Alliance players reach Auberdine in about 6 minutes from Stormwind. Horde players have no flight point in Darkshore, so they head for Bloodvenom Post and travel on from there. The steps below start at your capital's flight master and use the fastest mix of flights, boats and zeppelins in Forever's travel data.

Alliance: from Stormwind

  1. Walk from the Stormwind flight master to Stormwind Harbor (884 yards, about 2 minutes on foot).
  2. Take the boat from Stormwind Harbor to Auberdine. The ride takes about 1 minute, and one leaves about every 4 minutes.
  3. Walk from the Auberdine dock to the Auberdine flight master (437 yards, about 1 minute on foot).

About 6 minutes in all, counting the average wait for the boat.

Horde: from Orgrimmar

There's no Horde flight point in Darkshore. The closest Horde one on the map is Bloodvenom Post, Felwood, about 1,556 yards from Auberdine as the crow flies. The way in on foot can be longer, depending on the roads.

  1. Fly from Orgrimmar to Bloodvenom Post, about 4 minutes.
  2. Travel on into Darkshore on foot or mounted.

About 4 minutes to Bloodvenom Post.

Flight points in Darkshore

  • Auberdine: Alliance

Pick up the flight point the first time you arrive, so the next trip is a single flight.

Good to know

  • You can only fly to flight points you've already found. Talk to each flight master on the way once.
  • Boats and zeppelins went missing for long stretches in launch week, and Blizzard added temporary portals near most docks. See boat or zeppelin not coming.
  • The times are estimates. Flight times were measured in Classic and boat timings are modelled, so allow a minute or two either way.
  • The Shortest Path Forever add-on plans any route like this in game.
