Escape what you ask?
Deathwing the Destroyer is comming – how could you not know. It’s all we have been talking about for months, we even had a cataclysm trailer Seer’s Vision released yesterday showing us the future. We know he is coming. We know he will destroy places.
Where are you going to be when the Catacysm hits? Think of your toons!
We can feel the earth shaking already beneath our feet. None of our Toons are safe.
This is where I reveal my plan.
Me @Rhiily aka Oh My Kurenai and and @_Angelya aka Revive and Rejuvenate have already thought about where we are going to be, or not be.
My plan is to Borrow a Goblin Zepplin and hide out in Stormpeaks.
WHO IS WITH ME
I’m not going to lie. It may not be easy and I am going to need help.
I am thinking a Duratar to Borean Tundra Zepplin might be an ideal target. We can sneak up from Rachet and storm the Zepplin Platform. Resistance should be minimal – while I prefer to keep the casualitys low, there may be some losses. Fly it out, and once it hits Borean Tundra, divert the Zepplin maybe just even cruise round the Tundra. I was going to head to Stormpeaks but I am expecting the colder air in Stormpeaks may cause issues with our hot air pump. Would like an engineer or two along just in case.
I’m reserving space for probably seven of my toons. The rest will need to find other safe spots. The Zepplins can fit 150 people Maybe 200 with standing room, and we can use the upper and below decks without causing too much overload. Mounts need to stay in bags sorry, and I reserve at least one of the Hammocks down below.
So where are you going to be, and will you help me?
I’ll bring Cake,and maybe a Keg or two.

Im going to stay logged off. Try and get me now deathwing!
An observation: zeppelins didn’t fare too well in that trailer. Might not be the ideal, uh, bomb shelter.
we’d get to it before it happens, so at least ours would be safe
Try hiding in ICC. The walls are nearly invincible.
Just don’t wield a big sword and wear an evil helmet with a plan to take over the world with adventurers ala Diablo style or it might backfire on you…
I am not sure I like the idea of being inside any structure what soever
I am with you! Ill bring fish feasts – real ones with lobster and champagne. If we are gonna go down, let’s go down in style!
Between cold air currents, anti-air turret systems at K9, hostile wild protodrakes, and the risk that some bored level 80s will mistake your craft for a new version of Time-Lost Protodrake, Storm Peaks is not exactly an optimal place to hide.
And I wouldn’t count on resistance being minimal, not with Garrosh in charge. Expect several waves of armored Kor’kron grunts spawning from thin air the very moment you try to hijack the zeppelin.
The final risk here is timing. Steal the zeppeling too early, and you’ll run out of supplies while circling around Storm Peaks. Steal it too late and you’ll still be en route to Northrend when Deathwing wakes up, at the mercy of the raging skies and sea.
I recommend giving Outland a try instead. Shattrath is an obvious choice, due to A’dal presence. Blade’s Edge Mountains rank pretty high as well, with their natural anti-black-dragon geography. And there’s a very nice view from the top of Black Temple, so you can watch the Shattering of Azeroth while staying safe.
i never promised easy.,… but it seems a better chance then all those poor bank alts in Stormwind when deathwing hits.
Funny thing, make sure to move all your alts out of Dalaran before Cataclysm, or they’ll get stuck there without portals.
The real decision is, do you choose Exodar or do you choose Stormwind/Ironforge. (Being on the BC server, Exodar is always the most stable Alliance city).
I’ll be in Stormwind =)
Cake? I’m with you if there’s cake. Which is saying something, ‘cos I have a feeling that the safest place will be Deathwing’s cave while he’s out streching his wings and grabbing breakfast. Hopefully he’ll cause an extended amount of havoc rather than just coming back to have a nap until his new adventure-group alarm system wakes him up.
Yeah great plan lets fly a Zepplin into harsh inhospitable mountains in a blizzard. I’m sure it wont crash or anything. Then all the people you dragged along with promises of safety will turn on you. You will try to run but no your broke your ankle in the crash and a gnome rogue clocks you on the back of the head with whats left of the steering wheel. and once your remains have been stamped into mush but dozens of angry feet they will turn on each other. The living will be forced to eat the dead. Then each other until no one is left alive but one mad mad gnawing on a night elf femur and muttering nonsense into his matted beard.
Fine – no cake for you.. and no gnome is clocking me over the head with a steering wheel… but you know if you wanted to come and proect an night elf.. or a frreaking holy priest you so totally ignored .. hi 🙂
Ill take my chances without cake, and you know the safest place for a priest to be is behind a retribution pally. healing. you know were to find me. Ill be at the gates of Stormwind holding the line in the name of the king. If that means I have to go toe to toe (or talon) with Deathwing himself so be it.
Ignored you eh what? unless you were silly enough to PM on a lvl 1 alt in Elwyn Forrest.
I am supposed to be a hero of azeroth – hiding would not be honorable – I might have to come to make sure you don’t kill yourself doing something overly heroic – and nah a lv 80 priest who accused you of forgetting them.:)
I’ll be surfing the wave at Booty Bay. Embrace the changes.
Love this. *grabs floaties*
extreme surfing – did you see the size of those waves… hope you don’t end up in a tree halfway down STV
I’m an engineer, I’ll come…
woot! no falling out of sky for us
If my extended Draenor holiday plans fall through, I’m with you on the airship! As long as we can get away into the mountains before Deathy starts beating his head against the walls, ofc.
I haven’t quite worked out the exact timing, but it might be safest the day before and not wait till last min. Time zone differences might also be more benificial
I’m heading through the dark portal, and spending some time in Shattrath.
Just hope you can get back..
erin, these are exactly as i had in my head when we were shotniog. they turned out perfectly. i love love love the relaxed lifestyle sessions and this family were perfect models for it. baby d is a charmer. my favorite is the one of him with arms stretched out on his blanket ready to take on the world. my second favorite is the set of mom and dad on the couch with him asleep taken from the side and from above. those are so peaceful and colorful at the same time. a good balance of colors and calmness. lovely work! we need more of these types of models and sessions!lesli
outland is where its at! Deathwing is too big to fit through the dark portal, so I’m going to hang out in Nagrand, eat some venison with Nessingwary’s hunters.
and after I post it, I see someone else get the same idea…that’s why you take a mage along 🙂 they have their own sets of portals 🙂
So uh, do we need to hide before installing Cata, or before patch 4.0.3 hits? Cata’s coming out the day after my birthday, so my birthday antics will give me some leeway there, but I never know when patches are going to come out.
I’ll try and do a dry run this weekend for timing purposes. I haven’t tried to solo a Zepplin take over in a while.
