. Once you get to Azuremyst Isle, you'll be dismounted, as you can't fly in the Starting zones for BC (for reasons unknown). I recommend doing this journey in your birthday suit, since crossing into Ammen Vale most certainly will end in death. There are several very high elite guards on the path between the mountains that will make quick work of you. Just die, then do the graveyard shuffle back to your body, trying to make some distance into Ammen Vale. Once you get there, That part is explored and your done there. The rest of the Isles are a cakewalk, albeit tedious. I recommend exploring the rest of Azuremyst and Bloodmyst before attempting to journey into Ammen Vale.

Note: Don't forget to check for Hidden Reef. It's in the cove NE of Amberweb Pass. Good Hunting!

Commentaire de 669865

Is this achievement still obtainable? I got it a couple of months before Cataclysm came out and now I see more and more people with the title. I heard that Blizzard was going to take it it, though. Can anybody confirm this?

Commentaire de Raincloud

Use this addon

Then the achievement is made easy.

Strange thing... on my druid have some achivements that i DIDN'T explore higher levels and alliance lands... is it a bug? Just make it clear that someone should have same problem with that.

Commentaire de 809763

This isn't that hard to get when you've gotten a 280% or 310% flying-mount (Learned 280% or 310%). I discovered Northrend in less than 3 hours, I also did the same with Outlands, and I'm pretty sure I can do the same with Cataclysm. But Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms might take about a day each to discover if you ain't lazy.

This doesn't take long if you really try to do it!

Commentaire de TheHandOfSeth

An update for this achievement since Cataclysm:

You may now fly over Teldrassil (thus Darnassus), though this requires the obvious of being trained in flying, Azeroth Flying License, and owning a flying mount. That said, it is still rather annoying seeing as how Teldrassil is so bloody tall. It is also possible to fly from Darkshore to Teldrassil on any flying mount, despite having to pass over off-shore areas. Even on the slowest mount, you will reach the non-fatigue line around half fatigue.

Also, exploring any zone other than Burning Crusade zones in Azeroth is now possible on a flying mount. Keep in mind that fast and very fast (artisan and master) flyers move fast enough that you can enter and leave some discoverable locations without actually 'discovering' them. Make sure to wait for the "Discovered: 'x'" message before continuing on.

The only bit I got stuck with out of all of this very easy achievement was the hidden reef which I used this http://www.wowhead.com/maps?data=3525:365110348116318145306174299215309233321250344240379234398217418182415153400124379110332133299194361238404198 link for - after that it is a doddle!
Happy travelling and of course along the way you can do your silver dragons, loremaster, professions, archeology...

I have done all of the exploration achievements and received the tabard and title. But, the armory only shows me at 96% complete. All achievements done, but 77/80.

I am proud to announce that I just finished Explore Deepholm, Explore Cataclysm and World Explorer at L69 last night due to a kind paladin with a guild perk. Don't let anybody tell you it's level-blocked - although there's no way back to Deepholm without assistance.

i got the explorer achievement before cataclysm, but have since deleted the toon & no longer have the achievement or the title since she was deleted before the shared achievement implementation--now with cataclysm, you can no longer get to azuremyst by way of the darkshore boat--so my question is this, since most achievements ARE shared by all toons on your account, if you have an alliance toon run around azuremyst/bloodmyst/teldrassil/darnassus/ruth'eran, & get the explore achievements for each of those ON that alliance toon, will they count for my much more frequently played horde toons to get the achievement, or is the excploration achieves actually NOT shared account-wide?

Commentaire de ItalianGoat

Do we have to explore every inch of the zones, or can we just fly over the middle of each?

Commentaire de Pipkins

When doing activities like this that require you to look at the map, such as exploring or Archaeology, I advise that if you are using a map addon e.g. Carbonite or Chinchilla, to use the default map and minimap, or at least have them up alongside the custom maps, as no addon I know of is as good at tracking and showing zones as the standard one.

Commentaire de 1136297

This is one of the time consuming achievements, but it may be worth it. I have never gotten it myself. One day I will just not sure with which toon.

Kalimdor from North to South is 7.2km
Eastern Kingdoms from North to South is 7.2km
Pandaria from West to East is 3.3km

About how I came up with these results, below are the details.

I wanted to have a rough idea about the size of Azeroth continents in kilometers. I flew through Kalimdor from North to South. And through Pandaria from West to East. I paused the timer during the Hyjal ascent and descent. Below are the results:

Kalimdor: 12 mins (North (Frostsaber Rock) - South (Neferset))
Pandaria: 5:30 mins (West (Sra'vess) - East (Winward Isle))

I was not able to get a time result for the Eastern Kingdoms since it is not possible to fly through Ghostlands and Eversong Woods. But looking at the map, the continent sizes tells me that Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms are pretty much the same distance from North to South.

Assumptions:
In real life you walk 1km in 20 mins.
In Azeroth walk speed is 1/3 of run speed.
In Azeroth fastest flight speed is 4X run speed.
Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor is about the same length from the North to the South.

Given the these assumptions are correct, it is a matter of simple calculation to come up with the following results:
Walk speed is 3kmph (60/20=3)
Run speed is 9kmph (3x3=9)
Fly speed is 36kmph (9x4=36)

Thus:
Kalimdor & Eastern Kingdoms are roughly 7.2km from North to South (12x36/60=7.2)
Pandaria is roughly 3.3km from West to East (5.5x36/7.2)

So that's it :) Our continents in game of course are smaller representations of the actual continents in lore. Yet it is good to know about the distances that we are dealing with in game.

I was totin' my Thunderfury along the dusty Needles road,
When along came a Mammoth with a high an' canvas-covered load.
"If you're goin' to Feralas, Rakk, with me you can ride."
And so I climbed on to the mammoth and then I settled down beside.
He asked me if I'd seen a road with so much dust and sand.
And I said, "Listen, I've traveled every road in this here land!"

Hey folks! I got this four days ago, and it was definitely a bit time-consuming, but so worth it if you like getting as many titles as possible!

I highly recommend having the fastest flying for this, and then get the Paste and TomTom add-ons. You can find extensive lists of ALL the coords for each area, then paste them in to the Paste add-on all at once rather than individually.

I had explored around 50% of the areas from leveling, so it took me a few hours to finish this up once I put my mind to it. Put on a movie/podcast/audiobook, use your add-ons, and fly!

Commentaire de Lumberbeard

Should there be seperate achievement, one for being Horde and other for being Alliance. Test of feast to explore enemy area from both. I am done with Horde side and working on Alliance side. It's different fight. But cool to achievement on both side. Horde Universal Explorer and Alliance Universal Explorer. What you all think?
