How to find and unlock different fast travel points and portals around Khaz Algar

Throughout Khaz Algar, the newest area added to World of Warcraft and the main setting for The War Within expansion, there are fast travel points that can be unlocked to make traversing through the new zones just a bit easier. These fast travel points have been found in three of the four new zones but in order to unlock them you’ll need to complete certain zone quests.

Here’s where to find each fast travel point and which quest you need to complete in order to unlock them!

Portals between Dornogol and Stormwind/Orgimmar

In the Foundation Hall of Dornogal are two separate portals that allow travel between Dornogal and Stormwind as well as Dornogal and Orgrimmar. Aside from Hearthstones, these are the fastest ways to travel to your faction’s capital city. Initially in The War Within, the Isle of Dorn and Dornogal are instanced as part of the zone story but this ends early on during the second zone questline Earthen Fissures, at which point both portals should appear.

Elevators between the Isle of Dorn and the Ringing Deeps

There are two fast travel elevators connecting the Isle of Dorn and the Ringing Deeps zones. The first elevator allows travel between Skolzgal Mill, located east of Dornogal, and Pillarstone Spire just south of Gundargaz. To unlock this elevator, you need to complete the Rust and Redemption quest which becomes available after completing The Ringing Deeps zone campaign quests. You can begin this quest by heading to the elevator shaft at Pillarstone Spire and interacting with the Rusted Lever.

A second elevator connects The Orecrag just west of Freywold Village to Opportunity Point in the southern section of the Ringing Deeps. This elevator unlocks after completing the Passage to the Ringing Deeps quest offered by the Oathsworn Earthen just outside of the Orecrag elevator shaft. This is an easy “pick up and turn in” quest but seems to only appear after completing Rust and Redemption.

Portal between Dornogal and Azj-Kahet

There is a two-way fast travel portal that connects the Weaver’s Lair to the Fissure area of Dornogal that unlocks naturally when you complete the second questline of the Azj-Kahet zone campaign, Plans Within Plans. You’ll use it at the beginning of the questline during the A Most Intriguing Invitation quest but it will become openly available once you finish What We Still Have.

An established fast travel point between the Isle of Dorn and Hallowfall hasn’t been found yet and we don’t know if one exists or if one will eventually unlock. Using The Coreway places you very close to the connecting point between The Ringing Deeps and Hallowfall, so it’s still an easy zone to get to without a fast travel point.
