While doing the pre-patch quests for Khadgar, I noticed that the phasing technology becomes so advanced that /follow still sticks but characters all phased to their own instances. After talking to NPC and leaving, all characters instantly phase back to the same instance. I'm speechless!
Ye, I noticed that too. I would have to assume it's not actual phasing though, but simply making the other characters not render, while they are still there in the same phasing.
I think it's been amazing that they were able to instance the invasions without a load screen. Pretty impressive.
Do you know if this extends to the outdoor world in Legion or are we doing the phasing shuffle again?
I wonder if artifact quest lines are done using the same tech. might make running them a bit less painful.
I'm wishing for the same thing! We will find out soon! very soon!!!Quote:

In fake phasing its instant, no delay whatsoever. Its like you're still in the same instance except everyone but hunter pets are invisible. You cannot target anyone, but you can follow them, and also really weird you can trade with them, cast spells on them such as my Disc priest can still shield my invisible tank. Probably an oversight they will fix soon. I also checked and IWT works just fine.
In real phasing its just like what we are used to, for example entering an area where it changes based on what stage of a quest you are on. Wont help in this situation when its a solo quest because you're in a completely different instance and you cannot follow.
Edit: I will add that what I named fake phasing was the Khadjar quest line in Dalaran, and what I named real phasing was later in that quest line where we had to enter Ulduar.
Ok thanks for the clarification!
Really funny thing about the phasing now. I can still ride on my mains dual-mount even though I cant see him.
Was doing the Elemental shaman artifact quest which sends me to Pandaria, and of course she doesn't have flying there and no flight paths, so I jumped on my main to take her everywhere. In the areas she was phased I could still ride the dual-mount and just IWT to mount it again even though we were in different phases.
Before it would kick me off the mount when phasing. They fix one thing and break two, but the broken things are helpful to multiboxers.
