Karazhan - side door

[Yoshimiko]

Yeah, we did this through TBC honestly. Why wouldn't you skip trash and just get ahead if you could?

I'd go with..because prior to the nerf you could make roughly ~ 1500g with that trash alone.(150-200g per person)

you used to be able to spam click the locked door, and it would eventually open if opera had been cleared. This is no longer the case and the trash must be cleared out. Sorry =(

The back door was bugged throughout the entire expansion where Karazhan was relevant content -- the bug being that you could open the door from the outside after the Opera event. With the release of Wrath, Blizzard "fixed" this bug, making it so that you have to open the back door from the inside to unlock it on the outside.

It was actually fixed in Cataclysm which is why it's throwing people off. Took them 4 years to change their minds.
