    Launch prep - where do you park your character?

    Hi,

    Quick question;

    I was thinking about the BfA launch and where it would be best to park my character.
    Because it's probably not a good idea to log out in Orgrimmar for example.

    On beta I believe the starting quest (to go do the staring scenario in Undercity) begins in Orgrimmar.
    Or am I totally wrong on this?

    Where are you parking your char or do you think it doesn't matter at all when BfA launches?

    The outhouse in my garrison. All those cupcakes I pickpock from the Nightborne tend to stuff me up somethin' fierce.

    The starting quest is in Silithus, at least it was on beta.

    Probably won't be parking my character anywhere as the servers shouldn't go down if its going to be at all like Legion, just log in a few hours before and hang around

    Dalaran.. Legerdemain Lounge. Log in once with every character at launch and then go to bed .

    I would strongly recommend not picking Brill.

    Or the Undercity.

    Or Tirisfal.

    You know what, avoid the Eastern Kingdoms in general.

    Wasn't the first part with the heart moved forward? I think silithus is where you need to go first now anyway after BoL.

    Oh Really? Haven't checked beta in a few weeks. So the starting quest will be in Silithus?
    Is that for both Horde and Alliance?

    Cheers

    I park one character on each continent so I can still shitpost in guild chat even if one of the continents goes down.
    It became clear that it wasn’t realistic to try to get the audience back to being more hardcore, as it had been in the past. -- Tom Chilton

    I was hoping they would do another Launch test to confirm all this, but so far there has only been the one..

    Yeah. Quickest way is the portal to Uldum, and then it's a short flight.

    As a mage, I laugh at your sub-optimal means of transportation. Muehue!

    Can anyone confirm this?

    So I moved my Live character to Silithus, to Magni's Camp, then copyed it to the Beta, still in Silithus, and the Magni quest immediately popped up and let me grab the Heart. Now if this translates perfectly to the Live launch...

    Thank you for doing the work for science! If this is how it'll be on live (which I'll assume), I will park my characters at Magni before I go to bed on Tuesday. :3
