Around Azeroth: The Deeprun deception
Reader Quigley, Gnome Engineer and Pearl Diver of the Nagrand server, was taking a trip on the Deeprun Tram and saw an opportunity for some fun. He explains that he "realised, whilst wearing my 'Deepdive Suit' (Helm and some leathers that look the part), there was an opportunity for a lush underwater scene. It all began when I noticed that certain mail gear had the same colour palette as the Helm, then came the matter of finding a suit. Found something suitably frumpy leather set.. voila! Diving Suit. [It] often causes passersby some pause when I trot out of the water."

Sharing your screenshot is as simple as e-mailing aroundazeroth@wow.com with a copy of your shot and a brief explanation of the scene. You could be featured here next!

*Applaud*
I am envious as to your ability to design such outfits.

how the devil does one get into the deep run tram water?
Barry Feb 4th 2008 10:40AM
I don't think he's in the water so much as he's creating the allusion by being right next to the glass. Many have tried to get into the tank and kill Nessy, but no one has furnished proof outside of a possibly photoshopped picture

Anyone else think it's weird that while Ironforge and Stormwind are north and south from each other, the deeprun tram runs east to west (well, according to the mini-map)?

I once heard it was originally planned to have the tram run from Darnassus to Ironforge.
that would make it near impossible to reach Stormwind for a lowbie Dwarf/gnome/Nelf though

you can't make it down there with the breathing helmet on? I didn't try when I had it for the quest in the marsh but after turning in the quest I was able to keep the helmet till I logged off. ( I kept wearing it when I turned in the quest)

Ive been inside the tram before.
The method that used to exist(Not sure if it does now) Was a marco to lag you inside it.

I guess a thousand mages have tried to blink inside the tank. Has anyone tried this?
Ryan Feb 4th 2008 11:13AM
I'm wondering if the old destroy hearthstone/auto-unstuck trick would work to that purpose.

I have a picture of my pet (hunter) glitched out riding through the water, whilst my toon is still on the tram. Used Eyes of the beast to get some nice shots.

ok stupid question....isn't Nessie in Loch Moden? If so, wouldn't the tank be the lake in Loch?

I've been inside the Nessy tank - albeit on a private server. The tank itself is disappointingly smaller and less interesting than it may seem once you've seen the layout of the tram map.

I had fun one day...I think they might have patched the way in by now.

BTW, mine (above) was on a live server.
